in. the Charles F'rohnlan production OF
Ferenc Molnar's fanta site comedy at
the National Theater during the week
of September 81, has n marked facility

sized in connection with his career

which Gilbert Miller selected him for
the role of the madly jealous husba nd

IN the play. ~.
1t Is little known. however. that Mr..
Young's facility in fantasy is not linn
tied to acting, for he has devoted much
time to the development of modern
stage technique In lighting and. set.
tings and devised the details of some
of the plays IN which he has been
prominent. ~
My, interest In this feature OF stage
productions is fairly recent .matter.n y

find the organization increased in

Pittston for New
State Aid Road

TO those who have interested
themselves in the proposed state aid
road between Lewiston and Rockland
via Gardiner, it will be of especial
worth to know the present status of
the situation. Lewiston has given
it's support to the project, Seba titus
was unanimous in granting it, Wales
agreed with them, and West Gardi-
ner, Gardiner, Randolph are for it
strongly.
There has been some misunder-
standing about the attitude of the
town of Pittston resulting from the
report that the article calling for an
appropriation was dismissed. This
was done because the money could
not be used on a third class road
Pittston has assured the local Board
of Trade that the town is solidly be &.
hind the movement and will do all
possible to insure it's success. White
field has guaranteed one mile of
road, jefferson three, and Waldo
boro three miles.
