Nora Boatwright, both of Baird, accompanied their mother home and will remain for an ex tended stay. the intruder and went on with the Play- Although Director Paul Moore irst presentation of the 1940-41 season seemed draggy at first, the cast quickly built up a tingly suspense with realistic perform ances. Carolyn Cramer as Olivia Gra- yne, Mrs. Bramson's restless niece, shared applause with Pederson and Mrs. Downs.

Carmen Mar tin did a fine job as Mrs. Terence, the cook-housekeeper, and Betty Jane Gragg was excellent as the whimpering maid, Dora Fancoe. Thomas B. Sammons Jr. handled a difficult part well as Hubert Laurie.

Olivia suitor, and A. C. Statham, as Inspector Belsize of Scotland Yard, provided an authentic touch with his English accent. Director Moore was to have ap peared in a prologue as the lord chief Justice of the court of criminal appeals, but Mr. Moore apparently decided to dispense with this bit of preamble, since it was noticeably absent.

Lights Are Effective The entire action took place in Mrs. Bramson's bungalo in Essex, good lighting effects helping to build up a gloomy, foreboding at mosphere. Mrs. Bramson, rich and can tankerous old widow who is forever complaining ab6ut her physk cal ailments, rules the household with a dictatorial hand until Dan ny appears, flattering his way into her affections. Olivia, the Intellectual, suspects from the start Danny has murdered a woman whose headless body is louna on ti Bramson place, but her resentment turns to love.

A leather hatbox which Olivia, the two servants and the audience believes contains the head, figures prominently in the play, although it is never opened. You could tell by the way the women in the audience shuddered, however, that they were certain the head did repose there. J. W. G.

September Tax Collections Good EDINBURG County Tax Col lector Clay Everhard announced today that September, 1940, tax collections approximated $35,000, which he declared was a good fig ure for that particular month. "The September payments for delinquent taxes were from small taxpayers," Everhard said, "and were very good when you consider that an average of over $1,000 a month was collected." Everhard said he expected Oct ober collections on delinquencies to be greater than September because several large payments have been received, including $1,700 from the Western Union Telegraph Company and $4,900 from tne uin company.

The intensified daylight assault was apparently Adolf Hitler's an swer to a double-barreled night attack by RAP bomoers over Ber lni, which underwent two alarms with a reported toll of one killed 12 wounded.

Foes Trade Blows Nazi authorities said a number of dwellings and a hospital were damaged in the German capita. but that a furious concentration of anti-aircraft fire brought down three RAF raiders in flames "en route to Berlin" and drove off others before they could reach the capital. The British air ministry said the RAF "effectively bombed" several "important military objectives" in Berlin and set great fires at the German-held port of Le Havre, on the French coast. Early this afternoon, British long-range guns posted on the Dover coast opened fire, hurtling shells across the 22-mile-wide strait of Dover. Nazis angrily charged that apartment houses were the principal targets of RAF raiders in Berlin, and they acknowledged that many Berlin residents were being removed from the bombed areas today either because their homes had been destroyed or because of danger from unexploded bombs.

In Southeast Europe heralded scene of the next major conflagration Britain was reported heavily strengthening her defense of Egypt.

UP) Marked Increase in the intensity of the Nazi on- slaught on London was indicat ed by the official German an nouncement late this afternoon that German warplanes had shot down 31 British planes over the London area today.

German officials reiterated their claim that the British fliers were seeking to avoid combat, but ad mitted that five German raiders were missing. The announcement said obser vation pilots returning from flights over London confirmed previous belief that huge fires seen last night came from explos ions of several gas tanks in Ken sington. Raids just off England's shores by little Nazi torpedo boats high lighted a chronicle of naval sue cesses reported by the German High Command. Although British bombers gave Berlin two air raid alarms during the night and crossed paths with Nazi fliers making heavy raids on Britain, the communique stressed Germany's war at sea. Carrying the naval fight to the British Channel coast, it said torpedo boat units "a few days ago" destroyed two British submarine chasers, two merchant ships and took" 40 Britons prisoner.

Four other larger merchantmen were reported sunk by submarine attack and a fifth severely damaged. One submarine, the communique said, accounted for two tankers totalling 20,000 tons, another sank the British merchantman Devonshire (listed in Lloyd's register as an vessel) and a third sank a ship. Success of British airmen in raids on the French port of Le Havre and in The Netherlands was admitted. The high command said "destruction caused by Brit ish bombs in the past few days were especially heavy" and "part of the civil population is without shelter." (Amsterdam, site of the Fokker airplane works, recently has had repeated visits from Brit ish bombers.)

When he started to compile and write his book it was not from the gourmand's point of view, nor the epicurean's either, but as Mr. Hines puts it, "the result of a recreational impulse to do something to play a new game that would in-jigue ray wife and give me her companionship in my hours of 'relaxation from a strenuous and exacting business." That in itself would instantly make the book something of a treasure, especially if you are planning a vacation or have to travel for business.

But to write a book as a result of a game to intrigue your wife as she accompanied you while relaxing from your business is supreme proof that the book is sincere. Mr. Hines plainly states that there is no advertising accepted, and not one cent has been paid by any of the restaurants and inns listed to get their names in the book. As this would defeat the purpose ft the book and the follower thereof would lose confidence In it. In the Introduction to his book Mr.
