Walden Boyle Said Outstanding Actor Of University Walden Boyle, who plays the title role in "Peer Gynt," elaborate musical drama to be presented Tuesday night, April 26, at Mc Arthur Court, is undoubtedly the University of Oregon's outstanding contribution to the professional stage.

After dropping out of school Boyle joined the Pasadena play house where at different times he acted as stage manager, directed and appeared in between 40 and 50 shows with such well-known names as Sylvia . Sidney, Gloria Stuart, Mischa Auer, Douglas Montgomery and Wayne Morris, In 1934 Boyle went with the famed Schubert producing organ ization,- again dividing his time between stage managing and act ing. He .appeared on Broadway with Lenore Ulric, Pola Negri, Guy Bates Post, Margot Grahame, Ed uardo Cianelil, Owen Davis, Jr., and others. Boyle returned to the university campus after two years in New York to complete his scholastic work. He was signed us a member of the faculty, as' instructor in drama, after hc received his diploma last June. i The Horace Robinson production of "Peer Gynt" is the second time Boyle has played in Henrik Is sen's play.
