But the debate had drawn from

HOLLYWOOD

Sights and sounds: Here's a great
sign that things are fast coming
back to normal: The brass hats of
the movie industry are in stunt
mad mood once more. They want
ballyhoo-and they want ballyhoo
bigger and better than any one
knew in the prewar era.
Press agents are feverishly mop
ping their imaginative brows in
search of dazzling new exploitation
ideas, and, what's more, they're
coming up with them.
Warner Bros. are repeatedly PLAN
ming ship-chartered cruise to
Honolulu to stage the world pre-
miere of a new picture there. It
would be Today trip, carrying
stars, correspondents, and the usual
gang of hangers-on.
Even more startling is the pro-
Jected unveiling of the Marx Bro
theirs movie, Adventure in Casa
blanca" which would call for a
small fleet Of airliners to cart stars
and press to that North African
port for the premiere.
Both aforementioned ambitious
undertakings are still in the talk
stage, but David o. Selznick has
come up with one that's nothing of
the kind. It's already being GAL
vanized into action and will take
the form of cross-continental tour
on the part of four beautiful girls
tq whip up interest Id his 5000 900
production Of Duel in the Sun"
The old joke about travelling sales
men will be pushed into a state of
obscurity by Selznick's newest gag.
Week before the girls were sched-
ulcd TO depart on a jllfket that will
embrace 130 different cities, the
producer converted his studio into
girls finishing school" The
quartet, headed by Anita Colby
(The Face, underwent an inten-
sive course OF indoctrination.
On their coast-to-coast itinerary
which will require three months
before they converge in New York,
they will meet Governors, Mayors
and civic leaders. They will "sell'
Hollywood to luncheon clubs and
civic groups, act as judges at beauty
contests, and make personal appear
ances at public gatherings.
Selznick said every girl was Sc
lected to typify the glamour of Holly
wood as well as "the intelligence
representing the creative talent of
the motion-picture industry"
Anita Colby, heading the caravan,
is one of the most famous cover girls
in the world. She is feminine director
for Selznick Studio and acts as style
and beauty mentor for the stars
under his contract. Among the cities
Miss Colby will hit are New Orleans,
Nashville, Pittsburgh, Akron, Cleve-
land, Toledo, Detroit, Jackson, Lam
sing, Grand Rapids and Toronto.

never came back. He left her
haunted, not with a sense of the
vanity of faith and love, but with a
fear Of what life could do to the
innocent.
The three lives of the household
are completely dominated by the
mothers fear. She is terrified by the
menace of all close relationships.
But, in the case of the daughter, she
is equally terrified by the bird-Iike
creatures flight from all human con-
tact, her obsession with the glass
menagerie and a collection of old
phonograph records which the way
ward father left behind that day he
fed.
In this state of terror, she COM
missions the son to find solution
for the girls condition. He is futile,
dreaming sort totally unqualified
for the assigned task of ensnaring
a likely suitor from among his asso-
ciates, bringing him home. and guild
ing the pair to romance, the thought
OF which has never occurred to him
in his own bewildered relationship
to life.
The frame and the characters
within it are as simple as that in
The Glass Menagerie," but behind
them there is always the evidence
OF lively, searching mind 1t creates
the feeling that this is what Saroyan
might do if he were less self-con-
scious and considerably more coher-
ent about his feeling for little people.
Without in any way modifying your
need to feel sorry for them, the play
wright permits you to laugh both
with, and at, them He finds them
sad and funny, like life, and he
weaves their fate into something
that is invariably captivating.
The faith which he keeps with his
small collection of humans in "The
Glass Menagerie" is reflected as well
in Williams's fourth character as it
is in the more basic trio. He is the
aggressive young man brought home
by the brother to woo the crippled
girl. He is not very brilliant by con-
Evening star., 1946-01-28

ventional standards, but he has his
integrity. and it is brilliant job he
does in eluding the trap which has
been set for him. He earns no dis
favor in a situation made to order
for that, which is clever thing on
his part and his authors.
Miss Taylor's is properly the most
talked of performance in THE Glass
Menagerie," but the others are al
most equally works of acting art.
Dowling is perfect as the harrassed
son-who also steps outside the role
to act as narrator. The same is true
of Miss Hayden as the daughter and
of Ross as the gentleman caller"
who could not stay because his heart
was elsewhere.

