Letter Brings Thanks
To Local Red Cross
.Mrs. \Vells Peck of Cedar Rapids.
Secretary of the Linn county chap—
ter of the American Red Cross has
expressed the following apprecia-
tion in a letter to the Mount, Vernon
chapter this week. “February 1.
was the date for the September
quota to he completed. We very
nearly filled the required number
of garments. As we accumulate
data and numbers and count, sweat-
ers, not by dozens but actually by
hundreds, we realize what an im-
portant part you have had in mak—
ing this possible. It is gratifying
to the local Red Cross as it must
be to you to know that the untold
suffering in England is being eased
at least a bit by the comfort of
these garments which you have
made.
"We shall need your further help
and cooperation in producing an
equal number. Our present con-
cern is that the local chapter, the
office staff. Mrs. Shive and Mrs.
Lavell wish to express to you theiri
own appreciation of your splendid?
cooperation."

Cornell Play Gets
Praise From Downing
A Veteran Actor
Many very inspiring communi-
cations have come to the Cornell
Little Theatre concerning the pro-
duction of Shakespeare's “Hamlet.”
Professor Karl Andrist, who has
seen 20 Hamlets, pronounces the
Cornell interpretation the best of
all, while Hugh Roberts, a mem-
ber of the Iowa University staff,
an Australian who was a. Rhodes
scholar at Oxford, called this “the
greatest Hamlet I've ever seen"—
and he's seen them in England,
Australia and the United States.
One of the most encouraging of
the many leters and telegrams of
congratulation which were received
by Jim Daly and the Little Theatre
was the letter from Robert Down-
ing, prominent actor who is now
a member of the troup of Alfred
Lunt and Lynn Fontanne. Mr.
Downing complimented the John-
sons on their direction of the play.
and further wrote: “Over a. year
ago we lowered the final curtain
on the Lunt‘a ‘Tamlng of the
Shrew.’ For me that. had always
been the quintessence of Shake-
spearean art. I did not expect to
be stirred again by words from
Avon until the magnificent Lunts
took up Will’s work again. But at
your ‘l-Iamlet' I was stirred 'be-
cause here, so far removed from
actual contact with what the mis—
informed still call the ‘heart' of the
theatre. you are pumping fresh
blood into the theatre'c arteries—-
and if I'm any judge. it’s a healthy
transfusion." Mr. Downing thank-
ed them all for “an exciting and
inspiring evening in the Theatre."
Many came from out of town for
the production, helping to break
all box office records for the Cor-
nell theatre. About a hundred
came from Iowa City, and more
than that from Cedar Rapids. There
were 22 from Amana, 20 from La-
Port City, 25 from Anamooa and
15 from Mai-ion. \Many high schools
sent students in smaller groups.
Hazel Strayer, director of the
theatre at Iowa State Teachers col-
lege. brought several members from
her "Hamlet" cast.
Bob Hartung bronght 18 of his
speech and dramatic students from
Simpson for the production, and all
were entertained in the Harry
Hartun-g home here following the
play Saturday night.

more than generous in contributing
a solo on Sunday mornings, when
he is visiting in Mechanicsville, and
both the pastor and congregation
appreciate it most sincerely.
Betty Thomas came home from
Coe college for a week end visit
with her parents. Her mother ac-
companied her to Cedar Rapids
