tom with amiable, talented
Shady Grove visiting stars,
David and the drama desk oc-
cupants had a cultural conven-
ton at Paul Young'S.
AS conventions go. this one
was small but rather more ver-
bally nimble than most minia-
ture culture sessions.
1t was Mr.. Donnelly Of the
News, anything but a plain,
blunt man, who introduced the
major subject: Was the thea
ter still dying or already dead?
David, speaking as a survivor
of the theater, If it is dead,
said he really didn't think 1t
was. Oh, it's not in the best of
health, hasn't been since the
days Of Sophocles, but it Is
Keeling along. He has reason
| to believe this more than most,
having Just played in some Ill
cities in Carnival"
David, who thinks the theater
could stand a large dose Of
excitement, say like a few more
new stars or more at-work older
ones, also feels that it's dispers-
ing. Out of the faded East, he
has found and been delighted by
new theaters in Dallas, Milwau-
kee, Omaha, Minneapolis, and
other artistically lively cities.
David, Of Yale, the Curtis
Institute and other places which
encourage mental and cultural
development, finds himself a
steadily employed singer or
actor, or a combination Of the
two. He likes work for the
money but for other reasons,
too, among them growing pro-
fessionally.
He would like a straight play
next, keeping up his singing on
the side, but he has no prospects
that could be called immediate.
The consequences of this is
that he may travel for next
season. There is being put to-
gether a "Camelot" company
for Australia and he is some
thing Of a marked fellow for
Launcelot, that knight Of nights
created on Broadway by another
baritone, Robert Goulet.
Yes. indeed, David would like
to spend a season in Australia
and "Camelot."
He's very pleased to have
spent so much time in "Carni-
val" but. boy, is it hot in that
box from which he operates
these marionettes, especially
when the box is set up on a
tent stagel

Pappy spencer was q noun
particular one, which he named
Spencer's mountain, and on
which he started raising cattle,
crops, and more Spencers.
There was nothing special
about the cattle and crops, but
those Spencers. Damndest
people you ever see outside Of
a folk song. Or a movie like
the one called "Spencer's
Mountain" at the Metropolitan
theater.
Pappy Spencer, the founder
of the family kingdom, is a sort
of emeritus king, the actual
rule having descended to mid
dle-aged Clay Henry Fonda,
of all actors). That Clay is q
one, earthly, almost uneducated,
and always slappin' his wife
Livvy (Maureen O'Hara) on
her well-preserved backside.
He's a cussin' man. too, and a
hard payday drinker, and a
firm disbeliever in hypocritical
Christianity, apparently the
only kind he's ever seen.
Despite these faults, there's
a lot Of good in Clay Spencer,
He's eagle-proud of his personal
population explosion, a yardful
of little Spencers, and especially
of his Oldest son, Clayboy
rhymes with playboy). No vul-
garian like his pop, this Clay
boy. He's a high school honor
student with college ambitions
and. strange for a Spencer, a
kind Of shy reaction to the adj
vances Of q neighboring blond
name of ClariS.
Claris (Mimsy Farmer. If you
can believe that has been to
finishing school and she's an
xious to get started, with Clay
boy, on what she's learned
there; especially in a course
that must have been C allie d

There's appallingly a lot more

Clayboy's unSpencerlike reserve
toward girls, or his paws PAWN

rather, that it was produced,

brother find themselves now in the
position Of opposing statements
which no one has ever made.
A close perusal Of the recon-
mendations sent to the President
by the Civil Rights Commission
reveals that the Commission fol-
lowed closely the suggestions of
the Presidents brother, and even
stipulated the areas in which the
President can and does have the
authority to act.
The Commission listed eight
governmental areas in which funds
are given to states for govern
mental programs in which, one
way or the other - if the Admin
istration chose discrimination
can be controlled or eliminated be-
cause of the Presidents own edicts
in the areas Of equal opportunity
in government contracts, housing,
employment, etc.
The areas are: grant-in-aid pro-
grams; United States Corps of
Engineers construction contracts;
Military prime contracts; direct
civilian and military payrolls;
Area Redevelopment Loans and
grants; Small Business Loans; Ac-
CELEBRATED Public works projects,
and Federal Aviation Agency
grants.
The Commission went on to
show that in areas where the
President, himself, has outlawed
discrimination, his own agencies
have continued in the perpetuation
Of discrimination. To wit:
The Federal Aviation Agency ap-
proved spending 1880 for con-
struction Of jet airport in jack
son, Miss, with separate eating
and restroom facilities.
And that NASA (the National
Aeronautics and Space Agency Is
proceeding with plans to build a
$500 million moon rocket engine
test center in Pearl River and
Hancock Counties, Mississippi.
If the Presidents statements
are to be taken at face value 1.-THE
NASA project is okayed because
it is in the national interest")
he on the one hand proclaims his
passion for freedom and equality
for everyone - and on the other
hand disclaims this very freedom
"in the national interest"
The Civil Rights Commission has
correctly assailed this incongruous
duality, and it is to be hoped the
President will valiantly fight for
its survival.
