Three Waltzes (adapted by Clare Kummer & Rowland Leigh from a play by Paul Knepler and Armin Robinson; produced by Messrs. Shubert). Between old-fashioned operetta and newfangled musi-comedy is more than a gulf of years. Nevertheless light opera still goes on, for even in Manhattan many a theatregoer would still rather swoon to a waltz than tap his restless feet to the beat of a topical song.

This militant Congressman was Clare Hoffman of Allegan, an indefatigable 61-year-old Republican who looks like the late Will Rogers. He has been known as a friend of public power, a foe of C.I.O. Somewhat excitable by temperament, Mr. Hoffman by last week was downright jumpy. Though Monroe, Mich., where C.I.O. was beaten fortnight ago when Republic Steel's local plant was reopened after a brisk picket line skirmish, is not in Congressman Hoffman's district, a brief visit there was enough...
