But If you are a matter of fact person, perhaps a movie fan, don't go because you will be dis appointed. Friday night the play dragged badly in the first act but picked up as the two scheming fathers, Roswell Wright and Ronald Cra ven, got on with their comedy scenes. In places it was finished and quite beautiful. Such a scene was the false abduction with mu sic and subdued lighting. J. Lyman Steed as Stratforel shone throughout the drama. His hearty laugh at hiB first entrance was typical of his robust, natural performance. Genevieve Thayer was pretty and graceful as the ro mantic Sylvette and Lawrence Brown satisfactory in his role as the lover, Perclnet. The direction by Lucille Tucker Paulus kept the action going and saved the rhym ing lines from dragging the en tire performance into dullness. A near capacity house greeted the Chemeketa Players' first night.
