Review of The Play

The question of what constitutes
entertainment is brought more to
the fore in tclevision than in any
other media. Likewise is there
brought forth the problem of what
is good taste and bad timing
Last Friday evening while watch
ing the final appearance of Hugh
Downs on the Tonight show, a
comedian from the West Coast told
rather inane pointless story con-
corning a drunken bus driver on a
bus operating from New York City
to San Francisco. Just shortly be-
fore on the news cast from Pitts
burgh, Bill Burns reported the UNI
fortunate information concerning
the Greyhound bus driver who had
made an error in judgment while
driving his bus One instance where
the driver who was behind time in
his schedule and who in attempt
ing to pass a truck had an acct
dent which resulted in the death
of some passengers.
Perhaps I'm being over critical
and am looking for something that
doesn't exist. but it would seem to
me that here we have National
medium which can do better by be-
ing more intelligently mOnitored
The Tonight show is tapped earlier
in the evening, actually about three
hours before it is seen in the East
ern area. Hence knowing of the un-
fortunate accident the material of
the comic could have been edited
and the offensive material cut out
On the same program that cele-
brated actress Rita HaywOrth along
with Gary Merrill the eminent ac-
tor, we're guests. These two per-
sons are rehearsing for a play
step On A Crack" which they
hope will get on Broadway. In his
rather redundant manner, Hugh
Downs pontificated on how great a
difference there was in participant
ing in something SO wonderful as
Broadway opening night and just
appearing in summer stock. Hugh
Downs further stated that on
Broadway one had to depend more
on his individual ingenuity in pro-
viding d good Interpretation of a
role whereas in summer stock one
merely had to repeat lines which
had been found to be effective and
successful in the New York pre-
Scntation. This in my opinion is
the most sage observation of the
century from a man who has taken
over ten thousand bucks for a
weeks work in Warren, Ohio,
where he did Anniversary Waltz,

This season his major one is I'm

ly | think this is an evidence of
rank interpretation for being able
to get away with murder on the
summer stage Here is a TV per-
sOnality and not a trained actor
who is being grossly over compen-
stated for his efforts. A man who in
a very patronizing way is being
quite unjust to many competent
actors throughout the U.S.A. who
are doing an excellent job in the
summer theatre because they are
dedicated and doing what they
want to.
Actually the supposed crudite
Mr.. Downs is quite wrong when he
speaks of his doing summer stock
since daily he is appearing in
package deal which is quite diff
fcrent from acting one show, re-
hearsing a second and reading
third which most performers in
summer stock must do.
Here at the Garrett County
Playhouse we have such a group of
actors turning out commcndable
job week after week in a manner
of which they may be proud. Con
CALCULATIONS are definitely in order
for the group assembled at Deep

turb my equilibrium when some of
the phonies on TV attempt to dis
parage the young actors in the
straw hats"
The charade being presented this
week at the Blue Barn on Deep
Greek Lake is "Oh. Men, Oh,
Women" by Edward Chodorov
This play was quite successful in
its New York run. This is the re-
counting of the trials and tribula-
tons of the upper middle class in
America who can buy everything.
Because of this ability certain emo
tional disturbances become mani
fest. These latter fall into the realm
of psychoanalysis with the analyst
and his couch. The question arises
as to how much does the therapist
accomplish, as we'll as who or who
isn't unhitchcd. 1t provides for a
very droll evening in the theatre.
This weeks offering is really an
actors show since everyone partici-
pating seems to be having most
delightful time in the proceedings.
This results in rather we'll knit
cohesive offering all the way
around The first act is concerned
with two rather involved mono
logues. However the tempo picks
up and the second and third acts
are most entertaining.
Bob Mcknight at times is a bit
stiff as the analyst but overall quite
good. Neil Flanagan and Helene
Paige provide two excellent char
acterizations. Neil particularly as
the motion picture actor whose
knowledge of Ibsen somewhat con-
fuses the disciple of Sigmund
Freud Helene has one long pass
age in act one that is most effec-
tive. Mary Ann Craig and Phil
Jones contribute much to the over
all picture.
This week must be chalked up as
another good performance by Neil
Flanagan since Neil has excellent
timing. ability both to do comedy

week isn't for the younger children,

Tell" the story of Corliss Archer
and her boyfriend Dexter is pre-
sented as the last performance of
a season which in spite of many
pitfalls must be considered as one
of the best in many seasons.

After NAACP Protest

GARY. Ind. :, The NAACP scor-
ed a victory here this week when
the Board of Education decided
not to proceed with plans to build
a new high school in the midst of
the all-Negro section of town.
Negro citizens had opposed the
site on grounds that it did not
meet state standards and would
result in de facto segregation. The
Board will now seek another SITE
At the same time, it decided that
Negro students will no longer be
transferred from their overcrOwd-
ed school to an der-utiliZed white
school.
A public hearing is scheduled
for open discussion of this move.
Meanwhile, Rev. John E. Hunt

1872, ,456, Florida's Secretary of State
reported this week.
Significant gains were made in
cities and counties where local
units of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People conducted registration
drives. These include the cities of
Tampa, Jacksonville, Miami, Or
lando and West Palm Beach, and
Pinellas and Lee counties.
Negro registration in Pinellas
County, site of st. Petersburg and
Clearwater, was up 43 per cent,
from 1885 to 1000 NAACP Field
Secretary Robert w. Saunders re-
ports. In Tampa where the NAACP
also conducted an intensive drive
there was also a 43 per cent in
crease, from 11,277 to 1915. The
increase in Lee County was more
than so per cent, from 1,147 to
1921.
Other significant increases were
registered in Jacksonville = 23.-
513 to 1884; Miami = 22,356 to
80, SIG; Orlando = 1886 to a 1928;
and West Palm Beach = 6-977 to
1854.
The gains were made, Mr.

losses due to failure to vote in at
least one major election during a

ton has formulated plans to in
volve all its local units in intensi-
fled drives to add at least another
$4,000 Negro voters to the rolls by
