Their final solution mixed with a dash of sparkling comedy gives a very unusual effect and the play ends in such a flourish of activity that leaves them wondering if they really know what did happen.

In retaliation, Mr. Steph. an, with glum countenance, could only reply that "if I have failed to educate my daughter, it's my mis take--it is awfully difficult being a parent these days." On questioning about the scenario, Nir. Stephan described it as an unauthorized and unauthentic translation of an old French play; and explained that production might include legal difficulties as regards copyright. libel, and plagar ism-the complete responsibilit-y of which would lie with Christopher sen. In any event, the transaction would have to he secret, for there is no reason for both producer and translator to be confined in padded cell. In addition, the translator wishes to point out that in order for this potential hit to be a rightful sue cess, it would have to be prodluced h. the translator for that certain v needed French finesse, which brings up the question of Nordic or Medir terranefan literary superiority. In pat ting, Mr. Christopersen asked the scribe to act as go-he tween in advising the other that if he: w:r.tz to be stuffy about it, he can keep his old play, and re tain his stubborn pride. Christoph. ersen accuses Stephan of setting the price on the basis of $1 for the play, and $1 for each of the 49 murders committed in the one act script. lie further stated that if the play is as bloody as the seller describes, and he can take his sticky fingers off of it for a while, the potentinl producer would he will ing to talk to him as a gentleman and attempt to meet satisfactory terms. Mr. Stephan said only in re taliation. "with some people it is impossible to talk like a gentle ma n." Mr. Christophersen started to make certain remarks about the character of the people involved in the transaction, hut restrained himself for fear- of causing a French revolution. but he did remark that soon he p)lans on going to that dlen of iniquity, called an office, filled with all forms of degradation, to tell the esteemed aulhor what he thinks of him, and will take along a delegation of ITin iversit y Players for protection. Mr. Stephan concedes to Mr. Christopher'sen on the basis of ath letic prowess only -for Mr. Steph an said of Mr. C., that he is the only man alive who (can scrape pennies from the high hurdles with the sag of his trousers, without jarring the hurdles themselv.es; hut that there Is absolutely' no intel lectual comparison.
