NEW PARLOR GAME FUTILEBUT AMUSING Consists in Selecting the Ten Best Players of the Year New York, N.Y. Aug. 9.--"Proba- bly the most harmless and certainly the most futile parlor game extant is picking the ten best plays of the vear," writes Richard Watts, Jr, in the New York Herald Tribune, "Any- way, it is a reasonably entertaining sport and, in addition, it provides possibilities for indulging in amusing variations, such as selecting the ten worst dramas, rst, gral This timorous observer's current idea of the ten new plays that pro- vided him, in one wav or another, with the greatest satisfaction of the departed season is: 'Journey's End, 'Street Scene," 'The Sacred Flame,' 'Gods of the Lightning,' 'Gvpsy Ma- chinal' 'Serena Blanish, 'Wings over Europe," 'Dynamo,' and, with apolo- gies to almost every one in the world, 'Gentlemen of the Press" It is only fair to say that this recorde? had a certain minor collaborating interest in the last named play and therefore may be a trifle prejudiced. "As a sort of tip-off on my 'ack of my commercial judgment, it may as well be confessed that the following list of the dramas that seemed to me most overrated. contained a fair higher percentage of successes.

They certainly weren't the worst plays of the year, but it did seem to me that they received far more than their merited share of cash and admiration, "Now to get down to the business of explaining the sclection of the first list. 'Journey's End' and 'Street Scene,' of course, need no defense. The former is, as any primary fol- lower of the drama knows, the only great war play since 'What Price Glory,' and, if less robust, it is more touching than its predecessor, 'Street Scene,' it is an axiom of the the3iire to repeat, offers the finest amalga- mation of" realism and poetry that the drama has yet brought to bear on the average New York existence.

The [l'e- cember gain was $48 a car, but August fresh futures showed a $24 loss.
