To Play Crab,'Makes Hit In Role
Opening night for William Shake-
speare's "Two Gentlemen of Verona"
Wednesday in Lydia Mendelssohn
Theatre featured the debut of
Buttons, local canine juvenile, as
Crab.
Buttons, who has little stage tra-
dition behind him, to be sure, still is
regarded as something of a sensation
by Miss Sarah Pierce, his discoverer.
Buttons is the private pal of little
Mimi House, daughter of Mrs. Harold

carried off the role of Crab in last
summer's Repertory Players season
and who was recently struck down by
an automobile, culminated in the dis-
covery of Buttons, who it seems is
more than filling the role.
The devoted attentions of his little
mistress and the caprices of a veterin-
arian have adequately equipped the
young star for his initial appearance.
Buttons was clipped in an ultra-
modern fashion. e has tufts of hair
along each leg an a feathery tassel
at the end of his abbreviated tail.
His head is shaggy while the rest of
his body is sleek.
