local Play Casi Considers Trip To Cape Breton

The question of whether the cast of "Papa is All", the Little Theatre Guild production recent- ly rel7urned from London, On- lario, would consider going to Cape Breton if invited to appear there, was one of the main sub- jects of discussion at an executive meeting of the Little Theatre Guild last evening.

It is understood that Cape Bre- ton is holding a week of Festival in August and inviting an opera and a ballet to appear, during that week. While the local group were in Iondon they were ap- proached to see if they would be interested in appearing, all ex- penses pald, and the meeting last evening decided to look into the question further before calling the cast together for a final de- cision.

The meeting was held at the home of the President, Mr. T. Harry Morris, and other items of interest which were discussed at

length were the forthcoming children's production of "Hansel and Gretel". and the musical

revue, "FeelIn' Festive," which is to be the L.T.G.'s contribution to the Charlottetown Fastive Week.

Rcibe Scantlcbury, director of the children's play announced her production was progressing fav- orably, with tentative dates set for the middle of June.

Memberships for the forthcom- ing season were discussed and it was decided these should be on sale at the door on the evenings of the performances of ”l-lansel and Gretel."

Before adzlourning the meeting, Mr. Morris expressed the sincere appreciation of the executive to the cast of "Papa" for the excel-

Innkeepers

The semi-annual meeting of the .2. I. Innkeepers Association was held last evening. May 25 in the "Blue Room" at Milton's Old Spain. A summary of the year's work to date was given by the president, Mr. Vaughan Groom.

A committee was appointed to interview the government on the rag weed situation and the mos- quito menace. A report was given by Wendell Mulch on the recent hearing of the Maritime Electric Light rate: before the Public Utilities Board. It was felt by those present that if demand met- ers were installed it might cause grave hardship to the tourist in-

dustry. . The guest speaker was Mr. George Fraser. director of the

Travel Bureau of P. E. I. lie out- lined some of the aims and ob- jective: of the Bureau and assured the Association that he would be glad to co-operate with them in every way. He stated that the progpects were very bright for the coming season.

Speaking of the Tourist ser- vice week, he uplained this was actually a period of education to acquaint the people of the Prov- lnce to the value of the tourist industry, not only to the resort operators but to the farmers. fish- mmn, 1-stall merchants. service station operators. and souvenir ships.

It was pointed out by different operators that the tourist industry is now second in importance to agriculture as It had a revenue In the past year of approximately four and one half million dollars. and now exceeds that of fisheries.

Reassurance has been received from the government that the road from Kt-nslrvston to summer- alde, sumnieralde to Borden and from Poole'n Corner to George- town and cardigan will be hard surfaced this year.

A report was given by the com- Inittoo which waited on the gov- ernment about highway signs. No policy has been laid down by the government as yet but it is expect- rd I decision will be announced as soon as the Premier returns.

Regret was expressed that Mr. W. N. Sharpe. sanitary engineer, was unable to attend the msellnlt as the members had hoped to hear something further on the Bonit- atlon A d Prormm jrhll

. THE GUARDIAN.

Chief Justice Thane A. Camp- bell deplored the deterioration in English ' , studies in this Province in addressing the ninety- first convocation gathering at Prince of Wales College yesterday morning. .

Sopeal-ring as the President of the newly-formed P.W.C. Alumni AI- sociation, Chief Justice Campbell urged the gr '. i especially those who have chosen teaching as a profession, to emphasize the mdy of the English language in their classes. .

He continued by saying his criticism did not reflect on the College, asaall fundamentals in this subject should have been learned by the students preview. to their entering P.W.C.

He also told the large audience that the elimination of Greek and Latin from certain schools in the Province did not, in his opinion, work out as the sponsors or ad- vocals: of such elimination had maintained it would. He stated their purpose in the elimination of these subjects was that it would enable the students to gain a more thorough knowledge of the English language, but that it had not worked out this way.

Chief Justice Campbell warned the students they musll. not fall victims to the belief expressed in some quarters that P.W.C. stud- ents were wasting their time in taking two years of study in pre- paration for University work. He said that when he was Premier persons had approached him ad- vocating the construction of a high school in Charlottetown. and using as their argument that stud- ents attending high schools in this Province only spent one year there after grade ten in order to gain entrance to university. He stated he had replied to this argument by stating that Char- lottetown, in Prince of Wales College, already had as fine a high school as there was in Can- ada, and was privileged in hav- ing an institution where students might remain for a further two years' study.

Referring to various scholar- ships and bursaries available to students of P.W.C.. Chief Justice Campbell said the people of this Province have not become scholar- ship conscious. He cited the fact that no student studying in the Province had secured a Rhodes scholarship since 1926, and that two Island studcnts. studying in mainland colleges, had obtained Rhodes scholarships in that time

He continued by saying it was

one of the purposes of the new Alumni Association to remedy this apparent lack of interest in schol- arship and bursaries.

The speaker referred to the meat and enduring work done for the Collese and the people of the Province by two previous Principals, the late Dr. S. N. Robertson and Dr. G. D. Steel, re- cently retired. He congratulated Dr. A. MacKinnon, the present Principal. on the excellent work he was doing.

Congratulations were also ex- tended by the speaker to Lieu. tenant Governor T. W. L. Prowse on his first public appearance as the representative of the King, and Valedictorian, Bruce Wood. of Pownal, on the high quality of his valedictoiy.

Following an address by Dr. Frank A. Macxinvnon, earlier in the program, Valedictorian Bruce Moore delivered a speech of in- spiration and encouragement to his fellow graduates and other students of the college. He re- ferred to the friendships made during the years at P.W.C., and of memories which will be cherish- ed by the students down through the years.

He commented on the forward strides in student life during the past four years. and expressed the gratitude of the graduating class to the members of the faculty for their untiring efforts. In clos- ing -he addressed his fellow grad- ualcs. and urged them to recogn- ize God as their teacher until suc-h time as they should reach their final graduation.

For the first time in its long school history Prince Street school yesterday had its own Cadet Corps on parade for inspection by Brig- adier W. W. Reid, D.S.0. In their first year Brig. Reid told the boys "You have done exceptionally well and deserve a great deal of credit."

Equally as pleased with the show- ing made was Lt. Col. K. M. John- ston, 5th signals Regiment with which the cadet corps is affiliated. Col. Johnston was very gratified with the display and stated the in- structors had done a. remarkable job in such a short time. The in- spection was held at Memorial Field.

.There were the time honored military manoeuvres of the march past,-first in column of platoons and then in column of route, ns well as the general salute. During his tour of inspection Brig. Reid stopped frequently to tail: to the boys and compliment them -on their showing. I

In addition to the strictly milit- ary dlsplays there were demonstra- tlons of first aid work, map read- ing, Bren gun and physical train- ing.

"A rising tide of interest in the problems of alcohol on the part of leaders in business, education and public life is evident in all parts of Canada". said Rev. John Linton in his address to the Welcome Banquet held in his honor at the Baptist Church Hall at Charlotte- town last evening.

Mr. Linton has just completed a tour of New Brunswick, Nova. Sco- tla and Newfoundland, and in his address stated that the problem is greater today because of the in-
