The art of making inexpensive homemade gift wrapping paper, Christmas cards and gift
tags was taught by Dianna Shaffer, Nov. 16 at the College. Shaffer is shown above making
Christmas cards by using an embroidery hoop and cotton mesh to make a silk-screen. The
design is made by placing sticky backed paper and fingernail polish on certain areas of the
silk-screen. The screen is then placed on a piece of paper the size of a card. With tempra
paint squeezed through the screen, the designed impression stays on the paper.
Theatre plans homecoming for Red
The Clackamas Community College theatre
department is presenting the drama "When
You Cornin' Back, Red Ryder?" on Dec. 1,
2 and 3 at 8 p.m. and Dec. 4 at 2:30 p.m.
"I'm really pleased the theatre depart­
ment is producing a play of such literary
merit," said Jack Shields, director.
The play won the Obie Award for Dis­
tinguished Playwriting and the Outer Critics'
Circle Award as best playwrite in the 1973-
74 off-Broadway theatre season.
"Because the play is representative of a
new wave of hard realistic drama, some
people might be offended by the language.
That's why the play is intended for mature
audiences and parental guidance is suggested,"
Shields said. "The business of language in
this case, and I think in most cases, has to do
with character development rather than aud­
ience shock value. Without this language, the
character in the situation and in most cases
would not be believable."
The cast includes Martin Brother, a pro­
fessional actor; Deborah Moe; Pauline Darl­
ing; Richard McCoy; Rick Arnold; Donna
DeLay; Roby Robinson and John Gould.
"Red Ryder says something about the
times we live in, about the change that has
affected people," Woods said. "It shows
what happens to people who can't face
reality and can't cope when dreams don't
meet reality."
Teddy, played by Woods, is a very ex­
plosive character and he lives very close to
the edge. He tries to get people to come to
the edge with him and sometimes they fall
off. He falls sometimes, but he always has a
rope to pull himself back up with. He forces
other people to realize what's going on in
their heads by violent means, according to
Woods.
"The play is about what happens to nor­
mal people in abnormal circumstances and
what their reactions are to the out of the or­
dinary," Woods said.
Teddy is intelligent, but is a hippie. He's
crazy. Red, played by Brother, is like a young
Teddy. Red knows he can do the same thing
that Teddy has done. Although Red is fasc­
inated, he is also scared by Teddy. There are
times in the play when Teddy abuses Red,
according to McCoy. Ted wants to get out of
New Mexico because there is nothing to do.
The nickname Red came from his parents,
and not necessarily from the fact that he had
red hair. He violently dislikes being called his
real name, Stephen.
"Angel, played by Darling, is young,
naive and inexperienced. She is motherly and
does a lot of assuming," said Darling, "She
loves Red and tries to protect him from
Teddy. She's insecure about herself because
of her weight. She wants to go places, but
never has."
Admission for the play is $2.50 for adults,
$1.50 for all students, and no charge to
senior citizens with reservations. For more
