NEW YORK.—Last week’s lone venture, something called “Calico Wedding,” was unveiled at the National Theatre the other night by Lester Meyer and Richard Myers and proved to be a turkey of the purest ray. It presented, for one thing, Miss Grete Mosheim, a lady from the arty purlieus of Vienna, who chewed more scenery per line than even Mr. Oscar Karlweis, and that < puts them into the running with the carpet-chewing fuehrer. Mr. - Karlweis, as you know, plays a : role called Jacobowsky in a play called “Jacobowsky and the Colonel,” and if it weren’t for the , fact that Mr. Louis Calhern plays the military gentleman, the play ' could easily have been called “Jacobowsky.” ’ But to get back to Miss Mos heim: She’s the wife of a budding advertising man who apparently started at the bottom of the ladder with a salary of ten thousand dollars a year, cooking up slogans for a certain body building Abercrombie. He appeared to be doing okay when the war came along and he chipped in. As a captain in the wastes of the frozen north, he wonders what one might do and think about one’s wife’s loyalty, so to speak, and tiie subject causes him considerable worry. He confides this to his lieutenant pal and the latter warns him that that way lies madness. So, as the author of “Calico Wedding,” Mr. Sheridan | Gibney, might have said,,confession being good for the soul, the captain confesses and tells his story, which turns out to be a three-act flashback. < It appears that in a beglamored moment the captain met a lady of Dutch descent, fell in love with her and plucked her from the ■ midst of a quartet of ardent admirers. On the occasion of their I second wedding anniversary the i lady, now rather lorn by the fact that her husband pays more ati tent ion to the Abercrombie keepI fit system than to her charming I person, decides to toss a party | j celebrating the calico- wedding— j or maybe you’re one of those | people who know that the second I anniversary is calico. The gim-’ prick in this bingo is that she had i invited none hut the quartet of | flags, just tq.putji?h the husband j for- his neglect. Apparently the lady thought that Li having the I I e •

four wolves as guests, it would be her night to howl. Fate, in the form of an incredible arctic (or is it antarctic?) explorer intervenes. Also the fiancee of one of the wolves brings two other personable young things along and crashes the gate. And as the olive in this tasty cocktail, three of the wolves bring along the übiquitous, drunken and blonde pickup ! girl. Here, as one could easily discern with only a half-shut eye, is a situation. Mr. Gibney exploits it to the full. The explorer plays Lancelot and Guinevere with the lady of the house, being, for some inex- > plicable reason, left quite alone • with her. The husband, coming home about one in the morning, hears screams issuing from the | bedroom but judges the noise to be caused by nothing more im- i moral than a nightmare, decides * to take his boss’ advice and cure his wife by sleeping at the club. Well, folks, the cosy little situation is untangled the next day. The explorer vanishes and is found again. The wolves disappear, the pretty girls, having flounced away, remain wherever pretty girls disport themselves offstage, and everything is as happy, one assumes, as the proverbial calico wedding bell. If this somewhat hectic resume of “Calico Wedding” /eaves you with an impulse to wonder why it ever had been perpetrated, yoti will find your reporter in completes! agreement with you. Mr. Gibney’s staging was of a piece with his writing. Miss Mosheim’s sometimes baffling acting may have had its source in both. But in a tete-a-tete with one of the wolves, played by Mr. Jerome P. Thor, one could think nothing more was taking place than a slide-trombone duet played by two enthusiastic musicians tied together with rope. Mr. William Post did as much as he was able with the role of the captain, and Mr. Forest Orr | struggled manfully with the role iof Abercrombie. Mary Sargent i was notably harried as the latter’s wife. \Ve can’t recommend ‘ “Calico Wedding” as a cure for i the curfew, but perhaps it I wouldn t mah* much difference I anyway. Ey Uptime you read | this it may haw* itined much I better plays in the warehouse.
