,f Melodrama Proves Successful Q-. Q, Deadwood Dick is an action-filled adventure that takes place in the Man-Trap Saloon in the 1800's. Deadwood Gulch, a thriving mining town, is harrassed by a Robin Hood of the Black Hills, Deadwood Dick. As the play opens we find that Deadwood has not only held up the stage,.but kidnapped a beautiful girl, Rose Blossom. As a re- sult Rose's innocent blind sister, Lily, is left alone in the saloon. Blackman Redburn decides he will take care of Lily-but only because he believes that the map to the blossom mine is branded upon her back. What follows are cases of mistaken identity, duels, and of course, romance. In the end, we find that good triumphs once again, over evil. The play was presented to the public on April 30, 1981. Miss Holman, director of the play, was presented a cake and a plaque displaying the members of the cast. Having a melodrama play this year, instead of the traditional comedy, turned out successful, as a S310 profit was made. SPRING PLAYf31
