Dr. Newcomb’s ‘Shack’ Provides

Amateur Playwright Uses Structure as Hobby Center.

BY BEATRICE BURGAN Society Editor OMES a time in every man’s life when he wants to hide away from the ringing of telephone and

a lively household. Dr. John Ray Newcomb has built | himself a sanctum where he can be | a recluse or a genial host, as mood | dictates. The “Shack.” as he calls it, is a glorification of a pergola. He saw the possibility of enclosing the four brick posts for a hideaway. It is covered with flintcoat and one would never suspect that it isn't brick. Dr. Newcomb claims it to be the coolest spot in the city on a hot day and as. snug as one would want it on frosty evenings.

Quarters Are Compact

The Shack is anything but spacious, but its compactness and coziness make for solitude when Dr. Newcomb desires it, and privacy when he invites a friend over for an evening of philosophizing or ‘“yarning.” Many an evening after dark when passing cars are few, a steady taptap interrupts the silence. It's Dr. Newcomb at his typewriter, pounding out an act for a new play.

bies. He has his 200 odd books on

on shelves over his desk there. About 150 of them are neatly numbered, but Dr. Newcomb admits he got tired of playing librarian.

Other Hobbies Evidenced

Other reminders of Dr. Newcomb’s hobbies decorate the Shack. There are autographed pictures of George Somnes, former Civic Theater director; Katharine Cornell and Maude Fulton, playwright. Dr. Newcomb started a correspondence with Miss Fulton, author of “The Bat,” when he wrote to her regarding her oneact plays for The Players’ productions. Dr. Newcomb has been directing and acting in The Players’ performances for 25 years or more. He also has been a favorite in Civic Theater |

“The Bishop Misbehaves,” last season. At one of the play selecting committee meetings of The Players last winter, Dr. Newcomb offered a oneact manuscript, written he said, by a Chicago friend. It was selected for production and he appealed to the cast to put their best in it, because the author probably would come for its premiere. . The actors worked conscientiously to produce a play to please its author. The night of the performance Dr. Newcomb walked gloomingly backstage before the actors appeared. He told the stage hands that Mr. Burns had met with an accident and probably never would see his play. They promised not to

tell them the sorry news. They displayed deep concern and looked at each other gloomily until Dr. Newcomb added, “As a matter of facl Mr. Burns never existed except as a figment of my imagination. I am the author.” Piled high on a stand are the manuscripts of all the plays in which Dr. Newcomb has appeared and those he has written. Guesis become aware of another of Dr. Newcomb's hobbies when they are invited to his Shack. The walls are hung with pictures of the Maxinkuckee Yacht Club races which he has supervised for {ive years as fleet | commander. He and Col. George L. | Miller of the Culver Military Acad-
