New Program Is Organized For Teachers The President of the four Con- necicut State Teachers Colleges announced today that the adminis- trative officers and faculties of the four colleges, conforming to the policy adopted by the State Board of Education on June 7, are pro- ceeding to reorganize the cur- ricular program, to adjust the pro- fessorial staff, and to admit stu- dents on a slightly different basis for the coming year. Consistent with the policy of the Board, the colleges will attempt to work out a program which will be primarily for the purpose of supplying the state with an adequate number of thoroughly trained teachers and, at the same time, to utilize the college to serve the wider needs in this state. The faculty committees have been appointed for the purpose of reoganizing the curricuiar pro- gram, which provide for gener- al education for the first two years. Curricuiar offerings for this period, there, will serve not only as a basis from which to build the profession- al teacher-education program dur- ing the upper two years but will, at the same time, give a liberal educa- tion which may be transferable to other colleges; thus, students who wish to take a two-year program In the teachers colleges and then transfer to other Institutions may be able to do so.

Movie scouts, celebrities, and a capacity crowd of local residents were there to see,this preview and Judge what the play's chances will be when it opens on Broadway in tile fall. And their opinion seemed unanimous—It will be one of the hits of the season. "She Didn't Know It Was Loaded" Is the story of Judy Holmes, an at- tractive twenty-two year old girl jyho \^tttes,a:boo^iUed I'Qet^ benefit of women the technique ot getting men. To increase the book's sales, Judy's press agent publicizes her as a glamor girl with dozens of men in love with her. She becomes famous, and the book becomes a best-seller. But complications arise when her own man-a young archi- tect who hates designing women— objects to the publicity and throws Judy over. A national magazine gets wind of this, and it seems disaster- ous, for how can the reading public accept Judy as an authority on how to get your man when she cannot get her own? Fortunately, however, Judy has a very wise sister Alice, and with her help and that of the press agent, everything is finally worked out to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Continued from page one him. Susan is even less successful in trying to fix her own life. She at­tempts to cure her husband of drunkenness without giving him the one thing he noeds-her love and companionship. But, more fortun ate than Irene, she sees the light, and rebuilds her marriage on a more firm foundation

One reason for the phenomenal success of this play Is that it is the perfect type of high comedy. It has character, belcvable situations, and honest drama, yet It sparkles con­tinually with wit and good humor. The situations in which Susan in­volves herself and her friends are serious, yet her antics are so amus ing tha t she keeps her audience continually in a good mood, and frequently convulses them with laughter. And each of the other perfectly rounded characters con tributes his or her share, be It comic or dramatic, to one of the most beautifully constructed and written play tha t the theater has seen in recent years.

Miss Ralston and Miss Brian are tremendously effective In the lead­ing roles of Susan and Irene. They are perfect foils for each other. Miss Ralston Is an angelic blonde. Miss Brian a striking brunette. Miss Ralston is naive, animated, bubbl­ing with personality; Miss Brian Is crisp, poised, and sophisticated. They arc alike only In their marvel­ous acting ability, which enables them to their very different roles with an anqual degree of excellence. I t is really remarkable to see how these two have done so much screen work, have able to adapt themselves to the exacting demands of the stage They act, not like movie stars on exhibition, but like experienced actresses of the theatre.

Mitchell Harris, who has built up a tremendous following in this vic-Initywltli his comic roles, plays "litraight" this week in the part of Susan's husband, and shows what he can do with a serious characteri­zation. As a man who is fine and strong, but continually fighting one weakness, alcohol, "Mitch" does an Impressive Job. Olive Warren ogain proves versatility by taking the part of Susan's fifteen-year-old daugh­ter with great char and humor and a little pathos. Others notable in the supporting cast are Jean Piatt, Elizabeth Stearns, and Alan Hand-ley. Hardie Albright has directed the production in his customary smooth and skilful manner and Peter Wolf has designed the three sets, which rae as beautiful ond as convincing as any he has done all year.

Next week the Chapel Playhouse will present the preview of a brand new play. "She Didn't Know It Was Loaded", prior to its Broadway opening. The s tars will be Louise Piatt and Virginia Valll (Mrs. Charles Farrel l) . On Friday after­noon, August 18th, a t 2:30 P.M., Charlotte BUchwald, the Chapel Playhouse Playgoer, will interview Esther Ralston on Station WICC,

Lester Nichols Completes 73rd Year At M. I. F.

Seventy three years ago today, as these notes go to press, a certain young man walked with a brisk step to board the Shore Line train leav­ing frow New Haven for Branford. I t was still early in the morning when the rattley, little train pulled Into Branford, and the young man, with lunch box in hand, and morn­ing newspaper in pocket, walked unknowingly toward the goal of his life's occupation. A small brick building, surrounded by a vastness of green meadows met his eyes, and one can easily imagine why his concern, a t the moment was how steady the Job was to be. But smoke was coming from the one, lone chlmmey and the glistening Branford" River in the distance looked friendly enough, and exactly a t seven thirty, Lester Nichols found himself serving his first hour of work with the M.I.F. by helping Mr. E.C. Hammer stencil small kegs of pipe fittings on the shipping room floor.

