DEC 2 IS ANNOUNCED Transition From Night Life of Paris to Day-by-Day Dubuque Shown in Play Is the difference between the American and the continental really so marked? Can Paris ac tually "do something" to an aver age, complacent American woman to the extent that it brings out in her a heretofore undiscovered na ture and opens to her new and be witching worlds? Rachel Crothers, in her comedy drama, given by the University Players, "As Husbands Go," raises these questions, and finally, after keeping the audience in suspense for four scenes, answers in the negative.
