Play Props Drive Don Near Nuts
On the stage of Fraser Theater ae now being built:
a victoria Luggy
a garbage truck
a taxicab
All are necessary stage props for the play "White Wings", first Dramatic club production of the season now in the process of being cast. Don Dixon, speech department instructor, is in charge of building these odd conveyances.
The first day of tryouts last Friday started Prof Allen Crafton, speech department head and director of the play, on the annual search for talent. With a cast of sixteen, Director Crafton urges students interested in the play to try out. Any student, he said, is eligible for participation in Hill stage productions.
Tryouts will continue Monday afternoon as three-thirty on the stage of the little theater in the basement of Green hall. It is probable that rehearsals on "White Wings" will begin Monday evening, in preparation for opening night the last week in October.
At the same time "White Wings" is being cast, the group of about 10 actors needed for the cast of the second play will be partially selected. The second performance will be "Bertha the Sewing Machine Girl", one of the best known plays from the list of tear-jerking melodrama. This play was given here some years ago with marked success.
Stage manager, Don Dixon, will have his hands full with these two plays. For besides the conveyances needed for "White Wings", a locomotive puffing real smoke will be used in "Bertha." The train is used for that famous scene where heroine, Bertha is tied to the rails of the oncoming limited by the dastardly villain.
