By the Assoclated Press NEW YORK, December 4 —They call thelr lttle theater up on East Fifty. ninth street “The Lighthouse.” Tonight and tomorrow night they will speak the lines and perform the business of three lively one-act comedies. No mumbling, no stumbling—but it's different than if they were ordinary players. “They” are five girls—all blind. The one-act plays will open their eighth season and the proceeds will go to the blind unemployed. “The Light- house” is sold out and the S. R. O. sign will be up. Learn Each Expression. A dress rehearsal last night tested their precision. They walked on to their cues, sat in chairs, turned radio i and closed doors, picked ne, held newspapers and read—did all the business ry actors do with the aid of eyes, spoke their lines and never groped They “looked” at each other. They handed things to each other. The audience will be aware of their state, but not at all because of the way they act. What the audience will | not know, though, is the task they had | in rehearsal The blind, said Miss Phyllis Marschall, who directed the plays, have no expres- n aside from laughter.

Bumps in the rugs guide them over the stage. In addition to their lines, which they must learn from Braille, they have to remember how many steps {rom each bump is each article of furniture, and they must make the steps with a poise that does not give away the counting. All of the blind girl players are self- supporting. Ruth Askenas and Lillian Hillman are stenographers for the New York Association for the Blind. Sara Rae is a handicraft worker and weaver. {Mary Ruth Bierman is a teacher of | diction and dancing. Margaret Foley |1s an office worker. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
