THE RED and BLACK 4 THE SENIOR PLAY Fanny and the Servant Problem scored a big hit. The faculty say so, and a NS. R. U. audience' said so most emphatically. The play held the attention of the audience every minute. There were no dull moments, and interest never lagged. And an attentive audience is, after all, the real test. Orpha Spicer, as Fanny, made a decidedly modern, but thoroughly lovable and see1nly bride. Lawrence Pierpont, as Lord Bantock, was the real thing' in nice boyu husbands. Ruth O'Conn0r and Frances Kiley were the personification of fragile, helpless, yet adorable aunts of uncertain age. Fanny upon arriving at Bantock Hall finds that Her uncles and her cousins are numbered by the dozens, and her aunts, in the persons of the Bennett family, faithful, conscientious, and unselfish, servants of Lord liantock. The' surprise fand the clistressj, is mutual. Morris Halperin as Uncle Bennett, and Vivian Chamberlain as Aunt Bennett, aided by Honoria fKathryn Hickeyj and Jane fMary Sollyj, start a course of training to Ht the new Lady Bantock for the duties of your position, my dear, and so the conflict rages. When things look darkest, Fanny's former business manager, Newt CHarold Rowej, and Dr. Freemantle Uohn Weightmanj bring some measure of consolation and peace. Ernest Bennett fEdward Gerstenj is Fanny's only ally. But Fanny rises to the occasion, wins the hearts of the aunts, and at last, the respect of the Bennett family, and the darkness of the night passes into the sunrise of peace, happiness, and love. It was really good, unusually so, thanks to the judicious selection of the play, hard work by the cast, and particularly to the skill, tact, and labor of Miss Claire VVilliams. She leaves us in June. We wish she didn't. 1924, we challenge you to beat Fanny and the Servant Problem. P. S. Don't forget the delegation of chorus girls from London who came down to call on Fanny, to the astonishment of the aunts, the con- sternation of the Bennett family, and the delectation df the staid Dr. Freemantle. This highly modern and very attractive double quintette furnished a humorous contrast to the more serious action of the play. Edwin B. Robbins.
