iEDFORD MAIL TRTBTTNTE, MEDFOTCD, OREGON, THURSDAY. APRIL 28. 1933. PAOE. THREE I L Barry Conner's three-act romantic comedy, "Applesauce," presented by a out of seven hlgn school seniors, In the high school auditorium last night, met with whole hearted approval of one of the largest crowds ever to at tend a high school senior play. The curtain rose at 8 o'clock after the high school orchestra, under the baton of P. Wilson Walt had played Ballet Bfeyptlan by Lulgulnl. The cast consisted of Jeanette FlclcMn the ro mantic lead, with Don Herrled oppo site. Bob Conroy. Harold Sleight, Catherine Conroy, Russel Blair and Mary Lou Mann as comedy characters. Musical selections were rendered, be tween acts, by the girls' trio, boys' ensemble and Miss Floy young. It was generally conceded that "Ap plesauce" has surpassed all expecta tions to set a new high for amateur productions. It was one of the finest displays of talent ever produced by students In this city. Much credit Is due Grace Slices, head of the drama department, under whose . direction the play was staged., assisted by Jean H or ten, student director. Mrs. Slkes turned out a commendable play. Fine dramatic talent In the play was displayed by Jeanette Field, whose buoyancy on the stage made her characterization of Hazel Robin son, fascinating to the audience. Ex cellent work In supporting Miss Field was done by Donald Herrled, second romantic lead, who carried scenes well over many weak moments. Mr. Herrled gave a charming and wholly plausible Interpretation of the char acter of happy-go-lucky BUI Mc Allister. . FRIDAY AT SAFEWAY Large Fresh Crabs, ea. . 19c Fresh Halibut, lb.... 12V2C .

Splendid comedy talent was dis played by all members of the cast, being most clearly evidenced by Catherine Conroy's characterization of the nosey, Inquisitive neighbor, Mrs. Jennie Baldwin. Harold Sleight as Rollo Jenkins, the wealthy fiancee, gave a finished performance, remaining perfectly within the role of tne egotistical and financially Important young man, Mary Lou Mann as Ma Robinson turned out a most convincing char acterization and was always sure of a laugh from the audience as her role was that of a not-to-brllllant but sweet mother. Russell Blair as Matt McAllister may be credited with a splendid performance as Bill's gruff well-to-do-uncle. His make-up also, was very convincing. Outstanding performance of the evening was that given by Bob Con roy as Pa Robinson, the silver haired father with the "peevish" disposition was played to perfection.' Conroy not only pleased the audience but was applauded time and again.
