E. F. Perkins, secretary, said con- sumers, retailers and marketing experts will be brought together at the meeting to give attention to consumers’ needs. The society has especially invited a group of Washington women, as repre- sentative “home purchasing agents,” who have been acting in studying rt search material from the angle of bene- fit to the consumer. John Guernsey, Philadelphia, will be the speaker. He will discuss price as a consumer standard for the measurement of values. ‘The meeting is being held under supervision of the society’s Committee on Consumer Research, of which Miss Ada Lillian Bush of the Commerce De- partment is chairman. gaged in retail marketing and the per- sonnel of newspaper and other adver- ’litsmz services for retailers is invited to "INCORPORATED: "OUR PLUMBER’ Any one en-|| By the Associated Press. CHARDON, Ohio, January 28.—The evidence is in and the County Board of School Examiners has spoken, but Huntsburg was debating tonight over which side had scored a victory in the village's sensational “spitting episode.” Sterling Willlams, school teacher and constable, who was cast for the role of hero or villain, according to the faction you belong to in Huntsburg, escaped without having his county tea license revoked. But Mrs. Hattie Adams and three other prominent and well-to-do citi- zens of the village had the satisfaction of having seen the school teacher pub- licly reprimanded for “conduct unbe- cor_lr}tllng; z:mol teacher.” e decision was based partly on William’s own admission Lha,;, %’ did not purposely spit at them. But I did thumb my nose at them, and I did make a noise like Eddie Cantor.” Outside the hearing, this noise was described by the Rev.

It all started months ago and final- ly culminated six weeks ago in a meet | | cussiony and Mrs. Sherman Millard accused Williams of spitting at them and in many other ways acting in a “disgust- ing manner.” Williams denied most of the charges and prepared to fight the demand for | revocation of his county teaching li- | cense—which expires in a month any- | way.

The examiners, after hearing 15 wit- nesses and spending two hours in pri- vate deliberation, declined to revoke the license but reprimanded Williams for “conduct unbecoming a school teacher” and “for conduct unbecoming any 1aan even under the most provoca- tive circumstances.” In the hearing Mrs. Adams, the star witness, said the episode started when Williams began drawing pictures of the assembled citizens and followed that :'xlpx aI:y accusing her of not paying her “Then he thumbed his nose at us and made a disgusting noise with his mouth,” she said. “I started to leave.

Theaters. Walter Hampden in the Tragedy of Hamlet. WALTER HAMPDEN played Hamlet. Were that not evidence enough of 2 high peak in the drama of the current Washington season, the hushed attention of all ages that packed the National Theater mati- nee bore mute Witness. 3 It has been said thntds Hamlet's enigmatic character lends oppor- tunity to any actor to brood and mope successfully in the great Shakespearean tragedy of a Danish prince’s indecision. But none have given, perhaps none will ever give, a more Jucid interpretation of that strange interior force that makes men bid their duty wait. There was the experi cxample of the master in Mr. Hampden's rendi- tion of the famous advice to the players. Moderation was there, n]cng_ with vigor, no “sawing of the air’ in artificial gesture, no passion torn to shreds, but all of artistry. Mr. Hampden's supporting cast bore up even better than in Caponsacchi. C. Normand Hammond as King Claudius, unscrupulous uncle and despised father-in-law of the Danish prince, brought forth a villainy with power. Evelyn Venable, as Ophelia, brought beauty to her role—perhaps too much, for her natural charm in early scenes made madness seem un- natural later on. ‘Mabel Moore, as Queen Gertrude, Hamlet's moth nd Ernest Rowan, as Laertes, afforded high points to the play's illusion of reality. And for comic reliefs, amid the great sweeps of conscience-torn mor- tals, J. P. Wilson as Polonius, the Lord Chamberlain, found humor of character in lines that too easily might have been left meaningless. Whitford Kane, whose part, though brief, afforded a bright spot as a singing grave-digger, toying with skulls, An_especial role of interest here was that of one of the players who took a part in Hamlet's self-written conscience play—that plaved by Laura Barrett. a former Washing- tonian and student at American University. But it is the performance of Mr. Hampden himself that makes the play alive and modern, despite three- century cld introspective lines that often are not understood. Withal there can be no better commentary than this—Walter Hampden yesterday played Ham- let—W. H. Benefit Luncheon Thursday.
