VOICE from the Balouny ‘by FREMONT POWER
THE TELEGRAM READ:
haps millions of Americans through her stage and radio work, Miss Hayes’ name alone is enough to bring the disciples flocking to English’s box office. A mere announcement that she was to appear would be about all that’s necessary to secure the financial success of “Candle in the Wind” here. But there are, in addition, several other items that supply added attraction. For one thing, the playwright is Maxwell Anderson, who for the time being has abandoned blank verse. For another, the director is Mr. Lunt, who, with Lynn Fontanne, is one of the most admired actors in the land. Seldom does a director’s name help “sell” a play in these parts, put “Candle in the Wind” is an exception. 2 2 o
Not His First Time
IT SHOULD not be assumed, however, that this is Mr. Lunt’s
first directorial attempt. He performed in a similar capacity two years ago, staging Robert E. Sherwood’s “There Shall Be No Night.” In that one, however, he and Miss Fontanne had the principal roles. The play opening here tomorrow is the first time that Mr. Lunt has directed a company and then quietly taken his place in the audience to see how it all came out. Mr. Lunt’s approach to the problems of direction is naturally, via his background as an actor. Naturally, he has the actor’s acute sense not only of the most desirable effects to be made, but also of the actor's problem in achieving them. He knows the necessity for split-second pauses, for the slightest speeding up or retarding, for the right gesture here or the deletion of the wrong gesture there. And because of his “actor’s ear,” Mr. Lant was able to make suggestions to Mr. Anderson in the cutting or addition of lines in order to simplify what otherwise would have been awkward problems of speech.
o 8 8
Of the Future
MR. LUNT likes to direct plays. There is no doubt about that. In fact, there may be a day when Mr. Lunt is known as a director, not an actor. Although at present he and Miss Fontanne hold undisputed title of America’s most celebrated acting couple, they came to the conclusion some time ago that such popularity would not last forever. Astute actors that they are—and therefore different from many— they know full well that there is an inevitable time when g person of the stage begins to fade. Such a realization might pitch a lesser man into the depths of mental depression. But not Mr. Lunt. If it were economically practical, his agent, William Fields, informs us, Mr. Lunt would be willing to quit the stage this very day. Under the circumstances, however, he and Miss Fontanne are waiting patiently at the Wisconsin farm until a playwright presents them a script that catches their eye and imagination. ” = 2
The Play
MR. LUNT will not be visible to anyone in the audience tomorrow night, however, and so there should be a few words about Mr, Anderson’s play itself.
“DEAR TONY—I am mighty proud of you. Be sure to click the door in Act IL.” It was the opening night of “Candle in the Wind” last fall. " was Tonio Selwart, who plays the role of a young Nazi lieutenant. The sender of the telegram was Alfred Lunt. He had directed the play and so naturally he was anxious that all the meticulous details of rehearsal be carried out in the first performance. incident appears as a’ key to the atmosphere surrounding this play. “Candle in the Wind” opens a three-day engagement tomorrow night on English’s stage and Helen Hayes is the star.

An idol of per-

Sponsored jointly by the Theatre Guild and the Playwrights’ Company, “Candle in the Wind” has three stage settings, designed by Jo Mielziner, The entire action occurs in Occupied France over a period of 18 months commencing in June, 1940.
Miss Hayes has the role of an American actress trapped in Paris by the Nazi invasion. She is in love with a French journalist and naval officer who survived Dunkirk only to fall into the hands of the Germans. Louis Borell has this leading role opposite the star. The action centers around the actress’ attempt to have her sweetheart freed from a concentration camp. John Wengraf and the aforementioned Mr, Selwart are Nazi officers; Lotte Lenya is a wistful
a gusty actress companion of the heroine. Also in the cast of about 3C are Philip White, Joseph Wiseman, Robert Harrison, Benedict MacQuarrie, Harro Meller, Mario Gang, Michelette Burani and Guy Monypenny. It has been reported that in her last tour of the Middle West, Miss Hayes was shocked by the strong feeling of isolation. (That, of course, was before Dec. 7, last.) “Candle in the Wind” is Miss Hayes” argument against such an attitude.

Explain 'Four Aces,’ Action Film at Ambassador
“Four Aces,” an official U. S. Signal Corps film made during action of the first World War, will open
run through Sunday. As commentator there will be C. K. Slack, a Wisconsin farm boy who became perhaps the most decorated American private of the war. He also will make ag short speech from the Ambassador stage before each showing of the film. Mr. Slack said the movie, which runs an hour and five minutes, shows many Indiana men in action during the Chateau Thierry, St. Mihiel and Argonne battles.
Married Buddy’s Sister After the war, Mr. Slack married
his buddy's sister and now operates a resort the climactic days of the Meuse-
in Cable, Wis. During Argonne battle, Mr. Slack captured by himself 10 Germans and two machine guns and saved his regiment from the danger of being wiped out. For this he received the Congressional Medal of Honor. He is one of the 30 men still living out of the 100 who were so decorated for their heroic action during the first war. Mr. Slack also was decorated twice with the French Croix de Guerre with palms for rescuing wounded buddies from “no man’s land.”
Declined Commission
For such valor, Mr. Slack was offered an officer's commission, but he declined, he explained, because acceptance would have entailed post-war service. He was eager to return to civilian life. The pictures which have been edited into “Four Aces” — soldier, sailor, marine and coast guardsman —were loaned to Mr. Slack by the