The events of today were not so essentially different to the same Lester Nichols, for this very morn­ing, he started from his home, and went, with the same keen Interest, to his goal of occupation. And one may easily believe that , having con trlbuted greatly towards the build ing of a greater bushlness, the app reaching sight of a vastness of brick buildings now. Instead of green meadows, gave him a sense of pride t h a t most of us will never know. But the question of the steadiness of the job no longer troubles Mr. Nichols, we understand.

In starting the seventy four years of service In the M.I.F. Co. we heartily congratulate Mr. Nichols, and wish him the best of good wishes.

DIES FOLLOWING BRIEF ILLNESS

E.MEKGENCV LANDING

Emergency landings have been made by flyers under conditions which have left the beholder breathless, but few of them have exceeded in dramatic thrills one made by Lieut. L.M.H. Sanderson, of the U.S. Marines, who risked life and limb to save his little single-seater plane.

While taking off on a return flight from Philadelphia to quan-tlco,Va., 150 miles away, his landing gear struck some obstacle, and as he climbed to a safe altitude he looked below to see the ground crew signalling frantically. He realized tha t the wheels of his plane were so badly damaged tha t either to continue his flight or attempt a landing would extremely hazardous.

An ambulance and fire engine dashed onto the field, but Sander­son had no ntention of using his parachute to bail out. To the aston­ishment of the watchers below he continued his flight southward.

Eventually he reached Aberdeen, Md., but by that time the wrecked gear, swinging like a pendulum, had so damaged his lower wing and the fuselage that a crack-up was Imminent. The ship was being ham­mered to pieces. He would have to land it or leave It.

Emergency messages had been flashed to all Army and Navy sta­tions to the south to be on the look­out for the stricken plane. A second rescue was standing by at Aberdeen Army Air Corps field, with the motor wide open he circled the field, dropping his money and his watch wrapped in a service cap— tied with his handkerchief.

Then he glided over the shoreline and brought his crippled craft down on Chesapeak Bay with a splash, yet without injury to the flyer or further damage to the plane. Even when the rescue crew had shifted from fire engine and ambulance to rowboat, and wanted to take him ashore he refused to leave util the salvaging of his airship was assured.

Charles Paoileo of Dep. 11, spent the week end at Old Orchard Maine. He says "There was plenty of pop corn and Rupperts on the beach, but he brought home only a mess of sand clams in bottles.

New Program Is Organized

For Teachers The President of the four Con-

necicut State Teachers Colleges announced today that the adminis­trative officers and faculties of the four colleges, conforming to the policy adopted by the State Board of Education on June 7, are pro­ceeding to reorganize the cur-ricular program, to adjust the pro­fessorial staff, and to admit s tu­dents on a slightly different basis for the coming year. Consistent with the policy of the Board, the colleges will attempt to work out a program which will be primarily for the purpose of supplying the state with an adequate number of thoroughly trained teachers and, at the same time, to utilize the college to serve the wider needs in this state.

The faculty committees have been appointed for the purpose of reoganizing the curricuiar pro­gram, which provide for gener­al education for the first two years. Curricuiar offerings for this period, there, will serve not only as a basis from which to build the profession­al teacher-education program dur­ing the upper two years but will, at the same time, give a liberal educa­tion which may be transferable to other colleges; thus, students who wish to take a two-year program In the teachers colleges and then transfer to other Institutions may be able to do so.

Monday night was an exciting occasion at the Chapel Playhouse in Guilford, for it saw the opening of a brand new comedy, "She Didn't Know It was Lotided," by Hilde-garde Dolson and Sylvia Harris, starring the well-known scheen actresses Louise Piatt and Virginia Valli. Movie scouts, celebrities, and a capacity crowd of local residents were there to see,this preview and Judge what the play's chances will be when it opens on Broadway in tile fall. And their opinion seemed unanimous—It will be one of the hits of the season.

benefit of women the technique ot getting men. To increase the book's sales, Judy's press agent publicizes her as a glamor girl with dozens of men in love with her. She becomes famous, and the book becomes a best-seller. But complications arise when her own man-a young archi­tect who hates designing women— objects to the publicity and throws Judy over. A national magazine gets wind of this, and it seems disaster-ous, for how can the reading public accept Judy as an authority on how to get your man when she cannot get her own? Fortunately, however, Judy has a very wise sister Alice, and with her help and that of the press agent, everything is finally worked out to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Black with bright sets the gaily sophisticated pace of the early fall fashions.

And In the matter ot fabrics, silk jersey and rayon crepe are In a photofinish race for Ilrst place.

