AntigOne
BY JACK GAvER

New York, Feb. 20-(UP)-They
attired a Greek play some 2,400
years old in modern evening dress
and every day English at the Cort
Theater. The fit was excellent,
The play was "Antigone. Origin
ally it was done by the Greek Sop
hocles, who got his plot from a story
that was old even in his time. Dur
ing the German occupation of
France, a French playwright named
Jean Anouilh wrote his own version
in idiomatic French. The German
masters, by some quirk that prob
ably only they could explain, per-
mitted it to be played in Paris al
though the play is a rousing cry
against tyranny and exalts the no.
bility Of the human soul above the
power of the state.
The version which Katherine Cor
nell presented and appeared in last
night is an adoption Of Anouihl's
version made by Lewis Galantiere.
Miss Cornell saw the play in Paris
year ago when she was on USO-
Camp Show tour and secured the
American rights at once.
The modern dress is a holdover
from the Paris production.
Actually the women's gowns
weren't exactly what you'd want to
see in a modern night club even
though they were designed by VAL
entina, who is regarded as the eX-
clamation point after the last word
among current designers. Except in
one case they were rather formless
and might have belonged to almost
any period. Miss Cornell's covering
was just short Of dowdy.
The men Jared much better. Mem

Hunting
and
Fishing
BY
GENE
WALTON
Correction, Pleased


During the past few weeks let
eers have been received by our State
faah and game superintendent, DR..
Russell p. Hunter, inqulring about
the states purchase of land In the
town OF Cornwall. There seems to
Be q misunderstanding with regard
to the present status of public fish
ing In The Furnace Brook which
flows through this property, The
facts concerning this land acquisi-
toin are as follows:
Two large parcels of land in the
town Of Cornwall were at public
auction from the Patterson estate.
The larger Of the two tracts Is $50
acres, bordered by highway No. 4
east Of the village Of Cornwall
Bridge. It is this parcel which in
cludes one and two-tenths miles Of
the Furnace Brook. This tract was
formerly leased by a private fishing
club but will now be open to pub
lie fishing and will not be leased to
any individual or group" This Is
the point on which there seems TO
be some misunderstanding by local
anglers. It is DR.. Hunters opinion
that various newspaper articles on
this subject have confused many
sportSuen and led them to believe
that fishing was taboo IN the Fur
mace Brook.
The second parcel of land pur-
chased contains $40 acres and adj
Joins the States present holdings in
the Mohawk Forest. These two
parcels are separated by approx
mately three-quarters of a mile.
There Is approximately one-half
mile Of the upper end of the Fur
mace Brook in this second parcel of
$40 ores. The first parcel Of $50
acres includes approximately one
half mile Of a small tributary to
the HouSatonic known as Dunn
Brook.
Acquired with the same purchases
are three smaller parcels in the
town of Cornwall and one in the
town Of Sharon with an approx
mate total acreage Of 262 acres,
This gives the state a total Of 1882
acres acquired from the Patterson
estate.
We have been told that all this
land has been cut over in the las
30 or 20 yearS-some more recently.
The timber stand on the land as a
whole Is good. however, and in
addition TO It's value from the forest
