2 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, BISMARCK PLAYER | ENTERTAN IWAN Community Drama Club Mem- \ bers Also Relate Accomplish- | ments of Organization { ‘Three members of the Bismarck Community Players presented enter- tainment for the local Kiwanis club ‘Tuesday noon at its regular weekly luncheon meeting. ‘They were Chester Perry, who gave @ brief resume of the Players’ history and outlined its objective, and Miss Alice Jenson and Mrs. K. B. Peterson, who gave readings. The dramatic group was organ- fized in the fall of 1931 by John W. Reel, then Bismarck’s director of recreation, at the request of Mrs. F. H. ‘Waldo, Mrs. C. D. Dursema and Miss Helen Vaille, Perry told the Kiwan- dans. Though the organization suffered a setback when the legislature used the city auditorium, depriving the players of a “home,” the speaker said, the organization has thrived, particularly since the spring of 1935, when renewed fnterest and vigor was developed. So far this season, the Players have presented three plays, “Tons of Money,” “Stop Thief!” and “The Fool.” Two more plays and a musical comedy now are in preparation, he Baid. ‘The organization this year has un- @ertaken to establish an annual state contest for one-act adult plays. This project this year involves more than 00 plays and 2,500 players, he said. In explaining how money received ‘by the organization is put to work, Perry said the organization has bought the city auditorium its first new stage set since 1914, as well as having arranged for repair of consid- erable equipment, The players were introduced by A. C. Van Wyk, program chairman. Miss Ethel Sandin, accompanied by Miss Belle Mehus, sang two songs, the first in the French language, “The Doll Song” from Tales of Hoffman and Vainka’s Song, a Russian ballad. Guests at the luncheon meeting in- cluded William A, O'Donnell and F. ©. Bryant of Napoleon, Frank Mc- Gray of Garrison and Myron H. An- derson and Ray Robinson, assistant maintenance engineer of the state highway department, both of Bis- marck. Tokyo Stocks Drop As Exchange Opens Tokyo, March 10.—(?)—The uncer- tainties of Japan's political and eco- nomic outlook were reflected in heavy declines Tuesday on the reopening of the Tokyo stock exchange. It had been closed since the Feb. 26 military uprising and assassinations. Leading issues dropped from five to 20 yen, many of them losing more than 10 per cent of their value. ‘The reaction was attributed in part. to a statement of Finance Minister Hlichi Baba, in the new cabinet of Premier Koki Hirota, promising high- er taxes.

Her hand has been stretched across the Rhine, England has seized this hand and, is trying to serve Europe.” Semi-official Germany, reflecting a note of wariness over foreign reaction to Adolf Hitler's bold rearmament of the Rhineland, showed increasing in- terest in both the League of Nations and the reich’s war-lost colonies. Hope for Colonies As the Wilhelmstrasse mulled over the declaration of British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and pointed for Friday's Teague council meeting, indications were at hand that the reich is ready to be wooed by Geneva with the return of a colony or two as: @ possible dowry. , Im the somewhat defensive atmos- phere two especially pertinent com- yments were at hand. The Koelnische Zeitung remarked: “More remains to be said about the colonial question. This can be said when the question of Germany's re- entry into the League becomes mor: cute than now, and after Der Fuehrer has developed his program.” The Frankfurter Zeitung said: “In giving notice to the world of its readiness to return’ to the League, Germany accepts with free will the present collective system. At the same time, however, the reich is ready to add to this system a compact net of workable, regional security pacts—of course pacts without military alliances if Germany is to participate in them.” COPS TOO BUSY Charlotte, N.

The scientists claimed to ve reached an altitude of 10,000 metkrs (about 32,808 feet), the highest ever attained by a balloon of 2,200 cubic meters capacity. The scientists, I. A.
