tenSely. He has an Irishman'S
dudgeon to degree that stops
just short of making even the
girl Brigid. the heroine, an un-
sympathetic character.
His Canon Skerritt, played
ably by Kenneth Huxham, is a
clerical aristocrat with Wither-
ing conviction that the Roman
church erred IN letting down the
bars to Anglo-Saxons. Reinforce
ing this bitter impression of the
church's blind democracy is the
Canon's need to deal with a
pair of curates that would MAIN

The one person cf non-Latln
lineage who comforts the clerical
autocrat is his serving gill
Brlgid. For her goodness, SIM
plicity, universal 1--we and the
strange wisdom he finds in her,
the Canon can forgive Brigio her
peasant superstitions.
This is a dramatic relationship,
and while the two involved are
fighting their duel of faith-the
one intellectual and tired, the
other simple and fresh-Carroll
presents a number of others.
With the exception of the ideal

ing, too, for the fact that the
company was on a strange
stage in strange country and
in a theater that must have
seemed to it as unintimate as
Union Station.
There is no brogue to pene-
trate in the case of this group.
1t is not that, as Americans used
to complain of the Abbey at
times in its great day of touring.
The fact is the Dublin players
make lovely music of the Eng
liSh language. but it was fire.
Quently a little, and often lost,
music in a theater so much less
cozy than the ones at home.
The Dubliners are an acting
group. Their emphasis is upon
performance with an almost
complete absence of production.
If the acting lacks the sting and
bite that compels attention to a
play such as Carrolls. the spec
tator'S senses are apt to make
unhappy note of apparent i'm
provisations.
This was the flaw of the OPEN

They have something of
closer kinShip with the lndlgna-
ton out of which Carroll wrote
his drama of life in Canon
Thomas Skerritt's parochial
house in an Irish hill town. They
understand the conflict between
an austere member of the Catho-
lie hierarchy and a simple, de-
voted serving girl. and the more
helter-s -skelter one between the
austere clergyman and his nitWit
flock.
Thus they are able to make
more of the play in some ways
than the original American pro-
duction while making less of it
in others.

with great success. Processed
dill pickles are begun in strong
brine, later placed in a dill So

Sour pickles are made from
cucumberS cured in brine, later
packed in vinegar liquor, fla
vored with picking spices.
Whole or sliced or mixed with
other pickles, they are packed in
glass jars.
Sweet pickles are from pickles
cured in vinegar, then drained
before being covered with sweet,
spicy liquor. QuickieS include
dill, sweet or sour. They are
popular for home picking.
A most delicious sauce to serve
with fish is made of cucumbers,

Cucumber Time.

Cucumber pickles have been
popular since the days when
Caesar and his legions consid-
cred them a must on long cam
paigns. Ancient mariners always
took quantities of them on long
sea voyages.
Queen Elizabeth I priced them
highly as dehcacieS on State oc-
casions, and it is said Cleopatra
considered them Important
beauty aids.
What impresses Americans is
their vitamin value. At Mich
igan State College, a three-year
research project studied pickles
from every State. CucumberS,
picked and otherwise, were
found to possess health-giving
and bodybuilding Vitamin A,
Bl and B2 besides a considerable
amount of c vitamin. and some
essential minerals, like iron.
George Washington and John
Adams in their diaries recorded
their appreciation for pickles
and Thomas Jefferson wrote,
"On a hot day in Virginia,
know of nothing more comfort
ing than a fine. spiced pickle,
brought up troutlike, from the
sparkling depths of that aro-
matte jar below stairs in Aunt
Sally'S cellar"
AS a vegetable, cucumbers are
fourth in acreage of all vege-
tables grown. There was time
when the cucumber patch con-
tributed cash to the family.
There are four basic pickle
types-dillS, sourS, sweets and
quickieS. The countless pickle
variations we are familiar with
are the genuine dill, produced by
placing freSh-picked whole Gu
cumbers into a brine favored

AIRS Well That Ends Well

ar Secretary of Commerce Weeks has been
man enough to say he was wrong and that de-
spite his previous views he is now convinced
that the retention of DR.. Allen V.>AStin as di-
rector of the Bureau of Standards sis in the
best interests of the bureau and the public"
For that he deserves credit, and st is evi-
dent that Mr.. Weeks must realize that he got
himself involved in as clumsy bungle as any
that has been witnessed in these parts for many
day. So much for that. There is no point in
simplifying the details of an error of judgment
when the man who made it admits his mistake.
There are a few comments, however, that
should be made about DR.. AStin One of them
is that during the course of an ordeal that
must have been most trying, he never lost his
dignity or professional attitude of which his
colleagues one may be sure, are proud. He has
never recanted on the balanced and objective
defense he made of the scientific integrity of
the work of Bureau of Standards. Throughout
the farcical attempt by a bunch of politicians
to demonstrate the scientific" value of COM
mercial dope to revtalize batteries DR.. Astin's
calm and diSpaSSionate recital of what the
scientists really founder failed to find-re-
manned mistaken.
Mr.. Weeks has anticipated portions of the
Standards by the committee of scientists he
asked to evaluate its work Out of that report,
when it becomes public, benefits may accrue
to the bureau which will more than offset its
difficulties in the past few months. There is
definite recognition, from what Mr.. Weeks has
said of the bureaus handicapS and of the
multiplicity of detail under which the directors
of recent years have been forced to labor But
none of these benefits will approach, in their
Importance, the victory that so plainly has
politically motivated assault which for time
endangered its fine tradition.
Among the compensations to DR.. Astin and
the Bureau of Standards resulting from this
whole episode is the pledge that in the future
the Secretary of Commerce will handle mon
technical and procedural matters on CONNER
cial product evaluation" That may be taken
to mean that Mr.. Weeks, and not the Bureau
of Standards, now holds the bag on the validity
of claims made by the manufacturers of the
battery additive which brought about this
whole dispute. He is going to hold the bag on
q number of other commercial articles offered
for sale, concerning which the Government
under law, may have to pass.
One somehow has the impression, however,
that if Mr. Weeks asks the Bureau of Standards
to evaluate the worth of these articles by
scientific analysis he is not going to fire the
director if the bureau finds they are worthless
