GO. P. Tries
For Primary
Slate oduy
BY the Associated Press


The Maryland Republican
State Central Committee meets
today in a last-ditch effort to
form a slate of candidates for
the May is primary.
It expects to determine the
status Of Senator Butler, for
mer Gov. Theodore r. Nickel
din, Maj. Gen. William c. Pur-
nell and others.
D. Eldred Rinehart, central
committee chairman, reported
last night that Senator Butler
might seek a third term, despite
his announcement in December
that he would not run again.
Mr.. McKeldin, Governor from
1879, has been mentioned as
a possible candidate either for
Governor or the office Senator
Butler said he was vacating.
Mr.. Purnell, vice president
and general counsel of the
Western Maryland Railway,
could be the committees choice
for Governor if Mr.. McKeldin
doesn't try to get the job back.
Mr.. Rinehart said Senator
Butler showed interest Tues
day in re-enter;ng the race for
Senator If Mr.. Purnell ran for
Governor.
Mr.. Purnell said he could
think of no circumstances I'M
der which I would be a candi-
date" but he left the door open.
IF I were a candidate" he
said, Senator Buffers re-entry
would make it very attractive"
Senator Butler and Mr.. Pur-
nell, close friends over the
years, are identified with the
conservative wing of the party
in Maryland. Mr.. McKeldin is
leader of the liberals.

night club act that scored in
Las Vegas, New York and
Hollywood.
Producers told her she was
a natural comedienne-but
only at parties. The next
day in their offices, they
cast her always in the tragic
roles.
She gave up her agent,
concentrated on her hus-
bands career and her family
and, except for occasional
appearances, retired.
Then Producer Jack Rose
and Director Danny Mann,
old friends, were looking for
someone to play a wacky

At a party one night, the
two decided that Mango was
the perfect casting. Says
Rose:

Mango was one of the first
stars of recent times to use
a single name. When she
tried it Fabian wasn't born
and Liberace didn't even own

the very life of Sir Thomas
in his classic duel with Henry
VIII over the sancity of
marriage.
Man Named More
Church and state are only
remotely involved in this con-
flict. Its principals instead
are a man named More and
his family. on one side and,
on the other, a petulant,
egocentric king, and cour-
tiers who are constituencies
and cunning.
AS Bolt conceives More,
and Scofield plays him, it is
the glory of the plays hero
that he is merely man. Not
superman; not shining white
in a bleak-to-black world.
The commonplaceness of his
relations with his wife and
daughter, and the latter's
suitors, is modified only by
a wit and understanding
that refresh its basic
warmth.
More differs from the
standard father only In that
he is more intellectually
stimulating, a virture Of
which he shows no aware
ness.
Among the politicians, in
Guiding the king, he claims
no greater wisdom than they.
He has grave doubts Of the
rightness Of the Judgment he
must eventually make. In
deed, he can and does give
way to merely human an
noyance that a matter of
such challenge to his con-
science ever arose. Why
couldn't Henry have been
reconciled to not having a
son, as was More himself?

Or. since Henry must be so
headstrong, why not concur

clans easy sense of expedi-
ency as does Thomas Crom-

escent. but practical, figure

HOLLYWOOD. The an
nouncement of Grace Kelly's
return to films caused many
a wiseacre to nod knowingly.
"They all come back" was
the studied analysis.
Many local observers offered
a spurious reason for the
Kelly return: boredom at the
palace; somebody broke the
bank at Monte Carlo.
Clifton Webb probably
came closest to the real rea-
son when he said: Il think
what brought her back was
that hidden urge in everyone
who has ever smelled grease

back at least one more time"

Fred Astaire has long re-
GREETED that he ever said he
was retiring after Blue

and he jumped at the chance
to replace an ailing Gene

worked in vaudeville and
radio, in television, motion
pictures and on Broadway.
He's done impersonations,
comedy, and serious drama.
What's next for Art?

