IATURA0Y, APRIL , IMS. THE MORNING ASTOR1AN, ASTORIA, OREGON. ULSTER DRAWSWELL High School Students Present a Clever Farce Comedy. HOUSE PACKED TO THE DOOR Large and Reprsntativ Audino Witnesses Performance of Cleverly CanatruetMl Play. Entitled "Th 1 Ulster," Givn Deserved Applause. Fishers' opera house held a large audience last evening, to witness the presentation of a farce comedy In three acts, entitled "The Ulster," given by high school students for the benefit of aehool athletics. Sixteen students and one of the teachers were In the cast the teacher. Miss Grace Moore, sub stitutlng fogr Miss Emma. Sriedd, a student who had been compelled to miss a number of the rehearsals ow ing to unforeseen circumstances. It fell to Miss Moore's lot to act the leading lady, as Mrs. Flipper, In which role she certainly did her best. In fact, a finished actress could not have Improved much upon the portrayal of this character. Miss Wlnnifred Hlg gins, who as second lead, assumed the role of Sadie, Flipper's niece, deserves much credit Miss Grace Magladry was a clever Ingenne as Agnes Patsy, jnaid at Flipper's, was a good part well taken care of by Miss Mary Greg ory. Few strangers In the audience would have believed that the elderly matron, represented by Miss Amy Ranells in Mrs. Barton, could be a senior student of a high school. The minor female roles were In the hands of Miss Jeannette Peterson and Miss Ruby Bremner, who helped to make an attractive whole. ; R. Emerson certainly made an ex cellent leading itian as Valentine Flip per, while Lawrence Rogers as his son Geoffry proved a good second lead. Of the other roles that of Pror. Barton, represented by Joseph Leahy, deserves special mention owing to the careful presentation of the deaf feature. The embarrassed Flipper, Jr., was a diffi cult role, advantageously port raged by Ivon GullUume. , Of the minor male roles, Otto Utiinger took off John, the footman, very well, aa did Henry Sktbbe with the cabman. The other members of the cast were Messrs. Lester Lounsberry and Frank Parker. One feature of the occasion was the excellent rendition of the Instrumental program by the high school orchestra, consisting of Miss Gayle Roberts, first violin; Thorburn Ross, cello; Miss Margaret Taylor, piano and the MHses L. Parker, Ruby Hammerstrom and Magna Carlson. The performance will be repeated to night and will no doubt be witnessed by another large audience. unusual merit " Following Is the pro gram arranged: Ptado duet Misses Maud Rosa an Mary Adair; vocal solo, Mr. F.dwim Miller; Instrumental solo.
