Some of Sweden's foremost ac- tors are in the cast. Foresll, one of Sweden's lead- ing playwrights, wrote the play called Flickan I Montreal (The Girl in Montreal) following a lengthy recent visit to Canada. It also has appeared in book form. The play of about one hour and 40 minutes, with elements of Music Hall-style music and ditties, was described by crifics as a general political allegory intended to show how power corrupts the powerful as well as the guiltless who are exploited |Soccer Lovers the broad. comedy about a! jcordons of mounted police.
