A.Philip Randolph
Honored By BSCP
By Doris Jones

The coming of Mr.. A Philip Ran
dolph, President of the Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters, to
Seattle, was the occasion for a
flood of invitations for social hon
ors. Because of his intense sehe-
dule and specific orders from his
physician for rest and quietude, he
was forced to forego many of
them. However, he was unable TO
resist the pleasure of a few of those
who have been so closely assoeiat-
ed with him since his long and vic
torious fight for labor. Faithful
to the cause of the Brotherhood,
his social calls We're punctuated
with his life's work and a new urge
to carry on.
Mr.. Randolph very much appre-
ciated the spirit of the locals, and
the militant Dining Car Walters
and Porters, and the Brotherhood
of Red Caps as well. Organization
and organized loyalty for all Ne
gro labor are always uppermost in
his mind, As he parted for his
Saturday conference with the To-
cal chapter 1 bade goodbye to one

Conferences with the local chap
ter and Ladies Auxiliary ended on
Monday at the beautiful home of
the vice president, Mrs. John
Young, 226 22nd Ave. No. The
militant spirit of the Auxiliary
won the admiration Of the presi-
dent. He looks forward to seeing
complete organization in every dis
trict because of that spirit. The
Auxiliary and president, with mu-
tual admiration, bade each other
God-speed.

do not propose to encroach upon the preserves

agree with me that the 1ayers' performance of
awake and Sing" was comendable, highly entertain
Importance to the Town.
What do want do is to QUESTION. along with
at Least two of local drama authorii whether
awake and Sing" itself was worth the painstakine
cares the devotion, and the enthusiasm given it by
our players. The review the thing in my own
mind, the more question whether it is the ngreat
social document" it evidently thought to be by
Its local performers.
True, 1T condemns the evils of capitalism. True it
uses thoroughly minhibited language. True, it
11aunts 11fe-in-the-raW before very eyes.
But 1T is not fundamental ly play of men facing
1ifes problems. It is play of fool vhimnerino
at Tn cir own weaknesses. The old stirs our SYM
path1es and lit tie of our respect; the young boy
asks you to believe he Is the way to greatness,
but you can't forget that he given Up hi owed
one without struggle; the rest are bunch of de-
PRAYED, mprincipled, minspiring wealdings, who
give no evidence that they would survive among men
under any state of society.
These characters stand out in strong cont rast to
those of John Steinbecks HGrapes of Wrathu VINO are
true heroes who face trials that would try Job with
dogged and self-respecting fortitude. The o seem
aty OF the two works are similarly different. LII
the one 1t is, as it is meant to be, shocking and
"shoW-off" stuff. In the other it is the natural
out-pouring of unselfconscious, close-to-the-soil
r1haldy that stirs healthy senses somewhat as do.

But be that it may be it seems to me that
players who are devoted to drama a means of re-
creation, both of themselves and of their community
and who are offering freely much energy and en-
struggle over fine plays only. These plays need not
be profound-they might well be gay and even sim
ple-but they should be among the best of their re-
spectve types. Cheap plays are always costly in
theater groups.

working the designs for costumes for this
play, and Betsy D. Woodman is music director.
The set for this production will be simple
depicting of the interior of convent In
which the entire acti of this two-act play takes
place.
nThe Cradle Song" is not essentially Christmas
play, people may have presumed-however,
due perhaps to its setting and to the Cd rcmstaces
revealed in the story, it ght we'll be adapted to
this particular Of the year.
Acclaim has been heard all sides for the
splendid performance of nAwaee and SingH given here
Last week by the Players. It evident to the
audience that the cast knew their line s, and that
they knew they knew them-Widch is always valu-
able asset to any production.
Of particular interest the applause both
evenings for the fine rendition Of the relatively
few lines given by Walsky HSam Feinschreib-
erm, the "nobody-loves-me" spouse. Gene appeared
previously the Russian waiter in nRoon Service",

then.
Credit is due to all the cast of awake and

to curb Fascists, Communists and
anti-racial and anti-religious Or

He said the bills were merely
rough drafts intended as . basis
for study.
One would require Communists,
Fascists and anti-racial and anti

OF State and, under oath, list the
names and addresses of officers,
employees, members and contributors,
the disposition Of receipts and the

publicity on their activities you will
end most Of these organizations"
Representative Dies said.
Another bill would bar Com
munists and Fascists from Govern
ment employment and the third
would require prompt deportation
Of Communist and Fascist aliens.
All three bills define Communist
or Fascist organizations as those
believing in or advocating forcible
overthrow of the Government, un-
lawful saluting of public ondcer,
unlawful damage to property, sa-
botage or establishment of a "prole-
tartan dictatorship" national or
state socialism or 'totalitarian
state" They specify that "the OBJ
jectives of the Third international,
the Communist International the
Fascist Grand Council or National
Socialist Party Of Germany shall be
held to embrace the said doctrine. I"
Anti-racial and anti-religious or
ganizations are defined as those

Schaub had been suffering
from his ailments for So years
and couldn't talk when he first

People all over the country
know of the fame of this place
for such cures, but things have
been so bad with the middle class
people that they haven't been
able to afford a six months stay
here to regain their strength. The
place needs more advertising on
