SEYMOUR NEW YORK Into the private life of an Uncle Tom's Cabin troupe stranded in Kansas, the dressing room of a boxing cham ion and the city room of a morn ing newspaper. New York theat er audiences were permitted to peer on successive nights a a hu mid August waned. "Eva the Fifth." by Kenyon Nicholson: "Ringside." by Ed ward Para mo re. Jr., Hyatt Daab and George Abbott: and "Gentle men of the Press." by Ward Morehouse, brought to Broadway a triumvirate of plays among which the critics found a great deal of amiable enjoyment and at least one probable hit. John Golden, co-producer of the comedy drama of the Tom shows, is fond of digits. They served him as well in the titles of "Seventh Heaven," Three Wise Fools," Two Girls Wanted" and "Four Walls," sponsored to his profit in seasons past. He deemed the charm worth trying again In "Eva the Fifth," in which Nicholson has told an engaging story of Hattie nad Oriole Hart ley, fourth and fifth respectively. of the Hartley family to play Lit tle Eva. With Claiborne Foster as Har riet Hartley, the play trips brigbjtly through the humorous vicissitudes of the trouper. It re sorts neither to profundity nor profanity, thus helping to make a balanced ration of a season's thea trical fare which promsied plenty of both. The Ring and the Bookie Tex Rlckard may yet have the theater to blame, as well as the radio, for keeping boxing fans out of his arena. For in "Ringside" they may see two rounds of boxing on the stage for the purported lightweight championship of the world, and in "The Big Fight." on its way to a theater Just next door to the new Gene Buck pro duction, they may presently ob serve three rounds of fisticuffing for the heavyweight crown, with Jack Dempsey doing the mauling. Both theaters are within half a dozen blocks of Madison Square Garden, but Rickard. apparently unworried, le dthe applause at the opening of "Ringside" when Bob by Murray confounded the gam bler who had paid him $100,000 to throw the fight for the lightweight title, decided to shoot square with the dad who was his manager, and went into the ring to knock out Andy McCabe I two rounds. The behind-the-scenes drama ef pugilism contained, incidentally, a broad burlesque of the radio fight announcers, and its interest was sustained by the work of Richard Tabor as the boxer, John Meehan as his parent, Robert Gleckler as the fight fixer and Sauzanne Caubaye in the role of sireh. Critics accorded it a gen erally enthusiastic welcome. A cross-section of newspaper life was revealed by Ward More house, formerly an Atlanta news paperman and now of Tbe New York Sun, in "Gentlemen of the Press". It is a more recognizable picture than that contained in "The Front Page" similar in theme and its reent predecessor, with which it Inevitably invites comparison for it does not sub ordinate its newspaper background to rapid-fire melodrama as does the Hecht-MacArthur play. Its climaxes were regarded dv first-night commentators as too little above the normal level of Its action to make it a greatly excit ing play, but its picture of metro politan newspapermen was con ceded to be deftly and vividly sketched. John Cromwell, in its principal role, was the newspaper man who left his job for a more lucrative post as a press agent, only to find himself drawn back to the city oom. Two other plays came In during the week: "The Money Leixier." trie dand ahandoned by another producer several seasons ago, and "Caravan," a melodrama of gypsy life. Neither was hailed as a work of importance. The Busy Mr. Abbott George Abbott, who shared in the authorship of "Coquette." tbe Helen Hayes vehicle of last sea son which is still playing on Broadway, had a stake in two of the weeks plays '"Gentlemen -af the Press." which he directed, and "Ringside." which he directed and helped to write. It is not often that a director has three plays running simultaneously; and even more Infrequently doee he find his name on two theater programs in a single week. His success has brought him a contract as a mo tion picture director which is ex- pected to take him to Hollywood soon after the first of tbe year. The Turk is now described a the most henpecked of husbands. Thus his claim to being fully civ ilized is estabffshed , beyond ques tion. New York Evening Post.
