Revenge with Music (words & music by Howard Dietz & Arthur Schwartz; Selwyn & Franklin, producers). Given settings by Albert Johnson, costumes by Constance Ripley, dance ensembles by Michael Mordkin and orchestrations by Robert Russell Bennett, the Princeton Triangle Club could put on a show which could hold its own with Revenge with Music. An expensive production by four of the leading technicians of the musical stage is all that really distinguishes the book and music by Schwartz & Dietz from something which might have been turned out for the McCarter Theatre...
Lone Star Dietz has shaken up his first team lineup for the coming tussle with several of his erstwhile regulars being relegates to reserve roles. Cliff Battles, great ground-gaining halfback, Hank McPhail, fullback, and Pete Bausch, center, are the only regulars who are certain to answer the opening whistle against the pirates. Steve Hokuf, the crackerjack quarterback from Nebraska, who has been laid up with injuries, will be back in the starting backfield.

The sixth passer is the brilliant Pug Reniner of Northwestern one of the most widely known of modern football players and a great all-round...
While tall, dark, quiet-spoken Arthur Schwartz was taking a degree at Columbia Law School, he was also teaching English in Manhattan's High School of Commerce. Today he occasionally helps Partner Dietz with a fractious lyric. When he made enough money in Law to give it up, he became a composer. He dislikes all opera but Wagner, favors Strauss, Schumann, Brahms, Hoagie Carmichael. When he makes enough money from his music, he intends producing straight drama. He is now writing the music for a Dietz adaptation of The Three-Cornered...
