Louder, Please. So well has Playwright Norman Krasna, onetime office boy for the defunct New York Sunday World, observed the greased-lightning satires of Ring Lardner, George S. Kaufman and Charles MacArthur that none of these practitioners should be ashamed to set their names to Louder, Please.

Like loud Art ("the Great") Shires, last year's Washington and Chicago freak, Pitcher Dean self-consciously copies the manners of Author Ring Lardner's fictional rookie baseballers, causing his luggage to be emblazoned by complimentary legends and boasting "there ain't no one can touch me when I bear down."
