The sixth annual Theatre Club tournament, under the auspices of the Dorset Players, will be held in Dorset Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 11, 12 and 13. Among the competing groups this year are the Plainfield Players of Plamfield, the Dramatic Club of St.

Albans, the Lochlea Players Wells, the Dorset Players of Dorset, the Montpeher Players of Montpeher and the Theatre Club of Burlington. In the past five years, the Burlington Theatre Club has won the cup twice and tied once with the Dorset Players. The Plamfield Players, also, have won the cup twice. Should either organization win the cup this year, it will be retired from the competition. The Theatre Club of Burlington is tne present holder of the cup.

An interesting angle in the coming tournament is the fact that the Dramatic Club of St. Albans and the Theatre Club of Burlington are both to present one-act plays by the same author, Ruth Giorloss. The St. Albans group will present "Highness" and the Burlington Theatre Club "The Way Out." The judges have not as yet been announced. Last year the judges were Alexander Woollcott.

(JP) Pope Pius, who has entered his seventy-ninth year, has just made the important decision to conserve his strength in every way passible, in order to give himself more years of usefulness.

(TV-More than 100 persons were homeless today as the result of the vengeance of a seamstress, who started a file that destroyed two community dwellings. A fight between the seamstress, Maria Alcxeyeva, 35 years old, and her neighbor, Ivan Citney-koff, a locksmith, was the cause.

A year ago a court awarded to Citneykoff's family half of Miss Alexeyeva's room after a dispute over living quarters. The seamstress then threw acid over the faces of the locksmith's wife and daughter. She was sentenced to a year's imprisonment at hard labor. After completing her term she set fire to the dwelling. The blaze destroyed two buildings housing thirty-three families.

7 RUSH COAL BILL SAYS F. D. WASHINGTON, July 7. In the first overt move to test the Supreme Court's "horse and buggy" definition of interstate commerce, President Roosevelt has asked a House subcommittee to overlook constitutional doubts and rush the GurTey-Snyder coal control bill to early enactment, presumably to avoid a strike in the soft coal fields scheduled for July 31. In a letter to Representative Sam B.

Hill of Washington, chairman of the ways and means subcommittee investigating the controversial measure, Mr. Roosevelt stated frankly that no one could vouch for its validity, but added: "I hope your committee will not permit doubts as to the constitutionality, however reasonable, to block the suggested legislation." new i "lrZer Md-g Ml laytas are, v. ce bat I Clearance of Our Better Models regularly lo $10.50 4t 4 CREPES I ICE PASTELS Your Choice oR.
