NAVY REL|EFS
BENEFIT PLAY
AbIC SUCCESS
Mrs. Temples Telegram" Ad-
mirably Cast And Well Played,
Keeps Audience At Naval
Academy Auditorium Laugh
ing For Three Acts. Y
TWO PERFORMANCES
OF COMEDY TO-DAY

To say that Mrs. Temples
Telegram" which had its first
performance last night in the
Naval Academy Auditorium, was
an unqualified success is putting
it mildly. From the gorgeous
electric light display in the sign
over the entrance, down to the
design on the program cover,
every detail OF the production
was perfectly carried out. The
midshlpmen's prophecy that "Mr.
Pease would shove over another
winner" was more than fulfilled.
Well Suited For Amateurs
The play, which is by Frank Wyatt
and William Norris, is we'll suited for
prouction by amateurs, as it is full
of funny situations, all the parts are
good, and the action never lags once
in the course of the three acts,
The credit for the smoothness of
last nights performance, which went
without hitch, must be given to the
CAREFUL attention to details on the part
of the manager, Lieut.. Commander NJ.
S. Tisdale, and the thorough and con-
scientious rehearsing by the director,
Professor Royal S. Pease, to say
nothing of the hard work put in by
the actors themselves.
The unusually attractive and artis-
tic stage furnishings were supplied by
j. w. Valiant, who generously under
took this part of the work as his con-
tribution to the Navy Relief Society
Acting OF Parts
Honors were pretty well divided in
the three principal roles, those of Mr..
and Mrs. Temple and the friend, who
is called in to save the situation. Mrs.
McElduff's excellent rendering of the
part OF Mrs. Temple was really re-
markable performance, in view of the
fact that she took the role on two
weeks notice. filling Mrs. Breretons
place when the latter was forced to
drop out. The fact that Mrs. McEl-
