Negro Actor To Play White Role
Boston. Mass. (Special)

Boston, Mass. (SpeciaD -
 Next Monday evening, Septem- Der g, Canada Lee famous Ne gro actor who recently enacted the role of Caliban in Shake speare's The Tempest, will appear as BosoIa in The Duchess of Mall fl, in which Elisabeth Bergner will star at the Shubert Theatre Special interest attaches to the one-week performance because a reliable source confirmed the fact that MT. Lee would make up as a white man. It will be the first time on the American professional stage that a Negro has essayed the role of white person.
 The play is blood-curdling seventeenth century English melo- drama, penned by John Webster, and the plot is laid in Renaissance Italy. A duke and a priest, both brothers, connive in the attempt to precent their sister, the duchess, from marrying since they want her money for themselves. Their | agent is Daniel DeBosola, the vil- lain, played by MT. Lee.
 During rehearsals Dr. Paul Czinner, producer, broke a prece- dent by ignoring the color line to choose the actor whom he consi- dered most able to interpret the role.

I tain police as it's only Negro mem Der. From Chief Godfrey's local force the entire Negro male per sonnel were there in the persons of Marshall Wood, Madison Bolden, Archie Reedy and Donald Harris with their wives who dressed in all of the loveliest evening attire seemed to have really enjoyed a wonderful evening. Cliff Gum and his inter-racial combination furnished the correct music for the occasion. We like the idea of the inter-racial set up in the band for it gives the $"other half" an opportunity to learn that we can enjoy an evening of hilarity and yet maintain our self respect.
 Our former Bridgeport repre- sentative and a member of that city's tennis players was present in the company of his charming wife. They were MT. and Mrs. Hamilton Lee. What the town needs: More formals by the Nutmeg Tennis Club. We congratulate the Chair man Algethia James and the com mittee for their efforts.

 We expect Harold Parker to show the fans some real football this fall as he joins the "play for pay" boys. Harold will hold down the fullback berth for Jack Ken ny's Hartford Blues.
 Two of our towns pest fighters with more tan a fair share of vic tories to their credit Red Doty and Tony Falco were both knocked out at the auditorium last week by two very good Negro fighters. Bobby Pryor, nineteen year up and coming fighter out of Springfield "hung it on" Red Doty.
 Jimmy Hill, another businesslike Welter, put the first keys on Tony that both Hill and Pryor will go Falco's record. It. is predicted far in their chosen fields.

To our readers who have been indulgent with me since I have been attempting to substitute in the Editors seat. You are asked to be patient for two more issues. Then we of the Chronicle who are attempting to establish a real newspaper in this state will offer the public a startling and most welcome change in the staff and administration of this paper. Many thanks to our well wishers also to the knockers because what have been lacking most in regards to the paper was healthy criticism. We welcome it and want all of the comment that comes to any readers mind. If it proves no other point than that of being read We will still be happy about the whole thing.
 Should you notice an ad and have occasion to be a patron of the advertiser please mention it to him. It is the duty of all read CTS to help to put the paper over. We are your voice crying in the wilderness wanting our people to be heard and recognized for the human citizens that we are asking nothing other than to be known as Christian citizens of steady ha- bits.

 Huzzahs! Hurrahs! and Hoo Rays! to the Nutmeg Tennis Club for their not soon to be forgotten complimentary formal dance that was held at the swank Stanley Golf Club in New Britain last Fri day night. The affair was the dance of dances and never has your newsboy seen such an exam pie of splendid arrangement and carrying out of an affair. During one of our serious moments while attending the thought came to me that it would be fine thing for the race if we could learn to co-ope- rate in all things just as the guests did at the formal.
 Our Negro presentations of both the Hartford and New Britain po- lice forces were represented one hundred percent in the company of their wives and in the uniforms of people out for an evening of pleasure. Jimmy Singleton and the Mrs. represented the New Bri-
