It has develop- ed several dark discolored areas. Can these be bleached out safely? By Joseph MacSween NEW YORK (CP)--Broadway theatre has become a "fun fair' for people seeking a gay time, says Douglas Campbell, the Scottish actor who now makes Canada his home. Campbell's words were, in a way, an epitaph for Paddy Chayefsky's Gideon which closed after a six - month run because of rough going at the box office despite critical tri- umph. Commercialism is killing Broadway theatre, said the age chad star, adding that he pes the same will not happen in Canada. "Although Canada docsn't have a large theatre, what has been started in Stratford, Ont., is a cultural event that can es- tablish a tradition for the whole country," he declared. "So far the United States has not been able to do this. In this sense, Canada is ahead. Srat- ford is viewed as an interna- tional event and people every- where know about it." Campbell's feeling is that salesmanship has brought to Broadway an attitude of car- nival so that, with isolated ex- ceptions, serious plays -- far more absorbing than the fluffy kind -- haven't got a chance. MONEY TALKS "The artists are not produc- ing what they want to create but what they think they can sell." Such things as party bookings tended toward disas- trous standards. Chayefsky also has spoken of Broadway's "'conomic futil ity," saying the famed street is "okay for musicals, but you just can't afford to put a legitimate, serious play on there any more." Campbell and his wife, Ann Casson will appear next in The Gondoliers, opening in Stratford |July 6. Tom, 10, one of their four children, will be a page in the same production. In Gideon, biblical story of a battle between the Hebrews and the Medianites, Campbeii per- CAMPBELL (LEFT) AND MARCH formed a rare Broadway tour! de force by switching from the title role to that of God after Frederic March left the play. "T was about five months in the play before I ascended into heaven," said Campbell as he wiped away makeup in his dressing room after a final per- formance. "No, you can be sure I have no urge to try to slip into the role of the Almighty away from the theatre. I'm one of his low- liest subjects." Campbell received critical ac- claim in both roles and he ad- mitted that this gave him -- in THE HOME WORKSHOP his first Broadway appearance --a considerable lift, but 'that doesn't mean I consider Broad- way the greatest thing since the invention of white bread." The system in which an actor performs the same part night after night seems wrong to Campbell, who prefers instead the idea of repertory theatre, in which roles vary 'and other members of the cast -- not only the stars -- have a chance to show their stuff.

In Theatre A company, for instance, a right to make up their own minds," he declared. As God, Campbell used his powerful voice with stirring ef- fect but critics found him a . }more patient and kindly Deity than that portrayed by March, who sometimes frightened old ladies. Campbell's switch from Gid- eon to God was amusingly ap- propriate in terms of the play, could start a Chayefsky reper- tory and alternate the author's three plays. "This would give the actors new experience and attract) varying audiences. Audiences could go to see what one man's view of life is. Shakespeare is the only one now getting the full treatment." Campbell moved to Stratford --now his home -- in 1953 with Tyrone Guthrie and Alec Guin ess to start the Shakespearean Festival and he subsequently founded the Canadian Players as actor - manager - director. MAY DIRECT After the forthcoming Strat- ford appearances, he may di- rect a play on Broadway next fall and he also will joi Guthrie in a new theatre project in Minneapolis -- presenting classical repertory. The red - naired actor ap- proaches theatre with obvious dedication but has some pun- gent opinions left over for other matters, 'including the ban-the bomb movement of which he is a vigorous supporter. "This is something we've brought on our own b loody heads, but there's no excuse for inflicting it on the kiddies and on future generations who have which ends with the character Gideon turning from belief in God to belief in man's right to aspire. After Gideon walks off wear- ing God's gold mantle, the an- gel of the lord muses: "Well, let him don my gold ephod, "I let him be proper God "Well, let him try it, any- ee How fo grow a better rose!

PAINT REMOVAL QUESTION: Door facings and baseboards in our house have about three coats of white paint on them. How can this be re- moved without a lot of cost? After it is taken off, how can this be painted and varnished over so that it has a shine on it? ANSWER: If you have an infra red lamp, hold it about 12 inches from surface of the paint, until the paint coating softens enough to be scraped. Or the following inexpensive paste remover can be used: Mix dry trisodium phosphate with twice as much fuller's earth or whiting and moisten with water.
