Calif., popular theatrical and nat
ionally known producer who stag
ed the comedy hit ‘'The Whole
Town’s Talking” in Anchorage
and Seward under the auspices
of the B. P. O. Elks’ last Satur
day, seemed entirely unmindful
of the expressions of praise and
gratitude showered upon him in
both towns by those who after
viewing the play declared it to be
the best amateur performance
ever seen in this section of the
Territory, if not all of Alaska,
hit Mr. Dodge refused to ac
pt the compliments, saying,
ou good people are overlooking
e fact that in putting on this
- v I enjoyed the extreme good
: rtune of being assisted by an
ateur of the highest average—.
your own Maurice L. Sharp.
"Sharp is a wonder. He not

first class actor, but is a natural
director. I am convinced that he
could have put on the play him
