Poor Drama Choice At Hayward High Fails To Shine
Last night at Hayward High School the drama department presented Smnkin Through, a period piece whose dialogue and plotting challenged the young cast. Jim Wright gave a tense Jeremias Wayne, Moonyeen Clare portrayed Moonyeen Clare with poise, and a strong supporting line included Julius Rodrigues, David Burke, and Christine Bril Ellen. Despite solid stagecraft and a dedicated crew, critics feel the production did not fully justify the talent invested.

Compromise Is Accepted on Tax Increase Bill
Washington report notes House Senate conference committee agreed on a new 4.681 billion tax bill with modest relief for low income taxpayers and a capital gains tax raise from 25 to 26 percent. The retroactive excess profits tax rate would start July 1, 1841, and first bracket increases affect those under $2,000 net income while most will face about a 11.72 percent rise. The measure preserves higher earners under 28,000 singles and 56,000 couples and yields small dollar differences across income levels, with examples showing single filers paying minor amounts more or less under the compromise.
