Tiny Redhead Snares 'Puck' Role ’ By PAT KING Tiny Louise Cloustcn with her dancing blue eyes and saucy red hair captured the coveted role of Puck in the University Theater’s elaborate production of Shake speare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” to be presented tonight at 8:30, and will, no doubt, capture the entire audience as the mis ohievous sprite from Oberon’s fairy kingdom. As the lively Puck, Louise does a great deal of leaping and jump ing from one place to another in rhythm with the music. During rehearsals last week, to the horror of director Horace W. Robinson and cast, she sprained her ankle leaping from one high platform to the floor. ‘‘The doctor said that if I took it easy, I would be able to get around all right tonight,” she said hopefully. In spite of the accident,: she stoutly maintains, “Puck has been more fun to play than any part I've ever had.” A sophomore in drama, Louise has spent as much time behind scenes working on the stage crew as before the footlights. In fact, she is now working on the crew of this show as well as playing a major role. Last year she played the lead in the Chinese play, “The Yellow Jacket.” This year she has appeared in “Playboy of the West ern World” and “The Adding Ma chine.” Phi Beta Member Miss Clouston is a member of Phi Beta, women’s national music and dramatic honorary and lives at Susan Campbell hall. Speaking of the play, she com mented, “The entire cast is amazed at the bigness and magnificence of the whole show with dancers, mu sicians, and cast.

A high school training course has made him a far safer driver than those who learn the “hit or miss” way. All young drivers deserve that chance—without it they cause eleven times more fatal accidents than drivers in their forties. Many high schools now offer behind-the-wheel instruction. If there is no driver training course in your community, do the next best. Get instruction material through your school or police department. Start young drivers right—right from the start!
