One play won him first place in the Samuel French Con test, the National Collegiate Play Writing Guild, and its publication is soon to be announced in the Players Magazine.

For it is necessary that the audi- , ence have contact with the actors in order for the play to come alive.” On the subject of “method act ing”, Mr. Carver replied, “Most people do not know what ‘method acting’ really is.

It is suf-, ficient and apt for our age and time, but there is nothing I hate worse than a mumbler on stage.” The conversation i m m e d i a tely switched to his speech class. “Dia lect of Salem girls was the thickest . . ., but after a few days, I found myself speaking in the same dialect.
