TOWN AND GOWN BOY MEETS GIRL The first presentation of Town and Gown this year was Boy Meets Girl , by Belle and Samuel Spewack, on October 21 and 22 m the Masonic Temple. This racy, fast- moving comedy was given arena style with the audience on three sides, and only furniture and costumes were used to indicate time and place, since no scen- ery could be employed. Although the circle theatre made it more difficuH for the actors, it gave a more realistic impres- sion for the audience. Jim Thomas capably handled the role of C. F.

Good supporting roles in the cast were given by Shirley McElhany as Miss Crews, the secretary of Mr. Friday, and Jamil Toubbeh, who capably filled the role of the Indian soldier who won Susie for his wife. Director of the play was Dr. M. W. Tillson, and Bob Marsden was stage man- ager. 27 »
