"Yellow Jacket" Has All-Star Cast; Commencement Play Answers Call Florence McNerney Addison Brockman Loletsi Jaeger By CAKOI, HUKLBURT H At last we have what the pub lic craves: a campus production with an all-star cast. The commencement play, “The Yellow Jacket,” has a cast in which not only the leads but also the minor characters have played to University audiences time and time again. Florence McNerney, facile art ist that she is, takes another kind of part in that of the nurse to Plum Blossom, the heroine. She is a dear, sweet kind of Chinese nurse, and very, very conventional minded. Loleta Jaeger abandons her usual role of “the nice woman” and fairy tale princesses to take the role of Chow Wan in the well known love boat scene, where she lowers her fan to show the hero her eyes and the alluring contours of her lovely cheeks in attempting to lure him to paths of Pleasure and Ruin. Addison Brockman usually plays not only the part of a fine up righteous man. but also that of a thoroughly masculine and vigorous character. Now he has changed. Pie takes the part of the Daffodil, the chief villain and rival of the hero for name, fortune, honor, and heroine. He is an aesthetic, charming, graceful villain, pitting b r a i n against brawn. He is the kind who plots the downfall of the hero in the midst of his mulberry bushes, smelling of the blossoms from time to time to refresh him n 'a Ta/ttotitit?
