Though a war play with a big punch, "The Claws of the Hun," showing at the Artcraft Theatre, shows no scenes of battle. Yet it is full of excitement, and holds interest throughout. Charles Ray plays the lead as the son of an ammunition manufacturer. Ho is keen on enlisting, but is prevented from doing so by his mother, who is lying ill, and a physician is bribed1 to tell ttie son that he has heart disease. He is filled with disgust, but eventually, by frustrating a plot by a German spy to obtain the secret of some explosives, lie is permitted to enlist to fight for democracy. Good supports and orchestral music are also provided.
