Also next Thursday will be a recital by Alyne Dumas Lee, soprano, accompanied by Paul Fidlar, at 8 p, m. in Crispus Attucks High School suditortum, . ¢ o *
THE CIVIC'S “Room Service” Is a comedy of ups and downs in Broadway theatrical life. It concerns a producer in tough straits, living on credit and trying to find both a script and an angel.

| Allen Boretz comedy will include: Adolf Kerber, Bernard Bloom, Harry Latham Jr. William H. Cook, Robert Murray, Esther Calderon, Robert Hollander, Ann Resor, Paul McNamara, Earl
