' ' The Hypo Christens With the fall production of Moliere ' s The Hypo , the Creighton Players and the Little Theater in the new College of Business Administration made their debut together. The comedy was a challenge to the actors, and a treat for the students and faculty in the audience. Barth Butalla portrayed Argon, the hypochondriac, and Mary Ann Jacobs played Beline, his scheming wife. Mickey Brenner was seen as the maid; John Vacanti. as Monsieur Diafoirus, and George Hill as his son. Thomas: Judv Snell as Madame Purgon. the physician: and Roger Diez as Ar- gon ' s brother, Beralde. The two lovers. Angelique and Cleante. were played by Patricia Padden and David Moran. A rgon ' s brother. Beralde, sums up the wit of the play, its mockery of medicine and learning, by saying: When you have a cap and gown on. any gibberish becomes wis- dom, and all nonsense becomes sound reason. (Act III) CLEVER AND CRAFTY, Argon ' s scheming second wife, Beline, portrayed by Mary Ann Jacobs in a quality performance. THE FINALE brings the entire cast to the curtain. The little fellows are From St. Benedict ' s parish. ANIMATED ARGON, Barth Butalla, decries the cost of medi- cine as he moans over his imaginary ailments. 26
