Lunts Shine

In Aged and Saucy Story,

‘Amphitryon 38' Is Full of Olympian Delights; to Be Repeated Tonight.

By JAMES THRASHER

This is to assure tonight's audience at English’s that they will find, in “Amphitryon 38,” a comedy that is Olympian in every sense of the word. From the moment, in the prolog, where Jupiter expresses himself as being “nostalgic for mortality,” until, at the end, when Mercury announces the forthcoming birth of Hercules and predicts that “posterity will gossip,” everything is sparkling delight. Just how much credit for this brilliant retelling of a rather naughty old legend should go to Jean Giraudoux, the author, and how much to S. N. Behrman, the “adapter,” is a matter for conjecture. But there is no denying the unmistakable contribution of Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne.

The Lunt “Touch”

The Lunts, besides starring in the piece, have conceived and supervised the production, the program

informs us. Everything partakes in a dazzling way of their theat-| rical instinct and experience.

Instead of dismissing the picture's

frame with a sentence at the end of | the review, let us give it a rightful, consideration. First of all, there is| the immediately startling and sub-! sequently hilarious spectacle of] Jupiter and his son Mercury in the| prolog, lolling upon a cloud in a| divine, heroic, impudent and plas-| ter-of-paris nudity. Within the play proper, every-| thing continues to delight—sets,| lighting and stunning costumes done | with a color sense of which only] the Lunts seem capable, somehow.| Not only is the production an ad-| mirable setting, but it is what the best production should be: An] actual part of the performance, with mass and lighting and movement and color enhancing every-} thing while they become a part of | the general pattern.

| | Excellent—as Usual |

As for the performance, it really beggars praise. If ever actors de- |

Lunt and Miss Fontanne. Here they are near the end of one of the most arduous tours attempted by any company (saving always “Tobacco Road”) for many years. They surely must be weary, and Mr. Lunt's health, it seems, is not of the best. Yet such is their art that they do the play with an apparent enjoyment that is irresistible. | Beneath the effervescence of their acting, or rather contributing to it,| bit by bit, is a wealth of detail.| Miss Fontanne's Alkmena becomes truly a woman to confound a god.! And Mr. Lunt’s Jupiter, now godlike and now pathetically baffled, is one to delight the hearts of mortal men. Anyone who has seen the Lunts knows, of course, their uncanny ability to light up a phrase, enhance a meaning, point a mood by the * orfect inflection or the artfully) placed pause. Every good actor has| this power in his bag of tricks, but] few can approach our present] visitors as vocal technicians. Then, too, the Lunts have sur-| rounded themselves with what amounts to a permanent acting! company. Old theatrical {friends like Richard Whorf, Sydney Green- | street and the rest have played with them so long and understand them so well that the result is an almost perfect ensemble.

| { Story Old, Relished

Perhaps all this is putting too little emphasis on the play. “Amphitryon” tells a story which con-| ceivably has been relished since a day when the narrator might] actually have feared Jupiter's wrath for his sauciness. M. Giraudoux has embellished | with a delicious Gallic wit this tale of Jupiter's peremptory passion, Alkmena’s fidelity and the stalwart Amphitryon’s cuckoldry. | The father of the gods, it seems] is fascinated by Amphitryon’s faith-| ful spouse. So he stirs up a war to send off the husband at the head! of his army, assumes Amphitryon’s| guise and visits Alkmena himself. | Since the god cannot bear to let his divinity remain cloaked beneath Amphitryon’s garments, Jupiter tries, in his subtle way, to be a bit impressive at breakfast the next] morning. Failing in every approach as a mortal, he decides to pay a visit in the usual way, duly an-| nounced by Mercury and entering with his accustomed fanfare of! thunder and lightning.

Amphitryon Sent Away |

From there on, Alkmena makes only one slip.

Nat W. Finston, head of the studio music department, has asked Mr. Barrymore to “sit in” and help compose the score for “On Borrowed Time.” Mr. Finston hopes to include in the score a bit of the song Mr. Barrymore composed for Ernestine Schumann-Heink, at her request. The public has never heard it, as the singer died before she had an opportunity to sing it. The song was set to a favorite poem of hers by Heinrich Heine. Up to now Mr. Barrymore's musical composing has been solely for his own amusement.

A DICTATORSHIP, CAPEHART SAYS

Ex-Governor and McHale Set Roosevelt Example, Republicans Told.

Times Special KOKOMO, April 18. —Paul V. MecNutt “originated radical ideals of the New Deal when the High Commissioner to the Philippines was Indiana Governor,” Homer Capehart, Indiana G. O. P. leader, charged at a Howard County Republican meeting here last night. Arch N. Bobbitt, State Republican chairman, speaking on the program with the host to last summer's Cornfield Conference, predicted Republican successes in the state and nation next year. “Maybe all this trouble started in Indiana,” Mr. Capehart declared after attacking New Deal policies. “At least it showed its ugly head out here before it did in Washington. Paul McNutt and Frank McHale set the example for President Roosevelt and his professors. They really taught them how to do it.

Puts McNutt First

“Maybe you think I am exaggerating, but Paul McNutt took over the governorship of this great state early in January, 1933, and formed the first American dictatorship while President Roosevelt did not take the oath to defend the Constitution until March, 1933. “Well, in February, 1933, the Indiana General Assembly adopted a resolution urging inflation of money or currency regulation and control of the price of commodities. “And in the same month that same legislature—which was so completely the property of McNutt and McHale that the legislators might as well have been home for all of the authority they had—passed another resolution urging Congress to limit every man’s earnings to 10 per cent above his actual living costs.” He charged that a phrase from the second resolution which he quoted as saying “unless all the parts that make up our society are brought under the complete control of the whole society,” means dictatorship.

Discusses Resolutions

Mr. Capehart said that the former Governor did not sign the resolutions because it is not necessary for a Governor to sign such memorials. Continuing his attack on the former Governor, who now is campaigning for the presidency, and Mr. McHale, Democratic national committeeman from Indiana, the speaker said that the Legislature which he charged them with controlling was the one which passed the Reorganization Act. He termed it “the Indiana dictatorship law.” Mr. Capehart, who has been mentioned as having Presidential aspirations, termed himself “a farmer, salesman and businessman” who “took no active part in politics until last year with the exception of contributing some money from time to time.” Mr. Bobbitt said that the election last year of a Secretary of State, seven Congressmen, 51 members of the lower house of the Legislature, 13 state senators and 72 of 100 Indiana Mayors, marked the greatest G. O. P. victory in the state since 1916. He said the victories were achieved because of a united party and that the erasing of factional differences within the party points to 1940 successes.

PIPE LINE PROJECT WITHDAWAL ASKED

WASHINGTON, April 18 (U. P). —Counsel for General Gas Pipe Line Co. asked the Federal Power Commission today for permission to withdraw an application for authority to construct an 880-mile pipe line from Kentucky to Indiana. The Commission made no immediate ruling. The request was made by Roy L. Bolstad, company attorney, after F. P. C. examiners Francis M. Durrance ruled against the company’s demand for confidential treatment of information regarding its supply of natural gas, financing and other data.
