Dick Powell gets here the 21st.
What will Dick do? Sing, play. hoof
or tell stories? Will he have a band?
Or will he have Mary Brian? How
about Ruby Keeler? Let's wire Al

He came down here once at this

better half would come, too.
Steve Cochran says that he knows
nothing about Spring Freshet." But
then, who does? It's in rehearsal now.
What former usher at R-K-O

A(CdL NIL ANdbAAoAs
Those converted horsehouses, dra-
matte hot dog stands, ETC., the Sum-
nler theaters, have this year indeed
been, as you aptly put it in recent
magazine article, in profuse bloom.
Such of them as have really been dis
playing 'amateurish productions, cheap
taste and trivial plays did not dis
courage Winter attendance upon the
reputable professional theater, as you
fear, for the simple reason that prac-
tically nobody was there. I assure
you that the Summer playgoer is the
same kind Of animal as the Winter
playgoer; he won't spend dollar to
see bad show, not even if the Sum
nler evening is boresome. If he went
every week from force OF habit, as
you city folks seem to imagine, that
would be the Summer theater man
ayers dream of heaven. But, as a
matter of fact, the rural telephone
begins to buzz at every Tuesday
morning, and by noon the fate of
the weeks bill has been decided.
Summer theater has to put on a good
show If it is to live. Or (since in
this instance you are, it appears, an
absentee critic) you may figure it
out by induction If the audience
didn't, by and large, have a good
time, there would be no Summer
theaters for you to complain of
"You are especially distressed by
the apprehension that the Summer
theater has in the past three years
not produced a single new stage di-
rector of discernible talent or found
q single new young actress Of talent,
or any actor worth mentioning save
Tony Selwart. Yet I am sure you
have discerned some talent in Ar
thur Sircom. Arthur j. Beckhar5,
Henry Potter and Howard Lindsay,
not to mention Herbert Biberman,
who sharpened his tools at the
Hedgerow, and Leo Bulgakov. who
made the trip from Moscow to
Broadway via White Plains and Sur
rey.
+And aren't you a little rough on
katharine Hepburn, Francesca Brur-
ing, Shepperd Strudwick, Jane Wyatt,
Elizabeth Young, Peggy Conklin,
Burgess Meredith, Sally Bates. Bre-
taigne Wlndust, Richard Whorf, Carol
Stone, John Beal, Henry Fonda and
Florence Williams, all of whom got
the bulk of their early training i'll
Summer theater and have been
produced by it within the past
years? Or to go back a bit further,
Barbara Robbins, Lloyd Nolan, Mar
garet SULLIVAN and Alexander Kirk
land? And might remind you how
charmingly Dorothy Gish return ID
from Hollywood to Broadway by way
Of Summer theater? 3 .
What Summer theater's real con-
tripution is you know as we'll as I.
1t is the opportunity for actors and
directors to try out their talents in
o dozen plays n the Summer, as
against one Tor none) in the Winter.
When you, in your judicious old age,
Il ever, come to evaluate the actors Of
your time, you viii probably find that
the fresh, plant, precise work of the
younger generation derives largely
from Summer theater training"
X x*
THE above applies so obviously to
our happily successful Roadside
Players that we trust they will derive
benefits therefrom. But we print it
also with this hope in mind-namely
tnat when next Summer rolls around
again. now that these players have
planted themselves in the sun, they
VIII become even more serious in their
work, and when they have had their
Ill OF melodramaS and such like. will

Watch and Clock

Peter Henlen or Hele of Nuremberg
is given credit for the invention Of
the handspring. which made watches
possible, about the year 1900. One Of
the Oldest watches in existence is one
made In that city in 1850 or earlier.
1t is impossible TO say when or by
whom the first clock was made. It
has been claimed for the Chinese,
about 1000 B. G. There is a general
belief that Gerbert, the famous scholar
who became Pope Sylvester II, was
nrst TO construct q mechanical clock
for the Magdeburg cathedral in DOG A.
ID. One Of the Oldest clocks in the
world was built by Henry De Wick in
1854 and is now in the Palais de JUS
tice In Paris.
