MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY. MAY 13, 1938.
PAIGE THREE
IN 3-AGT COMEDY
Walter Ben Hare three -act com
dy, "A Little Clodhopper," presented
by cast of the Young Ladles' and
Young Men's Catholic clubs, last eve
ning In the auditorium of St. Mary's
Academy, was well received by an
appreciative audience who were con
stantly In a state of laughter during
the entire performance.
The cast consisted of Mary Morris
ey, lead, with Gene Monaco playing
opposite. Warren Loffer, Ted Nave,
Catherine Porter field, Jeoes Jensen
and La Vonne Mills. In supporting
rotes .were Paul Sakraida, Helen
McDonald, Elsie Oliver and Jeannette
McKee.
Splendid talent was shown by Miss
Morrlsey as "the little clodhopper",
the poor farm rascal. Oene Monaco
as the high-powered book salesman
carried the role with ease and was
quite the favorite of the audience, as
handsome heroes usually are. War
ren Loffer as the farm hand Ocey
Gump fitted the role perfectly, as did
Miss Jensen portraying the man
crazy old maid who sets her cap for
Ocey and finally wears him down to
the point of matrimony. Miss Porter
field's presentation of Mrs. Chlgger-son-Boggs,
the dominating mother
was excellent. She dominated every
one but particularly her delicate son,
George, In which rote Ted Kave was
outstanding.
In acting the spoiled and helpless
young man bo proved himself more
the professional than the amateur.
C harm! an Carter, George's movie act
ress fiance was played In professional
manner by La Vonne Mills.
Prior to the opening of the "Little
Clodhopper" a delightfully absurd
pantomime titled "The Lamp Went
Out", was given by the following cast,
Charles Morrlsey, Lewell Dupray, John
Wilkinson. Paul Sakraida and Gene
Monaco. Between scenes EMsebe Dal
lalre rendered piano selections.
The entire program will be given
again this evening, starting at 8
o'clock. It la expected that the play
ers will present even a more finished
showing In this final performance

AT 20 TRIPP ST.
Fire late yesterday afternoon dam
aged the garage and a car at 30 Tripp
street. Origin of the blaz could
not be determined though It might
have started spontaneously from an
oil-soaked rag. Chief Roy Elliott re
ported. The fire started in a corner
of the garage, he said.
Art Brenner Is the occupant of the
property and owner of the car. The
property Is owned by Dora Lane of
Lakevlew. The Brenners were not at
home.
The paint, windows and windshield
of the car were oilned and the roof
and corner of the garage were burned.
Firemen pulled the car out of the
blazing garage, being handicapped In
saving the automobile because It was
left in gear and with the band brake
on. Chief Elliott said. He advised
owners to leave their cars with the
brakes off and out of gear so that
they can be pulled out more readily
In case of fire.
Beginning ' Sunday ' all residents
must turn off faucets and taps when
ever the fire alarm Is sounded, the
chief stated. When the fire is out,
the whistle will be blown to signal
that the water may be turned on
again. This la necessary In summer
months, he explained, because the
great consumption of water for do
mestic use reduces the pressure to a
dangerously low level, and full pres
sure Is required In fighting fires. '

"Sweet Chandler Egan, old enough
then to have been the father of any
boy on the team . . . winner of the
national title In 1005, and yet he
made the Walker cup team 29 years
later. Chandler's gone now, but his
tine qualities wilt be remembered as

The one encouraging feature of till

upturn. The ticker tape napped fre
quently and transfers apperoxlmated
only 600,000 ehares.

said, pending the signing of the tax