It is to be one ot the most Inter­esting fashion seasons In years. That much Is definitely established. Wlielhor the bustle is merely aii early fash in tiic pan or whether it is here to stay for the fall and win­ter is still problematical.

Many of the designers whose word is fashion law say that It Is. But a good many others whose Influence on fashion trends Is equally as Im­portant predict that it-will be all gone with the autumn leaves. How­ever that may be, they all seem agreed that the prevailing silhouet­te will be small waists, high busts and with skirt fullness thrust to the back.

Hals go to oil sorts of lengths as regards crowns but the majority seem content With small brims. Coy feathers In dramatic color cascade from wee little trleornes that ai ready beckon alluringly from Fifth Avenue windows. T\ne hood is still prominently in the picture and tur­bans ot chiffon velvet in jewel col­ors will give the necessary "umpii" to early fall outfits.

Water Is Not Fattening

Man can live without food, al­though uncomfortably, for some time. Deprivation Irom water, how­ever, ^ffeols him seriously after a short lime. While tills colorless liq­uid has no value which can be measured in calarlcs, ill tlie body's tissues contain It and it Is ail es­sential par t of the blood and the digestive Juices; ' ' ' '

Food must be liquined before it can be absorbed. Sdine fiibds, or course, contalii enough' natural wa­ter to take care ot this. We iniist, however, add each 'day li goodly quantity of'liquid to reiiltice what Is losl.

I t Is hardly possible tor a person In normal health to drink too much water and at this point I should mention the fact that the body na­turally regulates the amount that Is stored In the tissues. You mayi drink Just as much water as you like and not bo obliged to worry aijout its being a factor In'produc-ihg extra weight. I t is ri coihihbii fallacy' to believe that water li fat­tening! Actually It plays a pa r t ' i n weight only' when salt is eatcii In overly large 'quantities: Bbtji salt and water are necessary toi' body efficiency.

l'inca|iplc And INIint Shcrbcrl 1 cup sugar 2 cups water

1 cup chopped pineapple Juice of two lemons 1 teaspoon mint extract Green coloring 2 egg whites ' ^

Boll sugar and water together 3 minutes. Cool, add pineapple, le­mon juice, extract and coloring to make a light gieen. Pour into freez­er, pack with salt and ice, or place in refrigerator trays. Freeze until almost solid. And well beaten egg whites to mixture in freezer, stir well. Pack and let stand a few nours hours, or remove shcrbert from trays and stir' in ' beaten sherbet from trays until frozen. Serve garnished with siJi'lgs of mint. ' '

Frozen Dried Beef Canape 1-3 cup croairi ; 1 tablespoon horseradish '/a'apple scraped or grated 12 slices dried beet Whip cream;'add horseradish and

apple. Drop a teaspoontul into eacli piece of beet.'Roll up and place In llrcozlng trays 1 aiid - freeze several hours. '- .-c-.*-' ' . "

Distributiop G.JYiq Pel icacies To Modest Budgets With modern mass distribution of

foodstuffs putting ' dellcaolcs troni all bver the world within rehoh 6f t h e ' average hdmcinakCr's' UUdgdt, hot weather meals can be madb more zoslful by addition of some \in-usuill dish to which the family Is not ordinarily accustomed. '"

An attracilve saiad to serve witli cold meats consists of tomatobs stuffed with celery and a sinrill amount of finely chopiJed ohldn, theii topped with highly scaiibnort mayonnaise on whlbh Is placed a teaspoonful ot caviar. Many foods formerly regarded only as expch'-slve delicacies are now available' to almost everyone through the chain store type of marketing the world's produce; ' '

Another delicacy which mass merchandising lias brought within reac'li of tne modest giooory bud­get Is the anchovy. On a very hot night sc 'vc eggs stuffed with an-choi>y paste with a platter of cold meat, garnished wi th ' lettuce arid slices ot'tomiilocs and w'atcli'hcd't jaded appetites pick up.

It Is no trick to pre pare tlie eggs. Select the number you think nec­essary and bdll' tVienv'hard.' Cut' In two, remove the yolks and season with salt, pajj'rlka, a'little prepared niVikard and ' add one tbaSpboii' bt ahcliovy iiasto' tor eVery'cBg yolki Put the mixture back Into tho halv-eci wliltes and garnish with a bit of parsley. •

AMERICANS DON'T BELIEVE IT

THANKSGIVING DAY

Dog doys arc liero and now so much of the unusual is occurring that wo soarcoly'miss the ahsonee of Congress. The heat, rather wide spread drought, the continued fur­ore in Europe, sun burn on the vacationists, flat pocket boolts after vacation trips, disheartened turkeys and 'wha t h a v e y o u , leave us in a oonsidorably perturbed state of mind. Thq events and af­fairs now occurring rotlcot this. The President 's nnoxpeotcd shiEt-ing of-Thank!igiv.iiig day, is about the most discussed item in current affairs. Naturally, the shift does a lot of things to a lot of people. The depar tment stores en,ioying. the greatest benefit. Tliero noM' occurs growing interestj in a p e r m a n e n t time f o r ' Thanksgiving, Sugges­tions are coming in from all sides. Sorad would have Cliristiuas and Thanksgiving combined.

