The final score was 36 31. Gregory's stars included players from Columbia, New rk Uni verstiy and Fordhani varsity teams mostly New Yotl boys who "had played with George at DeWitt Clinton High School.

Despite the fact that thev had not played together as a team before, this season, thev showed more team work than the Lincoln Lions, The first part of the game was a nip and tuck affair, with one side taking the lead for a few minutes, and then the other pass ing them: Toward the end of the first' half the superior passing game of the Stars, and their more accurate shooting began to show results, and they ended the first xiail Willi A jivclJuuiL ii.au. Lincoln made a valiant effort to overcome the lead during th last few minutes of the game, and made several pretty long shots, but these were offset by similar shots by Gregory and others on his team. Just before the game started, Gregory introduced Captain Lou Bender of the 1932 Columbia Var sti'y five. There were also several other Columbia basketball players prseent who were unable to play for fear their amateur standing would be affected.

ROSE McCLENDON mmmmmmmmmw mm turn i 1 1 i I Who will direct the "Rider of Dreams" by Ridgely Torrence, one of three plays to be given by the Harlem Experimental Theatre, on Friday, April 24th, at St. Philip's Parish House. Three Years With the Harlem Experimental Theatre Its Purpose BY REGINA ANDREWS In February. 1928. a small rrnun of colored folk in Harlem, inspired oy uorothy K.

rcterson, and interested in the development of Negro drama, came together in the basement of the 135th street li brary to discuss the possibilities! or a permanent Litt Theatre for Negroes. We genuinely felt that the need justified the end; that is, the need of some 200,000 colored people without an art or repertory theatre. We knew tbey could not all be Charles Gilpins, Paul Robesons or Rose McClendons, but we were thinking seriously of the untrained boy or girl who had felt 4he dramatic urge in high school or college, and who could go no further because of lack of opportunity. We were thinking of the amateur playwright who could find no market for his plays, cither because they were fitted for the small stage, otdid not have Broadway possibilities. We were thinking of the amateur stagecraftsinen without a stage to ply "his craft or develop his art.

We admit that after three years we have not succeeded in developing all of these things, but a few of us, too fascinated with the possibilities' of the idea to give it up, despite many handicaps, such as a lack of a permanent meeting place, lack of tools, and lack of finance, have remained together confident of ultimate success. We could not have gone on, however, without the loyal support of the some twenty or more young people who have been working with us, com ing to rehearsals night after night. despite a hard day work or in clement weather. We are now working under the name of the Harlem Experimental Theatre, and our meeting place is the auditorium of Saint Philip's Parish House, 215 West 133rd street. Up to the present time, we have given some eight or ten one act plays, with each production encouraged by a larger and more enthusiastic audience Among the plays already produced are I'lumes, by Georgia Douglas Johnson, directed by Harold Jackman; "A Sunny Mornine" bv the Brothers Quinters, directed by uorothy t'eterson; "lhe Duchess Savs Her Prayers," by Canficld: "The No 'Count Boy," by Green, and "The Little Stone House." by caidcron, directed by Helen Brooks; "Get Thee Behind me Satan," written and directed by Robert Dorsey; and the "Prodigal Son," by Kemp, directed by Rob ert JJunmore.

At present our official directors Tare Rose McClendon. "of pnrsrv and Robert Dunmore, of Northwestern L'niversity School of Speech and Dramatics. Others officially responsible for the work of the group, are Regtna Andrews, executive secretary; Louise Logan, corresponding secretary; Robert Elzy, treasurer, and Benjamin Locke, business manager. Eunice Hunton Carter serves as chairman of our membership committee, art 1 Irene Malvin as director of pub licity. Friends of the group who con sented to serve in an advisory ca pacity, teeling that we had more than a song to sing or a story to tell, are Mrs.

Lillian Alexander, Mrs. Etnah Rochon Boutte, Dr. W. E. Burehardt DiiBois.

Mrs. Jessie Fausct Harris. Dr. Alain Locke, Josiah Marvell. Miss Hannah Mo riata, Mrs.

John E. Nail, Miss Mary White Ovington, Mrs. Ruth I ogan Roberts and Mrs. Uiga Schapiro. We have not limited ourselves to the production of Negro plays, feeling that our people are just as capable of depicting the spontan ity, tragedy, and happiness of life as we see it and feel it Negro life as we live it.

We do now ever, wish to develop a Negro Art Theatre, and what our program of the future will be, remains to be seen. Just what is the place of the Little Theatre in the development ot jviegro certainly we are more free to experiment, and are less hampered and bound than the professional stage. I he opportunity which the Little Theatre offers the. Negro youth of today is invaluable, and it certainly tends to insure a brighter future for the Negro actor. What are our plans for the future? First: To establish a permanent Little Theatre in Harlem.

Second: Tt make a definite contribution to Negro and Literature by encouraging the writing of plays and producing them. Third: To train and develop talent for the stage. In order to accomplish thi program, we earnestly invite the in THEATRICAL JOTTINGS 1 BY GUS SMITH Arthur Hopkins is reoorted to have signed Paul Robeson for the title role of Black April" for next season.
