to 8-year-old Peter Holden. who is
being featured with Dudley Digges III

fantasy Of a grandfather trying to
stave of death until he has prepared
his young grandson for life young
Holden plays all exhaustive role that

But the producer who Is looking
for quiet and peaceful haven away
from the theater Is Philip Dunnlng,
who is pleasantly plagued with the
humorous and profitable The School,
house Oh the Lot" This comedy about
Hollywood child actors has cast that
includes is players between the ages

are, too. although Producer Dunning
has had to avoid the necessity Of call
ing out the National Guard to MAIN

pointing monitors W preserve the
peace.
So far his busiest task has been to
persuade Natalynne La Goff. u 7-year-
old Negro girl. that she should make
her entrance singing Good Morning.

instead OF ad llbbing her personal
faVorite song, Bel Mir blst Du

There is no record to the effect that
Mr.. Reed at this point was about to
conclude that Yes. My Darling
Daughter was bad play Before he
could come to that decision. Mr.. De
Liagre called him on the phone. an
nounced his release from previous
commitments, and asked for the
right to produce the Reed drama.
Mr.. Reed thought that would be fine,
said as much. turned his play over
to the youthful producer and sat back
to await results-and royalties. The
play opened cold that is to say
without an out-ot-toWn tryout, on
Broadway and was ALI Instantaneous
success
Such a success was it, in all truth,
that Mr.. De Liagre formed London
company, started " on its happy and
successful way, then sold the screen

The first several potential producers
still are biting their nails, or what

apparently is eXacting the price of
secluslon in Hollywood and environs,
a price infinitely preferable no doubt
to fame of lesser proportions, but one
nevertheless Disappointing to the
Temples. They wanted to come East
where they never have been.
Fly in the ointment of the Temples
wears not the shape of the curious
mob. but rather that Of the municipal
official. Ever since his secretary called
his attention to an item in the paper
about the Temples planning to come
East. the peoples choice for mayor
has been writing, wiring, and phonlng
Hollywood to make sure that the
family should stop off at his town for
q personal appearance. The tone of
the invitations has been warm. but
not lacking has been the implication
that If the Temples could not find it
in their hearts. nor their schedule, to
stop over for chat, the town would
be deeply hurt. The worst possible
thing for a motion picture star to do,
of course is to hurt town The
Temples know that and to avoid the
possibility Of inflictlng wholesale mu-
nlclpal wounds, they are seriously con-
templating staying at home.

HE mere fact of rejection by a
producer should not discourage Il
playwright. If it did Yes, My Darl-
ing Daughter" would never have been
produced and Mark Reed, its author,
might have been too discouraged ever
to try again to write successful play;
a successful play being one that con-
vlnces A producer it should be pre-
sented 10 an audience.
In finding financing for the play
which comes to the National on April
Is, Mr.. Reed certainly went through
enough to discourage any ambitious
author. Several men who might be
presumed to know the drama read
Mr.. Reeds play. They were unani-
nous IN their opinion that it had no
commercial possibilities Mr. Reed did
not believe them. SO he took it TO
another producer. This one was I'M
pressed. He told the playwright he
would produce the drama, even went
so far as to take the three months
option. At the end Of the three
months, however, the option taker
Joined the ones who had read the
manuscript earlier. He was sorry
probably for having paid the option

play. after all
Being stubborn person, even for a
playwright. Mr.. Reed then took the
manuscript to Alfred De Liagre. ir.. a
procedure dictated by the fact that
the two had connived earlier on a
success called "Petticoat Fever" Mr..
De Liagre thought it was fine play
even though the author had been
honest about its forlorn case history.
He thought it was good play, indeed,
in spite of the fact that he could not
produce it at the time owing to prev
!ous commitments.

ing: How long can the nation stand
it? We believe that these words
can aptly be applied to Morgan
county in regard to the road work:
Everyone will agree that for severa!
months the weather has been ideal
for road working, yet 80 WPA, un~
der one boss, have been working Oh
ridge road, while the mail and bus
routes that were almost impossible,
have received no attention. Ihe
safety of their children means some
thing to the parents. The delivery
OF the mail means something to the
carriers and the people. Last win
ter some of the routes were danger
Gus, yet go men are working to ploW

wrong somewhere. Maybe the coun-
ty engineer will kindly explain to
the people why so much money has
been spent and SO little accomplish
ed on the roads. The Democrats
are blameless for the county Off
Gals are Republicans. We believe
that men with good common sense
and executive ability regardless CT
