...would be very much in keeping with the definition of General Education in as expressed in the report on General Education in a Free Society, i.e, ". . . that part of a student's education which looks first of all to his life as a responsible human being and citizen. Lionel Braham...
...sacrificing most of the audience appeal she could have produced with a few slips from the rigid interpretation. Codrie Hardwicke, on the other hand, has a part to be envied in Creon, although this is not to say that he fails in any way to do it justice. Horace Braham as the Chorus is worthy of mention for his fine delivery of a touchy role, as is George Mathews for his portrayal of the First Guard, the part that contains most of the injected parody of modern life, an anachronism devoutly to be abhorred...
...British aces still top any U.S. pilots. Last week R.A.F. Wing Commander J. R. D. Braham shot down his 28th German plane near Copenhagen and Wing Commander J. E. Johnson got his 28th over France.

U.S. aces had a chance to surpass any of these records, but Russian Major Alexander Pokryshkin's record...

She was still comparatively unknown in her native England, but that evening the Manhattan audience felt sure they were seeing the quintessence of Mayfair talent...
Yoslie Kalb is a sad story about a Jewish student (Horace Braham) who is seduced by the girl (Erin O'Brien-Moore ) whom a rabbi (Fritz Leiber) wants to marry and spends 15 years wandering about as Joe The Fool ("Yoshe Kalb"). Critics admired bits like a graveyard dance by an idiot girl and a candlelit trial of Joe The Fool for bigamy before 70 rabbis but found the rest dull, pompous, obscurely symbolical. After three nights. Mr. Frohman closed his first production in 22 years with an old man's sigh of dismay...
