S C I N I Main÷enance Service Man
• The Shelton City Commission Police Chief Frank Rains told
is looking into the best way to
handle the maintenance on its
radios for the police, fire and
street departments.
William Cooper, who had han-
dled the maintenance work under
a contract with the city for many
years, died last week.
Representatives of a firm eel-
led Red-Corn from Aberdeen ap-
peared at the commission meet-
ing Tuesday to diseuss the pos-
sibility of taking over the work
on a contract basis.
They stated they would come
up with some cost estimates and
other information and then ar-
range a meeting with the city
and with other agencies in the
county whose radios Cooper main-
tained.
through other acquisitions, Reed
said.
DL's CORNER
• With the cold weather that
hit th:s country right at New
Years a good many people were
actually looking forward to some
warmer weather. However, it
:;eems that the weather man has
omething against warm weather
"nuts", and is now predicting
another "Alaskan" storm front to
hit with the same low tempera-
tures as before . . .
You needn't wocry about "free-
zing" prices as there are so
many sales going on right now
in Shelton, that it's hard to men-
tion them all in the space slotted
to this corner . . .
However, we will try our best
Chamber To
to mention a few of them . . .
Jim Pessemier, manager
MILLER'S, has slashed the pri-
ces on ladies jewelry to one half.
Also, the white sale is continu-
ing, so don't miss out on either . .
Rod Olsen, owner of OLSEN
FURNITURE, has taken inven-
tory and is now readying the
store for a storewide clearance.
Meet Tonight
the commission Don Ashley of
Olympia was taking care of the
radios this moth on a temporary
basis.
State Rep. Charles Savage ap-
peared at the meetin to discuss
the need for a walkway of some
kind down the Hillcrest hill. lie
said that when the State Depart-
ment had widened and improved
the road, they had destroyed a
part of the path which used to be
used by foot traffic on the hill.
Savage suggested that the etty
contact the State Highway De-
partment to see if they would
replace the footpath since there
had been one there before the
highway work was done.
City Engineer Howard Godat
was asked to check with the state
on the problem.
The commission voted to join
with Mason County in the forma.
tion of a regional planning coun-
cil.
Two Appear
In Courf

perior Court Friday.
Treptow was accused of as-
saulting Jess Cafes, Tahuya, last
Aug. 4.
Treptow had been arrested at
the time of the incident and
had posted bail and was released
from jail.
He appeared in court with his
attorney, Frank Shires, Port Or-
chard.
An order committing Donald L.
Macomber to Western State Hos-
pital 90 days to determine if he
is mentally comoetent to stand
trial was signed by Judge Charles
Wright.
The proposed order was pre-
sented by Jerome Buzzard, Olym-
pia attorney who was appointed
the previous week to represent
Maeomber in place of Byron Me-
Clanahan, Shelton attorney. Me-
comber had asked the court for
a change of attorneys.
He is schedulted to go on trial

sault, robbery, escape and taking

High School Dramatics Depart-
ment presents one of the most
moving, most magnificent works
of literature "I.ok Homeward,
Angel", winner of both the Pul-
itzer Prize and the New York
Critics Award in 1958, as their
major production for the week-
end of March 15.
"Look Homeward, A n g e 1",
adapted by Ketti Frings from
Thomas Wolfe's autobiographical
novel, is the facsinating story of
the Gant family, and most parti-
cularly of Eugene Cant (the name
Thomas Wolfe used for himself
in his novel). Though mainly
about Eugene and his tense strug-
gle to break the "home-ties", it is
portraying the Gant family, each
at a crucial point in life.
Teh Cant family - a people
locked together by unyeilding
bonds, split apart by violent an-
tagonisms. They experience mel-
ancholy and mirth, greed and
generosity, hate and love - they
are forever apart and yet forever
• together. In them there is sen-
sualits,, superstition and mean-
and an engulfing will to live that
outlaws complacency . . . truly
an unforgettable family.
The production is largely dou-
ble cast, with few exceptions.
Chris Lonn will portray the s,'>le,
central character of Eugene Gant
in his attempt to excape adole-
sence and seek reality. Virginia
Medley and Margy Tylczak play
the "queen-bee" Eliza Gent, mot-
her and ruler. Ben Cant, the
weakened "home - strung" older
brother, will be played by Art
Nicklaus and Curt Bennett. The
loud, boisterous, drunken, poetic,
loving father, W. C. Cant, feat-
ures Doug Wright and Wayne
Sushak.
Others included in the large
cast are Patti Bourgault, Linda
Williams, Pete Neilsen, Frnak
Kuhr, Wendy Bolender, Steve
Evander, Sue Lemagie, Karen
Cole, Chris Elmlund, Caye Scheel,
Rite Nutt, Jim Erwin, Neff Mc
Clanahan, and Merridee Ander-
son. Completing the second cast
are: Coral Michaels, Joyce Pc-
well, Phil Barnet, Julie Archer,
Andrea Brown, Jana Barnett,
Viki Hess, and Mike tvis.
The entire production will be
under the direction of Dean Tar-
rach, with Assistant Director Mrs,
Diane Franehini and student di-
rectors Lynden Elmlund and
Andrea Brown, On the technical
staff are William Steinbaeher,
art director; Larry Nelson, stage
director; Francie Rice, wardrobe
mistress; Sherry Arkin and Vicki
Pierce, costuming; Chris Bevis
and Jody Engen, sound engi-
neers; Holly Scott and Jan Dlon,
make-up; Jim Erwin, properties
master, and his staff, Chris Mc-
Gee and Jane Keyser,
The author of the novel, "Look
Homeward, Angel", upon which
the play is based, is generally
recognized by critics as (me of
the few authentic geniuses of
American literature. A physical
giant of a man who died tragi-
cally young and at the height of
his creative powers, Thomas
Wolfe was a writer of tremen-
thus drive and power, sometimes
wordy, sometimes opinionated,
but never dull.
To quote Brooks Atkinson of the
Homeward, Angel" is a marvel-
otis play . . . a triumphant oc,
cession in every respect. The
scale is largely like Thomas
Wolfe. It raises the homely af-
fairs of an obscure middle-class
family to the level of vigorous
literature. It gives planetary sig-
nificance to little things."
"Look Homeward, Angel, will
be presented at the Shelton High
School auditorium at 8 p.m. Mar.
14 and 15.
