Walker does this. I realize and ap.
preciate his artistic worth. He is an
asset to any city. We could not at
ford to lose Walker and his company
I believe the public will support
the really good things OF the theater,
but those good things must be what
the public wants. Mr.. Walker has a
big field of plays to draw from. 1
remember 1.-THE Detour," which he
presented here last summer with Aid
rich Bowker and Judith Lowry, did
not draw the business it deserved.
We who write of the theater know
one big fact-that a stock company's
problem is different from road pro-
Queer. I believe 1t will be an easy
matter for Mr.. Walker to discover
what Louisville will support. I am
convinced he knows what Indianapolis

The play is the thing. The public
knows what It wants. The public will
support only what it wants.
The producer and the public must
get closer together.
