...tragedy is swift. In twelve days the lusty Diomede, Grecian Lothario, has won her heart and soul. Only once before, in Helen, had woman proved so faithless, yet never was woman so, pathetic as Cressida. In the heat of her remorse for what she had done to Troilus she swears she will at least be faithful to her new lover...
...brilliant color of modern university life seems to be fading from a flaming crimson into the more delicate mauve of solidarity.

Lucrezia Bori, who sang Mignon last week kept merry an audience of 4,000, many of whom had been cradled...
...Broadway bedroom farce than to a gentle comedy of southern England.
