‘Cloudy With Showers’ Is
New Play At Nuangola
A new play, “Cloudy with Show-
ers’ appears to have gained the rep-
utation of being the most laugh-
provoking play produced in New
York in several seasons, and for
that reason has been selected by
the management of the Grove The-
atre players for presentation during
the week of August 12th to 17th.
“Cloudy with Showers” is from
the pen of Floyd Dell, a well-known
novelist, and Thomas Mitchell, a
well-known actor. It has to do with
a young college professor, recipient
of an international prize for his
treatise on the morals of the mod-
ern world, who is goaded by his
brightest pupil into taking her for
+ a sly auto ride only a few hours be-
fore he must exhibit himself at a
stately banquet and over the radio.
The professor with the girl go on
that ride. Through thunder and rain
they go, into a ditch, into a nearby
roadhouse for shelter, into a sleep-
ing apartment, equipped with ro-
mantic firelight, champagne
and also in one of those nests of
gang of men and State police which
frequently provide twists in plots
and throw thrills into comedy.

I get over there?” we asked. “Only
way is across them planks,” he said,
waving his corncob pipe at the slip-
pery lumber. So we breathed a
short prayer and inched slowly along
the disjointed trail of planks.
The bone was inside the shack,
and at first sight we had to admit
it was a mighty big bone. It stood
about three feet high and it had
knobs on both ends. The excava-
tors had dug it out of a bed of
quicksand about 30 feet under the
surface that afternoon. It certainly
looked like a mastodon bone, but
nobody had identified it yet, and
we didn’t want to write the story
and then have somebody prove next
day that it was just the hind leg
of a jackass so we told the watch-
man we were from the government
and not to let anybody see the bone
until we came back. :
——
THE PROBLEM then was to find
somebody who could identify a mas-
todon’s skeleton. We settled down
for a session in a pay station and
began calling all the librarians, bi-
ology teachers and learned scholars
we could think of and the trail led
finally to an instructor in a rep-
utable local institution of learning.
was taking it on the lam for the an-
nual senior ball. He would be glad
to come over the next day, he said.
We don’t recall now what argu-
ment it was we used to lure him
away from his social duty to come
over and identify our mastodon’s
leg immediately. We can only re-
member the sinking feeling we had
when he stepped out of his car at-
tired in spotless white flannels. We
closed our eyes in horror at the
thought of him crossing the muddy
flat to the watchman’s sanctuary.
He was a little frigid because we'd
yanked him away from the ball, but
quite civilized and we explained,
with a forced laugh, that the rickety
planks were really a lot safer than
they looked. He peered at them
dubiously over his glasses and then,
before he could flee, we pushed off,
waving to him to follow.
We were half-way across and go-
ing quite well when we heard a
grunt, followed by a sucking noise
and an emphatic expression of peda-
gogic wrath behind us, and when we
turned it was to see our professor
pulling one white-clad leg out of
the soupy mud. He had, it seemed,
slipped.
“No use stopping now,” we said,
and hurried across the remaining
planks, well out of reach of the
muddy professor.
When he saw the big bone his
eyes lit up and he forgot about his
ruined flannels. He was sure it was
a mastodon thigh bone, about 250,-
000 years old, and probably wash-
ed down from New York State in
quicksand. Fortunately, he said,
there was an eminent archeologist
speaking at a city hotel that very
evening and he could confirm the
identification if we were still skep-
tical.
We thanked the professor and he
left and we told the watchman we
had arranged to borrow the bone to
We got him to the phone just as he!

take a picture of it. It made quite
a good-siden burden, and people
turned to watch us, all the way
around Public Square and as we
walked through the lobby of the
hotel.
“Check this while we go in here
and see a fellow,” we told the girl
at the cloakroom, depositing the
three-foot bone on top of a natty
fedora. “Cheez!” she said, her eyes
popping. “Whatizit ?”
“Just something for my dog!” we
said, and went in and got the arch-
eologist, who not only agreed that it
was a mastodon’s leg bone but tried
to coax it away from us. So we car-
ried it back to the news room and
stood it up beside the desk while
we wrote the story.
When we went home at midnight
we entrusted the bone to a friend |
who, we heard later, lost it playing
blackjack with the printers in the
women’s rest room about dawn. It |
didn’t matter, anyway, because;
when we came to work the next af-
ternoon they told us the P. P. and L.
had sent for the bone and raised
cane with the reporter who'd stolen
it.
For a while the light con.
had it in the window and a few]
people stopped to look at it and af-
ter that, we heard, they gave it to
Wyoming Historical and Geological
Society. Then we lost track of it.
It was a mighty fine mastodon'‘s leg,
though, and after all the trouble we
took we ‘thought the least they
could do would be to let us keep it.

Kozemchak Produces
Fine Raspberry Crop
One of the finest crops of red
raspberries harvested this year in
this vicinity was that of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture inspected ber-
ries on the Kozemchak farm, Over-
brook Avenue, Dallas. The crop
was abundant, exceeding all expec-
tations and the berries were large
and luscious. Early Thursday morn-
ing Mr: Kozemchak called The Post
to say that the entire crop had been
sold and asked that his classified
ad in The Post be discontinued. “I
was amazed,” he said “with the re-
sults from that ad. Dozens of peo-
ple mentioned it. It was the only
advertising we used in any news-
paper and it kept a steady flow of
customers coming to our place for
berries every day.”

