Close Season

As : frothy afterpiece to its sea-
son the Warrington Civic Theater
brings three Of the brightest items
from Noel Coward's frivolous one
act play cycle, Tonight at $780," to
the stage Of the Wardman Park
Theater this week. TUNED Oak, /"
Hands Across the Sea" and ~Ways
and Means" comprise the trio Sc
lected from Mr.. Cowards nine for
the occasion, the former. that gem
about the worm Of q husband who
finally and gleefully turned, and the
other two brittle Coward banter
about the upper clawsses.
Z Civic's one-third Of Tonight at
$3.50" is neither ill-housed, ill-clothed
nor ill-fed. It is housed in Will
liam Girvan settings, which are both
utilitarian and attractive, and 1t is
dressed up and nourished by some
generally capable playing. Espe-
cialiy do all three plays benefit by
rather glittering performances by
Sara Seegar, who makes herself
very welcome In her FIRST appearance
with the group since its "Merrily
We Roll Along" Of last season. This

Fredric March Is about to save
Betty Field from "A-fate-worse-
than-death" on the Victory" set
at Paramount. Betty is q member
Of a 1903 girls orchestra in the
Dutch East Indies. She and her
troupe are under the conductor
ship of Fritz Field, who is about to
sell his charges to the highest bid
der. Field hides his villainy meath
a hideous smile and an even worse
looking beard.
"You look like a goat" I tell him.
II feel like one," he replies and adds,
I'm a very wicked man, but wish
you had been here q few minutes
ago and seen me conducting the
orchestra. I can't read q note OF
music!"
Betty Field is gotten up in q
terrible traily voile number with q
Scotch plaid across the front. I
am assured that girl musicians wore
this sort of thing in 1908. But still
don't believe it. Betty tells me that
she met Mr.. March for the first
time two years ago In New York,
when both appeared on the same
radio program. He stared at her,
then-"Heilo," he said. Hello" she
said. II know you," he said. "Oh,
do you?" she said. You're Janet
Gaynor's stand-in," he said. NO."
she said emphatically.

Hitler asked further questions
about German possibilities in South

it appeared that there were many

propOunded ideas which were much
later realized by Bohle on the one
hand and Ribbentrop on the other,
and took shape in two mutually an
tagonistic onslaughters of propa-
ganda. Essentially it was question

turned to Hanfstangel with the
suggestion that this seemed to me a
most alarming repetition in an ag-
gravated form of the whole pre-war
policy. Would it not be wiser not
to challenge Britain and America,
at least until Germany's position
was unassailable? Moreover, this
proposed policy was in contradiction
to the fundamental rules laid down

by Mein Kampf. But now for the
first time I heard derogatory mem
ton made OF this book in Hitler's
presence, and concluded from this
that 1t was by no means regarded
in the inner circles as the binding
pronouncement it was given out to
be for the masses. 1t was Hanf-
stangel's opinion that sooner or later
we should in any case have to face
the hostility of the United States
and Britain. Germany was ready.
Was I still cherishing. he contemp-
tuously asked. illusions about
Britain? AS for the United States,
they would certainly never inter-
fere in Europe again; he knew that
better than any one, for he knew
these gentry and their weaknesses.
Britain, he proclaimed, was dead.
Where else. he added, should Ger
many get the elements OF her future
world empire If not from the dis
integrating empires Of Britain and
France2 The final struggle with
Britain could not be evaded.
And If you look closer" concluded
Hanfstangel. you will find that
everything about Britain in "Mein
Kampf" is of purely tactical value.
Hitler had good reason to write
as he did"
That night heard mentioned for
the first time the general outlines
of the future great German overseas
Reich. I was amazed to hear that
Hitler was reaching out TO the

possessions and the whole of New

to grow too big, Hitler remarked.
1t must be DETECTED against China
and Russia. But Hitler also an
ticipated a Central African dominion

revolutionary transformation of the
U. S. A. With the breakdown of
the British Empire, Hitler believed

After the June purge during the

was turned to Mexico. Mexico
played special part in Hitler's
American plans. which were. how
ever, nothing like Papen's notorious
intrigues during the last war to

regarded as sheer stupidity. Here,

1t wasn't only the matter of a
mortgage and Hanks avarice. Forster
knew.
He remembered the time when
Luke Hanson and Hank Ellis were
both after the same girl - Mary
Marshall from over by Millarville.
Luke married her and built her
house, the last year of the good times.
The house never got finished. because
Hank Ellis and the hard times together
had kept Luke scratching to meet his
payments. Luke grew gaunt and hard.
Tough times make tough eggs.
ELLIs conducted cunning persecu-
ton, goading Luke into making bad
breaks. The first time, Forster had got
Luke off with a warning from the
magistrate. The second time was last
fall. Luke had spent the winter in Jail
for that.

dimes
Forster remembered. He had felt in
his pocket and cursed himself because
he could only find two dimes there.
But Buddy had received them with
the awed manner of small boy who
doesn't see money often.
"You bit each dime" Buddy re-
membered admiringly. Made big
dents in 'em. You got strong teeth.
Forster remembered that too. He
had done it deliberately, to distract
Buddy's attention. In fact. he just
about bit the coins in two. 1t was
tough to be cop and have to take
kids father to jail.
He had acquiesced almost surlily
when Luke Hanson had asked for
few minutes talk with Buddy outside.
Forster knew what that was tor. tie
could imagine Luke saying huskily,

But when the baby came the dimes
were gone," Buddy said.
''Shucks, Buddy! How Gomez"
Claire kept peeping out at Forster
and dodging back again. She was a
cute little thing with a dimple in each
cheek and lively blue eyes, like her
mothers used to be.
What are you diddlin' around for?"
Hank called impatiently. Lets get

cried, his boyish treble hardening.

That's what my Dad says. So he is

1t was an angle, Forster admitted
thoughtfully. 1t would explain Han
sons otherwise inexplicable cattle
stealing - if Luke figured he was just
taking his own calves back. Hank
would do it. too, if he thought he could
get away with it. Luke Hanson in Jail,
the calves unbranded, Hank with
plenty of black calves so that it would
be hard for Luke to identify them
when he got out. 1t added up.
so you didn't have the dimes to
buy something for the baby" Forster
said absently 1t was an angle. Only
Hank would have figured it out SO you
couldn't hang it on him.
But we got the calves back" Buddy
cried triumphantly. Dad went an

He laid the baby in the homemade
crib and cried: watch Baby. Claire.
