A basket ball team could be COM

these players were able to pass and

In college Love-" now showing at

exactly what happens between the
coach and the players in the clubhouse
and how at the midfield "huddles"
spectacular plays are planned.
All the coach's exhortations to his
team In the clubhouse, picturesque with
vivid conversation, aimed at this player
and that, are brought out both in dia-
1ogue and photography. The effect Is
exactly as, though the audience was
present, seeing and hearing everything
the coach says or does to put new life
into his team. -.
It is virtually a. lesson in foot ball
explaining why the players on the field
group themselves into huddle just
before they attempt play; how the
signals are given. what they say, and
an insight into all the quick, staccato
decisions with which they determine
the. course of the ball from start to
finish In big game.

Who Is Rudy Vale?

He hasn't time for hobbies or sports,
but was once an expert swimmer, and
that developed his lungs and helped
amazingly in his saxophone technique,
and he plays several varieties of saxo-
iphones. including the dificult baritone,
and the clarinet. Also he knows what
to expect of the other instruments In an
orchestra.
It isainteresting to know that Rudy
hasn't any Of the tricks Of the Broad
way band leaders. He doesn't wear O
freak hat, nor twirl o cane, but stands
in the middle Of his orchestra, quite at
ease. and oblivious Of the dancing crowd.
He uses no baton and does not pump his
arms up and down. He uses o mega
phone before he sings-and closes his
eyes And always takes some time to
adjust his saxophone before he begins
to play it.

plays are chosen with good taste.
In the course of an unusually active
career the guild has had its share OF
failures, but in every instance where
piece has proved unpopular the New
York Theater Guild survived with flags
flying. No one has ever accused it of
ever offering production that offended
intelligence; none has ever limited that
the guild produced a play just t. keep
a theater lighted or actors employed.
While others have been decrying the
state of the theater outside New York.
the New York Theater Guild has step
ped out and proved that good plays. well
acted and mounted, can be probably
presented. Handicapped by a lack OF
legitimate theaters in smaller commune

The fact remains that while others are
