West Yarmouth
¦me oia sturbrtdge Village, a
living museum of Yankee arts and
crafts, WBB opened to the public
for Its fourth successive season on
Sunday, May 15.
Highlighting the opening cere-
monies were the Village Meeting
House, formerly the historic Fisk-
dale Baptist Church. Dr. Thomas
Sherrard ftoy, pastor of the First
Baptist Church of Worcester,
preached on the spiritual heritage
of New England.
TUe Old Village, which is to New
England what Williamsburg 1B to
the South, is located on V. S. Route
20, midway between Springfield aSid
Worcester. Over 30 buildings in a
500-acre tract of meadow and wood-
land, wisely and painstakingly re-
create a New England tt/wn of the
early 1800's.
A non-profit, educational institu-
tion , the Old Village la dedicated
to showing how the people lived
and worked in an era when handi-
work was the sole means of pro-
duction. The buildings house a va-
riety of displays and collections
ranging from guns and glass to
toys and coaches.
Master craftsmen of the period,
such as the blacksmith, cabinet
maker, printer and miller can be
seen at work. In addition, the Vil-
lage offers opportunity for handi-
craft students to work with master
craftsmen. The classes stress teach-
ing in design, marketing, and work-
manship.
The Village came into being as
the result of a Southbrldge family's
interest in New England's past.
The genesis was Albert B. Wells'
collection of Yankee antiques, and
J. Cheney Wells' collection o£ early
American clocks and glass paper-
weights.
A variety of events has been
scheduled for the Village during
the summer. Saturday, June 18,
will be Old Time Post Office Day.
Starting July 9, Life Magazine's
Photographic Exhibit, "Houses
U. S. A.," will be on view for the
month . July 17 has been set apart
as Shoemaker's Day, and on Satur-
day, July 23, the Village willgbe
visited by the Veteran MotorXar
Club.
Among the features to come later
are a talk on the Indians of New
England, an exhibit of fine needle-
work, a photographic exhibit of
type designers, a demonstration of
hand book binding, and lectures on
18th Century New England.
This unique cultural project is
open daily from May 15 through
October 31. Admission hours are
from 10 a.m. on weekdays, Sunday s
and holidays. Trained hostesses
are on duty at all the principal
buildings to answer questions and"
explain exhibits. Special arrange-
ments are made for organization
and group tours, and also for school
children.
Trust in the Lord with all thine
heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding. In all thy ways ac-

rect they paths.—Proverbs 3:5, 6.

A party of four—Mr. and Mrs.
Warren Goodwin and Fred Robin-
son of West Hyannlsport , and Clay-
ton Ryan of Dedham—left Hyannis
Sunday morning In a 10-foot ply-
wood skiff for a fishing trip and
to retrieve a skiff at Great Island,
owned by Fred Robinson,
Conditions were against them at
the start—currents, a northeast
wind , and the size of the boat, The
party was not seen or heard from
again.
A search by plane «nd boat re-
vealed Sunday night the overturned
skiff within half a mile of Great
Island and about two miles from the
starting point. Captain Nelson Mar-
chant of HyanniBport made the dis-
covery. Warren Goodwin's hunting
cap was found in the skiff.
Although hope was slim for the
lives of the four, search continued,
ulso dragging operations near the
Hyannis breakwater, Police, Coast
Guard , and friends and relatives
have joined in the search.
Since Sunday, the oars have
come ashore at Cralgvllle Beach
and were found by Patrolman Mau-
rice Hinckley, Jr. And this morn-
ing police report rags from the boat
have been picked up on Cralgvllle
Beach.
The police believe that the bod-
ies have either been carried a great
distance away by the strong cur-
rents or are entangled in submerged
rocks off Great Island.
Since writing the above earlier
this morning, the body of one ©t
the party has been recovered on
the beach at Great Island, that of
Warren Goodwin, 29. It was found
by his father, Harold Goodwin , 59,
of Norwood.

BIRTHS
Richard Aldrich announces the
signing ot Signe Hasso to appear
at the Cape Playhouse in Dennis
the week of July 4. The young
Swedish actress will star in the ex-
gcltlng psychological melodrama by
Frank Vosper, LOVE FROM A
STRANGER. John Newland will
play opposite her, portraying the
role of the charming murderer.
This will mark Miss Hasso's first
appearance on Cape Cod. Although
she has been In this country for al-
most ten years, Hollywood has been
monopolizing her talents .Audiences
will remember her in THE HOUSE
ON 92ND STREET, THE STORY
OF DR. WASSELL, A DOUBLE
LIFE, and other films. Her most
recent picture Is IMAGINATION ,
the Kanin production starring Ron-
ald Colman and Miss Hasso.
Since Miss Hasso was the reign-
ing actress of Sweden before com-
ing to this country, it is difficult to
keep her from her first love, the
stage. In the role of Cecily Har-
rington in LOVE FROM A
STRANGER, she has the oppor-
tunity to display her natural talent
and beauty, in her IlrBt films here,
