Apple Orchard Theatre Score in "Ladies in
 Retirement"
tDpecial to The Democrat)


 Litchfeld, July 9-Last evening an appreciative audience enjoyed the Apple Orchard theater thes- plans in the presentation of Ladies in Retirement" by Edward Percy and Reginald Denham, ably directed by George Pillette.
 A smaller cast is offered this week which appears to be most advan- tageous in making this murder mys- tery more appealing to the audience Only seven, all experienced foot lighters, made Ladies in Retire. ment" most easy to follow compared to an oyerabundant cast of 17 in last weeks comedy.
 Ruth Manning, as Ellen Greed, is most convincing that she is no novice to the theater. She's the big noise ct the Estuary House in the Thames Marshes where the entire story is based. Her role as mur- deress was portrayed with finesse from start to finish. This past sea- son Miss Manning has appeared as Calpurnia in the Washington Square Players production of Julius Ceasar.
 Violet Duke Barnard, as Lucy, the maid, another newcomer to the cast, does a splendid job in her difficult assignment. She's the same young lady who appeared as Alice in You Can't Take It with You"
 Fred Johnson, as Albert Feather, light finger expert, Is ideally cast as the nephew of the murderess. His English accent is almost per- feet. Others in the cast are Eve Constance, Laura Mcclure, Dee Foster and Martha Greenhouse.
