 Because We have been advertis ing the play for the past six months as q part of our coming season at the Hollis street theater. We find it hard to believe that if the city gov ernment had any such intentions, we should not have heard of it earlier.
 70SO Have Subscribed
 Some 70S0 Boston members of the Theater Guild have subscribed to see Strange Interlude, and will. we feel, be greatly disappointed if we are prevented from fulfilling our promises"
 It was believed representatives of the Theater Guild might seek an in terview with Mayor Nichols later this week in an effort to swerve him from his stand in opposition to the play.
 In May, 1928, O'Neil was award cd the S1S00 Pulitzer prize for Strange Interlude." as the Amer ican play performed in New York best representing the educational value and power of the stage in raising the standard of good morals good taste and good manners"
 The play is unique in that it starts at 5:3O in the afternoon, with an in termission at 7:45 to allow the audi cnce a respite for dinner. At D.. m., the performance is resumed.