Jim Oliver Host
At Hudson Party
1940 Models Shown At
Country Club Meeting
One hundred Hudson dealers and
their representatives from 15 North-
eastern and Central Pennsylvania
counties were the guests of James
R. Oliver, Hudson distributor, at a
preview showing of 1941 Hudson
cars at Irem Temple Country Club
on Wednesday. Factory representa-
tives, carrier representatives and
others in allied trades were also the
guests of Mr. Oliver.
The new Symphonic Styled Hud-
sons, first of the automobile indus-
try’s new model offerings, began
rolling off the assembly line several
weeks ago at the company’s huge
Detroit plant, after many months
of preparation involving important
chassis changes and an advanced
style design. Public announcement
of the cars will follow in a few
weeks.
The dealers were enthusiastic over
the striking new body styling and
longer wheelbases and the extensive
list of improvements and refine-
ments offered in the three new 1941
Hudson models Spotlighted was
the advanced development in color
harmony appearing for the first time
in a full line of cars in standard
production.
The new development termed
“Symphonic Styling” offers a wide
selection of interior color combina-
tions which harmonize with exterior
colors. Carpets, floor mats, interior
trim and upholstering harmonize
with exterior colors and tones. For
example, a green Hudson exterior
is matched with an entire green en-
semble of interior trim. This is en-
tirely new in motor cars and is an
application of the same harmonious
color trends observed in well-
planned home furnishings and en-
sembles in women’s apparel.
Eight of these new Hudsons, out
of 20 recently received by Mr. Oliver,
were on display in the Country Club
pavilion where lectures on factory
production, merchandising, dealer
organization and other kindred sub-
jects were given by factory experts
after an address of welcome and
introductory remarks by Mr. Oliver.

Plane Will Stunt
Over Trap Shoot
Overbrook Club Invites
Public To Event Sunday
Herbert Hardy, president of Wyo-
bing Valley Flying Club, will give
a flying demonstration above the
Kozemchak Farm on Sunday after-
noon at 1 during the last summer
trap shoot of the Overbrook Gun
Club,
The public is invited to attend
the shoot and make an all day af-
fair of it. There will be a conven-
ient spot on the farm, away from
the shooting grounds, set aside ‘for
those who take picnic lunches and
there will be no charge for parking.
Experienced shooters and begin-
ners are invited. Everyone who
wishes to learn to handle a gun
safely and learn to shoot will have
a man to coach him. Women also
There will be extra
guns for those who have none.
Shells will be furnished on the
grounds.
A fox gun will be awarded and
three prizes will be given to the
highest scorers in each class. The
shooting grounds are on the Fern-
brook-Huntsville Road.
discussed the 1941 models in detail.
Formal features of the meeting
were followed by a dinner at the
club, informal dealer get-to-gether
and sports and entertainment in the
afternoon on the club grounds. Les-
lie Warhola’s orchestra furnished
music.
In discussing the 1941 Hudson,
Mr. Oliver said, “For honest value
there isn’t a car on the market that
can touch the Hudson in its three
price classes. All I ask is compari-
son. Let any man take one of
these Hudsons and drive it for a day
instead of his own car, over the
same routes he drives daily, and I'll
wager he'll choose the Hudson for
his next automobile.” .
Proof of dealer acceptance came
Wednesday night when men from
Stroudsburg, Bloomsburg, Williams-
port, Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Potts-
ville and distant points drove home
in 1941 models. Only one of the
many 1941 models remained for dis-
play in Dallas at the conclusion of
Revived Army
Has SmallUnits,
Geared For Speed
(Continued from Page 1)
The job facing the nation today
is to provide adequate manufactur-
ing facilities to supply those weap-
ons for the existing divisions as
rapidly as possible and to deliver
them to the new divisions as fast as
they are ready for them. That calls
for special steels for the gun bar-
rels. It calls for machines that can
convert that steel into weapons.
And it calls for men who can oper-
ate those machines. The Army
knows its needs. It is the job of
the National Defense Advisory Com-
mission to find out how to fulfill
those requirements without crowd-
ing and confusion. ‘But that list
above is only what a modern infan-
try regiment can more or less carry
over its shoulder in the way of
weapons,
There are also fast modern tanks
which carry substantial armor and
machine guns. We will have small
ones capable of galloping over good
roads at thirty-six miles an hour,
and moving over rough ground at
a good clip. And there will be big
ones capable of slugging it out with
anything that comes along. Under
new contracts, these steel turtles are
being turned out in the middle west.
The steel industry has already told
the Advisory Commission that prep-
arations are under way to increase
production of light armor plate to
meet requirements.
Ammunition Needs
That more or less settles the wea-
pons that the infantry has handy.
But these modern, agile, war ma-
chines can dispose of a surprising
quantity of ammunition in a short
time. For example, the M1 rifle,
with a good man on the trigger end
can fire over 130 shots in five min-
utes. A machine gun can loose
about 2,500 shots in the direction of
the enemy in the same time. So it
is evident that there will have to be
considerable expansion of the na-
tion's ammunition facilities in a
hurry. And, this in turn, will call
for more powder plants, and step-
ping up of production of brass shell
cases, and steel-jackets. All this
has to be done without creating
bottle-necks, without waste motion.
(An article on the cavalry
will be published next week.)
the showing. Seventy-five more 1941
Hudsons are expected this week by
the Oliver organization. These will
be distributed to dealers through-
out the territory to be followed im-
mediately by more which will soon
be in the hands of users.
“Hudson is the first manufacturer
to be out with 1941 cars,” Mr. Oli-
ver says, ‘because sales during the
past year far exceeded anything the
company had planned on. Before
the 1940 season was well along
Hudson executives were aware that
their stocks of materials for the
1940 car would be exhausted early
and plans and work on the 1941
model started immediately.”
