smoking, taboo for the youngsters and indulged in moderately by the elders. If a boy or girl under legal age pre­ sumes to drink or smoke, Mr. Withers does not forbid it; he says only, "I don't believe I'd do that this time; none of the others are, you see." It always is sufficient deterrent, with no one embarrassed by the incident. De.adline-This is agreed upon by the entire party in advance, much the same as a time limit is set for a friendly poker game. Eleven-thirty to midnight, or until the first floor show is over, is the customary curfew for night-club dates, and ten-thirty is deadline for bowling, skating and such. Finances-Everyone pay his own way at sports events. If the Withers invite the young people, Mr. Withers pays the entire check at night-clubs. If they are invited by the young peo­ ple to chaperon the affair, the check is whacked up equally between Mr. Withers and the other "men." He be­ lieves this not only feeds their self­ respect and pride but teaches them valuable lessons in keeping their spending within their means. PLays and Movies-The nature and content of the play is investigated by Mrs. Withers before plans are com­ pleted for attending it. Should some unforeseen and distasteful feature arise, they &it through it quietly andr leave at the end of the act. To flounce out in indignation at the time of the occurrence, Mrs. Withers feels, only places undue emphasis upon the un- fortunate matter. . pERFECT proof of the wisdom of such a course was demonstrated at a night-club recently when the Withers chaperoned Jane and Buddy on a date. A new number was added to the floor show, an extremely sensual dance by an extremely undressed woman. Mrs. Withers was sick with concern. Sud­ denly Buddy addressed the table. "Gee,'? he said innocently, "she re­ minds me of an old history teacher I had in Kentucky!" Hilarious laughter naturally greeted the remark, and the dancer and the dance were forgotten. Mr. Withers summed up the essence of successful chaperoning in this fashion: "It's not so much what you say and do as the way you say and do it. Differentiate between a command and a request and youngsters will co­ operate one hundred percent. No one wants to be told to carry out an order, but everyone likes to grant a favor. This is particularly true of young peo­ ple in their relationship to their elders."

FORfifty-two weeks New York audi- ences packed the Shubert Theater to laugh with Katharine Hepburn in her smashing comedy of "Main Line" Phil­ adelphia society- "The Philadelphia Story." Suddenly every Hollywood studio was bidding against the other for the highly successful play and, more remnrkablc, for the services of Katharine Hepburn-a star who had left Hollywood two years before under the shadow of an exhibitors' blacklist which named her as "poison at the box-office." Miss Hepburn IS in the "THE Philadelphia social register. She first Came to the screen as a result of a smashing stage performance in "The PHILADELPHIA STORY" Warrior's Husband ," was an overnight sensation in fi lms with" her fi rst ap­ pearance in "A Bill of Divorcement."

T HIS WEE K 'SO PER A: "Otello" on NBC Saturday

"OTELlO" is based on Shakespeare's "Othello," story of the Moorish governor of Cyprus who is deceived by his false friend, lago, into believing his wife, Desdemona, unfaithful. He strangles her and learns too late of her innocence. In the first act, crowds await Otello's return from the Turkish wars. lago connives with Roderigo to get Cassio, Otello's friend and lieutenant, into trouble. Otello dismisses Cassie for being drawn into a brawl. In Act II, Desdemona pleads for' Cassio, and lago convinces Otello that her pity for Cassio is a sign that she loves him. Otello falls into a rage, and Desdemona, in an effort to quiet him, wipes his brow with her handkerchief, which she drops unnoticed. lago re­ trieves it and tells Otello he found it in Cassio's room. In Act III, Otello, insane with fury, insults his wife publicly, is relieved of his post as governor and replaced by Cassio. Otello enters his wife's room and, shouting recriminations, strangles her with a pillow. Too STEllA ROMAN wi ll take the late, lago's wife, Emilia, reveals the plot; overcome with remorse, BRUNO WALTER, noted opera soprano role of Desdemona in the Otello stabs himself.

PLAY OF THE WEEK: ":': l "The Awful Truth ' on CBS· Sunday N0 TEAR·JERKER is this week's top drama attraction. In fact, perhaps we shouldn't even call it drama. It springs from no vital social problem-save the most vital but most commonplacp. of all , that of getting along with one of the opposite sex under the same roof. It has no profound implication relevant to staggering world conditions. Which is, perhaps, enough reason to set it up as a special attraction. It's pure-except for generous spicing­ comedy. Hilarious, explosive comedy. The kind to make you perk up and forget world woes and private worries. "The Awful Truth" was really one of the funniest movies you could see in the all­ laughs-short-of-slapstick class. Irene Dunne and Cary Grant were the loving lunatics who made it a screen hit three years ago. Myrna Loy and Don Ameche will do the humorous honors on "Screen Guild Theater" this Sunday. Scenes to listen for: The opening scene when each comes home from where neither believed the other to' be; her antics at the swank p~rty ("Don't GLOR IA JEAN performed her FRANK ALBERTSON supported late~t picture, "A Little Bit of anybody move! Where's my' purse 7"); the swinging door between Gloria Jean in her latest starring Heaven," for "Lux Radio Th eater" the bedrooms.
