Above the quality of the usual
home talent productions, The Rose
Dawn, musical comedy romance spon
sored by the Medford Business and
Professional Women's club, was en
thuslastically received by a large aud
ience at the Holjy theatre last night.
Indicative of Intensive preparatory
work, the musical comedy waa with
out dull momenta as well trained
players went through their turns.
Especially Interesting were danoe
numbers, melodic songs Interspersing
the plot of the evening's presentation,
filled with Incidents surrounding a
hidden castle In England.
Miss Edna Etfert, as a nurse who
awaited tn coming of the Rose Dawn
was outstanding In her role as were
all the principals. William Buchanan
as Jack, an English army officer, re
ceived the plaudits of an appreciative
audience, and as Oscar, a newspaper
reporter, Max Rae displayed com
mendable histrionic ability, taking
his part .with a graceful ease.
Nalda, the girl of mystery, was well
done by Miss Ruby Stone, while
Jerry "Barr was surprisingly good as
Nakkar, the priest of the temple. Miss
Stone carried the lead of the play
and maintained an un lagging Interest
In the presentation, while Sally, an
American vaudeville star, was so well
portrayed by Miss Eleanor McCaffrey,
well experienced In stage work, that a
perfect balance among the characters
resulted.
Leabel Miller portrayed Laneera,
the native girl, while Zadya, the solo
dancer, brought Miss Lucille Lowry
before the audience In numerous dif
ficult steps.
Among specialties oft the evening
were tap duets by Gretchen MacAl lis
ter and Ruth Harwood. a solo by L. N.
Fay, acrobatic dances by ten of Eve

Alibi Baby Chorus drew generous ap
plause, as well as the Laughter Lane
chorus composed of LaMurle Beck,
Pat Carlon, Jewel Deter, Margaret
Geer, Everetta Gillespie and Georgia'
Webb. Something different was the
Dancing Song chorus which presented
the same members as Included In the
Laughter Lane group.
As In other dances, mastery of dif
ficult steps could be easily noted In
the efforts of the Temple Dancers
Margaret Geer, LaMurle Beck, Elsie
Pardee, Jewel Deter. Edith Stump
and Jane Antle.
Always entertaining, a groun ' of
Medford Glee men with Miss Eleanor
Curry made up the All American
chorus with the following members:

Butler, Herbert Crane, Nell Foy. J. H.
McKenzle, Max Rae, Dr. E. W. Shock

smoothly throughout the evening and
orougnt realization to Medford the
atregoers of the extent theatrical
ability la existent in this section and
there is a general hope such presenta

ford Business and Professional Wom
en's club.
