the three principals conflict in the
tale of "that Old Devil Sea's" in
fluence over them. •
Everybody is fighting. Joe Bird,
fights "Devil Sea" and his daugh
ter's suitor, as the Swedish barge
captain Chris Christotherson, but
manages to bring something very
good out of the battle, namely,
the finest performance of the
show and possibly the season. His
Chris is real, likeable, and satisfy
ing.
Francine Toll, in the title role, as
Chris' daughter, who fights her
father, herself, and her past, turns
in a hard, selfish, frightened, not
'always good Performance as a
hard, selfish, always bad girl. Al
ternately screaming at her father
and George Miller, as Mat Burke,
her, suitor, she sometimes makes
the scared, shaky Anna a little
scary.
Miller, ,as the • big, likeable
Irisher, is big, not always like
able, and usually adequate in
spite of an on-again, off-again
brogue.
All-in all, the screamings, rant
ings, knife and gun scenes are not
restful but more than entertain
ing. .
'Joyce Rexford is seen too little
as the barge buddy "Marthy" of
Chris, who is quickly shaken off
by the old Swede when daughter
Anna enters.
Lew Shirey is cast as "Johnny
the-Priest", proprietor of the in
land hangout of Christ and
friends.
Jay Broad is Larry. Carl Wag
ner and Bill Coleman are two
longshoremen.
James Ambandos directed the
second production of the season.
His directorial hand might, have
been used at times in holding
down the voices of the cast in the
more exciting scenes.
Maintaining a property inven
tory at the Pennsylvania State
College is a' big job. Harry J.

out that more than a quarter of a

New Surgical Drug
Is Synthetic Form
Of Arrow Poison
A new muscle-relaxing drug
that will be helpful to surgeons
during operations was announced
today by Lederle Laboratories
This new drug, Flaxedil, is a
synthetic substance closely re
lated to curare, the drug used by
native South American hunters as
an arrow poison to paralyze their
game. •
A Lederle spokesman said that
use of Flaxedil in the operating
room will mean less anesthetic
for the patient, less nausea, and
more rapid recovery.
The first information• on curare
was obtained- by explorers visit
ing South America shortly after
Columbus - discovered the New
World. They found that native
hunters dipped arrows and spears
in the drug and paralyzed their
game. Later investigation re
vealed that the native drug acts
on nerve endings to bring about
temporary paralysis of body
muscles.
