Members Of The Cast of "When
Shakespeare's Ladies Meet" chalk
ed up their fifth triumph Friday
evening when they presented their
play for the East Building Moth
ers club party in the Guild Hall.
The play was very we'll received
and several outstanding things
happened, that have never hap
pened before, to make the mem
bers feel that at last they "have
arrived" in the theatre.
Of course they haven't received
any raves in metropolitan news
papers, won any Oscars or been
asked to appear on television,
those things being merly inciden-
tai and will come with time.
But here are the reasons why
they now feel that they are en-
titled to star on their dressing
room door: Following the perfor-
nance they had one (D request
for an autograph, one (D request
for instructions to cut or tear the
paper dolls which is Ophelia's s
speciality act during the show, they
all received beautiful corsages
from the Mothers club, and last
but not least they had their play
recorded on a wire recorder at the
invitation of Rev. Thomas who felt
it was so well done at should be
preserved for posterity."
After the recording was made,
Rev. Thomas very graciously play
ed a part of it back SO the cast
could hear how they sounded unto
themselves and how they've been
sounding unto others.

up little art today. And the pic
ture of the week would be that of
the nine stalwart Oddfelows who
served the food at the Rebekah's
mother-daughter banquet We'd

them for their beauty, exactly, nor.
'on second thought, for their shapes
but because we think they'd make
a charming picture in their lace
trimmed and beruffled aprons and
we'd title it, "Sirs, you're bibs are
showing"
All fooling aside, though, they
did mighty good job of serving
and the food reached US piping
hot, which is more than can be
said of some banquets we've at
tended in our day. Omigosh, may
be we should tell you who these
fellows are, just in case you could
use a good hash singer in your

James Roosevelt Wants to Be Gov ernOr of California

LOS ANGELES, (P) - James Roosevelt is candidate for the nomination for Governor of Cal ifornia.
 The eldest son of the late PreSi- dent, in a blast at the present "non-partisan" administration of Gov. Earl Warren, however, an- nounced last night that he will seek both the Democratic and Re publican nominations in the pri- maries next June.
 Gov. Warren, who has not yet announced whether he will seek reelection next year, was chosen for second term in 1946 by win ming both the Republican and Democratic nominations in the primaries.
 Roosevelt will be 42 years old next month. He has been a Cali fornia resident for II years and is the states Democratic nation al committeeman.
 Roosevelt's probable opponent in the primary is George Luckey, Democratic state vice chairman who conducted President Tru- mans Presidential campaign in southern California after fighting to keep the state in the Truman column before the national con- vention.
 He is the second of the late Presidents sons to run for office. His brother, Franklin, Jr., was elected to Congress from New York last Spring.
