Plays are best interpreted when done by actors who have qualifications for their roles other than the fact that their names have appeared at one time or another in electric lights. But Christmas brought to the Ethel Barrymore Theater a company ot players who are mo.st of them stars and yt a much better job of acting Chekhov's "The Three Sisters" tha. might have been expected. Katharine Cornell is the producer of the play and under her management nothing is said of an all-star cast. That might have Irinhtened people away.

But no doubt the purpose was to use names to help make the thing a success. And surely it should, for Judith Anderson is in the cast, and Ruth Gordon, Dennis King, Miss Cornell herself. They act this Russian play of a day that is past with the most commendable conscientiousness, all their acknowledged skill and a line vigor. They make it easier than usually it is made for the playgoer to know what Chekhov its talking about. They sivc it force, concision.

There have been smoother, more sensitive, srp.jlcr pro-ducthrs of Chekhov's plays but none here in New York with a greater clarity. It is nice to see so many good American actors together on one stage playing a.s if they were members of the Moscow Art Theater, with complete honesty and a rare spirit of co-operation. It is sensible of Katharine Cornell to want to do an admired Russian play at this time and pay it and Russia the tribute of gathering together for its Interpretation a number of this country's best players. This sort of thing should be done oftener. Stars need it, need to accustom themselves to playing with one another in harmony.

"The Three Sisters" at the Barrymore is a splendid job, but it could be better if there were an older tradition of harmony among stars gathered together on one stage. A group of fine actors cannot do their best work while reminding themselves at every turn that they must be considerate of the others and step on no one's toes, or lines. If you watch them at work in "The Three Sisters" you can see them or inn polite to each other. They are determined that this shall be no all-Mar caii in which it is a question of every man for himself. But it Ls.

nevertheless, to a certain degree, a matter of every man for himself. While each is being epochally unselfish, all the others are making martyrs of themselves just a little. When it comes one noted individual's turn to rlo a particularly Important scene the rest are inclined to sit, back and hold their breaths in their resolve not to interfere with that individual's rights to that scene. The result, thr-tmh a rare example of good will, tends to be the same as is when lour or five stars together think only of themselves and the effect they alone are having. The action is cut up instead of blending into a beautiful, smoothly moving whole.

It isn't nearly so fluid as it could be if the players felt tree enough to lotc all self-consciousness. Trouble is stars have so little chance to gain experience in acting with stars.

The story of the murderer of Bigger Thomas was of Dostoievskian proportions and a searching indictment of a society that tolerates slums. At the behest of producer Orson gamblers with nothing to do except nldn thoir cMrlrlin Russian Is Presenting France and in York, she had learned and forgotten several for-! eign languages, and had trav- eled a good bit.

But what Lunt meant when lie a.sked what she had done, was something ei.se again. For in the the she hadn't done anything.

Alter more than 500 performances in and around New York and on the road. "Native Son" came back to Broadway at the Theater, this time at a $1 aO top, turning the searchlight once again on the conditions that gave Bigger Thomas birth. For Wright's brain-child is no solitary case, but a composite nf hiftie and confused Negro youngster. Wright is one of those men of talent who arise from abject pov erty. Like most men of great tal ent, he wrote his novel because he couldn't help it.

He had to get it off his chest. But before he began it he planned it as carefully as he could. With Negro leader Horace Cayton, head of the Good Shepherd Community House in Chicago, he combed the South Side 01 that sprawling city looking for buildings that would fit the vivid scenes al ready growing in his mind. It was not hard for them to find the kind of hovel Bigger might have been brought up in. At 21st and Dearborn they spotted a rickety structure, rat-infested and dirty.

Here might have dwelt Bigger's mother, plagued too sorely with the problem of feeding a family to give the troubled soul of her son attention. At 40th and Vincennes they dis-1 covered a dingy diner which became the Chicken Shack of the novel. Here Bigger might have met his pals, the petty pool-room I went up to the Guild casting de-1 partment and saw a thousand people sitting around, so I decided this must be it. "But it turned out they were casting Saroyan's "Love's 01:1 Sweet Seng." and what they were looking for that day was So I left, but I w.ndered upstairs any- how just to se what I could sec. And when I goi to the top of the Guild building there was a rehearsal room with the door open so I walked in.

