Citizens Group
Unite To Build
Vancleave School

Nearly fifty men of the Van
,leave community IN West jack
son County met at the Masonic
Lodge building there Monday
night and formed an organization
% build a new school through
the issuance of S45, 900 in bonds,
which voters of the school dis
trict have petitioned the county
board of supervisors to sell.
The buildings of the CONSOLE
dated high school there, which
was one of the South Mississippi's
best, were completely destroyed
by fire several years ago and
efforts to replace it during the
war years with the aid of fed
eral grants unsuccessful.
During that time, $4,000 in bonds
We're issued and the additional
$4,000 issue which is requested
is the maximum allowed by law
for the school district.
Seven-eighths of the districts
voters-280 out of 800 persons
qualified-signed the petition
which will be presented to the
Board of Supervisors on Tues
day, June 4, at 1000 o'clock. The
election has been tentatively set
FOR June 20, allowing the four
publications of the advertise
ment, as required by law.
Unity Stressed
The five-man board of trustees
of the school, Hubert Mallette,
Edward Ellis, Roscoe Fletcher,
Carson Fletcher and Howard Jen-
nings were present, together with
G.. A. Cruthirds, member of the
Board of Supervisors from Dis
trict 5, and N. E. Taconi, super
intendent of the school.
Denver Lyons acted as chair
man and c. A. Stagg as secreta-
ry of the group, which is pledged
to promote the building of the
school by getting out the vote"
for the bond issue election. An
other meeting has been called for
next Monday night to be held in
the building serving as a school
and is open to all of the public
interested in the project.
Mr.. Lyons told the group
that inter-community dissension,
which he said has been blamed
for the failure of several efforts
to build a school, has been dis
pensed with in the new organi-
zation.
This group lis interested in
building a school,, Mr.. Lyons
said, 1T is not political and has
no interest in political factions or
groups other than the fact that
we solicit the aid of all groups
and all individuals who are in
terested in building a school,"
Naif Jordan, Biloxi business
man, voluntarily contributed $50
to the movement at the meeting,
which the group and the trus-
tees decided would be placed
in a special fund to be used for
additional equipment in the new
school.

Little Theaier Ends Season With
Fine Performance OF Angel Street

THE Paspoint Little Theater
closed its first season Tuesday
night in top-notch style with an
expert performance of the mys-
terry play Angel Street which
lifted the amateur theatrical
movement to new levels OF
achievement in this e
The play was beautifully done
throughout-in acting, in direct
ing, in timing, in setting, cos
tunes and lighting. So much, SO,
in fact, as to lead one to the
hope that the show will be pre-
sented again before the group
is disbanded for the summer sea
son.
The plays interest hangs not
on action so much as on con-
versation and upon the air of sus-
pense which the actors are able
to build up with speaking parts
alone. This required faithful at
tention to the roles and long re-
hearsals, and expert directing.
The competence of Jack Stutz's
Job as director was evidenced
by the smoothness of the pace,
and by the individual work of
the players.
One of the stand-out parts in
Angel Street" a that of the
character of the Scotland Yards
Inspector as it emerged over the
footlights in the capable hands
of young Dewitt Clinton Drury.
Drury, Chicago born, has had
considerable experience in va
rious parts of the country. and
plans to go East shortly to take
up the theater professionally. an
ambition in which he seems JUS
titled, Playing the part of a much
older detective, he merged con-
vincingly into the character. His
gestures were definite, but natur-
al and not overplayed, and his
speaking part convincing.
Lucy Wingfield gave an assur-
ed and satisfactory performance
as the terrified young wife, be-
sides grazing the stage with her
well-executed costume and her
beauty.
Russell Bent, a u. s. Engineer
from Massachusetts with consid-
cradle experience. did fine work
as the jewel-thief, and in make
up and bearing seemed we'll cast
for this austere and chilling role.
Dorothy Daniel played the fir
tations maid with zest and a
twitch, and Elizabeth Kosch was
properly respectable and repre-
sentative of the "gas-light era IN
the house-keeper's role.
One contributing element "
the convincing atmosphere was
the lighting, which was made
possible by a switchboard almost
SiX-feet long, designed for the
play. Altogether the lighting took
about 1000 man-hours of work,
indicating the thoroughness with
which the group has done lis
work.
The little theater's season open
ed with the play Claudia. star
ing zelda Zuzer and directed
by II. II. Douthitt. The group
followed with arsenic and Old
Lace" directed by Stanley Beb-
Ter. The season closes with An
gel Street" and will be marked
with a banquet for the whole
group Friday night at the 18th
Street auditorium

Two Daily Mail
Deliveries Begin
In P~ascagoula

Two mail deliveries each week
day, except Saturday, will be
made in the residential districts
of P~ascagoula beginning next
Monday, Postmaster Arthur v.
Smith announced. On Saturdays
there will be only one delivery
to residential sections, but the
business, or downtown section.
will continue to be served on the
present schedules.
This will be a restoration Of
service suspended during the war
on account of shortage of men.
Because of the immense perma-
nent growth of Pascagoula, il
was necessary to completely
district the city and re-organize
the carrier force after studies
had been made by post office in
spectors, Mr.. Smith said. The
organization and training of new
carriers, all of whom are var
veterans, has been under the su-
pervision of Harold B. Svott,
perintendent of mails.
Under the new system, all foot
carriers will be on the streets at
8 o'clock. and complete deliveries
will be made of all mail which
had been received up until that
time. On afternoon trips, the car
riers will deliver all mail that has
been deposited in the office or has
arrived by mail routes during the
morning. The carriers will also
collect ! mail twice daily from
street boxes and from private
mail receptacles of homes for
which the carriers have mail to
deliver. They do not examine
mail receptacles unless they have
mail to deposit there. he pointed
out.
In providing the extra deliv-
cry. some transfers in service
have been made. Residents of
Beach Boulevard and Washing
ton avenue as far as the City
Park will be served by city car
riers instead of by rural route;
so will the residents of the south
ern part of Belair street.
In the Encouragement, many
householders will see a new car
rier on their route, and for a few
weeks, until adjustments are eff
fected to balance the districts so
that each carrier will have a nor
NAL number of patrons TO serve.
there may be further changes,
according to the postmaster.
Mounted carriers, using motor
vehicles, will deliver parcels on
schedules different from the foot
carriers.
Because of the necessity for
rapid and correct distribution of
mail in the post office to the
carrier districts, the postmaster
again urged all patrons to have
their mail fully and completely
addressed by street and number,
except those who have box de-
livery. when the number Of the
box should be given.
The carriers have been carefully
selected and are closely super
vised, and any irregularity or
error in deliveries should be re-
ported to the main office or to
Eastlawn Branch. depending on
where the carrier is stationed, Mr..
Smith said. These reports will
assist in correcting mistakes which
might occur among the new en-
ployees, the postmaster explained.
