Shakespeare Play
Is Presented on
MonumentLot

"A Midsummer Nights Dream,
Shakespeare'S immortal comedy,
is a crowning achievement in the
repertoire of the Washington
Community Players. Presented
last evening at the Sylvan theater,
before thousands of attentive and
appreciative persons, gathered
on the slopes of the Monument
grounds, the delightful drama
was a complete success from
every viewpoint.
A perfect night and a perfect
setting, the group gave quite
flawlesS exhibition of dramatic
and terpsichorean skill. Miss BeSS
Davis Schreiner, to whom credit is
due for the extreme ease and per-
fection which characterized the
whole performance, deserves un-
told commendation.
Bottom, 8 weaver, played by
Jesse Veitch, was the outstanding
actor, making of smaller part,
a perfect one, but then again
PUCK" as played by Howard Whit
field may be the one who stood
out from all the others. Then
again Lysander and Demetrius,
the lovers, Herman Reiss and
John Kendrick, were splendid and
the lovely blond, Helena, and
Hernia, the daughter of Egeus,
Cynthia Hathaway and Adele
Whiteside, were both delightfully."-
convincing as the loved maidenS.
Nancy Hall, queen of the fairies,
and John Lloyd Sikkon, Oberon,
the king, added immeasurably to
the picturesque interludes. And
so, a large and competent cast, all
heaped laurelS upon the success
full and charming fantasy. And
once again the words of wisdom
of the greatest of all English
dramatists enthralled rapt au-
dience.
Tonight a repetition of the play
is scheduled at 8 o'clock at the
Sylvan stage or in case of rain at
the auditorium of the Central
School. Immediately thereafter,
Miss Schreiner announces that the
group rehearses for the next two
presentations, Juvenile Festival
on Friday, August 3, and "Alice
in Wonderland" on Wednesday
evening, August 8. H. K.

The Washington times., 1934-07-31

dear boy, that you will always
be my great love. Because Of
Franklin F. Fossilbottom will
cannot marry you. Were it not
for my duty to him, I would
marry you today. You are first
in my heart-but second in line.
''You understand. Don't you,
Harry dear?"
The lifeguard nodded.
"Sure, Louise kid" he replied,
showing you what a week will
do. II gotcha. You got me
runnin' around in circles, too.
But I gotta tell you"
What our bronzed friend had
to say was abruptly postponed.
For at that precise moment,
Mr.. Franklin F. Fossilbottom
appeared upon the scene. A
nervous little man, he pecked
at Miss Brown and then mo-
toned toward the ocean. The
lifeguard he ignored entirely.
"Going in for a dip, dear, !"
he said. "You will wait here
until I return. Then we will go
home together"
He walked to the water and
stepped in with mincing steps.
Then, clumsily, he fell under a
wave and began to swim out
with the breast stroke.
"Oh, DEAR" Louise moaned.
did you ever see such a ter
rible swimmer and such a
funny man? And when I think
Of you, Harry-oh, dear!"
II don't blame you, baby"
said Harry. "Some squirrel
you picked for yourself. I amt
never seen"
That was as far as he
reached. For the lifeguard was
running suddenly in the direc-
ton of the water. Mr.. Fossil
bottom was yelping for help
and waving wildly toward
shore. He had gone beyond his
depth and the tide was carrying
him farther out all the time.
Harry was swimming toward
him now. Swimming strongly.
Mr.. Fossilbottom went down
once. The lifeguard slowed
down a trifle. Mr.. Fossilbottom
went down twice. The life
guard Spurted again. And just
as Mr.. FoSsilbottom was going
under for the third time, Harry
caught him by the hair, hit
him on the chin-and brought
him safely back to shore.
AS the doctors worked on Mr..
FoSSilbottom, Louise dragged
Harry to one side.
"Oh, darling" she whispered,
"you're such a hero. You did a
wonderful thing in saving Mr..
FoSSilbottom but, after all,
was it so wonderful? While
you were swimming toward him,
didn't you remember my words?
1 SAID CnaC, II he were gone, l
would marry you."
Our hero scratched his head.
yeah" he said, IT remem-
bered. And was gonna let
him go, too. But when I seen
him goin' down for the third
time, I changed my mind.
after all, grille, if I married
you, my wife and four kids
would raise an awful lot Of
hell" -

THE Miss Brown
AS we meet her in the flesh
for the first time she is sitting
on the exclusive sands of the
Bigwig Beach Club, on the New
Jersey Coast.
And whom do you think this
far-famed young lady is calling
young and manly and hand
some? Surely, you will say, it
must be the Baron Won PusSface.
Or perhaps it is Algernon
Whizzlepizzle, son of the horse
meat king. But you are wrong.
The young man is none other
than the lifeguard at the Big
wig Beach Club!
1.-THE names Axstel," he re-
turned, as I shift my lenses
without the slightest hesitation.
Harry Axstel. And thanks for
all them sweet woids, lady,"
you're NICE" she whispered.
"Sweet, really. I'm going to be
here an entire week, alone. I do
hope We'll see a lot of each
other"
"Sure, lady. Sure. I'm here
whenever you want me. When
ever you feel like chinnin' just
squat yourself alongside Of me.
You're an okay kid"
An okay kid! Delicious shiv-
ers raced up and down Miss
Browns charming spine. Never
had anyone spoken to her this
way.
Harry" said Miss Brown
suddenly, "do you know my
fiance? The man, I mean, that
my family wants me to marry?
Franklin F. Fossilbottom?"
The lifeguard looked per-
picked. Then his face bright
ened.
"Oh, yeah. I know the gink
you mean, now. I seen him
here wit you yesterday. He's
a skinny runt wit a consti-
pated look on his kisser. Is
that the bozo?"
Miss Brown swallowed has
tily.
IF you please, Harry. Mr..
FoSsilbottom is the man I am
going to marry. I'll trouble
you to be a little more re-
Spectful."
"Aw, nuts" said the hand
some lifeguard.
The heiress closed her eyes
and moved a trifle closer to
the lifeguard. This was life in
the raw. Perhaps he would
hit her next. He had said