Does he play as well as
Harry Truman?

touch than Mr.. Truman, but

No Health Kick

room at the Biltmore The
alter, where he stars in Take
Her, She's Nine" a family
type comedy brought to per-
lection by Director George
Abbott. Art was replenishing
his strength with a cup of
vanilla yogurt. Scattered
about the dressing table were
other sources of quick energy
"a jar Of honey, hard candy,
cookies, and a sugared
doughnut.

this the counsel of even that
old firebrand moralist, the
Duke of Norfolk?
In the swift swirl Of the
plays movement, Actor SEQ
fields More learns the price
of being a minority of one.
Not the mere price Of ones
life but the larger one of
its effect upon the family he
must so sadly leave behind
him.
All this is related so COM
pactly, its inwardness so ar
restingly externalized, in "a
Man for All Seasons" This
is the genius of Bolts writing
but more visibly as the
drama always goes-in Mr..
Scofield's acting. AS hero,
Sir Thomas is a far more
difficult character to act than
Beckett, the latter confronted
by a similar dilemma Of
loyalty to his monarch.
First Rate Support
Yet as fully as the actors
art makes it possible, Mr..
Scofield is the perfect man
for "A Man for All Seasons"
He draws rich support of
a number of others in the
cast; from Thomas Gomez
as the clustering, threaten
ing, guileful Cromwell; Al
bert Decker as the brusque,
brave old Duke of Norfolk,
More's staunchest ally; Olga
Berlin as the keenly intelll-
gent More daughter, Marga-
ret; Keith Baxter as the
restless, reckless Henry VIII;
and most humorously from
George Rose as the common
Man-narrator servant-jailer
of Bolts invention.
To Motley is due the credit
for the plays useful, unob-
trusive settings and it's regal
costumes; and to Paul Nor
rison that for it's remarkably
effective lighting.
"A Man for All Seasons"
is the seasons man not to
miss when one is in New
York.

The musical, which arrived

Of the usual precautions de-

Instead Of a hero, the main
character is a heel. The plot
is tough and dramatic, in

on imaginative staging, smart
teamwork and a substantial
story. The combination gene
rates engrossing, solid enter

The score and lyrics, laced
by Harold Rome with Jewish

exceptional effectiveness.

Drama Critic OF The Star

NEW YORK-Robert Bolt
provides an encouraging, if
limited, answer to the ques-
ton: Where are our next
truly gifted playwrights COM
ing from?
Mr.. Bolt is from England.
There must be others like him
else where. For the time
being, he supplies a vivid
CLEAN of hope that this is
true.
Mr.. Bolt Is author of the
seasons best drama. "A man
for All Seasons" It towers
above the work of Broad
ways other playwrights. In
its exploration of the con-
science of a man, Sir Thomas
More, Lord Chancellor of
England in 1853, it fascinates
capacity audiences nightly
at New York's ANITA thea
ter. Before these, 1t unfolds
the moral that 1t is prefer
able to die like a man than
to live like a Kings lackey.
"A Man for All Seasons"
is written with imagination
by a dramatist with a gen.
uine faith in the intelligence
and imagination Of theater-
goerS. It presents the merest
shadow of a plot. Its form
is unconventional. Neither
matters. For its sense of
life, Mr.. Bolts play draws
upon a great life which is
brilliantly, deeply, and NOV
ingly realized in a stunning
performance by Paul SEQ
field.
But Not Solemn
Rare portraiture Scofield's
is, a mesmerically intimate
glimpse into the soul of an
intelligent, sensitive, witty,
worldly wise but not worldly
committed politician. 1t pro-
videS the point Of fusion
between time past and time
perilously present in a play
that is remarkably lacking
in solemnity for all the seri-
business of its theme.
Mr.. Bolt has written "a
Man for All Seasons" to be
enjoyed, as well as to be
exalted by. This, 1t will not
go without saying, is an
inspiring and delightful ex-
perience.
A single remarkably fluid
set suffices for Noel Will
mans adroit staging of Bolts
play and a single actor as
the intimate narrator-link
between the here-and-now
spectator and the there-and-
then spectacle. It is a pos
itively cozy relationship that
is thus established, one that
draws the theatergoer into
