"Thunder Rock" is the kind of play that it does one good to see, a play that has few ideals. ofWe ai lose sight of the course of things now and then; we be come involved in "contemplating the navel," and we forget, that be fore us others have gone the same way, others have despaired, given up, or perhaps won, and this is the sort of drama that brings the pres ence of larger life into our lives, that tears us, if necessary, from self-centeredness, forces us, however little, to think in terms of the world instead of in the terms of "me." Froggue Greenville, as Charles ton, the cynical newspaperman - was thrown off in the first act bj his supporters, but gave through. out a well played interpretation - Hurrell Sanders, as Streeter, als< had first act trouble but redeemed himself thoroughly in the last act Carl Vines played Captain Joshua the man who knew he was dead with welcome ease; he seemed t< - he the old skipper himself, argu. - ing, philosophizing with the mar - who created him.

"Rain" is a great drama worthy of the finest acting, and some fine acting was seen by Columbia audi ences. The illusion of reali,ty so im portant in play-making was well established by the skillfully and appropriately done set, which created a world of heat and of falling torrents. The acting was greatly enhanced by this realism. Sadie Thompson, played by Ly sette Lowenstein, sought friends and amusement in the wretched Pago-Pago Inn; but she Iund her self fighting an unknown God that lived in the fanatical b'ain of the Rev. Mr. Davidson. Mrs. Lowen stein gave herself to the role, speaking all the cheapness, the mis ery, and the unconscious poetry of a human being in torment, with an emphasis that was perhaps a bit thick in parts, but wholly enjoy able. Graham Howard played the mis sionary, Davidson, with stinging reality. Beulah Dawson, as Mrs. Davidson, was unconvincing and halting except in the last scene, where she said her lines well. Clair Shadwell, as Trader Horn, came to life in nearly every scene, in an entirely satisfying manner. l)ick Breeland, as O'Hara, was adequate if a little awkward. D Ir. McPhail, played by C. P. Maclines, was restrained and neu tral ; Gwen Sanford, as Mrs. Mc Phail wvas acceptable. Joe Bishop, as Private Griggs, gave an enthu siastic performance.
