Directed by Professor Angus Bow mer. the polish of the play Indicated much hard work In Ironing out every tiny flaw, and the group of students handled their parts like profession als. Particularly clever In her presenta tion waa MTss violet Walters, as Ju dith Bliss, the mother of a slightly mad family. The part was a difficult one. but Mlsa waltera handled It beautifully. She has evidently done a great deal of dramatic work. The work of Miss Helen Edmlston, of this city, was also outstanding, as was that of Donald Darnellle. also of Med ford. The story, like all coward plays, is light and fast. It deals with the an tics of the Bliss family, mother, father, daughter and son. They each Invite a week-end guest to their home, much to the displeasure of the other three members of the family After the arrival of the guests, the whole family Ignores them, and some wildly funny situations arise. Ron ert Stedman, as sandy Tyrell. taking the role of an embarrassed young rrtan. Is swell. One csn almost sec him blush I Every student In the production was well cast, all the members of the Bliss family, the week-end guests, and the maid. Much credit must also be glvep to the Play production class of the school, who constructed the set. The usual threatening collapse of the walla when the doors were closing being entirely absent. While the ploy was a light com edy, with no very heavy dramatic stuff, it waa of the type that always pleases the audience, my favorite kind of play. It Is unfortunate that it Is not to be given In this city, for the clever performance was really a rare treat. Characters sorel Bliss Helen Edinlston Simon Bliss ... Marlon Frost ci.

The film adapta- : tton of this masterpiece starts three-day engagement at the Rial to theatre tomorrow with George O'Brien in the starring role. Universal appeal Is what both book and ptcture possess. The ster eotyped version of the West aa peo pled by desert rats lurking through the sage brush of the dry lands Is abandoned; In place is a vibrant story of modern youth Involved in a vital romance. The setting Is an Arizona ranch, to which comes a mysterious east erner, short of money, obviously the gentlemsn, but silent on his past. He Is befriended by a hardened westerner, changes from playboy to a rugged "man's man." and finds himself In the dllemna of his life time when he realizes that his best friend and himself are rivals for the hand of the same girl. Before turning to writing, Harold Bell Wright knew the typical Amer ican man and woman aa few others knew him. Into "When A Man's A Man" he poured his rich knowledge of the West and of the conflicts and romance that arise, far from urban artificialities. Around George O'Brien are feat ured Dorothy Wilson and Paul Kelly, in a cast composed of Harry Woods. Jimmy Butler, Richard Carlisle. Clarence Wilson and Edgar Norton.
