Maybe he can repeat t'liu procedure . with this. latest'-.-'.at-.: tempt, but present prospects are, that jt will fall a victim of a condition thai is not completely relevant to the ^^padeS out.. "Irt other seasons ' vould probably resi.-te.r as acceptable' light: entertainment but with the current Broadway liouse shortase, due to present andK incom- ing solid hits, this one may be shunt- ed aside in' favor of something made of sterner stuff. It's not that the play doesn't pos- fe.ss amusement values—it does. Fol- 6wing a two-day breakin stand in Hartford.' which reportedly labelled the piece . Hopeless, play showed enough improvement here to hope for bettering, chances with added road workout. There are a number of very funny lines and. despite, a weak script, overall audience re- j action is of having spent at least a pleasant, "if not ah outstanding, eve- ning in the theatre. It's one pi those things vou forget the minute the cur- tain is down but, meantime, yoy has e enioved a string of chuckles.' Story is a bit of : satirical fluff con-; oerning a summer camp for girls. The fem'mev director of the . spot. Aunt Bessie Barron, has a fund of pungent cracks about the operation of such a'layout. Thread of yarn lias a mysterious adolescent arriving in gamp one night with a bundle of cash 'to pay for .her keep.. It's against the. rules to take in anyone, without con- tacting their parents first, but, the sight of the. long green is too much for Aunt Bessie, SO she lets down tfic bars. Kid'turns out to be a fugitive from, a morals trial, and vvhen. a.big- time newspaper, publisher.Who is in camp to sec his young daughter, gets hep lo the situation, he starts to. blow the story wide open. However, the camp stuff, plus the lawyer who had planted the kid there, frames, the publisher into forgetting about giv- . fiig the place'.a black eye. and' that s .t.l',..i ,.,..,t.+ i(i>liat.. \\\a final flll'tain. Tiie erix were sharply divided on the merits' of "Dark Hammock,'' but this- new Meyer Davis-Sam. ~H.

The authors are M.uy On and Reginald Denham, who last .year U i ned out avb.o, wallop for Davis in the comedy about juvenile es- | ui anyi Wallllower.-,' The present one is of a quite different genre, but equally workmanlike: and exhibiting same showmanship, which is. not surprising, as one author (Miss Ori > is a veteran actress and other is a skilled director. This .one ' can best be pigeonhojed . as having some of the out-and-out "whodunit" trails of "Ten Little Indians" and some of the.' psychological' overtones of "The Two Mis Carrolls " The blend is much smoother' and more mellow than might be imagined, • Scene of "Hammock" is Florida. | and title comes from a name given bv natives. tO a kind of plain or flat ai ea sometimes rising abruptly . .out of -:the Everglades country.
