...Outcast" is as the program says, a "vital throbbing, human play." It is unpleasant in its strongest parts and there are few laughs to break the general denseness of the whole. But it presents in a vividly, graphic way, a question of importance to all. For this reason, and for the sake of Miss Ferguson's acting, if for no others, "Outcast" is a play which should be seen...

Neither eleven can boast a thoroughly veteran line-up. New material is to be seen on each side, and that being the case, the break of the game will undoubtedly rest largely on how well the two teams have been coached.

...sporting instinct and does become interested in ideas, he is apt to find that he has only drawn attention to his own precocity and won amused notice rather than respect. In spite of desire of instructors to get themselves over to the students, in spite of real effort to break down the 'class-consciousness' of teacher and student, the gulf between their attitudes is too fundamental to be easily bridged.
