SHIRLEY CALNAN AND
jane mcmullen prepare
FOR EUROPEAN TRIP
Trying to decide what clothes
will be needed for a 32 day
tour of Europe, and how to
pack them all in two suitcases,
are problems facing Misses Jane
McMullen and Shirley Calnan,
but they are more excited than
worried.
The two popular young Sew
ard school teachers will leave
July 28 from Philadelphia on
a Musical Journey to Europe,
sponsored by Temple University.
The tour, for which graduate
credits are given, will take them
to France, Austria, England,
Scotland and Switzerland and
is geared to fit the concert sea
son in Europe.
Miss Calnan is leaving soon!
to visit her home in Bell, Calif
ornia, before going on the tour.
Miss McMullen is going to the
University of Minnesota until
the date for departure for Eu
rope.
When asked what her musical
groups in Seward would do
during her summer absence,
Miss Calnan answered, “Prac
tice, I hope!’’
The only exercise some wives
get is running up bills and
jumping at conclusions.

More than once I have heard
expressions among Seward
adults of a wish for a little thea
ter group. There is one now, but
like every other pioneer group
in any field whatever, the Sew
ard Repertory Theater move
ment needs help.
In the words of one of the
group leaders, “The theater,
properly used is a valuable tool
in education, and as a general
gateway to art has no superior
and very few equals. It is a
spring board, a taking off point
in art, history, and literature.
Its scope is as all embracing
as life itself and requires the
coordination of a multitude of
activities. It cannot be prac
ticed alone; no individual how
ever gifted can practice the art
of the theater; it must be prac
ticed by a group and can em
brace the whole community.
“In this modern society, writ
ing, speaking and theater going
are important activities. We are
a nation of theater goers. Those
of us who seldom see a profes
sional play are deeply interest
ed in movies, and the radio
theater.”
A few people have had the
nerve to start the play going
in Seward. Let's get behind
them and help put the city
among those others in the Ter
ritory that have successful ama
teur theater groups. Everything
—meaning every sort of help—
is needed. From those who have
had experience on the amateur
stage, those who would like to
act a part and join in the fun
of play preparation to others
who like the building and stage
settings, costuming, makeup,
etc., for the production itself.
dui Lii o t it I2> mi^cituivi: men
tho building be made habitable.
There is no money available to
the Gateway Repertory. They
have no means of financing the
project until after their first
successful play. They need lum
ber. both dressed and unfinish
ed. Glass, paint, electrical fix
tures, plumbing, rope, wire, roof
ing paper (the roof leaks). Nuts,
bolts and nails, with the volun
teer labor to put the thing to
gether.
Almost any householder has
a little something to contribute
to the cause, if it is no more
than a single length of shiplap
or flooring, a sheet of canvas,
or what have you?
Call Larry Cobb or his wife
Eunice, call Chrystine Rouse, or
Father Borbeck; say “I have
something you can use,” and
somehow they will get it out
of your way and put it to good
use.
Let’s help these courageous
people pioneering a new field
in Seward.
People have faults, it's true,
but the average person is will
ing and anxious to be of help
to others.
The individual who paddles
his own canoe and his own chil
dren, has a good chance of liv
ing a happy life.

Fred Mohr, shore foreman of
Bailey’s cannery at LaTouche,
and Dan Ackerson, pilot, came
into Seward Saturday in their
Seabee. Mohr has been at Cook
Inlet for the past three weeks
getting a crew of clam diggers
together and supervising their
operations. He reports that the
commercial clam digging, al
though slow at the beginning,
is picking up good now.