Tho Jews do not dominate the Govermeht of the Nation, state or city, there is only one Jew in the President's cabinet. There is only one Jew on the Supreme Court. There are those, including Father Couglin, who are claiming that the Jews dominate President Roosevelt —the President who has been the greatest humanitarian to grace the White House, and who has rendered service to all cla.sses of people with­out regard to race, color or creed.

POET'S CORNER BEAUTIFUL VISITORS

I looked from my window One morning In spring.

And under the fir tree I saw a strange thing.

Twas an indigo bunting. So rare and so, blue;

And the morn was so peaceful. And the grass wet with dew.

I stood and I watched him, And did almost adore, .

And this bird of rare beauty Was a guest a t my door.

It seemed a good omen, A sign of new hope.

And I sang a t the task With which I must cope.

Next morn to my window I went once again,

And there by the fir tree . Two birdies I knew

Two birds of blue plumage, With their neat little wives.

Were hopping and feeding— I A ioveiy surplso.

I called in my neighbor, To thirll at the charm.

Stepped ever so softly. To cause no alarm.

But oh me, and oh my! A stray cat crossed the grass

Nor saw she what I saw. But there's danger alasl

Away flew the birdies. Nor did they return.

Fulfilled was their mission. Though for them—I yearn.

When danger is near us 'Twere better by far,

To lake our wings. And make for a star.

JOHN ENLUND

Last Tuesday, the flag was a t half mast In honor of John Enlund whose death will be recorded in other columns. Forty seven years of honor­able service to the M.I.F. be­speaks our admiration and fondness for John, and tor no one who had ever come Into his acquaintance, in those long years of molding, could have helped gaining a spiri­tual uplift from his ever cheerful countenance and his readiness to help his co-work­ers.

Coming to Branford, and to us, a t the age of nineteen, John worked steadl.'j' at mold­ing until about three years ago, when he was transferred to a lighter occupation. On July 13th, of last year he was forced to retire on account of poor health. We shall miss John Enlund and his passing Is a sadness to us all.

and later on Dan Bandrift had charge and ably supervised the op­erations when molding machines became necessary for the larger running jobs.

No. 3 was the old type hand-fired melting furnace, and aside from the physical endurance, stoking and proper trimming of the white hot flame, which was accomplished by long handled pokers, a high degree of skill and experience was required to produce the proper results. While eighteen tons of iron was considered a comfortable capacity for this fur­nace, very frequently it ran on a melt as low as ten tons, which range of capacity today would be considered a mere saucepanfull as compared to the capacities of the more modern pulverized coal fur-nace which is mechanically flrcd.

No. 3.furnace, if it had the powers of speech could have told a most harrowing tale of having been run down by a runaway fright car, for one morning when the melting was In progress, a car came bowling off from the end of the spur track and crashed through the foundry walls to end up solidly against Iron bound sides. No one was Injured, but the need of extensive repairs closed down that foundry for quite some weeks.

Today No. 3 foundry is used for casting brass and aluminum and some parts of it is occupied for storage of scrap for steel melting.

Back in 1908, when the Steel Foundry was in its Infancy and when Mr. Jamison was working hard to have M.LF.'s name Identi­fied with good steel castings, he asked one good customer who built ships, to write him a testimonial The Steel castings purchased from

M.I.F, are the best I've ever seen came the reply from the manager. Mr. Jamison later found tha t the manager had been blind most of his life.

Last week old No. 3 Malleable fur­nace was finally demolished, after remaining unused since June 16, 1927 The old veteran was built and first fired in 1901, and the tall, square stack, whlph stlllstands was considered, a t the time, to be of model proportions for perfect draft.

W h e n h i PdrfbrinctI K i H i s Heyday IiVthe IhtefiliUional League ; H a d C t t i l t 'Th toWih^ Arni Ami Wrts Downrigi i f Sniiirt

George Schreier, sports wri ter for the Jersey Observer of H0I50 i«en, N .

Taken on the basis of attack and defense, DlMagglo -probably rates with the g:*oatest of 'al l time. We wouldn't know because a few bf those namedi came before our time.

But based on 'defensive ability alone we failed to find the name of Johnny Cbbnoy of the Boston Bees among those selected. Nor did we notice the name of Frank (Beauty) McGowan, Branford, o f ' t he 'Ba l t i ­more Orioles thereon

Even today, at the advanced age of 40 or thereabouts, Coonoy re­mains one'of the 'mos t picturesque outllelders 111 Jhe game. He Is rhy­thm personified.' Ploying the out­field Is second nature to him.

