Oil Group Attacks
.FPC Gas Regulations
By the Associoted Press

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. s.
Controversial resolution on reg
ulation of natural gas compa-
nieS by the Federal Power Com
mission and on public lands
were adopted by the Interstate
Oil Compact Commission at its
closing session today.
The resolution urged the
States to make every effort to
secure rehearing by the United
States Supreme Court of a ruling
that Phillips Petroleum Co. is
subject to regulation by the
power commission. 1t was passed
without dissenting vote although
there was sentiment at the
meeting that the compact should
not enter a case still before the
court.
The high court refused last
Monday to consider a ruling by
the Circuit Court Of Appeals

putting the company under the
FPC for regulation Of natural
gas rates in several Midwest
States. Earlier the power COM
mission had ruled that Phillips
was not engaged in interstate
commerce.
The public lands resolution
was modified considerably from
it's original draft. 1t points to
several bills before Congress
affecting oil developments in
Federal lands, principally in
Western States.
However, to avoid an almost
certain fight, no recommended
ton was made as to passage of
the bills.

writes about a channel swimmer
(English) who enters the contest
to supply the family's farm with
a thoroughbred bull. This may
very we'll be the noblest motive
for which any girl ever tried to
swim from France to England.
Channel swimming is a serious
business. but Dangerous When
Wet" is not. 1t is as light
hearted as a lark at morning
although not as effortless in ex-
pressing itself.
This is certainly the spirit of
the passages dealing with Car
sons effort at training Miss
Williams for her swim. those in
which she fences Economically
with Lamas, and the highlight
sequence in which Esther per-
forms her latest Aquatic ballet.
This, you may be sure. is the
really imaginative touch in
Dangerous When Wet" and it is
pretty impressive as Aquatic
ballets go. In this one. Miss
Williams is supported by small
animated Disney-type animals,
just the sort a girl would like to
meet in her dreams.
Miss Williams has the time Of
her life, swimming rhythmically
with them on the bottom of the
English channel through the
hulls Of ships that make ideal
ballet settings.
There is just enough music in

If there was an Academy
Award for the movies healthiest
actress, Esther Williams would
win it hands down-or up, or
even sideways.
Esther's pictures with their
rosy-cheeked charm are to the
nations entertainment diet what
apple pie is to its more basic
menu. They are all made by the
same precise, unfailing recipe
and undoubtedly each brings in
an identical and impressive
profit to MGM.
In a world as unstable as this,
Miss Williams is a phenomenon
to be held in affection if not
actual awe. Indeed a bathing

either by those already familiar
with the wit and wizardry OF
Fry or those who have yet to

Without John Gielgud and
Pamela Brown, who first brought
1.-The Lady" to Washington, Fry's
play is still an aStoundingly agile
work that manages at once to
be uproariously comic, clever and
profound. Also without these
awesome performers, 1.-THE Lady"
is played by a group like that for
which Fry wrote it. competent
actors delighted to find them
selves involved in its innate wit
and wisdom.
It is a highly contagious de-
light that fills Olney's theater
with more intelligent merriment
that it has ever known. This,
too, despite the fact that the

missed perfection. This was most
notably evident in q third act
that lost pace and revealed a
small hole or two in Fry's
craftsmanship.
The exhilaration Of 1.-THE
Lady's Not For Burning" is the
brilliance with which it renovates
the English language. Fry's
characters, principally q disil-
lusioned young soldier who wants
to be hanged and a pretty girl
who does not want to be burned
at the stake, are comedy
originals.
1t is inconceivable that they
should speak the dull language
Of the dramas usual dull
humans. Fry sees to it that they
never do. He clothes their
thoughts in speech that is clear
and splendid and musical-and
funnier than anything any one
has heard in years.
1t leaves the spectator feeling
purged of most Of the sins he
has shared in reducing the
mother tongue to a withereG
crone, a bony shadow of it's
limitlessly beautiful possibilities.
X X X X
There is no confusion about
what THE Lady's Not For Burn
ing" is about in this summer
theater version. It is about
people and life, both of which
Fry finds extraordinarily anus
ing and exciting. They are con-
cerned with everything, life and
death, love. sex, art, religion.
heresy. the eating habits of owls
and the futility of scrubbing
floors.
The situation in which they
are Immediately involved makes
this abundance of experience
plausible.
1t is set in "a small town where
the turmoil is terrible because
the plays hero wants to be
hanged and it's heroine fights off
the community's intent to kill
her as witch. This Is municipal
delirium if any one ever heard
of it and Fry makes the hearing
alternately hilarious and sus-
penseful.
That he accomplishes it in
such a storm of unprecedented
talk is the miracle that holds
audiences spellbound while the
lady escapes from burning.
\ X +
For all their remarkability, the
characters of the Fry play are
easily and instantly recognizable.
Modern drama offers no COM
parably amusing figure to the
bitter hero. played so capably by
Basil Langton. This is tenn
pestuous young man who has
tried life, found it wanting, and
wants to get out of it as fast as
possible. He could kill himself,
of course, but there is something
cleaner about a legal hanging.
Moreover. while this is pending.
he can keep splitting his disdain
in the face of humanity which
he does with irresistible charm.
Miss Phillips beautiful witch,
at least witch by accusation,
is the perfect mate for F'ry's
hero and most cyclonic spokes-
man. She is wise and lovely and
anxious to give life a chance to
be better than it has been. yet
poised enough to face death
coolly if it is to be decreed.
The extreme demands Of
these key roles are handsomely
met at Olney. 1t takes more,
however, to find the brilliant es-
sence of the play.

Those were hard days in those
times for school teachers. We got
$50 a month from the State for
teaching" said Kelly as he rem
inisced about the days he taught
school when only Is students were
enrolled in the entire school.
The Roseland School was one
of the more progressive schools
according to Kelly and the paw
at the school included a STUMBLE
ment with provisions for adding
another teacher to the one teacher
school if the enrolment could be
increased. Kelly went by foot over
the dirt roads and visited everv
home in the school district and
ended up with 60 students on the
opening day of school. AS a result
OF this effort the community hired
another teacher and made Kelly
the principal.
He served as principal of the
RoSeland School for six years and
