ALUMNAE PLAYERS
SCORE A SUCCESS
Facing the Music" Admirably
Presented Before Audience
in New Century Club

Facing the Music" styled on the
program "A Tangle in Three Knots %
was presented in an extremely enter
tanning manner at the New Century
Club last night by the High School
Alumnae players The play, a farce,
was laughable from start to finish and
a representative audience of Whining
tonians was furnished one Of the best
amateur productions ever seen in
Wilmington. The action ran smooth
throughout. each part being well inter-
preted and i'm a style that made the
work of each player fit perfectly into
that Of the other
Miss Elizabeth c. bunker as the
wrong wife in the wrong fiat. played
In a natural, effective manner that
showed a full knowledge OF her part
and perfect control. Everett c. Brit
ton. as the Rev. John Smith. the very
meek curate. at st. Andrews. was
roughly handled and misunderstood by
everyone. and his scenes with Mrs.
Pointing, the housekeeper, caused many
a laugh. Miss Edith c. Bakey was the
housekeeper and made up we'll for the
part and did finely. Melvin b.
Wright. the other Mr.. Smith, and an
owner Of race horses. was the butt of
most of the errors and had to face
the music" His dishevelled appear
ance and manner at his first entrance
won the audience ana his work
throughout the entire performance
showed an amount of skill and talent
rarely seen in an amateur.
He was very ably assisted by
Charles E. Scott, who was Dick Des-
mond, Smiths unmarried guest. Mr..
Scott played his part in an exceedingly
capable manner and without trace
of the amateurish
Miss Bessie NJ Toppin, as Nora. the real
wife. won new laurels by her artistic and
temperamental portrayal. and Miss NADIA
ION C. Heck, the actress whom Desmond
termed the "foglette" was chic and cap
tivating. Harold c. Souder uncle of John
Smith. was made up Cor the character In
truly professional manner and sustained
the part admirably. Clement b. Halam
az Sergeant Dufell, the mysterious sleuth
almost, but not quite, solved the mystery
He did the sleuthing in the typical Eng
lish fachon and his deductions caused
much merriment. The unusually larg,
audience seemed thoroughly pleased witt
the evenings entertainment
I After the performance a dance was hell
and Harry b. Mock's orchestra furnished
delightful music which added to the on
joyment of this part OF the program.
The play was ably coached by Mis-
/ Elsie NJ. Brodrick. instructor in elocu
tion at the Friends School. and her intel,
| igent direction was amply reflected in th'
performance OF the players. Miss Brod
erick received a large box Of roses from
, the cast.
