Through a slight alteration in
construction plans. the newest
cruise ship will be able to make
Washington a port of call when it
begins roaming romantic seas next
spring. The liner is the Ocean
Monarch, into which luxury and
innovations for comfort and con-
venience now are being built fol-
lowing its launching in England
a few months ago.
Before the ship was designed,
the Furness Witty Line decided
the projected vessel would be of
such shallow draft as to permit
visits to many picturesque ports,
in the Caribbean and elsewhere,
now closed to other cruise ships
because of shoals or inadequate
channels. Local interests who
have been working on developing
and promoting the port of Wash

If present plans materialize, the
United States Travel Agency will
conduct a cruise from Washing

The raveIers Notebook
In Which Guest Writes of Europe by Air

Here are some random notes on
how to see most of free Europe in
18 days and still be able and
anxious to do it again.
First of all. If possible. have
yourself invited by Trans-World
Airlines to visit their station stops
on the other side of the Atlantic.
If you get the invitation, you can
relax completely and be assured
of a grand tour, as they "say it
with service"
But it can be done without
exactly an invitation and the
following is intended as a partial
guide on things to be done in
preparation, attractions and facil-
tiles you probably will find on the
other side and how to get yourself
back in the United States =.
not by any means the easiest part
of the job.
Up on the flight deck of any
transport airplane they have a
check list" which is reviewed
by the pilot, co-pilot and flight
engineer before each takeoff. I
suggest one for each passenger
1t should contain such items as
passports and visas. an official
record Of inoculations, a note to
take out travel insurance and to
buy travellers checks; also, a
listing in some detail of what you
should include in your luggage,
Aunt Minnie's postcard address
back home, letters of introduction
to people who may or may not
want to see you, addresses of old
friends who used to live in Paris
or London or wherever, and so on.
Any good travel agency or your
own airline or shipping company
can tell you what you need in
the way of visas and ineculations.
Get them before departure. Your
inoculation record may not even
be looked at abroad but it cer-
tainly will be when you touch
American soil on return. And 1t
has to be right or your vacation
will be extended by a spell In
quarantine.
Travellers Checks Best-Ameri-
can dollars are useful anywhere
and in some shopping places
abroad you can even cash per-
sonal checks. But travellers
checks are best and safest of all.
They mean dollars to foreign
countries and In many cases shops
will give you a better price on
merchandise II you pay by
travellers checks rather than by
their own currency. This is not
black market dealing; 1t is an ac-
cepted trade procedure by which
the spending of American money
is encouraged.
Be careful, incidentally, not to
overload yourself with the local
currency in any country, because
you can't cash it back into dollars
and you are bound to lose if you

export departments where the
cream of their wares is available
at the best prices. They'll ship
your stuff home, insured, and it
can be customs free if it comes
within your $500 allowance and is

customs declaration to be made
out just before landing on return.

More than once l have heard
expressions among Sewar d
adults of a wish for little thea
ter group. There is one now, but
like every other pioneer group
in any field whatever, the Sew
ard Repertory Theater move
ment needs help.
In the words of one of the
group leaders, "The theater,
properly used is a valuable tool
in education, and as a general
gateway to art has no superior
and very few equals. 1t is a
spring board, a taking off point
in art, history, and literature.
Its scope is as all embracing
as life itself and requires the
coordination of multitude of
, activities, 1t cannot be prac-
ticed alone; no individual how
ever gifted can practice the art
of the theater; it must be prac-
ticed by a group and can en-
brace the whole community.
"In this modern society, writ
ing, speaking and theater going
are important activities. We are
nation of theater goers. Those
of us who seldom see profess
sional play are deeply interest
ed in movies, and the radio
! theater.'
A few people have had the

| in Seward. Let's get behind
them and help put the city
among those others in the Ter
ritory that have successful anna
teur theater groups. Everything
meaning every sort of help
| is needed. From those who have
had experience on the amateur
stage, those who would like to
act a part and join in the fun
of play preparation to others
who like the building and stage
settings, costuming, m a k e u p
etc, for the production itself.
But first it is imperative that
the building be made habitable.
There is no money available to
the Gateway Repertory. They
have no means of financing the
project until after their first
successful play. They need lum-
Der, both dressed and unfinish-
ed. Glass, paint, electrical fix
