Much credit Is due Mrs. Hamil ton Patton and her able committee, consisting of members of the Wo man's association, Crater Lake Guild and the Christian Endeavor. Margaret Sullavan at Craterian Is a woman's love more lasting than a man's What of the man who love and forgets? Should a, woman keep silent when her happiness Is at stake? In the modem view, need there be any stigma on the unwed mother? These questions, and many others, are prompted by the story of "Only Yesterday," which open a three-day engagement at the Craterian theater today. Margaret Sullavan, Jcthn Boles, Reginald Denny, Edna May Oliver and approximately 00 other featured play ers whose names are well known to theatergoers have leading roles. "Only Yesterday" was directed by the same man who brought "Back Street" to the screen and, as In the former pic ture, the same beauty of expression and poignancy of emotion Is very evident. Margaret Sullavan, here playing her initial role In films, offers a por trayal which for Its restraint, Its intelligence and general appeal would be difficult to match. Especially noteworthy Is her work since the role held great danger of over-playing, a danger which Miss Sullavan very competently avoided.
