With trembling heart I left
the town to journey up the

to park. In sore disgust, my

I kept crawling underneath, to

The Civic Repertory theater
luva I.eOallienne brought to its j
clientele, at the outset of its .third'
season, an adaptation of Moliere's;
play, "Io P. ourgeolso f lentil
liommc." This farce from the
French of 107 0 deals with the
would-be gentleman who, having
retired from i-hop-kecping. aspires
to social place. Jt is a shurp jest,
and probably one or the fir.st, at
the newly rich, and it has fine
stretches of comedy,
but some ofj
its 2est seemed to have been
lost;
in luck of subtlety.