"Mr. Lunt was sitting there talking to somebody so I sat clown very quietly and put my umbrella somewhere and took off my rubbers and waited. Finally he got up and started past me to the door, and then stopped and came back and said, 'Were you waiting to see and I said 'I would like to be in Problem Was lo De-Glamorize the Girls This Time In an industry which socializes in glamour, "Proof Thru the Night," which opened Christmas night at the Morosco Theater, offers a welcome relief. Allan R. Kenward, author-director of the play, spent every effort to de-glamorize the attractive young women who are playing the roles of 12 Americans stranded at an outpost near Bataan and who rise to the occasion by becoming volunteer nurses.

Under constant bombardment by the Japanese, these women have no time for the niceties of civilization such as rouge, lipstick and fancy hair-do. Ordinarily the performers look pretty tired and unattractive at rehearsal but manage to blossom out on opening nigh- as glamorous and well-coiifed as their make-up art anH hairdresser can achieve. But in tins case Kathenne Emery, Kather-ine Locke, Ann Shoemaker, Helen Trenholme, Thclma Schnee, Florence Rice. Muriel Hutchison, Florence MacMichael, Julie Stevens. Carol Channing.

Margaret Philips and Ruth Coniey were all well- groomed young ladies at rehearsal but on opening night they emerged as efficient, hard-working nurses in make-shift khaki uniforms. Their hair is combed neatly back, sans benefit of "permanents," and their nails arc clipped short and denuded of crimson polish. Allan Kenward carried this realism further 'ian the costume department. The dialogue in this all-woman play is not exactly the heard in the drawing room. Given a grou.i of a dozen women culled from every walk of lile and throw them all together in an abandoned gun emplacement under direct fire and the veneer is bourn! to be scraped.

There is tenderness and profanity, nobility and br.uli-ness. terror, and courage, and a portion of salty humor. Albert Johnson, in designing the sot; inns, worked irom photographs of actual installations on Bataan. Trembling walls, falling plaster, and flying debris are just a few of the manv problems which confronted Efe Af the Alvin Angna Enters will present four new numbers on her opening pro-grain at the Alvin Theater tonight, when Luther Greene presents "The Theater of Angna Enters'' for a spe cial six performance engagement ending Thursday, New Year's Eve, and including a Wednesday matinee.

In its ancient coach-house Wright envisaged Bigger, proud because he had a job as a chauffeur, terrified with the richness of his new surroundings and the aggression of the neurotic Mary Dalton. He noticed the mansion's stone portico and, in the novel, stood the Dalton car beneath it the night Bigger burned Mary's body in the Dalton furnace.

Wright even visited the furnace room at 44th and Drexel until that place was printed indelibly on his brain to reappear in the book and on the stage. The success of the novel was historic. The actual Chicago South Side scenes were faithfully transmitted to the pages of the book. But this was not enough for Orson Welles or the author. While the heavy and naturalistic stage de- signs for the dramatization were under consideration, Welles, Wright and designer James Morcom went to Chicago to visit the same spots again.

In "Up in Mabel's Room." She consolidated this success with "Barnum Was Right," 'The Blonde Sinner," "The Women," "Two Bouquets," "Morning's at Seven" and, last season, "Ah, Wilderness." In "Sweet Charity," the new Ir- vlng Brecher-Manuel Seff comedy, i under the direction of George Abbott, Enid Markey has the role of Mrs. Brindle, pleasantly befuddled treasurer of the "Friendly Hand Club." The fact that Mrs. Brindle cannot keep her own grocery budget in order makes her none-the-lcss valuable as club exchequer because where she falls short on balances she makes up on alibis. It is a role paved with the flagstones of humor that led right to Miss Markey's door Samue, Hoffen5teln onf Mld that WM Helen of babe gl8re and Usp tnal iaunchPd I thousand ships and burned the toplesg towm of lmutn but that Enld Mapy cou 0ut-starc and 0ut-lisp her 'Trojan sister. tn addition to the comedy talents i nf MLss Markev.
