Ruth, Played by Madaline Martin in her Gum Girl costume, is visited by her curious father, Sister Elleen Makes a Hit Two small town girls move into, a Greenwich Village Basement Apartment, and into the life of men and adventure, found only in New York City. This was the story that formed the basis of the broadway play My Sister Eileen and from which Castro Valley's fine arts area presented this year's successful spring play. The main cast included Betty Johnson, portraying Eileen Sherwood, the very popular model and actress to beg Madeline Martin as Ruth, her sister who wants to be a writerg Mr. Appopolous, John O'Leary the girls' fast talking landlord, and Joe Rooney as the Wreck and ex-football player who lives above the girls. Under the di- rection of MVS- RMS-Sell, the play recreates the adventures and difficulties of city life which the young imaginative Eileen and her older, but far more rational sister, encounter. While trying to make a new start in the big world of opportunities, their lives turn into a massof confusion as they look for jobs in order to save themselves from near pov- erty. Others in the cast were Gail Graves as Helen, the Wreck's wifeg Nancy Alexander as Mrs. Wade, Helen's motherg and Mike Moschetti as Frank Lippencott, one of Eileen's many admirers. Jeff Guintini, Jim Gomes, Arnold Brown, and other members of the cast help with the play's scenery.
