 NICE, France, Dec. 7.-Eugene Brieux, French playwright, aged "A years, died here yesterday as a. result of pleurisy.
 The fame of Eugene Priex as a dramatist was spread around the world by Damaged Goods" which tflrived on censorship and agitat- ed discussion.
 Briex was social crusader. He fought slums and d7ssected morals. Although a bachelor until late in life, protection of the family was the basis of his creed.
 Few denied the greatness he achieved in the theatre Many criticised his dramatic craftsman ship as ill-suited to the drama. Others decried his messages as leading nowhere.
 Made World Think
 All, it would seem, acknowledged his force, for their objections proved he made the world serious ly think of what should be done about many evil things.
 Born in the old Temple district of Paris, January 19, 1858, Briex

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Dec. T. - Pert little Mary Carlisle is begin ming to hit an effective stride in her Cinderella march from ob- scurity to recognition.
 Without stage training, without movie experience, she came to Hol- lywood with her mother from Bos- ton, her home city, and began a saucy rapping at the doors of casting directors offices.
 Two of three years ago she had her first screen test, inspired by a lunch in a studio restaurant where she was seen by Carl Laemmle, Jr. The test never brought anything It was too awful" says Mary.
 Not long after that she obtained a job in dancing chorus at M- G-M. It was break" that al- most proved her undoing.

 In the dancing chorus at the same time was Ann Dvorak, who hadn't been able to dance either when she began and Ann helped Mary learn the steps Ann's rise to fame, once it began, was swift CT than Mary's has been, but Mary is pushing along, taking whatever parts and even bits she can get, and liking it.
 In her first film parts, Mary be- gan stealing scenes, and recently there were those who contended she all but stole Down to Earth from Will Rogers, the star.

COMMUNICATION

JUNEAU, Alaska, Dec. 2. 1932-- To the Editor: An Open Season on Waterfowl of Ninety Days:-
 Since the dry season of 1881, which covered a large portion of the interior of the United States proper, there has been curtail- ment in the length of the hunting season on waterfowl in Alaska. During the open season of thirty days in 1881 more Alaskan sports men went hunting for ducks and geese at more frequent intervals and for longer hunting trips and probably more birds were killed than in any year prior to that time This year the open season was extended to sixty days.
 At the present time the Alaska Game Commission is in quandry as to how it is going to bring about a change in the opening ct the waterfowl season in Southeast Alaska It seems to have accepted the sixty-da season as permanent.
 It has always been one of the major compensations to those of us who live in Alaska, that we live a freer, a less restricted life, by virtue of our small population scattered over, this immense Ter ritory, than people living in the United States proper. If it be the object of the Alaska Game Con- mission to impose upon us. those regulations which are applicable to the densely populated areas of the States; then we would be better off if there were no Alaska Game Commission. As Alaskans see it the Alaska Game Commis- sion was created for the purpose of preventing the extinction of any and all forms of wild life in any and all areas of Alaska.
 A ninety-day open season on waterfowl in the Territory of AL aska is practical. It gives the people in all areas of Alaska the opportunity to hunt waterfowl during the fall migration favor ing no section

was the son of a carpenter. With the death of his parents when he was about IA, he left school and pieced out his sketchy education with much reading and diligent study. Then he became an incon- sequential bank clerk.
 It was Brieux's intention to be his own teacher, following school courses, but he surrendered in the face of Greek grammer. He turned to books as his passionate pleasure rather than a severe duty and throughout his life reading and reflecting were his principal occu- pations. When young he did his reading at night on the sidewalk benches, under lamp-posts to en- onomize his candles.
 Peddled His Plays
 At IT, Brieux became a play wright overnight. Then a friend told of him he peddled his plays about Paris for ten years with but little success. He never forgot that Emile Augier, whom he re- garded with awesome reverence, returned his manuscript unopened. zola, the novelist, who later be- came his friend, answered Brieux's S plea for aid with: Young man, poverty is an excellent teacher To help you would be to hurt you !" In after years when success had come his way, Brieux never forgot Elhis own hardships and the mem ory Of them made him kind to young writers.
 Brieux's fame as a dramatist was consecrated by his election in 1910 to the Academic Francaise, Frances Forty Immortals" of lit erature. In his address welcom- ing him there he was described as having championed sound morals as against folly, and the family as against chaos" He also was hon. ored with the decoration of Com mander of the Legion of Honor. AS a social crusader Brieux fought for the maintenance of the old and tested standards, but cleansed and rejuvenated rather than for the substitution of new ideas and new morals.
 
 Made People Think His was the problem play" serious and usually sad. He scorn- ed the happy ending. Seldom did he solve the problem for his au- dience, but his critics conceded he made people think.

WASHINGTON FETE
IN 1882 DESCRIBED
Centennial Celebration Pic.
tured by A. c. Clark Before
Historical Society.

How the Capital paid tribute to
George Washington 100 years ago, on
the occasion of the centennial celebra-
ton Of his birth, was described to the
Columbia Historical Society last night
by its president, Allen G. Clark.
Some half a hundred members Of the
society, meeting in the assembly room
at the Cosmos Club, heard Mr. Clark
quote from the diary of John Quincy
Adams and describe brilliant centen-
nial banquet held at then-famouS
hotel and addressed by Daniel Webster,
famous orator.
The celebration Of 1882. like that Of
the present year, included many balls
and social functions attended by bril-
liant assemblages..
Mr.. Clark introduced James F. Du-
hamel, who traced the history of Ana
lostan Island and Belvoir, a famous
Colonial estate. the site of which is
now occupied by Fort Humphrey.
Nothing remains of the mansion
built by John Mason, son of George
Mason of Gunston Hall, on Analostan
Island, or of that built at Belvoir in
l740 by the relatives of Lord Thomas
Fairfax.
There are bills before Congress,
however, Mr.. Duhamel said, for the
Government as a Roosevelt memorial
and for the restoration of Belvoir
Mansion as an officers dwelling at Fort
Humphrey.
Referring to the Fairfax family, which
once lived at Belvoir, where George
Washington met Lord Fairfax and OBJ
tanned his first commission as a sur
veyor, Mr.. Duhamel said that George
William Fairfax, the granddaughter Of
Lord Thomas Fairfax and son of the
first owner and builder of the mansion,
was few years older than Washington
and his sister had married Lawrence
Washington.
1.-TWO Of the Fairfax boys had died
in the British service, one in the Navy
and the other in the Army, at Quebec.
With this martial association, there IS
little wonder that Washington should
have aspired at an early age TO mill
tary honors, and that the influence was
great is evinced by his own statement
that he regarded Belvoir as his second
home"
The speaker asserted Washington's
association with the Mason family was
stimulating influence on his growth
as statesman. It was George Mason,
Mr.. Duhamel said, who acquired Ana
lostan Island and left it to his son,
John Mason, later to become one of
the most influential men in the first
10 years of existence of the City of
Washington.
During this tine," Mr. Duhamel said,
John Mason was the commander of
the militia, president CT the first Dis
trict of Columbia Bank and eventually
owner of the Foxall or Columbia Foun-
dry that supplied our Government with
thousands Of cannon between 1900 and
1850"
Mr.. Duhamel told how Capt. John
Smith was said to have passed Analos-
tan Island while navigating the Poto-
mac River to Little Falls, and traced
