Post Road Due
On June 10

For the seventh week of the
National Theater Players season,
beginning Monday night, June 10,
the attraction will be the smash
mystery plat hit of the current
Broadway season, Post Road" l"
with Mary Young, of the original
company, as guest star.
post Road" in its eighth
month in New York at the Am
bassador Theater, will be pre-
sented for the first time in stock
for this Washington engagement.
It's original theme is so novel
that Will Hays forbade the movie
producers to bid for the screen
rights, since he felt it might give
bold, bad kidnapers some new
ideas. Later he modified this rul-
ing and permitted the producers
Messrs. Potter and Haight to re-
ceive Hollywood offers.
Post Road" is by Wilbur Dan
iel Steele and Norma Mitchell. It
starts out as folksy little drama
about some harmless country
people who run a roadside board
ing house on the highway be-
tween New York and Boston. The
play is about half over before
the audience discovers that it is
witnessing surprise after surprise.
1t would spoil the pleasure Of
those who will see this unusual
farce melodrama to reveal more
of the plot here.
Mary Young, who will have the
lead role, and who comes from
the original company, has had a
distinguished career in the the
ater, starring in the famous Har.
ward prize play, Believe Me Kan

post Road offers good roles
for the National Players roster.

Theater before a most appreciative
audience.
The specially composed musical
score, including such numbers as
"Rhumba," Music Soft" Don t

vry catchy lyrics and melodious,
toe-tapping tunes.
The fast moving and near eX'

Saturday when they filmed the
first sequence of Anchors

1900 officers at the Annapolis

men were trained to perfection
was it possible to obtain so great
an amount of "lock-her-up" film

year, the board already has issued 394
Class A licenses. Last year the board
issued only $50 permits Of this kind.
George w. Offutt, chairman Of the

any more retailers getting Class A
licenses this year Is very slim" He
said there are 28 such applications now
pending. and that the board would act
ON these. possibly approving several
of them.
He said the policy of the board was
adopted because the District already
