TWO MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. March 30, 1355 Kaufman and Hart Comedy Will Be SOC Spring Drama Ashland "The Man Who Came to Dinner," George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart's hilar ious comedy, has been selected as the major dramatic produc tion for the spring quarter at Southern Oregon college. It will be presented in Churchill hall auditorium, May 5, 6 and 7. Kaufman and Hart, who have written plays separately and with others, have combined their talents for such successful plays as "You Can't Take it With You," "Once in a Life time," "George Washington Slept Here," "Merrily We Roll Along," and "I'd Rather be Right." 'The Man Who Came to Din ner" was a "smash hit" during the 1939-40 season. It opened in New York on Oct. 16, 1939, and closed on July 12, 1941.
