t A
Thespian Play Described
As Modern Social Fantasy
Jean Giraudourf, the author
of "The Madwoman of Chail
lot," which the Thespian
troupe of Medford High
school will present May 4, 5
and 6, is said to be one of the
; most influential of the Eu
ropean writers who have re
ceived a hearing in the Amer
ican theater,
' "The Madwoman," a social
fantasy, was translated from
the French by Maurice Valen
cy, a popular professor of
compartive' literature at Co
lumbia university,, ;;
Jean Glraudoux,' who died
In 1944, is classified as a diplomat-dramatist
since -he
served for many years in the
French foreign ministry, head
ing the Press Bureau at Quai
d' Orsay in 1924.' He was a
.. cabinet minister in 1939. He
-'; wrote several successful nov
els before turning to the thea-
v tre in middle-life. Although he
was an expert writer of trag
ic drama, it was his ability
to write ultra-modern com
edy that earned his reputation
both in France and the Unit-'
ed States. ;
In addition to "The Mad.
woman," two other Giraudoux
. plays have had successful Am
erican Droductions. "Amphy-
tryon 38" was produced by
the Theatre guild in lWJti,
: staring the Lunts. "Tiger at
the Gates," his powerful treat
ment of the Trojan war, was
finally presented in New York
in 1955. "'
Much of the Impact of Gir
audoux in America, must be
contributed to the skill of his
adapter. Valency,' who was
decorated by a ','. grateful
France when "The Madwonv
": an" received the New York
Critic Circle's award as the
best foreign play of the 1948-
40 Broadway season. 1 his
success of Valency is an indi
rect reward for the years of
frustration as an interesting
playrlght in his own right.
Several of his plays have
come near to professional pro
duction, but none has succeeded.-
"The Madwoman" displays
Giraudoux's social criticism in
ithe context of fantasy. The
play shows the author's scorn
for hypocritic morals and of
predatory materialism. He has
combined profound criticism
of society with exhuberance
rnd wit. John Mason Brown
called the play, "one of
most . Interesting and re
arding plays to have beon
r'lten within the last 20
a," and Brooks Atkinson
.. 11 ll ....u
reel lo n as pure
with no base metal.
Girauroux' set his exhuber-
snt fantasy In the stately quar
' tor of Paris called Challlot,
-. "in the spring of next year."
Tiie first act is played on the
cafe terrace of the Chez Fran
cis which is frequented by a
colorful conglomeration of
Parisian vagabonds. Into this
cheerful scene wanders the
rroup of men who represent
. e materialists of the world,
e exploiters of humanity,
hen the so-called "Madwom
i of Challlot," vCountess
Telia, is made aware of the
e of these men - the
ent, the Broker, the
i, and . the Prospector -.-
love- for j her humble
nds determines her In the
ure she will take; namely,
annihilation of all the
wicked ones."
21 Rue Challlot is the home
1 1 the Countess, open always
to the friendless, the rejected.
It is In the blzarrcly deco
rated cellar of this house that
Glraudoux, has set his second
act. Here, by twisting com
monplace logic Just enough
to make it at once comic and
bitingly true, Aurolia and her
three madwoman friends de
termine the justice of cleans
ing the world of the evil ones.
It Is also here that the Rag
picker presents, in a classic
mock-trial, an Impassioned de
fense of the money-grubbe

Gardeners Warned About
First Tussle With Spring
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
New York-IUPIl Straighten
up there gently, you garden
ers, and listen to why aching
tjii p- backs are ' as
seasonal as
scallions.
A New York
medical and
industrial con
sultant says
that, typical
i.
i of our Amer
i lean culture,
a gardeners
cay Pauley have a tend
ency to overdo the initial tus
sles with the soil. -
"It's simply that muscles
get' tired and stiff," said Dr.
John R Mote. "And when
they are stiff, they cause pain.
"You can't be a full-time
gardener in one day. Chances
are, you're stiff before you
even undertake the outdoor
physical activity, the result
of , leading a sedentary life
during the winter.
Spasms aro Price "
"If you over-exert yourself,
you have to pay the price in
muscle spasms and soreness."
Mote acts as a medical con
sultant to various industries
and specialists in coordinating
research projects. He helped
in the development of ACTH,
one of the drugs used in treat
ment of arthritis.
The physician became in
volved with the problem of
stiff and aching muscles in a
study underwritten by the
Niagara Therapy Corporation,
of Adamsville, Pa. Results of
the study, which Mote super
vised, were published in the
American Journal of Physical
Medicine. The report was
written by Dr. William Bier
man, of the staff of the Uni
versity of California Medical
School at San Francisco. ;

