Is her due as a reigning queen Of
the living drama.
IT, Olney plant, which in
cludes living quarters. eating
quarter , and pretty soon outdoor
swimmil.-, quarters. in addition to
the theater, is being made ready
for a queen-size first guest.
Summer theaters do not come
easily out Of winter quarters,
Information, or whatever they
come out of. They store a lot
of January's chill. the seats stand
naked without their slip covers,
the approaches pick up a lot OF
ripples from the frost and SHOWS,
and the rolling stages develop in
tolerable squeaks.
All these were almost COM
pletely eliminated when this cor
respondent visited the plant over
the week end. The last Of the
January air was disappearing
through the windows and doors.
the slip covers were nearly all in
place, the dust was gone, and the
graveled approach to the theater

were asking why they could not
eat there, too.
The actors will eat out this

tage, which last year was called
the Anchorage, over which Mrs,
Ethel Kramer presides.
Between the two places. the
theater's own hostel and the
Heritage, Olney will be able to
take care of as many as 40 actors
and staff members at one time.
This is lot of actors, maybe
