 Due to the up-grading and re-grouping of many of our party lines, it will be necess- ary for us to visit many loca- tlons to change services n d ringers" Clements said. This will take several days to com plete, and during this time a few party line users will be without inward service (others can not reach them by dialing their number, although h e y will be able to make calls from their phone). We are making every effort to keep this time to a minimum, and we plan to have all customers using their new numbers by Wednesday. Aug. 25."
 This inconvenience will af feet only a small per cent of party line subscribers, h e manager stated, for the major ity of phones will be cut over a few minutes after 10 pm. on Sept. 23. MTA members W h o have difficulties are asked to dial the operator, who will as- sist them in reaching h e ir party.
 There will no doubt be some inconvenience and diff culty for a day or two," Clem- ents concluded. Every effort will be made to keep this to minimum, however. If you have any question either be- fore or after the changeover, please call our office"

Unless attorneys are success ful in a last-ditch try for a hearing on the Matanuska-S -Su- sitna petitioners appeal, vot- CTS of District : and 8 will go to the polls on Tuesday, Sept. IT, to accept or reject the pro- posed Captain Cook borough.
 Burton Bliss, who is working with Wendell Kay on the Mat anuska-Susitna petitioners ap- peal from the decision of the Local Boundary Commission in enlarging the boundaries of the proposed Captain Cook borough to include District ', said this morning that they have as yet been unsuccessful in getting spot on the crowd ed Superior Court docket to present their arguments for the petitioners. However, there is a possibility that Judge GiI- bert may hear the case tomor- row afternon. Judge Moody has disqualified himself from hearing the case. Fitzgerald is on vacation, and Davis has re- fused to hear the case, saying that he Is too busy.
 Tie Boundary Commission made the boundary changes af- ter hearings Oil the original Captain Cook petition were held in Anchorage, Palmer and Wasilla. A petition submitted by the Matanuska-Susitna peti- tioners for a borough roughly approximating District ' was never processed by the Local Affairs agency or considered by the Boundary Commission. The petitioners have alleged l that bot. these actions are con- trary to the borough law.
 Matanuska Susitna propo. nents argue that the large bor- ough set-up will deprive them of an opportunity for local gov ernment. will give them insuf- fieient representation on the borough assembly and school board and will make it difficult for local residents to take an active part in borough govern ment because of the distances and travel time involved in at tending borough meetings; that outcome of the Sept. F election will be decided by the Anchor age vote; and that the election, if it takes place, will be an illegal one.
 Proponents of the big bor- ough aver that the election is the only way their wishes can be made know that the Dis trict : area is not yet capable of governing itself; that is ec- chemically, socially, and poli- tleally inter-@elated with An chorage. and that the big bor- ough will have 2 broader tax base.

This is another step forward in MEAS goal to apply the REA principle of area cover age to the Matanuska and Sus- itna valleys"

known the delight Of royalties
yet are suddenly committed tC
a philosophy that Broadway is
not everything. Or everywhere
Accordingly, they have band
ed together to give one play by
an established dramatist every
year to community theaters-
resident professional, eStab-
ished university, etc.-for first
production.
The size Of the playwrights in
volved is impressive, among
them Arthur Miller, S. N. Behr-
man, Lillian Hellman, William
Inge, Robert E. Lee and Jer-
ONE Lawrence "a writing
team, Robert Anderson, Elmer
Rice, and Paddy Chayevsky.
Gifts Of the gods, the works Of
these should look like to in
spired and qualified regional
theaters such as Arena Stage
and 0lney summer theater in
this region.
To set the program in motion,
there will be a meeting of rep

Theater and Academy and the
American Educational Theater
Association next week. II will
be at Columbus, o., at Ohio
State University, which will be
headquarters of the operative
staff Of the project.
4 One Of the preliminary steps
at last, will be the choice of
the playwright to be the pioneer
contributor to the program.
Not all is of the charter
member dramatiSts have PLAYS
ready. Nine do. One of these
will be the pioneer.
s. -
BARGAIN PRICE TAG: Actual
~ the pioneers play will only
approximately be ''given" to
the project. The author whose
work must be one with an
idea" will be guaranteed $1O,-
900 for the years availability of
the play selected. In terms of a
play that might be an instant
Broadway hit, $4,000 means it
/ is a virtual give-away. This,
however, is merely for a
year. At its end, the full
rights revert to the playwright
who can submit it to any produ-
Ger for Broadway production
and, after its run there, a road
tour If there are regions left
where it will not be oldish hat.
The playwrights, all of them
secure enough to speak out as
| if Broadway were merely anoth-
er street, and New York anoth-
er town, have so spoken. They
see the new project not merely
as a step in the direction of de-
centralized drama but as offer
ing "a new freedom Of express
sion, one not possible in the
present Broadway theater."
= =
THE PROSPECT: This semi
diligent corner-even on a Fri
day-took the subject up with
Mrs. Zelda Fichandler, prOduc-
ing director of Arena Stage.
Mrs. Fichandler turned out to
have an open mind on the whole
matter.
"It's an interesting project"
she says, land should be useful
to both regional theaters and
playwrights who would like to
see their works presented to a
new KIND OF prl0r-t0-Broad Way
audience. Moreover, it will
; make good plays available to
ltheaters which certainly car
use them.
Il shall be curious about Ger.
, tain aspects of the program as
it works out. A new play, as
play, can raise questions in op.
creations such as ours. A re-
gional theater's program must
have balance. Where will the
American Playwrights Thea
ter's plays fit into this require
ment? Again, how does it relate
to community tastes? | certain
ly don't know, won't know, the
answer to these and other ques-
tons.
Nevertheless, it is a pro-
gram with definite merit and
naturally we here will watch its

Soxon's Custer Asked
By Missouri Banker

Bradford Brett, immediate
past president of the indie
pendent Bankers Association,
revealed today that he has
called upon President Kennedy
to remove James ]. Saxon as
controller of the currency.
Mr.. Brett made public a let
ter that he had written to the
President April l, charging
that Mr.. Saxon is "intemperate
and a man of poor judgment"
Following up criticisms Mr..
Brett made in his March 26
keynote speech at the bankers
convention in New orleans, he
wrote that Mr.. Saxon has
stirred bitter controversy and
confusion" In the American
banking system.
The controller seems pos
Sessed," Mr.. Brett added, to
revolutionize American bank
ing into what he thinks it
should be-"
To achieve this objective, he
said, Mr.. Saxon has "again and
again shown outright contempt
for the banking laws"
In his New Orleans address,
Mr.. Brett told the bankers that
lit is an ironic tragedy to find
the great American banking
system, on its Tooth anniver-
Sary, under attack by self
styled experts Of little knowl-
edge"
At his home in Mexico, Mo,
where he is president of the
First National Bank, Mr.. Brett
said he had urged the associa-
tons membership to undertake
a new militancy" to safeguard
principles of free enterprise
and traditional independence
and to protect our cherished
freedom" from chipping away"
and constant meddling."
