Dorothea Tossman Excellent On Production —But Disappointing First Play

Despite the disgusting weather on Friday night the Dramatic Club's one-act play evening was reasonably well patronized and it was a satisfied audience which adjourned to the dance floor to await supper. The show opened badly —very badly in our opinion—but two excellently produced and interesting playes succeeded in pulling it out of the fire.

The choice of "Villa for Sale" was not of the best to begin with, but that was not the only shortcoming. An inexperienced cast and slipshod production combined in making it one of the worst exhibitions "Smad" has witnessed on the Gym platform.

In marked contrast were "Mr. Sampson" and "Thread o' Scarlet," where faithful and painstaking attention to detail were rewarded by artistic performances. "Smad" congratulates all concerned.
