We see them doing the obvious thing and put ting up @ coalition ticket. Behind it are the fifteen thousand voters who pulled the Republican lever two years ago, and they will stand fast. Behind 1t are the three thou sand voters who pulled the Inde- pendent Democratic lever two years ago and their numbers have increased tremendously. More- over, supporting the ticket are hundreds of previously inactive or discouraged or uninterested voters who have been saying, Whats the use, what can we do against the liachine?'

A welcome announcement to
the theater lovers Of this city is
that the Theater Guild is bring

Sidney Howard's new play. "The

Ethel Barrymore and Dudley

supporting cast.

the National Theater for one
week only beginning Monday,
November is, and it is the fourth
play of the Theatre Guild and
American Theater Society'S sixth
subscription season.
The locale of this new play
is one of the older Western Amer
ican cities, and the time is in
the perhaps not distant future,
18 months after the commence
ment of the next world war"
The thematic basis of the play
is clearly most timely. It deals
with the fortunes and problems
of a large urban family of ample

written q stirring drama Of
family love and conflict.
One Of the most interesting
phases Of this production is
that it is bringing back to the
stage Ethel Barrymore, who for
so many years has been ac'
claimed "the first lady Of the
theater." The author says that
Miss Barrymore was the only
one who could play this part.
It is the first time that he has
written a role for one particular
player.
