George M. Cohan’s Brilliant Acting, Sparkles in O’Neill’s ‘Ah, Wilderness' BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

EORGE M. COHAN and Eugene J O'Neill form an unbeatable combination in the production. Ah. Wilderness.” which played a oneday stand at English s yesterday. Mr. Cohan reached great heights

in the role of Nat Miller, owner of a small town newspa pe r. in Mr O Neill's sparkling comedy. His performance brought tears and laughs from the audience in great abundance. It was exquisite acting in a comedy of human nature which never has been surpassed. Mr.

O Hk

George ( ohan

Cohan, with his song and dance tradition. made Nat Miller come to life, and his work in this production will .linger long in the memories of citystage lovers. Those who saw "Ah. Wilderness” yesterday will remember the great ea.se with which Mr. Cohan brought to life the character of Nat Miller Mr. Cohan took his time, as d-d every member of the company, in developing this story of youth of another day. In a nutshell, the story of “Ah. Wilderness” is just a father talking to Ins son Richard about drink and women. Author O'Neill has not placed this lecture in the woodshed but in the living room of Miller's home in a small town. It is a story of a youth finding himself and being honest with dad. mother and himself. As to the acting the two greatest performances I have seen on the stage are Mr. Cohan in "Ah. Wilderness” and Sarah Bernhardt in •Camille.” The proof of Mr Cohan's greatness is the dinner table scene where he comes home a little tipsy with Sid Davis, related to the family, after a Fourth of July "beer” picnic. Responding to the star in this scene are Jean Adair as Nat'r. wife; Don Shelton as another son; Elisha Cook Jr. as the son who read wild” books and wilder poetry and made love to one good girl and a bad one; Edith Emerson as the giggling daughter; Freddie Stange as Tommy, the innocent son; Catherine Proctor as Lily Miller. Nat's sister, and Joseph Allen as Sid Davis. This is the greatest American scene I have encountered upon the stage. At the end of the play. Mr. Cohan. Jean Adair and Mr. Cook catch the hearts of every one present with the honesty of emotion. After the performance. Mr. Cohan in his dressing room said of the movies—“l will never walk under a studio arch again'in Hollywood. I don't like their language. I don l like the way they do things. I don't like the way they think. And they think no more of me.” lie said that the Little Theater <which is the Civic here is the only training ground for the future of the stage. Stock companies are out. he asserted. When asked if he would make another movie, Mr. Cohan said yes. but that it would not be done in Hollywood. He said he would soon return to the radio after this tour ends late in March. "One must give all of his time to radio,” hr said. "It is too important. The audience is too big to halfheartedly work at it.“ Whiie all of this was going on, Mr. Cohan found time to be interviewed by a girl reporter from the Technical High School paper. "I have daughters.” he told her. “I wish they would have done just what you are doing.” That is George M. Cohan on the stage and as himself. nan

Mr. Christiansen, a Norwegian once decorated by his king as a Knight of the Order of St. Olaf. dors strange things with the 60 i voices in his choir. Stripped of their individual otrsonality. the singers form a human vocal organ, capable of the almost uncanny crescendos and diminuendos. and yet possessing a human quality which does not brand their singing as purely a technical achievement. Not once during a concert number did any choir member fail to focus absolute attention on Mr. Christiansen. His fingers seemed to control the choral group as if unseen puppet strings were attached to the voices of each singer. It was this direction, the command of their leader, which made the singing of the choir a resounding success. Several of the numbers sung were written by Mr. Christiansen. Angels Made An Arbor,” a mellow, sofe-spoken melody was one of the outstanding of the concert numbers and “Sing Ye To The Lord.” a most intricate piece of choral composition was remarkably performed by the singers. Mr. Christiansen does everything possible to produce the utmost in volume and concerted melody. He rearranges the groups of voices often during the concert in order to
