On the 9Th of August, 1925, a
nineteen-year-old youth was stood
against the wall of the Lemberg
prison and shot down by order of
the Polish Government.
The boy had killed an agent
provocateur, who had wormed his
way into the Polish Communist
Party and had been instrumental in
the arrest of number of Commu-
nists on charges involving the
death penalty.
The provocateur, Czechnowski, by
name, was to have appeared i'll court
as State witness, but on his en-
trance to the courtroom, a bullet
ended his wretched career.
Naftuli Botwin, young Commu-
mist, had resolved to execute the
spy. He was arrested on the spot.
Eight days later, the boy, Naftuli,
died a martyrs death.
On this incident the play, "Naf-
tuli Botwin," is constructed. "Naf-

one to be long remembered
AS the clocks hands reached the
hour OF midnight, trumpets called
attention to the birth of the New Year.

until the last note faded, then pande-
monlum broke out. Horns, bells,
rattleS, cymbals, every conceivable
noiSemaker was drafted into service
and at no time since November ii,
1918, when the guns became silent on
the western front, has such an ear
splitting racket been heard. It was
FULLY 10 minutes before anything like
normalcy was restored and 10 minutes
more before the music could be heard
above the commotion. Then followed
what very much resembled a marathon
dance, for dawn streaked through the
numerous windows before the dancers
reluctantly left the floor.

ner dance included Maj. Charles De-
monet, general chairman; Lieut.. Charles
Riemer, chairman of arrangements;
