East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1953-01-29
Theatre

The Cleveland Play House will
stage Darkness At Noon" at its
Euclid-77th Theatre for limited
engagement Of three weeks. 1t
opened on Wednesday.
The play by Sidney Kingsley,
based on a novel of the same name
by Arthur Koestler, is the best
drama we have had on an anti
communist theme. Mr.. William
McDermott of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer shares our endorsement of
this drama and expresses in apt
words the attitude all of us should
have towards this gifted writing.
He says, "There should be law
obliging people to attend Dark
ness at Noon" But don't think of
it as a preachment. And don't
think of it as depressing. 1t is
neither. 1t is a simple and heart
rending story of man who puts
a curious and distorted pride of
intellect above the promptings of
his heart who paid for his mistake
with his life"
There will be Special Saturday
matinee performance on Feb. 7th.
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1953-01-29

East Cleveland is noted for a
number of excellent things-not
the least of which is its community
spirit. That none may fear a de-
crease in this necessary character
istic one need but look to the fine
program at the ECBA annual din
ner. Shaw students sang and Shaw
Principal Wayne c. Blough in
stalled the officers. Here is a
combination service that is giving
the youth an incentive to follow
through in community service.
Shaw High School students are
welcoming the return of all five
of their polio stricken classmates.
What spark for East Cleveland's
Mothers March tonight!
There isn't going to be the
slightest doubt in determining the
alcoholic content of the blood of
