IDIOT'S DELIGHT With the scene in the modernistic cocktail lounge of an Italian Alpine inn, "Idiot's Delight," Pulitzer prize-winning play by Robert F. Sherwood, was presented March lO and ll under the direction of Miss Jean Collette. Dean Green, the happy-go-lucky vaudeville trouper, and Margaret Frazee, as a fake Russian countess, took the leads in the story of the outbreak of an international war, "The game of Idiot's delight." Ray Hyke was outstanding as a French socialist who died bravely upholding his cause. Richard Reynolds portrayed a treacherous munitions magnate given to double-cross. A chorus of six blondes added gaiety to the production with their singing and dancing routine. Prominent in minor characters were William Herrington, Ralph Wocxiward, Ned Bowler, Charles Donaldson, and Armour Henderson.
