...criticism, however, might be questioned. A one act play, "The Ingrate," had better been a story. As it is the excessive detail and labelling of characters detract from the effectiveness of the incident. The ending just misses being of exceptional power.

At the tackles, Hogan and Kinney have been used more, perhaps, than any of the others in carrying the ball. Their excellent work has been particularly noticeable in the tackle-back...
