theater is enthusiastic" Freedley
said. ANITA is attempting to help
both the professional and the
amateur in the theater. We are
trying to develop new, young
playwrights through the expert
mental theater by assisting re-
gional theaters in doing new plays
and by sponsoring play contests.
I'VE send out experienced pro-
fessional actor and actress stars
to appear with local theater COM
panies, for instance, we sent Colin
Keith Johnston to star in The
Winslow Boy in the Albuquerque.

McComas to star in The Glass

"Such appearances Of estab-
lished stars will help rebuild au-
diences across country for future
touring companies.
I'VE are sending new plays to
community theaters because some
of those very fine municipal play
houses said they were having diff
flculty in getting agents to send
them new plays. ANITA Is remedy
ing that problem"
Other than helping theaters
throughout the 48 States to &C
quire the services Of stars. plays
and other needs for active theater
production. ANITA does many small
jobs to assure that the theater
reaches every crossroads.
AS an example. the Wyncote
Players Of Wyncote, Pa. recently
sent urgent word that they would
be unable to open q new play
they had just produced because
they could not find pulleys to raise
and lower the curtain in their
playhouse.
ANITA volunteer technicians be-
gan a search on Broadway. found
the required pulleys on a curtain
in a Rialto theater and borrowed
them from the Broadway pro-
ducer who owned the house. That
night the pulleys were on the cur
tain in Wyncote, Pa. and the
show opened as scheduled.

looking upon their profession with

unfortunate time for the schools
