Sam Spewack to write as rich a
woman's role in this play as Will
liams did in her first one.

do that. Williams, she agrees with
every one else, is the most bril-
liant asset for young actresses. He
is always creating roles for them

Miss Hunter is interested in Will
liams' next play. Not as a pros
pective role for her. but for what
it will show of his talent; whether
it has grown and how much. She
thinks Summer and Smoke" was
a better play than it worked out
to be and, having worked with
Kazan, wonders what he might
have made of it.
Another play she is anticipating,
again with no thought of being
in it although she would like to be,
is that one on which Thornton
Wilder has ben working these last
few years.
II spent an evening after Street
Car opened in New Haven listen
ing to Williams and Wilder talk
about their different methods of
work." Miss Hunter says.
Talk was never more fascinat-
ing, and maybe neither was the
sight of two such different play
wrights sitting down together -
she adds.
1t is the sort Of experience,
along with many others, that
makes young actress feel that
the stage is more exciting as a
place to work than any other
place, even Hollywood.

secretly egging on the leopard, cynically smiling
at his great leapng proof that iron bars do not

the human. They can even feel justified, now
that the leopard, showing nice sense for the
well rounded story has come back to outwit his
keepers by the ultimate act OF dying when they
tried to keep him alive. In way, he seemed
nice sort of cat, with an almost human under

In the Best Naval Tradition

Captain William D. Browns assumption OF
full responsibility for the grounding OF the
battleship Missouri is in line with the best
traditions of the naval service. It is unfortunate
however, that he waited so long to make his
statement in exoneration Of the officers impli-
Gated in the mishap. His earlier testimony to the
Court of Inquiry had tended to reflect seriously
on these officers.
The ill-starred skipper of the Mighty Mo was
stating an ancient maxim of the sea when he
tsld the court: GAS captain of the ship, 1t was
my duty to keep her safe and secure. I didn't
do it." It is evident that in undertaking this
duty Captain Brown was beset by serious diff
culties including conflicting advice from officers
on whom he should have been able to rely,
inadequate and confusing information regarding
buoys and rustiness of himself and other officers
These difficulties suggest that others besides
Captain Brown may be cited by the court for
share in the blame. Captain Brown has shown
good Judgment in leaving to the court any
division of responsibility for what happened to
the Mo- That is the courts task, and from the
trend of its investigation to date there Is good
reason to believe that it will do a thorough job

Keeping books and phonograph record

merely on our climate, often are caused

AS fine as trees are-and nothing else
so makes neighborhood seem so

Young persons commonly regard trees

older householders have learned to see

This is q good time Of the year to look
over ones place with view to clearing
out unnecessary trees.
One Of the real gains, If one collects

difficult to remove, once 1t Is on, espe-
cially from record album bindings.

Yes, cut them down, If there are too
many close to the house.
Locusts and other short-lived species
not only create too much mildew, caus-
ing damage to clothing, furniture, hang

but also may fall at any time, especially
in heavy rain and windstorms of sum-

The life of the locusts, in particular,
is an unknown quantity.
One resident of nearby Maryland has
had to have taken down on his place
full dozen specimens in 20 years, while
right next door are four big ones still
standing.
Several of his own locusts had pulled
away from the earth at one side, q sure
indication of coming fall.
Many persons fail to see such an indi-
cation and let such a tree remain,
living danger to life and limb and to
property.
The surest way is to keep all trees at
such distance that, falling, they cannot
touch the house.
This not only removes a real danger to
the building and its occupants but
makes sure that such mildeW as may be

luridly about it, the average individual appears
to be admirably calm. As human beings with
an inborn desire to enjoy life, most of us tend
to resist being forever frightened by dismal
possibilities. The Cassandras, of course, may be
completely right. Still, it does not seem un
wholesome to be reasonably optimistic and
prayerfuly hopeful that the terrifying destruc-
tiveness of modern weapons will in itself help
nightly to prevent war.
In the last analysis, after all, everybody has
to leave this earth sooner or later, in one way or
another. There is therefore much to be said
for the philosophical view that even If the worst
happens and suicide dust" engufs us, the
experience may in fact be less painful than
such commonplace forms of extinction as being
