...Little's acting was remarkable for its restraint and his understanding of the part. He never got "out of character" and, save in the drilling scene, he did not over-act. Mr. Williams, as Peer, the Deacon, and Mr. Packard, as the bailiff, showed real talent and never failed to make the most of their opportunities. Mr. Skinner was wholly delightful as Erasmus's younger brother. One could go on through the whole cast-- the acting was good throughout.

This Bolshevik advance agent commits the crowning folly of his clown-like career by politely declining the aid of the Hasty Pudding's marked dramatic talent. Although our faith in the efficiency of Bolshevik methods is badly shaken by this incident, we nevertheless still wish to be convented if possible and we are pleased by the announcement, that in spite of the unknown Bolshevik's veiled insinuation as to the bourgeois character of the Pudding...
