"The Duchess of Malfi," the first non-Shakespearean play to be seen at America's First Elizabethan theatre, will be repeated on August 31 only. Meanwhile, four Shakespearean productions rotate nightly through September 3: "The Taming of the Shrew," "Julius Caesar," "The Tempest," and "Richard II." and repair toys for a Sunday school or kindergarten class. Oregon Leads Oregon leads other stales in approaching child develop ment projects on an enjoy ment of children basis, re ports Lois Redman, stale 4-H extension agent. Previous child development projects were centered mainly on baby-sitting. Mrs. Roberta Frasier, OSC extension family life special ist and author of the project, believes that youngsters miss the experience of taking care of younger brothers and sis ters. Families are smaller to day and there's less of an age span between the oldest and the youngest child. Educators have found that the 9 to 12 age group are at a favorable stage of readiness to develop positive attitudes toward children, says Mrs. Frasier. At this age they are more sensitive to others and can learn to appreciate differ ences in behavior among youngsters. This appreciation for young children help them become more understanding parents, she believes.

'Scissors Lady' Wins Friends By ROY FERGUSON United Press International Providence, R.I. Q u e e n Elizabeth, Bob Hope and Li- berace are just a few of the many persons who have thanked Rhode Island's "Lady With The Scissors." She's Mrs. Robert Heusel, operator of the only free clip ping service in the state and possibly in the country. Mrs. Heusel collects news papers from several neighbors every three days. She clips out pictures and attached stor ies and mails them to the per son or persons -featured in the news. Her "free" service is speedy. If your face shows up on the pages of a Providence news paper you can expect an en velope from Mrs. Heusel within a week picture en closed. And if you're like two thousand other persons, you'll drop her a line of thanks. These letters keep the lady snipping. "It's such a wonderful feel ing," she said, "to know that if it were not for me, many persons could never know their pictures appeared in the paper." Many Newspapers The fact that the picture or story appeared in several hun dred newspapers doesn't both er Mrs. Heusel. "It doesn't make any differ ence how big or important a person is; he can still use ex tra copies," she said. Queen Elizabeth dropped Mrs. Heusel a line to lot her know how happy she was. to receive a picture of her two eldest children. "It is such a beautiful picture and 1 was afraid she might miss it," Mrs. Heusel said. Bob Hope, Marion Marlowe and Liberace returned glossy photographs with their notes of appreciation. Not all the return mail is the grateful kind. Some jeal ous wives want to know how Mrs. Heusel knew their hus bands! Mrs. Heusel has sent out more than 50,000 clippings since the beginning of World War II. In those days she col lected papers from 18 neigh bors and sent pictures of serv icemen to their parents. Mrs. Heusel doesn't keep track of how much she has spent on postage. "It would take all the fun out of it," she said. known as KIP, began with an impromptu audition two years ago in the living room of Mrs. Kay Irvine, a grandmother of 10. The audition developed quite accidentally into forma tion of a group of regular entertainers. Now the suburbs are full of KIP groups busily entertaining each other, teen age clubs, civic organizations and the bed-ridden. Problem children are re ferred to KIP through Mrs. Irvine by their worried par ents and teachers. "My idea of fun used to be drinking gin and wine on week ends," said one KIP graduate. "Now it's singing." KIP's biggest success has been with the Log Cabin School, a correctional institu tion in South San Francisco. Boys sent there usually are considered incorrigible. The Log Cabin lads attend ed KIP shows at first only under protest. But then three surprised everyone by de manding that they be let In on the act. From then on, KIP got some of its best talent from the Log Cabin School. Ed Shea, the institution's superintendent, said KIP has "a marvelous effect on the boys' morale, ambition and be havior." KIP groups now put on monthly shows in veterans hospitals, and have been awarded a certificate of ap preciation from the U.S. Army. In Daly Cily, they recently gave a show in the War Me morial Community Center to raise money to help save the life of a 13-year-old San Bru no girl in need of a major heart operation. KIP's most startling achieve ment during its brief exist ence, Mrs. Irvine said, is that for some young people, it is becoming the start of a career. One of KIP's problem chil dren, a young vocalist, recent ly made his first professional recording. EVER TASTED Mrs, O'Hare's C Pears? Scads ol Exhibits!
