FOUR PLAYS
SELECTED IN
TOURNAMENT
Local Dramatic Groups
HOnored BY Entering
Contest Finals.

Four entrants in the Community
Center one-act play tournament have
been selected to participate in the
hnal contest tomorrow night.
Thirty Minutes to Co." written by
Ted Tiller, I'd, and performed by the
Man-Tilla Players; -Four Who Were
Bind" done by the Washington Com
munity Players; What They Think" j"
by the Troupers of East Washington
Community Center, and AN Emer-
gency Cace," by the Masquers of Sligo
Park Hills, were selected from the pre-
Ilmlnary contests by Judges w. D..
Boutwell,. William Lee Corbin, Elsie
Herman, Maud Howell Smith and Nc
Fall Kerbey. The announcement was
made following the presentation of the
last four plays last night at Roosevelt
High School Auditorium.
-Four Who Were Blind" the one
selection from last nights group, was
outstanding in theme, in direction and
IN fine playing by group of Wash
ington's better amateurs. The story of
the effect of a mysterious miracle
worker, who turns water to wine, on
q pair of British soldiers stationed in
Palestine, was placed well by Director
Frank Baer and performed admirably
by such stalwarts as John Sikken,
George harrington, Jesse Veitch, Her
ma Reiss and Robert Halstead.
The Community Players were fol-
lowed by the Women's City Club
Drama Unit with a piece entitled
Lady Fingers" detailing the manner

His Children" a cogent religious
drama transpiring during an orthodox
Jewish mourning period and involving
three children and rabbi who speaks

Jewish Community Center Dramatic
Society. 1t was played smoothly by
Ruth B. Palmer. Milton A. Halpern
Joseph Klein, Milton o. Hirschfleld
and Sol Hersh. Hannah Stolar di-

are made Of the instruments, notably
the Duetto" for trombone and
double bass in the "Vivo'' movement.
The entire work scintillates with
brightness and Wvacity with an oc-
casional romantic indication in the
"Serenata," the "Gavotta con 2 vari-
azioni" and the "Minuetto." In spite
Of Mr.. Klemperer's personal clearness
Of plan, the orchestra did not re-
spond in the manner we have grown
to expect Of this splendid organiza-
ton and did little beyond giving It a
first sight reading. Although the
polish in performance was missing,
the audience caught the amusing i'm
plications and was hearty In its re-
sponse.
In Beethoven's famous 'Eroica,"
however, both orchestra and con-
ductor rose to rare heights. The
strength and sturdiness of this work,
which has no equal, stood out with
overwhelming conviction. while the
pattern of the music under Mr. KLEIN
perer's indications resolved into clear
er units that were rewoven with
sympathetic skill. Perhaps a certain
poetry and human warmth was lack
ing, but from Mr.. Klemperer's view
point it was convincingly analyzed
and played with beauty of tone and
sensitive musical perception.
The audience attempted several
times during the program to express
its appreciation Of the new conductor
work, but it was not until the end of
the program that he would permit
the long continued applause to recall
him time and again in acknowledge
ment. Then the public gave rein to
its enthusiasm and real ovation was
accorded the guest conductor.
