goers who are making of the late
George Gershwin's "Porgy and
Bess" just about the most success
full revival of recent times have
shown an immediate and Spon-
taneous appreciation for the comic
artistry of Avon Long, the Sport
in Life" Of the piece still drawing
packed houses at the Majestic.
Just the other day standing in
the lobby of the Hotel Theresa
with small group of Out-of-t town
playgoers, this writer heard the
warmest of praise heaped upon the
performance of Mr.. Long.
Cheryl Crawford's production OF
"Porgy and BesS" is fortunate in
deed in having Mr.. Long in its
cast. A program note says that he
was in the Pacific Coast production
Of the opera several seasons ago;
that he has been seen at the Cot
ton Club in New York; and that
he appeared in the leading role in
LA Belle Helene" the swing Ver-
sion of the Offenbach opera early
last summer at Westport.
Mr. Long has style, His per-
formance is both glowing and sus-
tanned. He is highly professional;
and it is no small tribute to his
acting to say that it is brilliant
and inventive, yet disciplined by
a comic sense which however mis-
chievously projected, however play
ed in the spirit of the very devil
himself, never gets out of hand
or takes on the appearance of being

reported that several of Atlantic
City's leading citizens are domi-
ciled at the hotel, where they are
assured of peace and quiet.
Cars from surrounding states fill
the parking space i'll the area ad-
jacent to Brigantine with the din
ing room doing q rush business at
all hours. Some five or six miles
from Atlantic City itself, the new
rush of business at the hotel has
caused the bus company to put Oh
additional buses to accommodate
the crowds who go right from the

Earl Bostic s
Band Record Is
Very Unique
Has Played
Three Years
In One Spot

NEW YORK-(ANP)-1n those
changeable days, when the aver
age dance band is committed to a
life of one-Week theatre dates. one
nights stands, and very occasional
ly few weeks on location, few
bandleaders can beast as proud a
record as BOStic. For Earl's en-
tire career as Eandleader, three
years altogether has been spent on
one job!
On Monday, August "a Earl
celebrates his third anniversary at
SmallS Paradise in Harlem. He and
his boys have seen hundreds Of
artists come and go, and have be-
come a virtual institution at the
noted Seventh Avenue spot.
When Bostic first came to audi
ton at Smalls in 1899, he recalls,
the band had only five special ar
ragementS, and had rehearSed them
five days. To make better i'm
preston. Earl spread around dozens
of printed stock arrangements
which he'd taken from song pub
listers. Today his library of ar
rafegements, almost all of which he
wrote himself, is so big that he
doesen't even have room for them
all on the music stands.
Although this is the first and
only professional combination he
has led, BoStic had his first band
leading experience at Xavier Uni
versity, where he conducted a
symphony orchestra as we'll as a
dance band. He was featured as a
5ideman for many years Wttii

Canada Lee in both plays, Lee
was the only one in the cast who
knew his Saroyan. The other actors
did as they were told.
In the first play, Across The

Tomorrow Morning" is race
horse which seems fantastic right
there for race horses names are
never that long. The setting is in

taurant where the Saroyan play
ers loaf and talk. Lee is a waiter.
Both he and cab driver played

The second is distinctly drama.
Lee, as Blackstone Boulevard, is
a prizefighter who cannot hurt
those in the ring whom he knows
are good. Blackstone is so kind
and so in need of affection, he
adopts a little deaf white boy as
his brother. Finally, he's tricked in
to fighting a midget dressed in the
Hitler regalia To end it all, Black
stone is left on the stage, dead,
beaten by those he refused to
hurt.
Mr.. Lee gives, as he did in
Richard Wright's play, a sincere,
winning and surperb performance
but it just couldn't surpass Native

closing performance 1t was an
occasion of the greatest artistic
and human interest and Of the
finest theatrical quality, consid-
erations fully grasped by the ca
pacity audiences and standees
who remained in their seats to a
man at the end and gave the
company great ovations.
AS one theatrical critic assert
ed, it was praise, moreover,
abundantly deserved and honest
ly earned, unconnected with hy-
steria and back-slapping.
AS old theatre goers know well,
Mr.. Robeson's appearance in the
title role of "Othello" marked the
first occasion upon which an art
ist of his race and stature
played the part in this country
with a cast of white actors.
True, the great Ira Aldridge
played Othello to Edmund Kean's
Iage, both in England and on the
continent of Europe, won the adj
miration of Richard Wagner, was
decorated by the king of Prussia
and went as far afield of a Ne
gro Othello hereabouts Tin Bos-
ton was back in 1916 when Ed
ward Sterling Wright appeared at
the old Grand Opera house in a
company composed of actors OF
his own race.
Like all great roles written by
the immortal Shakespeare, Othel-
10 offers a challenge to his in
terpreters; and no player OF
small caliber has ever grasped
the spaciousness of the role and
even those of fine stature have
been overwhelmed. But the beau
tiful seniority of Mr.. Robeson's s
speaking voice, the dignity of his
bearing, and his psychological

she felt no more flag waving or

the services or of civilians.
Il think the best thing would be
If some songs could come from the
people and if they were sung by
the people she told a gathering of
students at an open discussion.
"A great many think we should
have more flag waving and martial
music. I'm not sure. AS I talk to
the boys in service I think they're
more serious than ever before.
don't think any of them has any
illusions as to the glamor of war
They are serious about the job to
be done"
On March IT, President Roosevelt,
discussing legislative curbs on labor,
said he thought parades, band
playing and flag-waving would stir
