es 4—Nevada City-Grass Valley Nugget, dune 22, 1948 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. —% Posse-ettes Hold First Summer Dance “..

(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.
