Practically every seat was filled ii\ the big tent on Jackson street Thursday night, when the Redpath Chaijitaqua presnted the metropoli tan comedy success, “Give and Take.” From every angle the pro duction was a winner.

Although every performer seemed a favorite with the audi ence, the work of William Frienu as John Bauer, head of the “K. O. Brand Cannery,” and Milton Boyle as Albert Gruger, factory foreman was especially good. “Give and Take” concerns the trials of the elderly owner of a Cal ifornia canning factory who reach es a crisis in his affairs when Ibis son, just home from college, and giver, free rein in the factory in troduces ‘modern” business meth ods of organization. Even the old foreman, loyal to the owner since the days when both of them started in business with a huckster’s wagor joins the “revolutionists.” The new regime forces some nearly disas trous situations, until most unex pected, with roamnce, pathos and comedy intermingling bring about a happy situation for all. The very capable cast appearing here Thursday night included: Wil liam Friend as John Bauer, Rus sell Brice as Jack Bauer, Milton Boyle as Albert Kruger, Peggy Bo land as Marion Kruger, Allen Lee as Thomas Craig, James P. Hous ton as Daniel Drum.
