NEW HORIZONS
SOMETIMES WE become so absorbed in distant things
that we tend to forget our own or what is closest at hand, and
the part that native Virgin Islanders play elsewhere is Ger
tainly among these matters. For many years Virgin Islanders
have been winning respect and admiration for their services.
on the mainland and elsewhere, and this is a fact of which we
may very Justly be proud not only because it is good to know
that our fellow citizens and brothers win accomplishment, but
equally for what is does to the name Of the Virgin Islands
wherever these people serve. The assignment Of Dr.. Moor
head Chief Public Health officer for these islands to Point "
in Liberia serves as a reminder of what is actually taking
place.
WHMENoT VERY definite, it is understood that Miss
Helen Joseph, now on the continent, will also head for Africa
under a Point " program. She is fully qualified having done
work on the graduate level in this field at the University Of
Michigan. But there are others, who, while they may not be
going with the United Nations nevertheless are serving in
capacities which focus mostmost favorable attention on the
Virgin Islands. Among these are Attorney James A. Bough,
former US. District Attorney for these Islands, and now Chief
Of the Caribbean Division; Dr.. G. James Fleming, recently
made executive editor of the New York Amsterdam News.
Then there is Dr. Aonzo Moron, who holds the distinction Of
being the first native of these islands to head a college on the
mainland
SERVING IN positions of distinction where
their influence may count are men in the teaching field on the
college and university level, among these being Lionel Frazer,
dean at Tougaloo College in Mississippi, &Dr. Flavus Cali
Der, on the staff Of the College Of Dentistry, Howard Uni
yersity. To this list may be added those in labor, the most
well known Of which is Ashley I. Totten, international Sece-
tary-Treasurer Of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Poters. In
the field Of religion are many members Of the clergy, among
which are Rev. Paul T. West, and Rev. Leonard Plaskett-
THERE HAS BEEN no effort here to make an exhaus-

IN MEMORY

IN
In memory of Mrs. Mae Wheel
er, who passed away three years
ago, March II, 1949.
Should you go first and I re-
main
To walk the road alone,
I'll live in memory'S garden,
dear,
With happy days we've known.
In spring I'll watch for roses
red,
When fades the lilac blue,
In early fall when brown
leaves call
I'll catch a glimpse of you.
Should you go first and I re-
For battles to be fought,
Each thing you've touched
along the way
Will be a hallowed spot.
I'll hear your voice, I'll see
your smile,
Though blindly I may grope,
The memory of your helping
hand
Will buoy me on with hope.
Should you go first and I re-
main
To finish with the scroll.
No tightening shadows shall
creep in
To make this life seem droll
We've known so much of
happiness,
We've had I'LL cup of joy,
And memory is one gift of
God
That death cannot destroy.
Should you go first and l re-
main
One thing I'd have you do:
Walk slowly down that long,
long path,
For soon I'll follow you.
I'll want to know each step
you take.
That l may walk the same,
For someday down that lonely
road
You'll hear me call your name.

In Last Weeks

comedy, unrelated to the Center
series Of plays. is listed for the
Gayety the week of April %.
This is Katharine Cornell'S
ost-Broadway booking Of Som
erset Maugham's 'The Constant
Wife," which has just given its
star her most successful New
York season in years. After a
week here, and three additional
StanzaS in Boston, Miss Cornell
will close the play for a summer
sabbatical. In the Fall, she will
begin a 77-city tour in the still
amusing Vaughan comedy of
marital manners.
A WistfuI Postscript
When they wrote a rueful
postscript to 1872 last week
with the selection of IT am a
Camera" as the years best play,
the New York critics could have
had one consolation. Dismal as
their years work was, it was
considerably better than any
thing "road" cities had to
recall.
Nearest thing to a contem-
porary prize play seen in this
area all season was 1.-THE Four
poster" at Olney last summer.
1t did corral eight votes, as
against Is for the winning
Venus Observed" by Christo-
pher Fry. as the best foreign
play Of the season.
OF the other productions
which figured in the critics bal
loting. a total of eight in all,
Washington audiences saw not
one. These included the second
place play, Mrs. McThing."
and the other runners-up "The
Shrike." Point of No Return"
Barefoot in Athens" "The
Grass Harp" and the musicals.
Pal joey" Three Wishes for
jamie" and Paint Your
Wagon"
Next season with the Ma
tional back in business and
Broadway producers more con-
scious of Washington as a two
theater city, it is highly unlikely
that this degree of poverty will
be repeated.
Its restoration to it's old
status as a tryout spot should
give Washington at least a
prlor-to-Broadway glimpse of
several candidates for the 1888
best play award.

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK.
Once upon a time a New
York stenographer did what
every working gal sometime
dreams of doing.
She went to lunch one day
and didn't go back to the office.
Not for years and years-over
five anyway. When she did
return, just the other day, her
ex-boss beamed and said it was
okay.
Because by running off like
that she had done something
else most gals dream of-she
had become a big star and her
name now gloWed in lights over
Broadway.
Story With Moral
All this is no fable, but a
story with a sort of moral and
some words of comfort for all
her sisters in the land still
humping typeWriters.
Il had more dates then than
! have now" says this Cinder-
ella, whose real name is Isabel
Bigley. And imagine a stenoe-
rapher's mother going to work
with her every day!"
Miss Bigley is a blue-eyed
and sunny-mannered lovely
from the Bronx who is one of
the principal reasons why the
musical Guys and Dolls" has
been playing to standing room
only for some 10 weeks at the
Forty-sixth Street Theater. Miss
Bigley sings with a Tilt and one

wrote Gregg into notebook at
80 words a minute. Since she is
a level-headed lovely, she still
keeps in practice.
She is also able to coolly check
off some pros and cons of her
past job versus her present ca
reer. She got a stock taking
when she went off on her senti-
mental journey back to Lower
Broadway and the insurance Of
flee she last saw at lunchtime
in November, 1916.

me that 1 was interested in a
theatrical career and they were

plains. Then this day I was
called for an addition. 1 said
I might be a little late getting
back. But I did not get back
that day, or the next, or the
next. 1 was phoning so much
that I just had to quit"
The addition got Isabel into
the chorus of "Oklahoma!" "My
former boss went to see it later
on and told me afterward he
missed nearly the whole show
trying to find me! Next she got
