IiltIt, LANA buIIleJ he NlueS-
ton" went into rehearsal. We
sat in on some of these sessions
and many of the earlier dag
nostic ones in which the work
was analysed. We even took part
in the discussions and offered an
occasional suggestion.
This sort of thing, plus the
fact that the play is Broadway
prospect that a critic might be
meeting formally one day, gave
the project more than an aca-
demic interest. Even in that
academic atmosphere.
This is where the director
came in. His name is F. Cowles
Strickland. who teaches and di-
reefs at Stanford. Strick, which
everyone calls him except his
two children, is as close to unique
as humans come He is the kind,
for instance. who can analyze
his own work so effectively that
ones parting words to him can
safely be:
Write me how it comes off in
opening performance"
He writes, as follows, of THE
Question" which stars two such
pros of Broadway as Aline Mac
Mahon and Clarence Derwent:
Il know We have an impress
sive performance but of what,
I'm not sure. Last night our
most critical and antagonistic
audience sat quietly through the
whole show and applauded more
than usual. Possibly they were
applauding actors for their
valiant efforts against ungrate-
full material, but actually 1 think
they were impressed.
I'D be sure there is an audi
ence for this play (Which asks
and attempts to answer: Why
did it have to be my son who
was killed in Korea?), but
doubt that we will find it in
three days.
THE prologue is real shocker
and leaves everyone confused. I
insist upon starting it with audi
forum lights on and the players
just walk in and begin. At that
point the audience is not sure
whether it has come to the right
auditorium on the right night.
Aline's one break. asking the
question, is a jolt. Then the
prayer, taps, and they all file
of. But you can't applaud
prayer OF taps.

When a friend is i'll, naturally
you want TO go see her. When you
go, do not stay too long and take
only pleasant news to the sick
room.
The sick always try to keep up
the conversation. They feel they
should, and as long as you stay,
you are taking much needed rest
from them. In heavens name,
don't tell the sick you know some
one who had just what they have,
only she died!
Right then, unconsciously, the
sick one begins to worry, and sad
news can really cause a relapse.
Not long ago a friend went to
hospital to call on his sick
neighbor. The door was closed TO
his room and the familiar sign,
mo Visitors" was on the door
Did that stop him from opening
the door and coming in?
He walked into the room, right
up to the bed and said man, I
didn't know you was that sick!"
The patient raised up and said,
Il only have a cold, but because /
have had pneumonia recently they
thought II best / come to the hos
pital." Then he saw the card board
in his friends hand and asked
him what IL was. He showed il to
the patient. (the visitor had
brought the No Visitor sign in the
room with him.
The shocked wife had recovered
sufficiently to assure her husband
the doctor had the sign put up on
the door so he would have rest and
quiet for a few days. The patient
really had a bad case Of pneu-
monia but was recovering nicely
He was TO have gone home in a
few days, but whether he realized
II or not, he wondered about that
sign. He never mentioned IT, but
that night the doctors stayed in
his room half the night fighting to
save his life. He recovered and
said the sign didn't worry him at
an, but the doctors are sure It
did. That is why we must be care
ful what we say and do when call
ing on the sick.

Tuesday that his plan for a one
hour protest against conditions
In the South was for prayer in
stead OF work stoppage as an
nounced by press services last
week end
II was not learned whether
Powell was misquoted or whether
he had changed his plan after
some Negro leaders throughout
the country notably in the North
objected TO a work stoppage.
Many OF them said that the
present situation was serious but
that penalizing northern industry
which is largely In sympathy OF
the southern Negroes plight was
unsound
Powelrs announcement stated
Negro workers would be asked TO
go To some church on their lunch
hour or after work and spend an
hour In prayer for both the whites
and Negroes in the South's race
