WASHINGTON Phone Main 9637 ! { J) i AMUSEMENTS NATIONAL—“The Goose Hangs High.” Another of those delightful enter tainments that are being featured at the National Theater this Summer by the National Theater Players, Lewis Beach's wholesome domestic comedy, “The Goose Hangs High,” was added to the season's list of successes last evening. “The Goose Hangs High” Is one of those chapters from real life where the smile has a complement in the tear and where laughter is sometimes checked by pathos. It concerns a devoted father and mother who have never counted the many sacrifices made for their children to properly educate them and to maintain them in the station of life to which their parents were accustomed. There were those, including a dear old grandma, who felt that the children had been spoiled, that they were selfish and inconsiderate and that they had contracted habits that in our own day are causing many a youngster to be sharply scored by those who imagine they were raised with a higher moral code. When the crash came, however, and the father, pushed by insult, resigned his po sition, the whole means whereby the family was supported, and even grandma refused to help because she had her own ideas of what was good for the spoiled children, the young sters themselves, aroused to a sense of the situation, came nobly and won derfully to the rescue and made even those who had thought the worst of them love them. It is just the kind of play that justifies the present day optimist arid establishes beyond the peradventure of a doubt that while all that- glitters may not be gold, so also all that may bear a semblance to wickedness is not wicked after all. The players put their hearts with their talents into this tine little drama and the laughter and applause of a very large audience clearly establish ed that they had scored a pleasant measure of success. J. Glynn Macfarlane, the new lead ing man, appeared not in the role of an adoring young lover, but as a lover, just the same, of a lovable wife and children that preserved his love. Miss Kathryn Givney scored ji per sonal success as the mother, inci dentally displaying emotional powers of real merit, while Lillian Dean added to her list of character suc cesses as the dear old sensible grandma. Perhaps the two that seemed to win the highest honors in the performance were Dorothy Tier ney and William Phelps, who made an admirable pair of snappy twins that won a complete vindication in the play.

Bomh-Riddled Veteran Faces 41st Operation With Unwavering Hope 4 After a Couple of Dozen More, They’ll Be Able to Start Work in Earnest Says Man Coming to Walter Reed Hospital. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 28. —Frank Has senberger was preparing today for his forty-first operation in the last seven years. Army surgeons, determined to put Hassenberger together again so that he looks and feels as he did be fore he was torn almost to pieces in France seven years ago, will operate on him again in the Walter Reed Hospital in Washington next week. Hassenberger enlisted in the Regu lar Army and was one of the first men sent to France. On September 28, 1918, the section of trench in which he was stationed was bombed by German airplanes and he was taken to a first aid station half-blinded and apparently dead. There was n piece of steel in almost every square inch of his body. The Walter Reed Hospital surgeons role of the elder son, in spite of the difficulties he had to face, got away nicely with the role of the elder son, and Miss Leneta Lane was again charming as his sweetheart. Edward Arnold as a selfmade and aspiring graduate from an orphan asylum, and Thomas L. Brower, as a disagreeable politician also contribute their bits to a pleasant performance, in which also Olive Wood, Gertrude Murray, ; Robert L. Clear and Walter Soderling offered satisfactory minor bits.
