partment, gave a lecture in the
school auditorium on December 9.
Mr. Calloway presented reviews
and criticisms of some of the most
outstanding plays now on Broad

“Mr. Roberts,” a story of sailors
on board a mail-carrier ship, from
which he cited several humorous
incidents: “A Street Car Named
Desire,” a moralistic plaj'-; “In
side U.S.A.,” a musical comedy
which he considered one of the
best plays of its type, and “Com
mand Decisions,” which is a ver>'
serious plaj^ concerning the war.
Mr. Callowaj^ also gave sketches
from several other plays.
After his lecture, he held a dis
cussion period, during Avhich time
he answered various questions
asked b.v the audience.
