ne Act Pla Festival Stimalates ew Talent Footlights illuminate abilities of Marian, Rice Students in four succinct performances Four hours of an afternoon culminated months of practice and preparation on the four short plays presented by the thespians of Marian and Brother Rice. Under the codirection of Sr. Judine and Br. Nash, the festival opened with the Potboiler . Mocking modern dramas, the play was noted for the clowning of Sandy Halleck, as the vampire, and John Hilderbrand, as the villain. A rollicking success, this play was chosen as an entry to the city competition of the Cenesian Festival. The fantasy, The Devil and Daniel Webster , was chosen as the second offering to the Catholic competition. ln this classic, devilish Dan Diggles vied with 'lim Bodary for the soul of Jabez Stone. ln the end, Daniel Webster won again as Jim Bodary claimed best actor award. ln a more serious vein, One Red Rosen concerned the conflict between an orphan and the Mother Superior. As the orphan, Terry Cahill merited the best actress award. A cutting from The Teahouse of thc August Moon cli- maxed the festival. Dave Sakini Dean solved the problems of war surplus geisha girls.