But we think the greatest outfield er wo have ever seen (arid we WAtcK cd Ty Cobb, Trls Speaker ond othe'r great ones) was McQowan whert'he performed In his heyday In the International League. >

Local Ball Players Be Given Tryouts by Cardinal Farrn

Aspiring young ball players of this section will be given an op­portunity to determine whether or not they have a future in profession al baseball when the St. Louis Car­dinal organization holds a try-out camp a t Roosevelt Park, Blackstone, Mass. beginning • Monday Sept. 11. The camp will last approximately a week'.

The tryout camp was announced today by LoRoy A. Dlsslnger who scouts this section for the St^ Louis Red Birds. Dissinger stated a number of other well-known Cardinal scouts will be assigned to the tryouts to pass Judgement on the players who attend. The scouting personnel will bo announced shortly he-sald. • • i-

On behalf of the 'Cardinal 'organ­ization, Disslngdr extended an'-In­vitation to boys between ' t hd agos of 17 and 23,' who believe they have the ability to play'ba'sebair profes­sionally, to attend the camp. To 're­ceive tryouts, Dlsslnger said, boys merely have to present themselves at Roosevelt Park 'at'-9 o'clock the morning of Monday Sept. 11 bring­ing their shoes, gloves and uniforms. The only requirements are that out-of-town boys must finance their own trips to Blackstone and their living expenses while there.

No fee is charged boys who at­tend. Troyouts, Dlsslnger explained win probably entail a stay of three or four days for out-of-town boys. Boys signed to contracts will bo re­funded their expenses incident to attending the camp.

This contest will be the last be­tween the two rival clubs this sea­son, with but three remaining games on their schedule. So a- win- will help either team In the league standing, '

Last Sunday's result set the stage perfectly for the meeting of- the Belltown club and the - Giants , at Drury Field in East Hampton next Sunday, and that game may decide the pennant—unless rain; should interfere—and It will make either give East Hampton a better lead or Mlddletown a tie. At the present time the two teams are hi top place with but half a game-separating each other, the Belltowners credited with 14 victories In 17 starts a-nd the Giants with 13 wins In 17starts: No;- in a long time has there been such a close race and fans hope tha t ' t he competition will remain as keen right'up'tO'the very last game o f ' t he season Inisplte-of the out-comi' 'ot"Sunday's contest.

Walter (Klinky) Klarman won a contest Sunday which will not be protested, which makes Klinky feel happyi He boat Essex 2 to i, allow-

"•lhg"th'fe'e"hlts'"an"d' whizzing 11 via the strikeout route. Ernie Donofrlo played thlr'cl bafe'e' for' the 'Towrlles In 'place' 'of 'iphii Nugent,' •\/illahva star, and great friend 6' Pe teyNa-Inib, Who' plays with' the New Haven Pros. Nugent Is barred'from playing in any more games this Season by President Paul Joyce, -

By the way speaking of John Nu­gent, who makes his home in town, is also o.uite a pugilistic'llfehtheavy-weight. The other night in Hart­ford he won a decision and last week d t Milford,added mbre'vict'ory laurels to his already fistic honors.

The veteran Walter Brainerd, center fielder o't the Hlggiinum team, ln,1urod his knee In chasing a fly ball Sunday. He collided with Charlie Todeschlnl.

Eddle.Nosal Is.well satisfied with the Inflold of the Hlggy club, made up of rookies. "Watch them next season," says Eddie. Louis Nosal who .started at third base, fln'ished up on the mound. He allowed East Hampton four hits.

The highly-touted Hawks again scored another victory on a scratch hit. Last Sunday the Red Men Soft­ball team could not ^tand the ter­rific scoring onslaught Of the higli-flylng Hawks ahd so succumbed Valiantly-'2-0 (by the hair of tlielr feathers) after • playing Arte ball thiit had all the spectators on edge a t the Pale Pacb Pow -Wow.

In the horseshoe contest, also staged at this particular event, the ringer chaihpions, Ted Mason and Charles' t r eem, who coultl'rlng al­most anything with htirns on It, worked up a sweat ' to defeat thfe Red' • Men Ringers 'two ' out of three games aiVd thereby taking again the proverbial'glory and at the ' ' same time '' taking the War Dance victory awa'y trohi the Pale ^acos^ ' '

It seems that one of the Crows is letting out a sort of a weak squeak, calling Caw! Cawl Cawl to his' hairless-feathered Crowsi (but t h e " Ci'bws who seem to be In matliig time) do'h't seem to heed h i s ' maid'eri' call. Of course, this Is nothing to be alarmed about for this particular Crow, crows "Hawk'! Hawk! Hawk! betcha ' ya boots"

By the way, speaking of the Hawks, one of the small fellows, (0 midget of some 260 lb. piece of humanity) comes around with an old saying, that if ho should ever go a hunting, he would kill off the Ci-ows, a dime a dozen.

