Bridges Get The
Attention Of The
Freeway Builders
The status of the Nevada City segment of the
freeway was still uncertain this week although
work was continuing at what the state consid=
ered to be critical areas. Because of the dis=
location of the normal traffic flow created by
the work, the city considered completion of
bridges and access roads of the first priority.
Last week the first bridge, the Gold Flat over-=
crossing, was opened to traffic. These views
show scenes at all of the bridge sites.
TINKERTOYS and deck timbers go up for the
Banner Mountain Road bridge.

Work continues on the abutments for the Broad
Street Bridge.
A CRITIC OF ANY KIND, whether for concert, theater, or
television, is generally in the
unique position of reporting an
accident to an eyewitness, He
gives his opinion (usually influenced by personal prejudice
the wife's dispositing, or a lousy
lunch) of a specific program or
performance which has already
been viewed by the majority of
the review readers, Strange to
say, the spectators of the described events are prone to ace
cept the verdict of the professional critic without speculation as to the basis of his pro ar
con decision,
Some criticisms have attained
& certain amount of immorality
due to aptness of expression or
cutting cleverness, Examples of
these devamating gems which
have leveled some of our leading lads and ladies are to be
found sprinkled throughout the
mewspapers of the nation: “Aa
unfortunate thimg occurred last
night at the Hippedrome, The
Curtain went up.” And of a
chorus show: “The only thing I
haven t knocked in this production ase the chorus girls knees,
Nature anticipated me there. °
And in a similar vein: “The
ofces legs ia the show
tothe plane in the second act.”
Ofa Broadway show: “The
drama opened like a shotwhich unfogtunately missed the
author,” And of K, Hepburn,
fresh from triumphs in Hollywood: “She ran the gamut of
emotion from A to B.” After
a Jack Douglas vocal appeare
ance: “Silence, like a poultice,
came to heal the blows of
sound.” An orchestra review
ran: “Al Vann and his orchestra
returned to New York to open
at the New York Palace Theater.
WE wete ready, but THEY
WEREN ‘T!" Of an off-Broadway
production, the critic claimed:
"Last night's performance was
so bad the audience was calling
UP in front!” A disorganized
Latin American band was awarded the brief accolade: “Mucho
by Kimary
Messo!” While another writer
simply said: “Quoth the Raven -"
One of the original Jack Paar
programs was entitled, “Up to
Paar", and earned the short
comment: “Up to Paar isn't.”
And as a conclusion, an elaborate concert that laid the
biggest egg of the seasen:
“Opesation Omelette!”