Williams's "The Glass Menagerie, /"
last seasons prize play. He made a
new figure in the growing cavalcade
of heroes of this night of nights in
Washington's theater season. And,
because of the occasion, his brave,
sad little dimensions were enlarged
in obedience to the tradition that
the best plays must be better on
this of all the nights of their life.
1t is quite unlikely than any of
the previous command performances,
for all the excellence they made
memorable, achieved and sustained
so satisfying pitch Of excitement.
More deeply searching in it's theme
than many of its predecessors, ''The
Glass Menagerie" was another ideal
choice for its purpose. And Laurette
Taylor, Eddie Dowling, Julie Hayden
and Anthony Ross were the perfect
performers to. make it so.
In less broad minds and under
standing hearts, THE Glass Me-
nagerie" could be quite a different
drama. It's author could have been
made very easily to look like one
more fellow with an axe to grind,
an ex parte statement to make on
behalf of the privileged, a
passionately poetic young man trac-
ing human misery to an economic
ogre. 1t comes off as something
deeper than that, an immortal flaw
in nature in which wretchedness can
grow from the noblest, most unselfish
intentions and yet not rob man of
his right to hope and his gift of
laughter. Few plays with several
times the total of the four characters
of THE Glass Menagerie" have had
so much to say or have said it with
so agile a blending of humor and
pathoS.
1t Is WllliamS's uncommon treat
ment of them that lifts his people
in The Glass Menagerie" out of the
commonness with which they are
normally regarded by life and other
playwrights. They take on thereby
a dramatic fascination which makes
it easy to understand why the play
earned its prizes. And why its popu-
larity remains undiminished after
almost year on Broadway.
Most fascinating of the lot, al
though the competition is endlessly
stern, is the mother played by Miss
Taylor. She is at once the best and
worst in motherhood. She is equally
the devoted slave and domineering
master of her children. She is their
fierce protector whose every act and
thought to save them from her own
unhappy experience catapults them
toward more miserable one. Miss
Taylor makes her a masterpiece, the
most arresting woman on the con-
temporary stage.
Within the terse and simple out
line, the play has volumes to speak
of the mother and her two children;
one morbidly shy, crippled daugh-
ter who collects glass animals, the
other a gentle, poetic son whose
refuge from his mothers endless
nagging is drink and a few scattered
forlorn dreams.
The mothers motives are as
understandable as her actions are
reprehensible. She was popular when
she was a girl in Tennessee Her life
was constant parade of gentle
men callers" Planters courted her
and the otherwise best element OF
the town. She could have had a
wide choice of husbands. She mar
ried the least gentlemanly OF the
lot. scoundrel who one day walked

PortyWorks On Primaries

Reports that the Democratic leaders are calling for party prim- aries and caucuses to be held witNs In the next two weeks were heard in authoritative political quarters today.
 State Chairman John Mcclure announced earlier in the week that primaries and caucuseS will be held about the State Aug. 27. However, local leaders hold that the party rules entitle them to hold the prim- aries and caucuses at an earlier date.
 One likely date, according to po- lltlcal dopesterS, is Friday, Aug. 23, though a date earlier the same week may be selected. Under party rules, notices of a primary must be pub lished at least eight days before the voting date.
 City Comptroller Cornelius F. Ma loney, secretary of the Democratic Town Committee, today would say only that there will be a meeting soon" of the executive board, which is empowered by the Town Commit tee to set the date for primaries and caucuSeS.
 The only known primary contest Will be in the 18th District, con- the 4th and 5th Wards. In that district Sen. Patrick J. Wal lace, seeking renomination, is op- posed by ex-Alderman Martin F. Sullivan.

Appeal Lost By Worker

Unemployment benefits were de- nied Alex Mittleman of Waterbury today when Judge Edward J. Quin- Ian filed a decision in Superior Court upholding the ruling of an Unemployment Compensation Law examiner denying benefits to the worker.
 Mittleman had filed claim for un- employment benefits April 30, 1e44. In decision dated July 29, 1944, the examiner had disapproved the claim of April 30 and subsequent claims on the ground that the claimant was unavailable for work and ineligible for benefits because he had placed such obstacles in the path of the United States Employ ment Service as to make it impos- sible for the service to offer suit able employment.
 The examiner had found that the claimant was not interested in dis cussing openings because he expect ed employment. The same condi- tion existed throughout the entire period of filing claims.
 The claimant appealed the deci- sion of the examiner. After hear ings on Oct. 23 and Dec. 12, 1914 the decision of the examiner was affirmed.
 In his decision, Judge Quinlan stated that the record does not sus- tain the claims of the plaintiff. There was evidence that Mittleman was awaiting certain employment, D Judge Quinlan found.

 Eisenhower said that the world could not stand another war.
 Speaking to Brazilian and foreign correspondents in the U. $. embas- Sy, Eisenhower said:
 We must face the realities. No country which values liberty and in- dependence can neglect it's security and defenses."
 T don't believe another war is in- evitable," he said. If the world is going Do struggle for peace we can not state in advance that we must fight another war. This business of fighting for peace is getting tire some to the world"

Postmaster Charles A. Babin said today that postal inspectors have been notified of the possible at tempted burglary of the Post Of- fee Sunday night, which The Democrat disclosed in an exclusive story yesterday.
 The postmaster confirmed The Democrats report that a watchman had reported seeing two providers in the big mail room of the Fed eral Building and that later a panel above the Postal Cashiers window had been found broken.
 Postal authorities are understood to be concerned about the timing of the bulgary attempt, fearing that it might indicate familiarity with the post office schedule. The would be burglars picked an hour when no men were on duty in the mail room and when the watchmen were changing shifts. This will be one of the factors probed by the postal inspectors.
 The postmaster discounted the theory of burglary attempt. saying he believed there was no connection between the report of teh providers and the broken panel in the lobby window He disclosed that the Watchman, after seeing the prowlers flee through the mail room into the lobby went outside the rear of the building and around to Grand Street, fearing that the pair was armed
