At such times the entire group appears Inspired to scale new heights of achievement Such was the oase with the Ore gon Shakespearean Festival company In the presentation of Twelfth Night at the Elizabethan theater tn Ash land last night. Every actor was mag netically alert, all worked closely to gether to Infuse the play with an epemeral quality that for the time being at least made the comedy a living story. And this sparkle was transmitted to the audience. The response to the comedy lines was spontaneous, In terest was maintained from the first curtain to the last and at the end the audience was loath to leave, de manding that the players take cur tain call after curtain call. . Perhaps It was the romantically balmy air, the star-studded sky or the full harvest moon t:at cast a pale and mlscbevlous glow over the big ampltheater. yerhaps It was the feeling of pride In knowing that this year's festival has been the most suc cessful of the four annual series Perhaps It was the realization that to make It appear plausible in thin modern day of reality Shakespeare's comedy of mistaken Identity had to have new life breathed Into It. Whatever It was that set the spark off, the result was a scintillating pro duction that created a . genuine Il lusion of a real story that was being unfolded for the first time. George P. Smith was superb as Mai vollo, the servant with grandiose Ideas of marriage above his station In life. With a perfection seldom seen off the professional stage, lv enacted his Important role with gratifying success. As Jovial old souse Augus L. Bu rner portrayed what to this reviewer was his most satisfying role In t e series to date. With William Cottrell and Tom Palrchlld as effective co horts, Mr. Bowmer carried along the comedy as the pot-bellied Sir Toby Belch who was never less than half Inebriated. Twelfth Night brought to the fes tival two young women seen for the first time In the current series of plays. They were Melba Day and Kit ty Ingle and both were better than good. As a rich countess who repulsed the ardent wooing of the duke and fell for his servant, a girl disguised as her twin' brother. Miss Day was a picture of regal loveliness and she enacted her part with the effective ness of an experienced trouper. Kit ty Ingle displayed a real talent for comedy, admirably aiding Sir Toby and his cohorts In . Inventing and carrying out nefarious schemes. Ballle Oeary had the difficult task of giving reality to the girl who transformed herself Into her twin brother and she played the part ade quately well. Augus Moore, Jim Parsons and Robert Stedman contributed meas urably In making Twelfth Night one of the best productions In this year's festival. C0RR1GAN TO TAKE JOB AS CO-PILOT WASHINGTON, Aug. 11 (AP) Douglas Corrtgan said today he plan ned to return Immediately to New York to reassemble hU 9900 Atlantic spanning airplane and then to pre pare for a regular Job.
