Stage Manager P. J. Carolan, in playing Fluther Good, presents an ordinary, ignorant, proud Dublin tenement-dweller with splendid vividness. M. J. Dolan is Uncle Peter Flynn, and amiable old man made the pathetic butt of a Socialist's humor. That socialist, played by Denis O'Dea, is reduced to pillaging and playing cards, nervously squatting on the floor of an attic, because he will not participate in a futile rebellion.

Just how much injury he inflicted on the people of Boston during his last tenure of office will never be accurately known, for immediately following it he became Governor and gained control of the Finance Committee which was just beginning to investigate the Dolan case and one or two other irregularities that the Honorable Mayor had left behind...

Phil Dolan, the third in a succession of hoofing Dolans, emerges as a very aesthetic music professor in a WPA extension university, but his basic urge for nimble footing of the jazzier sort will not be sublimated. With one of his pupils he creates a modern ballet which in a burst of inspiration they entitle "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue." In attempting...
