Let's Hove No Secrets
BY LEONARD LYONS

NEW YORK.-The authors
and directors Of long-running
shows on Broadway usually
visit the plays intermittently to
make notes about the perform
ances. They then discuss these
criticisms and suggestions with
the performers to make sure Of
maintaining q fresh pace.
Although Paddy Chayefsky's
"The Tenth Man" opened only
recently to unanimous raves, he
dropped into the theater the
other night, then went back
stage-first to the dressing
room of Arnold Marie, who
plays the cabalist. Marie had
two visitors there and when
Chayefsky mentioned he had
some notes to discuss. the actor
interrupted him: "Shh
come outside in the hallway"
They stepped outside and
Marie explained he didn't like
to discuss notes in front of 9TH
ers. Paddy said, But my note
to you is-you were marvellous
tonight, just marvellous" Marie
stepped back into his dressing
room and said, Come in, Pad

It is based upon his novel,

tells about the conquest Of a

The Citadel is the mountains

Now comes JOS son, Rudi

boy to let a mountain get away
with such o defiant triumph.
Young Rudi, q dishwasher in a
resort hotel at its base. looks
daily at the Citadel as the lad
who is going to humiliate it
some day by planting his
fathers shirt on its summit.
Actually. it turns out that
fate provides him with an even

he plans. Moving the picture

through April 10 to raise money

Tor athletics. The project is spon-
sored by the Amelia Athletic Light
ing Association.
With Ada Anderson as chairman,
the school sponsored a movie at the
local drive-in theatre on Wednes-
day night, April 8. All proceeds
went to the project. They amounted
to $3.50. Food brought by pupils
each day during the week was sold
at recess, each home room having
a day to bring the food. This
brought in $49.75.
Posters were put up over tn e
school and donations asked for the
cause. Lighting Week replaced

Principal Boepple told the stu

morning, the Athletic Lighting AS

around the field at cost Of $1,000
or maybe a little more He said
that money raised by the students
would possibly go toward I h e
fence. Lights are expected to cost
around $1,000. He expressed the
view that the go-ahead signal was
not far off, but work would not be
finished in time for the school to
use the field before next fall al
though it could be used by county
teams and for softban during the
summer.
He said lights were necessary for
the continuance of the athletic pro-
gram at the high school, 1t will