Thiit may sound like a gag, but according to the best of testimony this story is of the- real McCoy var­iety. So, fair readers, IIT you should perchance see tlie sun obscured, some one of these hot days, dont, by any means, be alarmed, for It will be Crow s feathers flying thick and fast around these parts. •]

Everybody is asking for another social get-together a t the famous Hawk's Nest, but according to the Chief Hawk, not many moons will come and go when the> time will be ripe for the Hav/ic to swope down and snatch a well fattened- feath­er bird in the still of the night, as the Hawks are noted for taking ev­erything and leave nothing.

Hunting Interest has been revived around the. Hawks camp, and the rebirth hiis'brought about the fine sportsmanship by the organization which will give a prize of $2.00 for any brother member who is able to kill one 'real hawk (maybe a crow)'. 'That's the latest news flash.

Watch the bulletin board for fur­ther (de-tails.)

Playhouse Show Continued jrom page one

The reason why this play Is so certain to be successful In New York Is that In all Its three acts there Is never a dull momqnt. I t Is a con­tinually delightful scramble . of charming people doing funny things ranging from high to the broadest farce, but never verging on the ridiculous or falling to make sense with the play as a whole. With all Its riotous fun It Is well con­structed, neatly put together by two playwrights who know their busin­ess. I ts comedy Is In character as well as In situation, and gives the expert Playhouse company a chance for some entertaining characteriza­tions.

Louise Piatt, as Judy, proves tha t a talent for light comedy Is among her many accomplishments. She is a far cry from the Intense Terry of "Stage Door" or the poetic Diane of Seventh Heaven". The part of

Judy, which requires a sense of humor, lightness of touch, and un ­limited energy Is just as much up her alley as anything else she has done, she looks as pretty as a pic­ture, and charmed the openlng-nlght audience completely.

Virginia Valll takes the Important part of Alice, Judy's sister and ad­visor, and makes It ono of the out­standing things In the play. In con­trast Judy's exuberance, her hiimor Is of the dry variety, she comes out with screamingly funny remarks In her quiet way, and completely con­vulses the audience. In her first appearance In Guilford, she proves herself well equal to her famous husband, Charles Farrell, In acting ability and stage personality.

"Guilford's Clark Gable", whom everyone knows by now Is Alan Handley, lives up to this title In h l s | attractive portrayal of the archi­tect. His artistic ability stands lilm in good stead, for he draws a pic­ture before the audience's very eyes! Mitchell Harris has nevbr been so funny as In the par t of Alice's stuffy husband, and Alexan­der Cross Is particularly good as the dynamic press agent. The versatile Ollvo Warren Is a siren this week, and a very charming one.

Hardle Albright, who had the t re­mendous Job of directing a new play In one short week, has done an amazing Job, and presented the play after Its few rehearsals with no let-downs and no ragged edges. Joe Marra, PInch-hlttIng for Poter Wolf, proves that he too Is an ex, cellent scene designer.

Next week the Chapel Playhouse win present Louise Groody, Elaine Barrio, and Helen Twelvetrees In the racy New York comedy, "The Greeks Had a Word For It". I t will open on Monday, August 28 th.

Stars and more stars, and fine pictures all combine to make the Milford Drlve-ln Theatre, Post Road and Cherry Street, Milford—a popular rendezvous to enjoy the movies out-of-doors In automobiles. On warm nights when It's too warm to do much of anything, the even­ings are made much more pleasan ter when people go to the movies out-ln-the open, where Mother Nature takes care of the cooling system. There Is no extra charge for sitting In your own car, and seeing and hearing the movies at the Drive -In. Continuous every night, rain or shine, autolst-theatregoers can come and go at anytime they desire.

This Wednesday, Thursday, Fri­day and Saturday the program In eludes Irene Dunne and Douglas F'alrbanks, J r . In the brilliant comedy hit, "Joy of Living", The splendid supporting cast to the stars include such notable comedi­ans as Billy Gilbert, Waren Hymer, Franklyn Pangborn, Eric Bloro, Guy Kibboe, John Qualeri and others. Also In the film are Lucille Ball, Alice Brady, Frank Milan, Spencer Charters. On the same bill are also March of Time and the latest news.

Starting on Sunday night, and continuing Monday and Tuesday nights, will be Charlies McCarthy and Edgar Bergln, Adolphe Monjou and Andrea Leeds In "Letter of In­troduction," Also In the picture are George Murphy. Rita Johnson, Eve Arden, beautiful Ann Sheridan, and Ernest Cossart.

THE CONSUMER SPEAKS By HOWARD FATE

NEEDUI)! A YOUNG DKMOCRATIO CLUB

For some time there has been a Young Republican Club In Bran-ford. No group of young people have had the foresight to form a Young Democratic Club. Why? Such a club is needed in this town espacially In vie)v of the all-important 1B40 campaigns tha t will soon get under way.

