SPANISH TRAGEDY
IS GREAT SUCCESS
“La Malquerida” of Benavente
Called Biggest Achieve
ment of Company
Seldom have Guild Hall audiences
been so extravagant in their praise of
a production as they were with La Mal
querida, Benavente’s masterpiece which
drew a large house last night at its
second performance. The tragedy is a
large undertaking for a student group
but there is not a member of the cast
who has not put hard work, sympathy
and understanding int'o the interpreta
tion.
As the curtain goes up for the first
act, gaily clad senoritas appeal in sharp
contrast to the somber walls, the room
darkening with the aproaeh of eve
ning just as the words of Baimunda,
presaging sadness, are in contrast to the
promiscuous gossip of the neighbors.
The silent Acacia, daughter of Rai
munda, whose engagement the group
has gathered to celebrate, is a discon
certing note, suggesting tragedy again.
The entire play moves on to an in
evitable smashing conclusion, dragging
with it the characters who are real peo
ple, as long as the play lasts, and who
remain in our memory much longer than
the automatons of most plays.
From the first moment until the final
curtain Charlotte Banfield carries the
play in a most compelling and artistic
interpretation of the mother who finds
herself torn between husband and
daughter, loving both, and at moments
hating both. It is extremely doubtful
whether the students could have sup
plied without her aid a Baimunda who
could have approached her in finish.
Darrell Larsen scored the biggest
triumph he has to his credit in the dif
ficult role of Esteban, acting not too
much and not too little, and meriting
the enthusiastic praise of many wit
nesses of the play. Dorothy Hall in
the titlo role did some fine acting, the
last act being especially good in her
scenes.
The play demands much from the
audience because of its tenseness. And
yet there is not a place whore it be
comes common melodrama. Tho lines
as well as the plot technique are good,
the very naturalness of them command
ing.
Tonight will be tho last performance
of this play which may rightly be call
ed the groatost dramatic success of the
University company.

Bobort W. Buhl, Modford Mail-Tri
buno, speaking on “Newspaper Respon

decadence in tho editorials of this state.
He believes that editors must bo fear
less in their expression on all current
matters, and reproached tho editors for
not taking definite stands on the Ku

In the trade and class journalism
section of the conference which met
