Professional Excellence Attained by
Amateurs Was More Than Inter
esting From Start 'to Finish, and
the Large Audience Was Greatly
Pleased The Cast Had Some Very
Strong Members.
The Frazcr was well filled Inst eve
ning with the friends of the Junior
class of the high school, who had
gathered to hear part of the class
present the melodrama "Among the
Breakers." The piece was put on by
the class as Its customary contribu
tion to the term-end orntoricals re
quired of the school each year. This
time, instead of each nttemptlng sep
arate selections, the class decided to
produce the play.
"Among the Breakers" is n melo
drama of stirring action and of a
great deal of weight, nnd the clnss Is
to be congratulated for the manner
in which It was handled last night.
All the parts were built for actors and
nctresscs and were hard to handle,
especially in the emotional lines, yet
the cast carried them In a very
creditable manner.
Albert Warner as "David Murry."
the villain, handled his part with fl'
delity and faithfulness. In the last
act. especially he had a very hard
role to sustain, but he did It with
credit.
Milton Shaw was the lead In the
piece, taking the part or "Hon. Bruce
Hunter." the man who had been
wronged by the villain and robbed of
his child, but who lived down his sor
row nnd rose to the plane of lofty
manhood. Mr. Shaw was very good
In the part, and interpreted it will.
Miss Mnry Rust, the old fortune
teller and wife of "David Murry
handled the lending lady's lines with
ease and naturalness. Her rendition
was true to life, and her .stage pres
ence was graceful and becoming.
The supporting cast had been chos
en well, and all did their parts to
make the play the success It was.
The comedy was funny, the pathos
sobered the audience, while the strong
lines were so read that they brought
out the meat of the play In a clear
and very interesting manner It was
a success.
