NEW YORK.

NEW YORK.
The 43 English players in the Old
Vic company, who have just ended
the last of six weeks of repertory on
Broadway, have been busy offstage
finding out if the things they've
heard about America are true.
They were somewhat prepared for
skyscrapers. They expected lots of
food, too. But apparently no one
thought to tell them of the thick
Sunday papers. They've been left
practically speechless by the size of
newspapers. And 24-year-old Mar
garet Leighton adds a sidelight:
"The funniest things I've seen on
the sidewalks of New York have
been men walking around with
whole Sunday papers stuck in their
pockets and looking like big stalks
of flowers growing there
The trip has not lacked its tribu-
lations.
Some critics complained the play
ers spoke too fast or too British. "
Grimly they rehearsed in a theater
too large for their company and
got the problem of voice projection
under control.
After eight performances in four
days, Ralph Richardson, one of the
stars, lost his voice and was forced
to remain in his hotel room. Then
Laurence Olivier got a cold. The
entire casting was changed and they
went on

Some never had seen a play be-

complete success. From the

planes and f1oated them through
