Other thoughtful citizens deplored. U. S. visitors were in a ferment of indignation. For, despite many a protest, Vancouver's loud evening Sun ("Vancouver's most useful institution") was publishing serially The Strange Death of President Harding by onetime Federal Sleuth Gaston B. Means (TIME, March 31). The U. S. Consul General was besieged with outraged demands for formal action. One Californian wired to Senator Hiram Johnson urging "proper protest against . . . insult."

Then her firstborn, Unex (so named because he was unexpectedly born in the middle of a road), dies and in a loud wail, as the curtain falls, Sister Mary finally makes known her contrition. Ethel Barrymore Colt, as one of Sister Mary's daughters, makes four appearances, speaks a few lines in the last...
Pressing Business. This is a Jewish-Irish show with the scene laid in a dry-cleaning establishment owned by two Hebrews. The people address each other in loud low-comedy style. They spray cleaning fluid at one another, punctuate much of their conversation with a vulgar oral noise known variously as "the bird," "the Bronx cheer," "the Chinese kiss...
