Roberta Quigley to Play
Trouble-making Vamp
Drama Major Started Footlight Career
In Collegiate Roles While in High School
As Joanna, the vamp of “Dear Brutus,” Roberta Quigley
plays a willowy sort of clinging vine. She further describes
Joanna as “the sweet little innocent type on the surface but
she’s the cause of many a headache in the play.”'
A junior drama major, Roberta has had experience in Uni
versity productions of “The Corn Is Green” and “The Skin of
vui acccijl. one appearea mi
college plays while she was still |
attending University high school in
Eugene and also played in the
Very Little Theater production of
“Kiss and Tell.”
Valley Resident
She lived in Albany and Port
land before moving to Eugene
seven years ago.
Her comment on “Dear Brutus”:
“It’s fun to do because it seems to
touch on universal human nature.
It makes you stop and think about
yourself, too.”
According to Roberta, “Dear
Brutus” is Barrie’s satire on human
life touching on the theme, “it
stakes all kinds of people to make
up a world.”
Can’t Resist
“Even though rehearsals do take
lots of time, work, loss of sleep
and social life, we just keep going
back for more,” she continued.
Roberta’s ambitions are in the
field of radio where she would like
to work on the production end.
“The stage is my real goal I guess,”
she added, “but I realize that it’s
pretty tough to crack.”

Three ATOs
Not So Jolly
Blaming their illness on the
house manager, three prominent
ATOs, Ed Allen, Jim Morrell, and
Pete Miller, landed in the pill pal
ace yesterday morning suffering
from stomach disorders. Claiming
to have the most unique and no
torious room in the infirmary, the
men of Ward 9 are more concerned
with inanimate objects than their
stomachs. They are weeping for
lack of visitors, complaining about
the 6 ft. beds to fit 6 ft. 3 torsos,
and insist that they are suffering
more than the 40 other ATOs.
Taus With Scholar
Ward 9 holds three ATOs and
one scholar, Bob Robinson, who
succeeded in having the only visit
or Wednesday afternoon. They say
one scholar, because they claim to
have politicians, athletes, lovers,
and alcoholics in their ward, and
didn’t want the reader to be con
fused.
Trying to trace the cause of
their illness, they have narrowed
the field down to the soap on the
dishes, the dog that died the night
before, Fred Beckwith, or the Em
erald caption, “ATO Sweetheart
and ATO to Star in Dear Brutus.”
Boys W'ant Chow
Poached eggs with tea (that is!)
went over big with the boys, but
food is more what they want. In
parting the boys requested that
we tell the readers they are not
If
"goofing,” but are really intent on
getting well.
Others whom the nurses are hav
ing less trouble with are: June
Clayton, Pat Percival, Ruby Mat
thews, Barbara Weisz, Vivian Val
lad, Gloria Stannard, Selma Syme,
Barbara Kvern, Wally Heider,
James Kolts, and Herbert Leonnig.
