D'you know the staff out there misses a number of liv- ely bits which come into the office through the mails, and which you folk just love to read? Of course they mumble at us for mentioning such a thing, and say there just isn't space in the Snoozin' Record for all that stuff. Well, I like that! So here's a bit about the big goings-on in Stratford, which we found in the Ingersoll Gadget, in Miss Irma Hutt's column, arid we know you'll enjoy it. * * "Monday night, the official opening of the second annual Shakespearean Festival had all the excitement and glamour that such an occasion should have. We got there early to see what we could see — and so did almost everyone else. The air practically crackled and everything built up to that moment when the bells of Stratford churches pealed, the trumpets sounded and the Gover- nor General and his party arrived. Second later the lights went down and then up on "Measure ,for Measure," ,h . . "No drama critic, nor student of the Bard, we must admit there were times that it was a bit heavy going for us, but the miracle of the poetry' was there and the beauty of the costumes, the intri- cacy of the staging and the perfect blending of fine direction and act- ing talent. h a a "The visiting star, James Mason, was naturally the fo- cus of attention, but due no doubt to the relative small- ness of his part, plus its som- bre and unappealling chacter, was soon left in the shadow, particularly of the wonderful little Canadian actress Fran- ces Hyland. 'Tuesday night was. as different as you can imagine and while we agree with a remark we over- heard, "Shakespeare would have loved it," we also think Mr. S. would have been one of the (most surprised men in the world, had he seen what Tyrone Guthrie did with "The Taming of the Shrew", It is a comedy—but we were not prepared for such rollicking, close - to -slapstick - - downright funny, yet always witty and clever, com- edy. We are no fit critic. We loved it all. i h R "But there's more than the play on first nights. ' There are the famous personages, the fun of trying to recognize them. The beautiful gowns, furs and jewels of the ladies (you should have seen ars. James Mason's fur jacket) .. . d 'P ' . l "The men rated a look too, especially those in white dinner jackets . the thrill of being Canadian at this particularly Can:, adian undertaking - - and when the Right Honourable Vincent Massey arrived, to note the in- stant respectful silence, perfect tribute by 2,000 people to the Queen's Canadian representative to see that Mr, Massey jumped as high and laughed as hard as anyone when the cannon boomed ... the fantastic contrast of the blare of the ancient trum- pets and the roar of war planes in a fly-past . . to watch the fam- ed Robertson Davies whom we had watched at another play giving an exhibition of the most utter bore- dom we have ever witnessed, roar- ing with laughter at the antics of a certain talented member of the. family (advt. unpaid) . to spot such notables as Mr. and Mrs. Donald Gordon, Lorne Green, Margaret Hyndman, David Croll, and so on and on Our im- pressions haven't run out but time and space have . . . Don't miss it, will you?" Big -Mortar Shell Enearthed Near Metz in France An 81mni German mortar shell "in perfect preservation" was un- earthed last week, less than 100 feet from the main building of the RCAF's 1 Air Division Headquart- ers near Metz, France, The shell, still covered with white enamel add with its fuse untouched, was found by French labourers when they were digging a drainage trench within speaking distance of the headquarters build- ing, The unit armament officer im- mediately called in the French Service de Deminage", or bomb disposal squad, which,is still ac- tive in the Metz area.
