Hasson El Carib Jewel Bob Ballentine Bill Blake Henrietta Whipstitch Dick Taylor Howard Hecht John Heusted Evelyne Fischer Albertus Reda Conrad Gunncll Jane Walton Ted Hart The operetta this year was a beautiful and tuneful spectacle. It followed the adventures of a youn? aviator, Dick Taylor CTed Hartj and his two assistants Bob and Bill, fAlbertus Reda, Conrad Gunnellj in their search for the mysterious Belle of Bagdad , whom they wished to offer a screen contract. Dick falls in love with Jewel fEvelyne Fischerl the daughter of the Caliph fJohn Heustedl. She later turns out to be the Belle and promises to marry Dick and go to Hollywood. The comedv was furnished by Henrietta Whipstich CJane Waltonl, a disappointed spinster and Archie Fitzgibbons fClarence Rauschj, who loved not wise- ly but too well. The oriental atmosphere of the setting and the music made the operetta rather unique. The operetta cast and chorus were made up of approximately 80 people. They enjoyed working together for the production of the oper- etta. The work of the chorus as American tourists and native Persians was noteworthy. Mr. Maikowski and Miss Woodman directed the operetta very com- petently. Miss Alice Mary Furman accompanied the musical numbers of the operetta and deserves much credit. Page Forty-six 5 .X
