Whether the one-year carry-over

MARTA ABBA SHINES
Marta Abba, Italy's gift to

with verve and carefree ANNA

cent is on today's joy. There is
also much warmth and tender
feeling when the mood calls for
sentimental reflection or roman

reviewer saw her originate the
role in Baltimore IL months
ago, the actress has gained in
both assurance and delivery. A
clever comedienne-farceur and
a fine emotional mime.
Rudolf Forster, VienneSe i'm

inaudible delivery, but as he

Now you see it, and now you
don't! The hand is quicker than
the eye! Notice that have notn-
ing whatever up my sleeves!
These phrases, so enhancing
to the lover of magic, have
blazoned forth once more In
Washington at the BelaSco The
alter, where members of the So
ciety of American MagiclanS,
backed by their local branch
and the Citizens Emergency
Committee, are doing "tWo-a-
day" for the benefit of untortu-
note school children who need
hot lunches.
TRICKS THAT FOOL
Folk who attend one OF the
performances - and there are
matineeS and evening shows
every day this week-will get
double their moneys worth. In
the first place, they will witness
a creditable full-length theatrical
presentation And in the Sec
ond place they will be helping
poor youngsters to gain health.
They've gone to lot Of trou-
BILE to get performers-some
amateurs and some old-time pro-
fessionalS who haven't trod a
board in years-and they've as
sembled an imposing array OF
equipment. On the whole, things
are smooth. But, forced to util-
faced with the realization their
hands aren't as quick as they
once were, some of the old
timers were a bit nervous last
night.
But everybody had a good
time, watching the ace of spades
disappear and the little lady
step from the absolutely, posi-
lively empty box. OF last
nights audience, the one who
enjoyed himself most was the
Soviet Ambassador, Alexander
Troyanovsky, who sat in the
first row and grinned delighted
ly at everything, especially when
one magician, not recognizing
the diplomat, asked him to step
on the stage to help a particu-
lar effect.
CLEVER CARD WORK
And another magician, also
ignorant of his subjects identity,
r arke d that Troyanovsky
probably had no Chinese blood
in his veins" when the envoy ad-
mitted he didn't understand how
to work the Chinese ring trick.
Shades of international politics!
Included among the perform
erS are Charles w. TownSley,
Washington's own master of
large-Scale illusions; Carl Main
fort, another local product who
handles cards better than Frank
FriSch; Lew Meyer, an excellent
comic juggler from Baltimore;
A. M. Cowan, once among the
top few in card manipulation;
Henry Haviland, brash young
illuSioniSt who announced he
would handle the Washington
press" and proceeded to tear the
Philadelphia Inquirer into paper
dolls; the man with the Chinese
rings, whose name was withheld,
and Harry Baker.

WELL WRITTEN PLAY
Be not alarmed. The play
has nothing to do with the five
year plan or tractors. It's all
light stuff about couple of
exiled ariStocratS who decided it
would be more fun to take
jobs as butler and maid than
Starve.
Marta Abba is the former
Grand Duchess Tatiana, and
Actor Forster, Prince Mikail.
It seems that when the gallant
pride of the Tsars' army left
Russia he was entrusted with
1000, 900, 900 francs belonging to
His Imperial Highness to be
used when the right time ar
rived for the best interests of
the royal cause.
BY fate's cruel tricks Prince
Mikail is reduced to a genteel
poverty in a Paris garnet, and
so IS his wife, the grand
duchess, but their spirits are
never depressed. Although the
French government has designs
on his riches held in escrow,
they resist all efforts to get the
money until the right time
comes for the happy ending,
and the chance to help their
beloved Russia.
1t IS when the prince and
the grand duchess go out into
service as the treasured servants
Of q bankers family that the
play reaches its heights of
mirth. You never, in all your
days, saw such a charming and
delightful maid and butler. This
opportunity to contrast the
manner and mood of the digni-
fled and polite kitchen tenants
with those of the head of the
