3 PUIS APPRECIATED
Acting of Dramatic Interpreta
tion Class Students
“Gets Over.”
Attendance of Last Night’s Per
formance Less Pleasing Than
Character of Production.
Attendance far less than the pleasing
character of the productions warranted
greeted Prof. A. F. Reddie’s students in
dramatic interpretation in Guild hall,
Friday night, when three one-act plays
were staged. The work of the actors was
thoroughly appreciated by those present,
who are recommending the plays warmly
to their friends for this evening. New
laurels were won by the members of the
three casts who put on “Neighbors,” by
Zona Gale; “The Game,” by Louise Bry
ant (U. of O., ’08),*and Charles Reade’s
“Nance Oldfield."
The first was decidedly meant to bring
a laugh from the audience, and it “got
by” with colors flying. Looking into the
domestic scene of "Mis’ Abel's” kitchen,
the contributors to the Red Cross were
admitted into the joys of a small town
neighborhood gossip bee. Helen Bracht,
as Miss Abel, upheld her usual high stan
dard of work. She certainly didn’t look
as though she would ever be just “the
fly-leaf of things,” as she declared her
husband once thought she should be—
especially so from the way she wielded
her flatiron. Mary Alice Hill also de
serves mention for her interpretation of
“Gran’ma.” In fact, everyone has a share
I of applause coming, the only weak spot
being the somewhat unconvincing
love scenes between the two younger
members of the group.
The second play was allegorical, por

Beginning Second Patriotic Series “Captain Courageous”
A reading prelude, “The Courage of the Commonplace”, a Yale
Tap-Day Story will be given by Miss Williamson.
A Double Musical Number
Every one whether in campus groups or not is heartily invited
traying the game in which Life and
Death play for the souls of mortals.
Both Youth and The Girl come to offer
themselves to Death, only to be stopped
by Life. Then the dice are shaken for
“the game must he played”—it is the law
Life wins in both cases, and Youth and
The Girl find love and happiness again.
There was little fault to be found with
any of the characters, each one seeming
to have a grasp, of his part, but the ac
tion was a little slow.
As is often the case, the best was re
served for the last. “Nance Oldfield” was
full of life and was thoroughly enjoyable.
[ This was doubtless due largely to the
fineness with which Miss Banfield and
Professor Ileddie portrayed the leading
roles. Fine opportunity was given them
to show their skill, in the parts of an
actress and a lawyer) respectively, and
the results were all that could be asked.
Robert McNary, as the poet son of the
lawyer, enamoured with Nance, should
also have his name near the top, as he
did much toward the success of the play.
The performance is to be repented to
night, and should play to a crowded
house, as it is well worth the price of
admission.
Howard Annett, of the school of music,
furnished the music.
The downtown ticket advance sale up
to Saturday morning amounted to $32.50
for both performances. The sale was
directed by Bernice Lucas, assisted by
Dorothy Parsons, Elsie Fitzmauriee,
Eugenia Deming, Jessie Garner and
Mary Warrack.
