...Connecticut, the Stony Creek Theatre, the Chapel Playhouse (Guilford), the new Litchfield Playhouse and Connecticut Players (Milford) were all to be going full blast by July 4. The Ivoryton Playhouse, now seven years old, revives shortly thereafter. An unusual arrangement has been made by Day Tuttle and Richard Skinner of the Westchester Playhouse at Mt. Kisco, N. Y. Lawrence Langner, one of the few urban producers who still retains an interest in summer stock, has handed over to them the management of his Country Playhouse at Westport for the summer. Shows which open in the Mt. Kisco theatre will play...
Solemnly the Most Noble Order of the Garter, headed by the King & Queen, shuffled into place, proceeded to St. George's Chapel-the choir of which is the Garter Chapel-to worship together for the first time in 23 years, the second time in 129.

Scott Fitzgerald changed Joe Gish into an ape. Last week it was revealed that all this spring a band of prankish seniors at Iowa State College (Ames) had actually persuaded their psychology, botany and chemistry instructors...
...greatly that the Coryell family, its sole owners, are now worth well over $1,000,000. In their business dealings the Coryells are shrewd, firm and virtually indistinguishable, father from son. Toward their employes they show a rather juicy paternalism. Six years ago Father Coryell instituted Monday morning chapel service for office workers whom he suspected of not going to Church on Sunday. A rumor denied by the Coryells is that there were penalties for nonattendance. Another exaggeration is that the office girls are fined if they go to the lavatory more often than once in the morning, once after...
