‘Papa Is All
THE THEATER GUILD brought its undistinguished but somewhat amusing new comedy, “Papa Is All,” to English’s last night for a threeday run. It made for a fairly happy evening at the old opry house where something different is usually welcome. “Papa Is All” is a colloquialism in three acts, about a Simon Legree patriarch of the Pennsylvania Dutch country holding his wife,
son and daughter in bondage on the farm. Its outstanding features - appeared to be its quaint dialog, Jessie Royce Landis as mama and Robert Keith as papa. Outside of the fact that papa has a club foot and is a mean man whom mama married because she didn’t want to “go old maid,” one might find it difficult to figure out why papa does the things he does. What it adds up to is a mean papa story worth about a stick of
type under a Lancaster, Pa., date-
line. There are a number of mean papa stories and this is not the best of them.

papa, a stanch Mennonite, won't tolerate. Papa also frustrates the ambition of daughter Emma (Audria Lindley to sit up in the parlor with her young man, a sur= veyor. Aware that papa is uing them as farm drudges because he’s too tight to buy farm machinery, son and daughter decide to rebel, although Jake can’t quite stand up to the old man, mean cuss that he is. . 8 » ”
"Escapes to Movie
BUT EMMA runs away with her young man in his Ford car to a movie show in Lancaster and papa finds out. Is papa “spited!” He decides to shoot the surveyor so as to keep Emma on the farm, claiming his daughter has been ruined going to the movies with a surveyor. But everything turns out all right in she end, because papa shoots the surveyor, only it is the wreng surveyor, so papa gets hauled off to jail. Jake installs modern plumbing and a telephone and is free to continue his correspondence school course in aeronautical engineering, while daughter sits up with her young man in the parlor and mama goes to a party. The title, “Papa Is All,” means literally that papa is all gone, dead. Most of the comedy is made by dialect which sounds as though. Author Patterson Greene has a good ear for talk. The play is well-knit and chuck full of smart theatrical tricks. The only thing I missed somehow was the point. I wonder if it had one. ” » on HARD AT WORK on a musical version of the Lynn Riggs folk comedy, “Green Grow the Lilacs,” the Theater Guild has picked up a few more plays which may possibly reach this port of call. “The Russian People,” by the young Soviet playwright, Konstantin Simonov, is expected to go into rehearsal shortly under the direction of Harold Clurman. Two comedies also have been acquired. Ina Claire may appear in “Plans for Tomorrow” by Zoe Adkins. The other is “Respectfully Yours” by Peggy Lamson.
“Papa Is All,” a Pennsylvania Dutch com in three acts by Patterson Greene, presented at English’s Nov. 2, 3 and 4, by the Theater Guild.

SPANISH GONSULAR AID TO AXIS DENIED
MADRID, Nov. 3 (U. P.).—The Spanish foreign office yesterday issued a sharp denial of reports said to have circulated “in some American countries” that Spanish diplomatic .and consular personnel had “acted in the service of foreign powers.” The foreign office statement charged that a “persistent campaign” has been waged for some months against the Spanish diplomatic service. It noted that this campaign had been especially vigorous since the entry of Japan into the war, “The fact is that we have assumed the protection of the. interests of Germany, Italy and Japan in some countries which have broken off . relations with them,” the foreign office said.
