Riser, head of the extension division library announced this week. The plays are edited by Arch Ob oler and they are designed to wake up Americans. They concern the United States and the war, but they are no war play in the stfict sense of the word. They are'not about front line fighting and dive bombing and commando raids. They are .about people at home, people like ourselves who are proud of our country. They were published by the Asso ciation for Education by Radio, which was organized in the national de fens days of 1941. Form( dependents' Officer I . who with their dates will lead th4 V.
