Enthusiastic Audience Views
Brilliant Drama at
Temple.
PLAY'S ACTION SWIFT
Production Ably Portrays
Historical Fight With
Yellow Fever.
BY MEREDITH OVERPECK.
"For Yellow Jack Is not only a
profoundly moving piece of work,
but a play of extraordinary signifi
cance," wrote Brooks Atkinson,
critic of the New York Times
after reviewing a performance of
Sidney Howard s epochal produc
tion "Yellow Jack." This play, a
historical drama in two acts and
twenty-nine scenes, opened for a
week's engagement at the Temple
theater Monday evening before an
enthusiastic audience. Howard's
brilliant play was dramatized from
a chapter in Paul de Kruifs book,
"Microbe Hunters." Harold "Pete"
Sumption staged the local presen
tation. ls
One of the characteristics which
made this play out of the ordinary
was the way in which the time
moved backward and showed his
tory in the making. The first scene
is in 1929 in a London laboratory
and scientists are seen working on
a vaccine for yellow fever. In 1927,
it had already been found that the
Rhesus monkey will contract the
disease, so the play moves back
ward to an office in West Africa.
Cuban Scenes.
The scenes which follow, take
place in Cuba, where Dr. Walter
Reed had been sent in 1900 by the
war department to find a cause
and cure for the malaria, called
"yellow jack." In the course of the
experiments, it develops that the
mosquito carries the germ from
human to human, and the action of
the plav centers around the va
rious scientists, doctors and sol
diers of the camp.
The action of the play is swift,
and the heroic fight made by those
men of yesterday, is ably por
trayed in this play. All the cos
tumes of the soldiers in the Cuban
scenes are during the Spanish
American war period. One of the

At Temple.
for
"Mental Hygiene and Religion"
is the topic that Dr. W. E. Walton,
psychology professor, will discuss
at the Y.M.CA. forum meeting
Wednesday evening, Jan. 16, in the
Temple. Dr. Walton stated that he
will deal with his subject in a two
fold manner, first by the considera
tion of religion as a help to people
in solving their mental problems
and secondly in the light that it
only aggravates mental difficulties
as he believes it does in a number
In stating that religion might be
a hindrance instead of a help Dr.
Walton made clear that it is his
opinion that this is true only in the
cases where religion is carried to
the point of fanaticism or insan
ity. He believes that the prevalent
opinion among uninformed people
that psychology and religion are at
cross purposes is entirely false. He
will devote part of bis talk to ex
plaining the harmony between the
two.
According to the Y progiam
committee those interested in this
subject are invited to attend this
discussion as well as the one next
week in. which Manuel Brown will
present a related talk entitled,
