OKLAHOMA SOON
IN SACRAMENTO
SACRAMENTO: When the
Theatre-Guild’s national company
of Oklahoma comes to Sacramento
July 12 to 17, it will be playing
on its; first night, the 2,2092nd
performance of the famous musical
This is' a record that IS a
record, and just one of the nearly
100 records held by this company
and the one at the St. James
Theatre, New York, which just
closed two°weeks ago. No other
travelling stage attraction of any
kind ever before in any country
has been played for anywhere
nearly that many performances
Without a break.
The national company of ‘‘Oklahoma’”’, has toured and played,
without vacation or other layoff,
ever since its opening in New
Haven, Conn. on October 14, 1943,
around the calendar solidly
more than four and one-half years
from one end of the country and
back again. And it is booked for
continuous playing: throughout the
approaching summer and on until
June 20, 1950, nearly seven years
in all—which will leave all rivals
so far behind that they cannot be
seen for Oklahoma dust.
Reservations for the Sacramento run, six evening performances and Wednesday and Saturday matinees, are being made now
at the Ware-Hazelton box office,
by mail. Orders for tickets must
be accompanied by a check and
stamped, self-addressed envelope.

NEWS FROM
THE RIDGE
BY ALICE HILL
NORTH SANJUAN: June has
been a month of picnic, parties
and birthdays. Last Saturday
Johnny Phelan celebrated his 7th
birthday in the ‘traditional style
with his school chums. surprising
him in the afternoon. The gifts
were opened with exclamations
by all. followed by quantities of
cake, ice cream and punch.
Saturday evening, members of
the Community Church gathered
at the Hill home to honor Mrs.
Lena Dahneke on her 79th birthday. She is our oldest native
North San Juan resident.
Recent. visitors to North San
Juan have been: M. A. Bryan's
{ sister, Mrs. George Osmeyer and
her husband of Greenville.
Mr. and Mrs. Atchinson, Jr., and
daughter and Mr. and Mrs. Bubble
have been visiting their parents
at Happy Acres on Highway 49.
Other visitors there have been
Mrs. Mitchell, motherof Mrs.
Atchinson, Jr., and Mr. and Mrs:
Liskey.
Robert Rice of Berkeley is, visiting his mother,-“Mrs. Leda
Wright.
Week-end guests ofthe Charles
Hammans were relatives from
Greeley. —and Redding, the Ted
Hepworths and the David Wallera
respectively.
Mrs. Moulton’s niece, Mrs.
Louis Larsen and husband of Evof the Moultons at French Corral.
They were thrilled with the beauty
‘of our country, and especially the
. Ridge.
(I'll let Pop write about the
picnic last Sunday. It sure was a
lot of fun.)
Another of those memorable
gatherings for which French Corral is noted was held under the
pines that rim the great hydraulic
pit at the point opposite the Kate
Sullivan place. The day was June
13th and a more beautiful Sunday
was never chosen for a gathering
of .friends. A flawless sky and a
carpet of wild flowers nodding in
a gentle breeze, tables laden with
the good things those housewives
are so noted for, and the friendly
welcome all received was a heartwarming experience.
Frank Stuart and wife furnished instrumental music during the
feast and accompanied the group
singing .

From where I sit . 4 Joe Marsh
The ex-Gl’s of-our town-entertained their wives the other night
at one of their “feeds” of hamburger sandwiches and ice cold
beer. (The girls had hinted that
they’d like to see what went on
when their husbands got together!)
Being wary, the boys provided
chicken sandwiches and cake and
cider—for those wives who might
have other tastes. But though they
were grateful for the choice, most
of the wives agreed that ham-.
burger sandwiches and beer were
a mighty pleasant. combination.
They let the. Wives in!
After-the—“feed”-the—-husbands,
took their wives on at a game of
darts, and later they played “Indications.” The party broke up
around ten, with the boys agreeing
that it was mighty success/ul.
From where I sit, it’s this companionship among young couples
today, and their moderation in a
sensible beverage like beer, that’s
won the younger generation-such
a wholesome reputation.
