Revive “Strife” Galsworthy Play

(By Thomas T. Champion) (Canadian Press Staff Writer) LONDON, May 31--"Strife" is the first of John Galsworthys plays to be revived after the author's death. The revival is due to Miss Nancy Price, of the People's Na- tional Theatre Movement. She has taken the Little ‘Theatre and en- trusted the production to Stanley Drewitt. f Almost a quarter-century has gone by since "Strife" was first giv- en to the public. and for the last 2o years its performance has been left to amateurs. The present pro- duction is admirable. and proves that the dramatic qualities of the play can be as arresting today as they were nearly_va generation ago. Fisher White plays the part of the strike leader, which he creat- ed in the original production. Franklin Dysll appears as John Anthonyf and Miss Nancy Price herself. plays the part of Mrs. Hob- erts. The whole caste, which num- bers 9'1, is a remarkable one, and the producer has affected wonders upon so small a stage as the Little Theatre. The production brings forth unstiniod commendation from all the critics. '

rrrsoir Downs, England, May 91-King George. Queen Mary and a throng of several hundred thous- and today saw Hyperion, Lord Derby's chestnut colt, race past the judges‘ stand and win a record breaking victory in the famous Derby, first run in 1870. It was the second triumph for Lord Derby in the famous classic his ancestors founded 153 years ago, and the third for his house. ,

Ifyperion, sired by Gainsborough frcrn Selene, was 9-1, favorite when the race started. A flood of last- minute betting lifted him from second choice over the head of Lord Woolavingtom; Manitoba which finished nowhere. Under Tommy Weston the winner cover- od the mile. and a half of one of the hardest flat courses in the world in 2:34, knocking 2-5 seconds off the record set in 1927 by F. Curzon's Call Boy. It was Weston! second Derby victory. He rode Lord Derby's Sanovlno, winner in 1924.

Four lengths behind Hyperion pounded King Salmon, Sir Hugo Cunliffe-Owenk bay colt by Sal- mon Trout out_ of Malva at odds of 7 to 1 while Victor Emanuers Statesman, brown colt by Bland- ford from Dail at 20 to 1 finished another length back. Harry Wragg, aboard King Salmon, missed his third Derby triumph and Carslake, up on Statesman, his first.

The veteran bteve Donoghue, winner of six Derbles, rode Thraps- ton, Lord Derby's second string horse and broke away from the field of 24 three-year-olds at the start, dropped back and came up again near Tattenham Corner. His mount could not stand the pace, however, and Hyperion broke away, tearing along the downhill home- stretch. It was all King Salmon could do to hold onto second placo as he and Statesman fought for that honor. .

Scarlet Tiger. owned by Lord Durham, gave Statesman a fine battle for show while Ccroado and Raymond finished fifth and sixth

respectively.

The race was worth 29,336 to the winner. ‘

There could not have been a more popular winner than the smiling, witty Lord Derby.

"I'm too excited. I don't know what to say," was his answer to questions as he led Hyperion into the winner's circle,

Hyperion! victory represented a beautiful bit of cooperation be- tween Weston and ,1: noghue on Thrapston, who was engaged to ride the winner only after J. A. Dewar’s Lochiel failed to stand training.

Doncghue. riding a horse famous for his speed but rated a non-stay- er. was told to win if he could but in any event to set the pace for the fancied Hyperion. The veteran obeyed instructions to the letter.

Weston himself told the story like this:

“I won the race at the gate. I was afraid Hyperion would not like the firm going. but he jumped away well and I just let him go along, tagging behind Steve on Ilhrapson, who was out to set the pace for me. '

"When we reached ‘Ilattenham Corner I shouted for Steve to pull out. He didn't hear me so I shouted again. This time he heard and gave me an opening on the rail. I shot through on the inside but Hyperion began to slow up after getting into the lead. I used the whip once and he drew away to win in a. center.

"I saw only four horses in the whole of the race. A jolly good horse won a. jolly good race for a jolly good owner and won it easily."

That about describes the race, as it was strictly a. Lord Derby affair from start to finish. King Salmon kept well up with the leaders from the start but he was no match for Hyperion once Weston turned on the power. Statesman also ran a great race, closing fast in the 1955 half-mile run down hill to nose out Scarlet Tiger for third place, Donoghue brought ‘rhrapstcn home fifth and was followed by Raymond and Franz Hals.

London May Have New Exhibition

(By Thomas '1'. Champion) (Canadian Press Staff Writer) LONDON, May Ill-There is a prospect of London being endowed with a permanent "Wembley Ex- hibltion." The Alexandra Palace on the northern heights of London, which has long been the despair of all concerned with it, has been tak- en in hand by no fewer than 18 local authorities, who have recom- mended grants for its moderniza- tion which will amount to $1,000,- 000. It is proposed the palace shpll be so renovated as to convert it into a, first-rate palace of exhibit- ion and general amusement.

The history of the Alexandra Pal- ace ls a dreary one. It was opened exactly 60 years ago as a. northern rival to the Crystal Palace, which stands on the youthcrnhills bor- derlng London. A fortnight after its opening it was burned out. Shortly after it had been rebuilt it was compelled to close owing to lack of funds, and remained cloud for nine years.

For 20 years following it had fit- ful bursts of enterprise. At length money was subscribed to save the park from falling to the specula- tive house builder. The park, which extends to almost 200 acres, was a valuable acquisition, but nobody ev- er has been able to do anything effective with the great sprawling palace itself. During the war it made itself useful, first as a har- borage for Belgian refugees, and later for German prisoners.

The only good thing in the Pai- ace is the great organ. This was the masterpiece of "Father" Henry Willis. Music lovers of North Ion- don a few years back contrived to find the money to make the organ as good as new, and week-end concerts at the palace have been

popular.

BEDEQUE

The Y. P. S. debate between North Bedeque and Freetown was held in Freetown hall on ‘Monday, May 22, with a large audience in attendance. The resolution, “Resolved, that the drink traffic is a greater enemy to the state than war," was introduced by the chairman, Rev. J. W. A. Nich- olson, and upheld by Ralph Mac- Caull, Vernon MacQuarrie and Er- nestine Marchbank, of North Bede- que, who stated that the financial trouble. moral degradation and soc- ial misery caused by the drink traf- fic far exceeds that caused by war, as war is only periodic while drink is a constant evil. Their opponents, Louis Cairns, Dorothy Aulci and Margaret Pillman argued these points ‘very strongly and unanim- ously won the debate. The judges were: Rev. L. P. Archibald, M1‘. Hor- ace Wright and Prof. W. J. Reid.

Messrs. G. Emerson Hucstis and Yr. Austin Jardine, of Wiimot Valley. have returned home, after success- fully completing their Freshman Year at Mt. Allison.

FISHERMEN’S'

(Continued from Page 1)

Reprisals took the form of trap- destruction on both sides, and p, was estimated that 800 traps were lost on the little shoal, which is a half mile or so in length. A shot was reported fired.

Today both factions were fishing quietly, with the Arleux not far off, But caution had taken the place of agreasion. Many lobstermen were getting their gear without buoys. They were thus able, by landmarks to locate their traps, secure in the knowledge that rivals would be un- able to find them. This system has the disadvantage that it is nec- essary to drag for traips before hauling them to get the catch, as the mooring lines are not floated. There was also the possibility of aecldent—but so far no fisherman of either party had dropped his traps inadvertently on mother's lines. -
