NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-
Broadway's new show season
is rolling into action-with an
invasion and an Irishman pro-
viding special excitement.
The invasion is by some Of
the young blood responsible for
the surging revival of expert
mental stagecraft in off,
Broadway halls during the past
couple of years. Three produc-
ing groups are making the big
switch to the main stem.
The Irishman involved is
that mordant penman, George
Bernard Shaw. Three of his
best-known dramas arrive
within six weeks.
These tidings. plus reports
from busy rehearsal halls,
crowded booking Offices and
excited agents provide pros
poets of a season that may
well rival the glowing accom-
plishments of the previous
semester. And last season, by
general acclaim, was the best
in a decade.
New Theaters
Even that perennial Broad
way woe. finding enough thea
tiers, shows some signs Of
abating with several houses
reconverting to stage produc-
tons from recent guises as
movie palaces and television
studios.
Here is a digest of the fall
lineup:
Twenty-nine shows are def
initely dated for openings and
at least that many more are
in various stages of production.
Among feminine stars to
glitter on the White Way will
be Rosalind Russell, Judy Hol-
liday. MeXico'S Katy Jurado,
Linda Darnell of Hollywood
in her stage debut, Shelly
Winters, Claire Bloom, Ethel
Norman, Sylvia Sidney back
from a long absence and per-
haps Anna Magnani.
On the masculine star pa
rade will be Walter Slezak,
Barry Sullivan, Maurice Evans,
Charles Laughton, Bert Lahr,
Ezio PIMA. Edmund Purdom,
David Wayne. Sir Ralph Rich
ardson and Walter Pidgeon,
the latter back on the boards
after a quarter century in film
land.
A croSs-section of European
stagecraft will be provided

self does now.
Even Kentucky's resem-
blance, however, is not so close
that MGM could escape build
ing a special 1865-type rail-
road Station-all front and no
back-for us mourners. 1t had
a period train, the one of ever
so many movies including
1.-THE Great motive
Chase" Period trains. wood
burners, can't be dashed off
by prop departments, clever as
they are.
From the way the scene
was handled, the only con-
clusion to be drawn is that
we must be the most intel
ligent extras ever. OF course.
there is another conclusion,
namely that the scene is not
very important or such a long
shot that nothing mattered.
This is not a flattering con-
clusion and. of the two, is
easier to reject.
Mr.. Dymtryk did not show
up for our acting, figuring
beyond a doubt that the more
expensive actors needed more
instruction than the extras.
For a while, this seemed UNI
grateful to little actors who
had got out of bed at 6 am,
dressed in a rented Danville
garage, and ridden out to the
set some Is miles in buses.
Major in Charge
Major Rupp, Mr.. Dymtryk's
assistant. acted as our herds
man. He is a small, curly
haired, incisive type. AS his
first name implies, he has the
gift of command, especially
with a walkie-talkie in his
hand.
He means it when he says,
"Okay, folks. this is a re-
hearsal. You'll line up, bright
colored dresses to the rear,
along the platform. The train
bearing Lincoln's body will be
coming from your left. You'll
watch its approach, sadly. AS
it reaches the platform, the
men will take off their hats,
bow their heads, and the
women will simply bow theirs.
too"
The train approached. just
as Major said it would, and
the people lifted their hats
bowed their heads, just as he
said they should.
Fine" Major said, after
which the mourners had a
hour to figure out their So
cial standing in Freehaven
the day Lincolns funeral train
went through.
A Role Refined
With the help of the MeSsrs.
Coe and Foxe, costume ex-
pertS, we figured out we should
have been the town doctor,
rather hitler and leaner
than usual in a stovepipe hat,
cutaway. lacy shirt and striped
pants. Our costume had the
name Charles Ruggles" let
tered on it. he a doctor type
among others.
1t had been intimated to
Mr.. Coe. or maybe it bespoke
a suppressed hunger, that he
was Freehaven's banker. BY
whatever process he arrived
at this notion, he turned out
to be a superb banker sort.
One that will be an acute loss
to acting if the scene, perish
the thought, should end up on
the cutting room floor.
Mr.. Foxe, who casts the
largest shadow of the three
Washingtonians in the cast,
was more of a problem. His
costume. as black as his stove
pipe hat from coat collar to
trouSer cuffs, gave him the APP
pearance of Freehaven's I'M
dertaker. Or, if not that, a
faro dealer or croupier pass
ing through.
A Distant Shot
By the. time we had figured
out who we were, which is
sort of basic to acting, the
camera was ready. 1t looked
$50 yards away, rather dis
tant for even Camera IS, the
largest ever used in making a
movie. There was nothing for

Miles Streeter lifted his head. "They
killed the cashier" he said. ''They got
away with twelve thousand dollars in
cash."

firmaiton-''sez it's pretty much of

He brushed a handkerchief across his
lips and came to his feet. He wrapped
his big frame in the Sheepskin coat.
''I'll be seeing you tomorrow" he said.
At the door he turned. 'T've tasted
worse chilli" he conceded grudgingly.
He waded through the snow to his horse,
swung into the saddle and rode out of
sight around the row of sheep corraIs
below old man Yoakum's house. :.
And two men came into the room that
Miles Streeter had just left The one
was tall and dark, with bulldog face;
the other was smaller, with the pointed
features of a rat The tall man had a

boiling water, just enough so that the
oats will soak up all the water, let
them soak for "a hours. Feed this to
the birds every day. The three or four
quarts of oats is enough for so to 60

Will soaked oats prevent thin shell
eggs? Perhaps they will help in some
cases. At least, they seem to work fine

cause of thin shells may be from either

have listed several of these factors
above. Chances are, that in this par
ticular case, the factor causing the
trouble was improper assimilation of
food nutrients. In other words, the
birds digestive system was not func-
tioning properly.
Now we know that oats do not con-
tain as high food value for poultry as
some of our other grains. But they are
a good conditioner for the birds. Per-

THE HOUSE WAS a chunk of frosted
icing lost in a wilderness Of snow. Miles
Streeter left his pony standing in tram
pied snow to stomp up on the porch and
kick the door with savage force. When
old man Yoakum opened the door he
stomped into the close warmth of the
living room.
Neither storm nor sleet," acclaimed
Miles Streeter bitterly, ''nor snow hip
deep to a tall Swede, shall stay these
swift couriers :. :" He placed a folded
newspaper on the oilcloth-covered table.
There's your Daily STAR" he said.

So a white-whiskered old sheep farmer

he can have a newspaper to start his

Yoakum.
''Now, Miles," said old man Yoakum.
Don't you go getting frantic. I got
pot of chill on the stove. l got hot
coffee. You shuck that sheepskin and
pull up at the table and I'll fix you in
a jiffy."
HE FILLED A bowl of chill con
carne The big mail carrier slipped cut
of his sheepskin coat and sat down at
the table.
''That'l warm up your innards,
Miles," he said. ''I'll just sorta read
the paper while you're eating"
Old man Yoakum found a pair Of
steel-rimmed spectacles, balanced them
carefully across his nose and spread
the newspaper before him on the table
opposite Miles Streeter. His faded blue
eyes followed the lines of print with
absorbed attention.
"Um," said old man Yoakum finally
''Sez here, Miles, that some Easter
capitalists are figgering to open the
Little Emma diggings again. That'll bt
a good thing-bring money into thu

With a spoon filled with beans half
way to his mouth Miles Streeter pauset
to stare at the old man curiously
''Yah!" said Miles Streeter derisively
Old man Yoakum ignored the com

was going over the newspaper.
