I t t l, 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." i l MT. VERNON CHURCH NOTES l PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Rev. Joseph W.

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.
