Such is not. the case here. The plays selected to be shown on this campus are, but for few exceptions, fine plays. They are tested, tried, and usually have enjoyed startling successes in the world of the theatre. There never is the problem of the material letting the actors down, or making them look bad. The material can’t miss. The problem is of the act ing letting the script down. “Papa Is All” is a fine play. It has cracking good dialogue, fun ny situations, suspense, and even a message. Players’ production of “Papa Is All” was entertaining. It was worth while going to see. The entertainment, however, did not come from the manner in which it was presented and acted, but from the inherant dramatic and comedy qualities of the play itself. This is not to say the acting was uniformly bad, that-all the actors muddled through the show. Two members of the cast gave performances that were very good for the college stage, the rest not nearly as good. Verna Sevas t was excellent in the supporting role of Mrs. Yo der. In timing, speech manner isms, and action on the stage she worked the last bit of comedy from her part and easily stole the scenes she appeared in. Playing the part of Mama with restraint and a deep sense of the Pennsylvania Dutch speech, Sar ah Von Nieda gave a fine per formance. She and Miss Sevast were primarily responsible for holding the play together. Not much can be said against A/S Robert Stabley’s character ization. He played the part of the tor.pred Jake with obvious sin cerity and effort. He was too in experienced and too awkward on the stage to do the part in the manner it deserved. Papa was portrayed poorly by Gerald Gilman. He consistently shouted his lines at the top of his lungs and consequently most of what he said could not be un derstood. Those lilies (jhat did come through were definitely not iii a Pennsylvania Dutch dialect. Mary 'Haines was inadequate as Emma. She overacted badly, and was too dramatic and tragic throughout the Play. A/S Mathias Szeyller was satisfactory as' State Policeman Brendle. iThe scene design and costumes supervision by Mrs. Dorothy B. Scott and the technical supervis ion by Grace O. Clayton were, as usual,'good. IWA Organizes- (Continued from page six) the initial council, and as other students complete .four consecu tive weeks of attendance at the meetings, their names are added to the council lists. During the Spring Semester IWA acquired as its new head quarters, 401 Old Main, the former College Sdcial Room.
