Chronic bronchitis may develop if your cough, chest cold, or acute bronchitis is not treated and you cannot

VOICE from the Balcony

by FREMONT POWER

SOMERSET MAUGHAM OCCASIONALLY MAKES A pronounce-

ment as to his future.

He is not a man to leave the reader in the dark.

One recalls that in the preface of his recent collection of short

stories Mr. Maugham coldly he had written himself out. would be no more.

where he was only re-writing himself,

ture as Before.” As a writer, of course, from the end of his rope. Since the short story collection, there have followed his autobiography, “Strictly Perscnal,” and the account of his coming to America after the debacle of France. The title of that one. I believe, Now, according (o information, he is prematerial for Holly-

the

the last paring some wood.

n 5 2 Goodby to Drama BUT THE pronouncement we intended to write of in the first place was one that he made more than nine years ago. It was then that Mr. Maugham let it be publicly known that he had written his “last and final” With the production of “For Service Rendered,” first in London and then in America in April of 1933, the writer announced that the field of drama was no more for him. “After I'd written 24 of them.” he explained; 'I decided I'd written enough plays and could relax P 1 ay writing 1s much more strenuous and e X hausting than fiction. I's & great strain to ft every thing into the narrow lines of the stage—it No SR § takes great Mr. Maugham discipline and effort to see that there's never a dull moment. “You can't bore -anybody for an instant in a play—or they'll tell their friends not to buy tickets. But in a book you can bore their heads off and nobody seems to mind. Then you've got hundreds of pages to move around in.” Apparantly Mr. Maugham’s was a sincerely laid resolution, but the appearance of Cornelia Otis Skinner here next Thursday night at English’s is evidence of how it worked out, Briefly, it didn’t. When himself rather a novel that field and that's

An Author Yields THE NOVEL, “Theatre,” came to be a play in this manner: Guy Bolton approached the author

the from thought about

with the idea of dramatizing the |

novel—not a straight dramatiza-

tion, or even an adaptation, but | a play utilizing some of the book's | background, characters and situ- |

ations in a different story. Mr. Maugham’s answer was ho.

| He was done with such things.

He suggested tc Mr. Bolton that he write it alone and send him sections of the script as they were completed. This Mr. Bolton did, but as Mr. Maugham got inte the first arafts, he met a very alluring temptation. He could haraly resist writing in a line here, another there, a different scene some place else transpose a set of speeches fro here to there. Ang so it went until Mr. Maugham found himself hopelessly engaged via the mails in collaborating on a play. Perhaps Mr. Maugham was recalling another novel of his, Thompson.” John Colton took that one and wrote it into a great hit, “Rain,” and Mr. Maugham wasn't in on it. It could be that the author didn't want that to happen again. But for whatever erset Maugham's name on the theater programs as the co-author of a new play, and that is how it happened.
