'TOBACCO HOAD' MISSED POINT. MINISTER SAYS Message Is Submerged in Profanity, Criticises Rev. T. J. Simpson. "Tobacco Road.'' th® play, is based on social and economic suffering that should scandalize the church, but the drama was handled so inexpertly that, the message it should hav® carried was lost in a gutter of unnecessary profanity. The Rev, T J Simpson gave this opinion of the play that last week completed a run at the English in his sermon yesterday at Washington Street Presbyterian Church. "I felt that I had been down in the mire, wallowing w r ith vile and senseless people. I loft the theater with a sense of shame as if I might be sneaking out of some disreputable place. The play would have been more convincing and more dramatic without the profanity. "The loud guffaws of the audience indicated portrayal of a desperately tragic social condition was not getting over. If it stirred the audience to a holy indignation against ignorance and economic injustice it would he justifiable, but I believe the play fails to do this. There is too much cheap comedy that throws the audience into spasms of vacant laughter.’’ Mr. Simpson said that the picture of economic and social suffering set forth in "Tobacco Road” was a true one, and that it is a shame to our "so-called Christian government.” "The church should rise up and demand of the state that conditions that make these people the victims of such tragic exploitation must be changed.” INDIANAPOLIS STUDENT SEEKS RHODES HONORS J.
