"HENRIETTA" REPEATS
AT ROADSIDE THEATER
Play Is Screamingly Funny and
Actors Breathe Spirit
of Piece.

THE Roadside Theater last night
embarked upon a second week of
The Henrietta" batty old-time farce
which last week sent local critics of
into divers disSensions Of opinion.
One more vote with the ayes Is hereby
cast, for two major reasons-the play
and the manner in which the play Is
acted.
The Henrietta" Is an experience
which should not be missed. 1t dates
back a number OF decades-not as far
back as the whooping melodramas
these Roadsiders have done-but far
enough so that its dramatic manner
isms are completely obsolete and
therefore screamingly funny.
The play is about as suave as q
sledge-hammer and has something of
the finesSe of an unhappy hippopo-
tamus. Whenever any Of Author
Bronson Towards characters is about
to do anything he goes into a strange
interlude" with the audience. an
nouncing what he is about to do.
Then he does it, after which he takes
the audience into his confidence again
and tells them what he has done.
This style of playwriting and soma
dizzy lines and situations make The
Henrietta" something to see and
enjoy.
Denis Council and Ann Ives carry
of top honors with ease in the play
-
couples who are continually getting
mixed up over Henrietta-a name
signifying a race horse, ballet
dancer. a mining stock. and even at
one time is claimed by one Of the
players to be the wolf Of Wall
Street" Mr.. Connell and Miss Ives

Studio managers and producers get
inspirations. What they believe to be
a money making novelty Is often re-
garded as poison by the star. Crosby
has just finished a flrst-class bout
with his wife, Dixie Lee, who made up
her mind that she would co-star with
him in his next film. When Bling set
tied that little problem at home he
had the Swarthout puzzle to untangle
Swarthout is a good sport about the
whole matter. She hasn't muttered
at all about appearing with radio
crooner. In fact, she's proved herself
a good trouper, ready and willing to
do anything the studio suggests. Per-
haps she hasn't as much to lose-who
knows?
Local sheets are all in a other over
the fact that a secret probe of studio
producers reveals that scenario writer's
in Hollywood are of communistic
turn OF mind. It's a bit late for
studios to be making this discovery.
When the Communist conclave took
place in Cleveland a year and half
ago five of the highest paid writer's
in this business quit their jobs to an
swer the call of the colors.
The colors happened to be red, but
the studios-engrossed at that time
in other things-didn't happen to be
aware Of it.
Some of the authors came back
and slid into their desks again to Go
their bit. Others had a wider field
to work in and undoubtedly made as
much in it. as they did in their snug
studio berths.
Robert Benchley-"Bob to youse"-
is the only author-actor to make good
in a big way. Several have tried 1t
but few have the true comedy fair
of Benchley, whose first efforts were
too sophisticated for the movie audi
ences. Flicker followers have now
graduated into a more advanced vein
especially in comedy. Benchley,
who goes back to New York shortly,
will have the unique experience of
reviewing some Of his own efforts if
he wishes.

in interfering with their rights to govern their
state according to their state laws as provided
for in the Constitution of the United States which
all states pledged support. But they fail to attend

LOCAL BUSINESS CONDITIONS ARE
IMPROVING

So far this year the mountain country
has been free from disasters - which IS
usually the record of this favored section
and with the exception of the damage done
by the infantile paralysis scare, this coun-
try has been fairly prosperous and happy
according to prevailing standards. The
Summer tourist business was below the vol
ume expected at the opening of the season,
but many thousands of people came to the
mountains from other sections in spite or
business-devastating rumOrs; and the paral-
ysis scare having come to an end, the pres
ent indications are that the tourist business
will continue in large volume through the
Autumn The mountain country will enter
tain thousands of visitors during the next
three months and these will discover what
Autumn is in Western North Carolina.
In Hendersonville and the surrounding
country there is the promise of improved
business conditions from this time to the
end OF the year The level of the sections
supply of cash has been visibly raised by
the business of the Summer. Crops in Hen
derson and adjoining counties are fine. 1t
is said the corn crop in this section is the
best in many years. On the whole, the peo-
pie of town and country are experiencing
conditions which are distinctly improved IN
comparison with several past years.
Such changes as are taking place in the
direction of the restoration of so-calleC,
normal conditions are based on the efforts
of our own people, coupled with the bust
ness brought to this section by our tourist
patrons. Comparatively little federal gov
eminent money has been expended in this
section, in addition to that distributed for
relief, and the relief money this year has
been much less than the amount previously
expended. All of which, and more on SINH
lar lines, cOnvinces the observer of local
conditions that our people can and will
throw off the handicaps which have beset
them in late years and will restore condi-
lions of material prosperity and business
progress in this area of the mountain coun-
try.
