Contrasting Types Az a stage foil to Miss Manners’ hlonde glamour, Miss Browne has a chestnut-haired, sultry vivacity| which I find increasingly fascin-| ating. She can walk demurely or| gashay sexily. She has a remarkable bright-eyed way of seeming compellingly present and tantalizingly ahsent, like Beatrice ‘Lillie, who gives her all for each spectator but belongs to none. With such talent, Miss Browne still] needs, I think, some help In voice management, especially as regards microphones, 80 as to avoid oceasional shrillness that belies the real beauty of her tones. Mr. Moore last night was at his hest in “The Surrey With the) Fringe.” etc, from “Oklahoma!” There he did not attempt to execute what the bhrasshats would call a Pinza movement, as he unfortunately tried in “Some Enchanted Evening,” with distress-’ ing vibrato.
