 Rehearsals have been progress ing famously. People wno nave seen them have been mucn ln- pressed by the ability of the cast. In particular, Mrs John Castle (who will again have charge Q, the makeup this year) remarkeu that she had considered '"The flrsI Mrs Fraser" too difficult a 1ob TOT amateurs to do well, but that she had now changed her opinion upon seeing this particular group or amateurs and felt that the play was sure to be a success.
 The building crew have com pleted the scenery and this week end. Miss schoeni, assisted by Miss Barrett and Mrs Wood will hnlsn the painting. We are always giad to know that Mis- Schoeni has agaln donned her paint-splotched overa!is and her old felt hat with the bright mink rose, for then we feel that the Little Theater season is really un- der way.
 Has anyone a small grand plano which they would be willing to rent to the Little Theater for this pro- duction? The Little Theater would attend to the trucking to and fro and 1t would be handled like the crown Jewels. It will also be cov- cred by insurance. If you wish to be a real philanthrophist call Miss Marie German about this. (Phone 3-8932.)

West shows out, discarding a spade. The declarer plays 8 small club which East wins with the king.
 East returns the jack of spades and declarer takes the finesse, West winning the trick with the king. A spade is returned by West and won hy the declarer with the ace. y
 Declarer's next play is the queen of diamonds and East must refuse to win-otherwise the de- clarer can get into the dummy with the king of diamonds and finesse the hearts. The jack of diamonds is next led by the de- clarer and again East refuses to win. The third diamond is won by East with the ace.
 He cannot return a heart or the declarer will finesse, so he leads the nine of clubs.
 The declarer is down to the queen, ten and one heart, and a diamond. Dummy has three spades and d heart. Would you discard the diamond and trump in dummy with the nine of hearts? If so, you will find that you have &ne too many trump in your hand and cannot pick up East's jack.
 The proper play at this point Is to get rid of your three of hearts - trump this club with the three of hearts and overtrump 1t in dummy with the nine of hearts:
 Now you can lead the ten or spades, East will discard a club and you will discard your good diamond. When you lead the seven of spades. eEast will b forced to trump with the eight or hearts and you can overtrump with the ten and pick up the jack with the queen, and in this man ner make your contract or TOUT odd.

RECORD CROWDS THRILL TO JOAN CRAWFORD'S NEW TRIUMPH "RAIN" NOW AT THE STATE

capacity audiences attending the local presentation of Joan Craw. ford's new sensational hit "Rain" at the State, proclaim 1t to be the greatest dramatic triumph of the wear and unquestionably the finest performance of this inimitaDle star. .
 The startling feature is that the role of Sadie Thompson Is an en- tirely new departure for Miss Crawford. Never before in her great gallery of portrayal has she essayed one like it, and yet there IS probably no actress in Hollywood -or on the stage either, for that matter-who could approximate the artistry she displays.
 Joan Crawford had come to De known as the exponent of the mod- ern girl, she been known as the perfectly-groomed sophisticate. But here she is portraying character of another generation, a young
 woman of questionable morals, and
 she does it as if she had been do- ing this soyt of portrayal from the first.
 "Rain," of course, has had the advantage of production by Lewis Milestone, that surprising director. producer who gave us "All Quiet on the Western Front" "The Front Page" and other masterpieces. And "Milly" could not possibly pro- duce an indifferent film. Besides which, the brimstone-smelling mis- sIonary is portrayed by Walter Huston, one of the best characher actors upon stage and screen, and William Gargan, last seasons
 Broadway stage sensation, has the role of the young marine sergeant. So, you may ask, how could the picture go wrong? By all means make 1t a definite point to see "Rain" before 1t closes at the State tomorrow evening. You are in for one of the most de- Iightful cinema treats of the ucr- rent season, topped off by pro-
 gram of short subjects that is most
 commendable.
 Wednesday brings another super production to the State in the pre-
 sentation of the sensational New York and London hit "A Bill of lDiyorcement" starring John Barry more with Katherine Hepburn,
 Hartford, Conn, girl, Bile Burke (Mrs Flo Ziegfeld) and David Man nerS.

Green Pastures
 at Shubert Nov 7
Depicts Rise and Fall of
 Mankind

"The Green Pastures" Pulitzer prize play, and the most widely discussed stage offering of our times, will have It's first New Ha- ven performance at the Shubert theater on November 7th.
 Drama and musical enthusiasts have awaited with patience the local advent of this splendid play. It's world premiere occurred at the Mansfield theater, New York, on February 26. 1880, and $40 con- secutive performances were regis tered before 1t departed from Broadway for Chicago. At the Ilh- nois theater in the latter city, the play achieved a run of 160 per- formances, a brave record for these days of meager support for the theater. The play is now at the beginning of its third season, and still such sizeable municipalities as Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Detroit, Cleveland, Baltimore and Washing ton have not witnessed the work. Five full years will be required, ac- cording to the sanguine estimates of Rowland Stebbins, its owner, for the Marc Connolly fable to fulfill its entire nationwide bookings. And by that time (1935) 1t is coptem- plated to play return engage ment in New York.
 In eighteen scenes "The Green Pastures depicts the rise and fan of mankind as viewed by the sim pie plantation darky of the Old South. Marc Connolly. the author. found the basis for his play in Roark Bradford's collection of ne- gro stories, "Op Man Adam and His Chillun," and the piece is en- acted by a negro cast of more than a hundred, which includes the Heavenly Choir" the latter rendering spirituals which are in- terwoven with the plays dramatic action.
 The outstanding figure in the big cast is Richard E. Harrison, who plays "the Lawd," and Is revered as a sort of diety by the other members of the company. He was a professional play reader before he undertook this role. a Shakes pearean scholar, who made his home in southern California and was a familiar figure in club, church and chatauqua entertain ments, and taught at various negro educational institutions in the southern states.
 Sixty-eigh years of age, MT Har- rison will celebrate his 1088th per- formanee in "The Green Pastures" when tho play has its New Haven premiere on November 7th. Other prominent players In the huge cast are Salem Tut Whitney, Daniel L.. Haynes, Alonzo Henderson, Susie sutton and Doc Doe Green. the latter portraying the role of "Ghb- rIel," vacated through the death last February of Samuel Davis. MT Green is the sole member or the cast who was not in the play when it opened in February, 1880.
