Angel" ], The award-winning Shelton ness, but also poetic idealism Vicki Buckley, Karen Burgess New York Times "... "Look 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 • Jack Treptow, Bremerton, pleaded not guilty to a charge of second degree assault when he appeared in Mason  County Su- 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 the week of March 17 on charges of grand larceny by cheek, as- sault, robbery, escape and taking a motor vehicle without permis- sion of the owner. He was arrested on the check charge last summer. The other charges are the result of a jail break he and John H. Jcdmn made Iast September. , /i it'! 7ir Ly = i: lope i !' e is?"i Lent ch ! du CAPITAL SAVINGS SETS NEW RECORDS • New records in assets, sav- ings, dividends and total loans were attained by Capital Savings and Loan Association in 1968, its annual report shows. :Issued by H.

"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. Juveniles Are Arrested Here • Three juveniles, two girls, one 14 and IS from Port Gamble and a boy, 16, from Bremerton, were arrested by Mason County Sher- iff's deputies at a cabin at Tim- berlake.
