The article throws light on the Louis K. Anspacher's play "Rhapsody," produced by George M. Cohan and acted by Louis Calhern. The article also focuses on "That's Gratitude," written by Frank Caven and acted by him. "Rhapsody" is Anspacher's investigation into the split personality of a war-shocked young composer who makes money with jazz tunes, aspires to do a symphony, and about once in so often slips off into the night-and many ensuing days-with a pistol in his pocket, and some befuddled murderous impulses in his head. Craven did better by himself than Anspacher. "That's Gratitude" also has a fine idea, and any amount of humor, both good and sly.
