This crow appears bent on improving the breed’s image.

By W. H. SCARBOROUGH
When summer stock came to
North Carolina, it didn't exact
ly scorch the grassroots. True
enough, enthusiastic amateurs
would throw themselves fearless
ly into the breach, but their lines
seemed too often to ricochet off
empty bleachers and uncom
prehending eardrums.
Summer stock, Tar Heel style,
has been stow to acquire the
glamor of an air-conditioned
barn in Bucks County, where va
cationing Broadway luminaries
run through the first draft of
next year’s hit as directed by
■Burgess Meredith. It still has
considerably more gloss to ac
quire before it is slaple diet
This is not to fault local sum
mer taeatre, or some of the very
ambit.ous efforts now being made
in Durham by the Triangle Sum
mer Theatre. Its players have
been pounding the boards all
summer with ambition, if not al
ways with inspiration and fi
nesse. A!! fold they hav# made
a good beginning for legitimate
hot-weather theatre in this area.
It is almost with regret that
we have to point out a couple of
holidays (stage jargon for im
perfectly painted scenery' in
their production of Gl’S's "Heart
break House.”
Those Shavian bugs acquaint
ed with the piece will remember
it as a normal blend of acid wit,
decressing asides, heartlessly
flailed Englishmen and overtones
of the coming theatre of the ab
surd. Those who are not will per
haps gather enough from the
Durham production to want to
read the play.
There is admittedly nothing fair
in judging all the parts of a play
in terms of its final effect, how
ever. But Shaw a la 1 1 i

pect of a stage adapta ic.i of a
p, G. Wodehouse novel, ersatz
Englishmen and all. The Shaw
acid cannot be strained through
cheesecloth with any salutary
effect on acid or fabric. Without
intending to, this appears to be
Art Os *Slipping 9
Might Be Revived
The lost art of “slipping,” or
making cuttings of a favorite
plant, can be revived through a
system perfected by a Mentor,
Ohio, horticulturist, according to
Changing Times, the Kilinger
Magazine.
An article in the current issue
of the magazine reports that
Lewis F. Lipp, horticulturist at
the Holden Arboretum, has per
fected a method of rooting cut
tings that will work “even for
the poor gawk who is all thumbs,
not one of them green.”
Basically, the method consists
of planting the cuttings in a
box, watering them, then putting
a tentlike plastic covering over
them to keep the moisture in.
The cuttings may he left in a
warm place all winter and by
. spring they will be rooted.
F.quipment includes a green
house flat —a shallow wooden
box measuring 12 x 18 inches or
16 x 22 inches, 4 inches dei n
filled with a mixture of 75 per
- cent German peat moss and 25
per cent granular Styrofoam
and covered with cheesecloth
supported by three heavy wire
hoops, bent to resemble the hoops
on a covered wagon. A sheet of
polyethylene plastic is used to
wrap the entire flat to check
the loss of moisture.
Slips 3 to 6 inches long can.lie

what director Richard Dozier
ha-; accomplished,
Mr. Dozier had limitations
that more fortunate directors
cnly have nightmares about. Al
though the Durham Y.W.C.A.’s
auditorium was cooled by a bat
tery of five noisy air conditioners,
it provided enougn obstacles be
tween audience and production
to warrant inclusion on the U. S.
Army’s standard infiltration
course.
Set design under the circum
stances could have made up
something but competent as it
was, irhlid not begin to cope
with the limitations of the stage.
Mr. Dozier’s blocking under such
conditions would have had to ap
proach divine inspiration. It did
not. In a talk play such as this
there has to be seme clear re
lation between him who speaks
and him spoken to, a line of
tension draw) clear. This hap
pened all too rarely.
Individual performances were
a bit better in some cases than
their circumstances permitted
them to be. notably Roslyn Bene- j
diet of Chape! Hill. Her render- i
ing ol the redoubtable Mrs.
Hushabye, proprietress of Heart
break House, was the most coo- j
sistently good performance of
the evening. Slie alone seemed
able to ignore the implied ne
cessity of speaking with an Eng
lish accent; as a consequence
her allotment of Shavian epi
• grams came across succinctly.
' Peggy Jones of Durham as the
ingenuous houseguest came
through with the freshness one
expects of the ingenue. But GBS
had away of transforming char
acters in midflight and Miss
Jones didn’t quite make the
‘transition.
Male actors in the Triangle j
Area have yet to learn the art
of dramatic dissembling. Where
Shaw required no depth they i
gave it. Perhaps they can be
forgiven, however, for the as
sumption that Shaw eared ;
enough about his characters to
make more than cardboard cut- j
outs capable of delivering his j
dialogue.
If nothing else, the Triangle ]
Summer Theatre has proved the |
feasibility of Shaw revivals— ;
hm it is preferable to attempt |
them through some means other
than a bucket of cold water.
or four remain near the top; slit
the lower end of each stem for
two inches by drawing a sharp
knife down the side to expose
the thin, soft, slippery layer
(cambium' that lies just under
the bark. Dip the stems in hor
mone powder, then insert them
in the flat at an angle, pushing
them down until the leaves are
near the surface. Firm the peat
moss mixture around the cut
tings, water thoroughly, cover
the hoops with a thickness of wet
cheesecloth and wrap the flat
with the polyethylene sheet, tuck
ing it under all around.
During the winter keep the flat
where the temperature is over
65°. If put in a sunny window,
it should be partially shaded. By
spring, according to Changing
Times, “the cuttings should have
a thick bundle of roots and you
should have a reputation as a
person with a new green thumb.”