In announcing the party it
was pointed out that this is
another in a series of events
given by local Cancer society
members in their attempt to
raise money to assist with the
three-fold ' program of re
search, education, and service
of the American Cancer So
ciety. ; -.
Advance reservations may
be made by calling Mrs.
Antony, MUrdocl? 2-8321.
Researchers asked a group
of persons of all sizes, shapes
and ages to bend oVer and
'touch ' the floor with their
fingertips. They first were
asked ' to do this normally,
even as you and I do our sit-ting-up
exercises before
breakfast. Then, they were
given mechanical massage.
The researchers found that
the same persons could stoop
two to six inches farther after
the massage.
Tips on Exertion
Naturally, the makers of
the, massage mechanisms urge
the use of their equipment
as a pre-conditioner for gar
dening. But they also pass
along some helpful tips from
the experts for.the week end
gardener.
-Do wear a brimmed hat
for protection of the skin
against the sun. ,
--Do wear, sensible shoes.
Sling pumps or sandals throw
your heel from side to side,
pounding away at calf muscle
which in turn jolts the back.
-Don't be afraid to stoop,
bending from the knees. Bend
ing from the waist adds strain
to the back.
-Don't overdo. -Rest a few
minutes in between chores.
-If you're over 40, don't act
as if you were under 20. Rec
ognize what you're capable of
doing without causing strain.
To clean floors under heavy
pieces of furniture, rinse a
mop in clear, lukewarm water
until it is almost dry, The
damn mop run under the
furniture clears out the dust.
Soap isn't needed, because its
only dust you're removing.

The advice to gardeners in a story on this page today
comes too late for Potpourri. Take it easy when you start
your spring chores, says the Gay Pauley column. Otherwises
you may have lame muscles and an aching back. Well,
we already have sore muscles and an aching back. .. '
But last Sunday morning was such a nice, warm April
day, and there is so much spring work around the homo
acres. So we took hoe and shovel and rake in hand, and we
used them, vigorously, for about two hours. Or maybe three.
Anyhow, it was too long.
The two of us tidied up the strip between the froni lawn
and the highway. In addtion to cutting down some weeds
and grass and picking up thousands of twigs and little
limbs from the big golden willow, we also picked up the
bottles, cans, cigarette cartons and other litter which motor
ists and other passers-by toss away. This is one of the an
noyances which householders with highway frontage must
endure, it seems. :'
But we found something which did please us three
little wild rose bushes which just "volunteered" to grow on
our property. For years we kept promising to dig one up in
some isolated spot where it would not matter, but never;
got around to it. Then we discovered one growing at the
edge of an iris bed, and quickly transplanted it to a spot
where it flourishes. To find three more was better than
finding money.
We also planted a few flower seeds. Pappy had already
completed "the first planting of sweet corn. When the oak:
leaves are as big as squirrels ears, so goes ort old saying,
it is time to plant the first sweet corn. Of course, Pappy
always complains that even , when he spaces the plantings
two or three weeks' apart, the corn all, seems to ripen at
the same time. . . '
The marigolds we planted. are a new giant type which we'
tried for the first time last year, the seeds having been a
gift from a seed company. And giant they were by the end
of the season the plants Were at least three feet tall and
the stalks at the ground were as large as our wrist. And they,
bore dozens of hugeblossoms, both pale yellow and deep
gold colored. '
This year our gift seeds include other new marigolds, a
new pale calendula and a new white larkspur.
.' .'
Since this is National Library week, we hope The' Satur
day Review will not mind, if we lift a few thoughts from
the magazine column "Books and Libraries" in the April
15 issue.
Cicero once said "A room without books is a body with
out a soul." "When others fail him, the wise man looks
to the sure' companionship of books" was written by Andrew
Lang and Emerson's quotation is "A man's library is a sort
of harem." .. .
Seneca said "Leisure without a book is death and burial
of a man alive." Victor Hugo's contribution is "It is those
books which a man possesses but does not read, which con-t
stitule the most suspicious evidence against him." O.S.