Most of the time I have taken but a passive Interest in political par­ties. This does not mean tha t I have not been interested In social and economic problems tha t concern the well-beating of every man, women and child. I have now,come to the conclusion tha t the time has arriv­ed to actively support a political party, not In the hope of gaining political favors but In the strong belief that active support of a pol­itical party Is a vital necessity In the crucial years to follow.

The parly that I would support Is the Democratic Party. I will a t ­tempt to give my reasons for the support of a young democratic group as well as for the necessity of continuing the present Roosevelt Administration for another term. Here Is as good a place as any to say that I am not opposed on pr in­ciple to a third term for Roosevelt provided he decides to be a candi­date. Furthermore, I will actively support Roosevelt or any liberal Democratic candidate in the unfor­tunate event that Roosevelt does not choose to run. I do not foolishly say tha t Roosevelt's third term would be his first or second term because all of his proposals were not ac oepted. Such a remark coming from a high Administration official, though meant well, did more harm than good. Everybody knows tha t Roosevelt has served two terms.

the standard of living. There is an old Chinese proverb to the effect that "a little silver sticks to the palm of the hand It passes through." During the past when the Republl-oans have been in power they have encouraged big business to let en-|j tirely too much sliver stick to their hands. So sticky were the hands of business under Hoover t ha t compar­atively little was left to benefit the low-Income classes.

But when a president such as Roosevelt discards this theory and substitutes Instead a theory that a largo "trickle" to the masses Is nec­essary to keep our economy going he is, of course, criticised by big business intercfits. The New Deal is trying to increase purchasing power by raising the Incomes of the lower half of our people. But business Is so impatient. I t knows that' It will receive a great deal of this money as fast as the people spend it. As the income of the mass­es rises the power of business over the masses declines. To Illustrate: Look how the Administration had to tight every step of the way to es­tablish wage and hour laws and the right of labor to bargain collectively. This was but one step in the Ad­ministration's program to raise the average worker from the status of a wage slave to one of a free In­dividual. Big business loft to Itself always tries to get labor just as cheap as It can and tries to get the highest prices for the products of labor. Thus ^the moss of consumers does not have enough purchasing power to buy back the goods It produces.

The New Deal, despite reactionary opposition, will succeed In falsing purchasing power and lowering prices so that more people will have more of the good things in life. Unless this Is done we will lose our Democracy. We must face our ec­onomic problems in the hero and

WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS

of the Wagner Act Itself.

Congress has gone home now, bag and baggage, so those who make a career of speculating on matters political are turning their eyes aw­ay from Washington to find subjects for discussion. But all the discus­sion is still influenced by what hap­pened In the national capital before tho boys packed up and left.

One question looms large In the minds of both the public and polit­ical commentators: How substan-stantlally will Congressional action last session help business recovery?

Critics of Industry got in the first lick by claiming that Congress had "accepted industry's challenge" by making what legislative changes and reforms it did accomplish, and that now responsibility for complete and hasty recovery rests squoroly on the shoulders of business.

If this argument was supposed to make an impression, it missed fire rather badly. It was too easy to see the flaw In the argument that, af­ter ten years of experimentation and tinkering with the economic ma chlnery of the country on the part of the politicians. Industry should take heart the moment that signs of a change for the better made their appearance. Business knows, from experience painfully gained, that a 'iot remains to be done to put things back in good running order. Congress has a lot more con­structive work ahead of It next ses­sion if it really wants to be helpful.

When the significance of the steps taken In Washington last session are really thus placed clearly In perspective. It Is easy to see how absurd are tho claims of those who are screaming a challenge to bus­iness, ordering It to jbring about re­covery in the five months between Congressional sessions.

What confuses the spectators is this: Business Is expected to do something the challengers haven't been able to do In seven years!

Coincidence Note: The printed volume of the 1040 Federal budget weighs four pounds, seven ounces. That volume represents what the administration Is asking for to run the government for a year. The printed volume of the Federal tax laws, which represents what the government collects to run the gov­ernment for a. year, weighs only throe pounds^ one ounce.

Colncidentally, that is just 'about the difference between the amount of money collected and the amount spent.

An ingenious German chemist who has made trees edible says the possibilities along this line are un ­limited. Is it not possible that the holes might lend themselves readily for doughnuts?.

carry on the forward-looking pro, gram of Franklin D, Roosevelt, a man of the people, a man by the people, and a man for the people.

The time to form a Young Dem­ocratic Club Is now. The place Is Brantord. The reason, to support a party t ha t faces Issues as they arise—a party that does not at, tempt to give gigantic business in, terests the power of life and death

tlonary technique ,j,,ahead of the times nor follows a ' p a t h of reac­tion that attempts to solve-machlne age problems with methods In vo­gue during the hand loom and candle era.

