superb and the viewpoint of this Ibsenian comedy as fresh now as 1t was half a century ago. For the pr. stockman, who is its chief pro- tagonist stiIl symbolizes the rare nobility that thrtves in a hypo- critical, corrupt crucible of human ity. There are, however, two schools of reaction to the Hainpden per- formance. One that worships at its art, the other that can't see 1t at all. Both schools are now fighting 1t out.

 New York.-Arthur Kober is the Boswell of the Bronxite and has re- corded the lives of those dialectic denizens uptown in many huncr- ous piece for the weekly magazines. Now he has put together his impres- sions tenderly and affectionately In a comedy called Having Wonder full Time" and Marc Connolly has produced 1t, with equally tender af- lection, in Daniel Frohmail'S TaOnu- mental playhouse, the Lyceum. ..j
 But Mr. Kober has shifted the locale this time to the Bronx, sum- mer home in the Catskills, where there is reputed to be an Adult Camp to every acre and a match makers marriage to every quarter mile. Here, in the verdant but taw- dry confines of Camp Kare-Free. he thrusts the nature lovers from Grand Concourse. Here, they awake and sing after last nights lark and coo a cheery shalom aleichem. Or make a good catch" in husband during a two weeks vacation.
 And in this kosher setting, the author has placed two young people, more sensitive than all the rest of Life and Love and the Pursuit of Happiness. Both are Saturdays Children, tormented on their day of rest by love sickness. They are Ter die Stern and Chick Kessler, and their tattered little romance is re- corded poignantly by the Messrs. Kober and Connolly and the players.
 For the rest is an exercise in "Abie's Irish Rose" diction and an excursion into the Bronx soul on summer leave. Some may find the indigenous humor hilarious, others may be depressed as was this de- partment. Not, however, by the deeply understanding performances rendered by the Two Young People, Katherine Locke and Jules Garfield.
 Up to Broadway from the en- virons of Union Square, the militant Theater Union has brought John Howard Lawson's soapbox drama, Marching Song" Its capital vs. labor them is as red hot. as the its battlefront a sit-down strike in an automobile town. With blazing anger and hate, Lawson paints a large and bloody canvas of the labor front, bringing into his indictment the prevalence of race war pingoism, the de- ficiency of federal relief, unemploy- ment, ct al.
 His segment of the class struggle takes place in an abandoned fac- tory where union organizer stirs the strike cauldron to a trouble boil. And also where ruthless strike

 Marching Song" is a strident play, shrieking the injustice done to the proletariat in an industrial center of the United States. It pulls no punches, begs no quarter and travels under no false guise; 1t is propaganda.

It's the time Of the year when
the pheasants have a tough time
rustling their grub. Old Dad
Pheasant goes out and more than
often he comes home minus the ba-
con-and what Ma does to him
then is nothing slow. In fact he's a
hen-pecked individual these days.
The heavy SHOWS have covered his
favorite feeding grounds. Willis
Dahlem and Doctor Gales spent
last Sunday building pheasant
feeding shelters and supplying them
with corn. Other shelters will
spring up around the country side
If this corner isn't mistaken, it's a
worthy enterprise. If we recall last
hunting season when 1t was
difficult to catch many fellows be-
tween noon and shutdown, there are
lot of sportsmen in this mans
town who will be glad to help per-
petuate these game birds. So make
things easier for them to exist this
winter. Send in your contributions
at once. They may be sent to Willis
Dahlem, and he'll see that the mon
ey goes for pheasants.
Local donations are very nee
essary since It Is learned that
the State Game and Fish de-
partment Is not dispensing
pheasant feed this year. It's up
to the local sportsmen!
