...suppose this criticism was answered in a similar vein. One might say here is a mayor caught in a ticklish, political situation. He knows that, in addition to the ancient hostility of the town to the gown, there has been growing up a rather wide-spread resentment in Cambridge be the antics of a few New Era professors, and that he is very likely to be the recipient in the coming election of many a vocal brickbat aimed at the subrosa employment of these Messiahs. He well knows that his irrelevant answer to your editorial will be considered...
...Within a few moments after the solution of trypan-blue, injected intravenously, enters the vein of a patient," explained Dr. Heiser last week, "the surface lesions of leprosy become clearly outlined, much as if they were painted in blue on the skin.

O'Neill had failed to pick the "psychological moment" to present his tragedy, so now we have him in a lighter vein. New York has not been very pleased with the attempt, but Boston should have a chance to judge for itself before the end of the season...
...gambler friend (Leo Carillo) to foil the Hobarts by buying a piece of the show himself. He promptly loses it in a crap game and Sport Powell (Herbert Rawlinson), who wins it, unnerves Dwight by trying to make a pretty chorus girl (Mary Brian) the leading lady. A tiny vein of originality can be detected in the conclusion. Sport Powell gallantly gives the show to his chorus girl who, instead of playing the lead, gives the show back to Dwight, because she loves him. Then comes "Dusty Shoes...
