Mad' Bliss Gang Goes Hay Wire In 'Hay Fever'
By MARCELLA STEWART
(Daily Kansas Staff Writer)
The eccentricities of a "perfectly mad" English family provided plenty of laughs when the Speech department presented Noel Coward's "Hay Fever" in Fraser theater last night. The play will be repeated tonight and Saturday at 8:15 p.m.
The outstanding performance was given by Glennon Thompson in her role as Judith Bliss, mother of this unusual family, whose every move was dramatically inspired from the cultivation of romances with young men to everyday scenes in her home.
John Feist, as the author husband, was convincingly mature and sophisticate not above a bit of intrigue, with one of the weekend guests.
Harold Harvey, as the "noncommital" diplomat, gave a genuine portrayal of a rather obtuse gentleman dismayed in his position as weekend guest.
Margaret Gosney and Robert Koenig turned in good performances in the cleverly written roles of the tempamental and tempestuous daughter and son of the family, as did Joan Woodward as the ingene.
Other roles were played by Edith Fleming Lessennd as the self-conscious vamp, Haney Scott as the brawny prizefighter, and Kathleen Howland as the maid.
"Hay Fever" is a farce comedy "written for laughing purposes only" and the only puzzling thing about it is the title. The action concerns the antics of the members of this eccentric family who independently try to entertain house guests the same weekend. The general confusion engendered sends "Hay Fever" through three acts to a highly amusing conclusion.
The English accents necessary to the play, the action of which takes place in the Bliss home somewhere in England, were not overdone and gave a pleasing touch of authenticity to the performance. Timing by the actors was, in general, good and the play was kept moving at a pace essential to the witticisms of Noel Coward's comedy.
"Hay Fever" is the first full-length play to be presented this year. It was presented on the campus in 1938, at which time it had a six-night run.
Direction and staging of the play were conducted by Allen Crafton, speech professor. Assistants were Frances Feist and Jessica Crafton. Prompet was Frances Ewing.
Sig Alph, Beta Win Semi-Finals
Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Beta Theta Pi advanced to the semi-finals of the intramural basketball championship playoffs by defeating Navy Clippers and Phi Delta Theta last night.
THE WORLD'S MOST HONORED WATCH
WINNER OF 10 WORLD'S FAIR GRAND PRIZES,
28 GOLD MEDALS AND MORE HONORS FOR ACCURACY THAN ANY OTHER TIMEPIECE
The Beta's, defending champions, came from behind to outscore the Phi Delt's 38 to 27. The Phi Delt's led 10-3 at the end of the first quarter, but the Beta's narrowed the lead to 15-12 at half time. The Beta's held the Phi Delt's to five points in the third quarter and amassed 14 points to go into the lead for the first time. The fourth quarter saw the Beta's pulling away to a comfortable margin.
Guinn, Beta center, led the scoring with 12 points and controlled the rebounds the second half to give the Beta's edge. Dillard tallied 11 points for the Phi Delt's.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon defeated the Navy Clippers 32 to 24. The height advantage the Sig Alph's held was the deciding factor of the game. The score was close the first half, but the Sig Alph's built up a safe margin in the second half. Kucenski, Navy Clipper forward, was high-scorer of the game with 11 points. Sheridan led the Sig Alph's with 10 points.
The Sig Alph's will tangle with the Little Phogs in a semi-final game at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Robinson gymnasium. Both teams are undefeated, and it should be one of the best games in the playoff series.
Beta Theta Pi meets Sigma Nu in the other semi-final game Monday night at 7:30. The Sigma Nu's were second place winners of Division II and lost only to the powerful Sig Alph's. This game should be hard-fought from start to finish.
