Play Will Open
 Tomorrow Night
"The First Mrs Fraser" to Be Presented By Little
 Theater Group

Tomorrow night at the Water
 bury Women's club the Little Thea
 tre of Waterbury will present "The
 First Mrs Fraser" by St John
 Ervine under the direction of
 Helen Schoeni. This is the open ing production of the Little Thea tres fourth season. The Little
 Theatre is now a well established organization with a record of pro- ducing plays of a high quality. | "The First Mrs Fraser" is a charm ing and witty play with amusing situations and good characteriZa- tions. It had a successful run in New York in the winter of 1929- 30. with Grace George and A.. F.
 Matthews in the leading roles. Miss Schoeni has been fortunate in as- sembling an unusually good cast for this play.
 Mrs George Morgan and Charles Shons, both connected with the faculty of Taft school, are making their debuts with the Little Thea tre. Mrs Morgan is better known
 as Nora Fauchald and her lovely soprano voice and charming per-
 sonality have delighted audiences here for several years. It will be interesting to see her perform in
 another medium. Mrs Morgan takes the Grace George role of the
 first Mrs Fraser. MT Shons will be
 remembered for his acting and
 singing as leading man in two Junior League shows in 1924 and E1925. AS those were musical com
 edies, this play will find him also in quite different role. He has the A. E. Matthews part of James
 Fraser, somewhat humorless
 Scotch gentleman in his early fif- ties.

Entertainment for Crippled Children Fund Promises Thrills

They say the American peoplc are easily bamboozled and lose q billion dollars a year through fra uduleLt schemes. In 1929 we were all on the sucker list and bought a lot of stock at high prices never realizing that what goes up must come down.
 To-day We are hard boiled. We want to know where our money goes and what we get for it. No more gold bricks for us.
 So that is the reason for this article. If you plan to help these crippled children of Waterbury and go. to their benefit performance next Thursday night at the Strand theater you want to know what you are going to get for your sev- enty-five cents.
 We will have to tell you for this picture of Alaskan Wild Life and the accompanying lecture by MT Pack has never been shown to the public before. It will soon tour the United States but 1t etarts off on Thursday night for the bene- fit of our Crippled Children.
 In the first place you will board 8 small chartered steamer with ', whale gun mounted on the bow. You will sail along the rugged fce- dreds of miles. You will go ashore from time to time and see the myriads of wild fowl as they nest and hatch their eggs. You will see wild deer. You vii hide behind some bushes by the side of a streari just alive with salmon and watch grizzly bears fish for their dinner. You will see the twin cubs, Booh and Pooh, as they waltz about on their hind legs to see what that funny clicking noise of the canl- era is. You will wish you were home when an ugly old fellow walks ten feet to you.
 Back on the steamer again you will thrill as whale IS harpooned by the crew or as they land DOT poise on the reck. You will be sca-sick during the. storm but you will have recovered by the time your party reaches the salmon streams where fish crowd each other out of water.
 The Black Hawk Troop of the local Boy Scouts will all but scalp you with an Indian War dance. The Mcndelssohn chorus will give you some good choral music. And of course there will be a few comic pictures just to relieve the tension caused by the wild Indians.
 There Is no doubt that you will get your moneys worth and a lit- tie more besides.
 The little more" is something that you can take home, but you can't put it on the mantel piece or show 1t to a friend. You can't see 1t or touch it but it will touch you.
 This something is the feeling of having helped a crippled child.

Duplicate, as you probably know iS q system whereby all of the play. CTS involved play. sooner or later the same cards. It leaves nothing to luck; after an evenings play. ol several evenings play, all players have held exactly the same hands Thus it af ords line on compar- ative abilities as nothing else can

 Friendly rivalries of this sort lead to many an interesting duph- ccte.. match, and With the element of luck eliminated, the result is de. termined by skill alone,

 With the advent of cooler weatr- CT, bridge, will take a more promi- nent part in our social lie.
 It presents a fascinating c2mbi- nation of skill and luck, but unfor- tunGtely the element of luc.i comc- times becomes predominert. Noth- ing is moro discouraginG than to sit at . bridge table all evening with FOOT cards, while your oppo- nents, who may be inferior players, hold the high cards and make mos. of the points.
 The best way to remedy this sit uation is to play duplicate bridge.
 To those whose bridge has been confined to rubber or progressive play, duplicate bridge opens vast w.feld. 1t provides thousand thrills never before known to the game, and adds ,immeasurably to the enjoyment of >America,s favor ite pastime.
 The bridge enthusiast who has not played duplicate Is in much the same position as the golfer who has perfected his strokes on an Tn door course, but has never tested them on, a real iairway.
 Duplicate bridge has always been the Ctandcrd game for tournament play, when experts assemble to compete for a national champion ship. Many people do not realize that it can be played with equal enjoyment by foursome in the home. It is adapted to auction or contract. and pi ovides splendid game for champion and beginner alike.
 Until recently, duplicate was ac- cessible only to the real bridge en- thusiasts, because the necessary duplicate trays were expensive and bulky. Now compact folding trays are available at low cost. and a score pad containing the necessary forms and complete instructions for home duplicate play can Dc. purchased at almost any bridge, counter. The alert hostess will welcome a departure from the us- ual bridge game. and can ensure her guests many pleasant evenings by introducing them to duplicate,

A century old today-the procla-
nation, not the young lady.
Miss Maryellen Beale. 3041 Grace
land avenue, is shown holding a
copy of a proclamation issued by
Andrew Jackson, President of the
United States in 1882, replying to
South Cardinals attempted multi
fication of the tariff act of 1882.
The proclamation is printed on
linen cloth. 1t is owned by Mrs
Gay VanNostram, 3035 Graceland
avenue.
The tariff of 1882 was aimed at
pacifying the south in its protest
against the famous Tariff of Abom-
nations" of 1928. 1t failed, how
ever, and South Carolina declared
it unconstitutional at the same tins
announcing its intention of nullify-
ing the act.
Jackson's fiery reply in the proc
lamation declared that any attempt
at notification would be met with
arms if necessary.
1t was in this proclamation that
he made his famous assertions, THE
Union must be preserved" and Our
country shall be defended"
The statement, issued Dec. 10,
1882, had its effect. South Carolina
backed down after Jackson's firm
stand. However, congress capitu-
lated and passed the compromise
tariff Of 1888, calling for a general
reduction of 20 per cent.