The present Roosevelt Adminis­tration has fearlessly and courag­eously tackled problems concerning the welfare of the nation. I t was Inevitable tha t some toes have been trodden in the process. Tho day has definitely passed when lalssez faire or a "let everything alone" policy,Is useful. Roosevelt has made stren­uous efforts to save business from Its errors, a thankless job, but one which has done much to preserve Democracy In a world where Dem­ocracy Is rapidly disappearing.

To abolish the social reforms of the past few years, as the Republi­cans would undoubtedly do if elect ed In 1940 ,would lead to eventual Fascism. Why do I think so? Be cause under a Republican Adminis­tration big business would be given complete and free rein. A genej-al rise In prosperity would follow. The much sought for "confidence" would return. And why isn't this just what we all want? We do want It. But we want a stable and last­ing prosperity which this wouldn't be. The Improved business condi­tion that would follow a Republican term would be a short-lived one We would have a false prosperity, an insecure security

A Republican prosperity will do more than lull the country Into false security which will simply put off several years the basic problems we now are facing. A Republican regime would apply superficial pa tent medicines to a dangerously sick patient Instead of diagnosing the disease and prescribing the proper treatment as the New Deal is doing.

The nation's Ills are grave. Only treatment that get a t the" root of the His will effect a permanent cure. Business has demonstrated tha t it is no longer able to keep Its house In order. If It had been able to manage ins affairs.In the public In­terest there would not have been much of a depression. The solution does not lie In handing back to bus­iness unUmlted power to repeat Its own mistakes.

Anyone who Indulges In a little straight economic thinking would know tha t the Republican theory! of aiding the "blg'fellow" and thus, let benefits trickle down to the] little man" Is Ineffective In raising \

over the average American citizen.

NEWEST MAKE-Tjr DEVICE The a r t of make-up Is reaching

such a high point of perfection that cosmeticians now analyze the natural color of an Individual's skin In order to find the combina­tion of powder, rouge and lipstick which win achieve the most 'glam­orous results tor the face. A new device known as a spectro-dormas-cope Is used In this scientific analyy sis. It reveals color gradations In the skin not perceptible under or­dinary light. However, onob these subtle gradations are known tho beauty specialist can work out an in­dividual make-up which Is said to bring out the skn's best points.

Meantime, however, all Indica­tions are that business management Is moving ahead to the best of its ability, grateful for the encourage­ment that the Senator and Repre­sentatives have afforded by their actions and attitudes. Among the things that are most heartening to Industry, and that came out of this year's Washington legislative mill, tho defeat of tho spending bill, the tax revisions Incorporated In the Revenue Act of 1939, and social se­curity reforms may be listed as outstanding.

The collapse of the vast omnibus spend-lend "white -rabbit" was cheering to business because It ser­ved as an indication tha t Congress no longer Intends to run down the road with every spending program that is suggested. Business, which bears so large a part of the nation's tax burden, hopes fervently that this particular action by Congress Is the herald of a real economy drive at the following session.

The tax revisions made this year were not all tha t busines had hoped, but they were a step in the right di­rection. And tho amendments in social security requirements follow, ed fairly closely suggestions made by business long before the original bill was drafted, seemingly Indloat, ing that . In matters which touch business so closely, the lawmakers might save many unfortunate er­rors it they listened to buslnessmens' advice a little more often.

THEY SAY, 'In this time of subnormal econ­

omic activity. It Is of paramount Importance to encourage business and facilitate the exchange of goods byllghtonlng rather than heighten­ing the tax burden"—Non-Partisan Social Security Commission.

"Taxes are nothing more than a natural and inevitable reflection of the spending for, which they pro­vide the money. The cause is spend­ing. The effect is taxes. If our var-ous governmental bodies spend, they have to tax accordingly, whether the taxes are collected now or postponed for payment by our children and grandchildren"—Harry A. Bullls.

At the regular Sunday morning service last Sunday In the Church of Christ In Stony Creek, Rev. Kenneth Brookes paid tribute to Dr. Theodore A. Fischer In these words:

"I cannot allow August to slip by without paying tribute to a dear friend of this Church who passed away last September, Dr. Theodore Fischer. Dr. Fischer who for 32 years was the beloved pastor of the Unlyersalists Church New Haven made Stony Creek his summer homo. For a good many years he preached in this church on one Sunday in August. His many friends looked forward to his message each year knowing that his words came from God himself. When this church was without a minister Dr. Fischer performed many of the pas-tolal duties, cheering the sick, per­forming the marriage ceremony, be­friending the bereaved, and assis­ting at the burial service. I dare­say that Stony Creek misses Dr. Fischer as It misses no regular minister for down through the years he was always a friend in need."

When the weight of the building has been correctly distributed three trucks are used to pull it to its new site.

By this plan the J, Russell Mac-Arthur home, for Instance, was drawn about a half mile In two hours, furniture Intact.

Except for minor plaster cracks there were no mishaps. Oh, yes, one workman was treated for a silver in his hand.
