In conclusion the Mayor hoped for rovlvals of the classics, as well as encouragemont of tho con temporary dramu. ...

CHINESE COMEDY WINS SUCCESS AT OPENING 'East Is West" Pleases Audi ence at Chestnut With Unique Story Clicntunt St. Opera Houne After a long period devoted to tho "big" produc tions of tho movie magnates, the Chest nut Street Opera Houso last night rulRed Its curtain upon the spoken drama, be ginning its "regular" season with "East Is WeBt," wltli Fay Baintor ns tho star. Unique In many resiwcta and colorful In Its scenlo setting, this Chlneec-Amerlcan comedf by Samuel Shlpman, co-author of "Frlendlv Enemies," and John P. Hymcr, undoubtedly pleased tho au dience whlcn greeted It ami tho members of tho cast were accorded tho generous trlbuto of repeated curtain-calls after tho BCcond act. Tho Btory of tho llttlo Ming Toy and her young American lover is well de veloped In the prologue nnd three acts, with many strokes of craftsmanship that aro notable. In nil Guch plays, whero dialect la used for tho sake of heighten In? local color In scenes whero It logic ally should not bo used, It Is necessary to take a deliberately charitable view point and the auditor who permits him self to be hypercritical In small details will mWs the true effectiveness of the play. Every one lenows. o course, that two Chinese, In talking to eirh other, would speak Chlneso nnd not "pidgin" nigllsh. but It Is a carping critic who would overlook tho fnet that the dialect does, Tor nlno out or ten persons, con vey nn added seniw of tho foreign per sonalities which are being portrayed. It they spoke Chln-"e. no ono would under stand them. '? thuy tnlked straight Hng- lleh. there would bo no sense o contrast when the American characters camo on tho scene. Fav llalntor Is an nltogothor dainty nnd chnrmlntr little milden whnse naive love affair with a wealthy young Ameri can is seemingly douuu to pile up m wreckage uoon the rocks of tnuredy. Tho situation Is paved, however, by a cloverly wrought dramatic climax which It would ho unfnlr to reveal to those who Intend to son the play. And, unllko most such breeches-buoy types of life saving situations, this one Is qulto plaus ibleprovided, an has been said, one hn9 got onepolf Into the requisite attitude. It would be easy to tear It all anart and scoff nt It, but any man who wants to do that had better stay away from the meatro aitogetner. ItunnlnirMlfBlIlalnter a very closa sec. ond ln appeal to the audience, George Noah, In the part of Charlie, Yong, the "fifty-fifty" Chinese-American chop suey king, portrayed a character unique nmong piays or tne sort and one that was decidedly refreshing In Its original bits of humor. His conception of the sartorial tastes of ouch n p rsonago was as much a triumph as his acttnir. and ha well merited tho insistent demands for hla appearance for special applnuse. Maurice Freeman.

There la, as before hinted, a real plot In which tho various characters, though most of them are bet ter known In musical comedies than ln drama, perform their parts with un doubted credit. And, Just for good measure, Mr. Urlan dancen, as of old. on Boveral occasions and sings, or perhaps It would bo htter to say, recites something called "The Wall of thn Tale of the Long Long Trail," which Is a mnaterplooo of the faRhlon of the onoo popular patter song.
