SENIOR PLAY PRODUCTION STAFF .SEQ Semi- Eflay On May 13 the curtain in Caleb Mills Hall rose, disclosing the living room of the Hardy family, opening scene of Skidding, the true to life story of a family written by Aurania Rouverol and directed by Miss Eleanor Dee Theek. Andy, a typical boy of sixteen was John Goll. Mrs. Hardy, faithful and devoted, was played by Hazel Gabbert. Judge Hardy, Jim Hamilton, a splendid judge, could not straighten out the difficulties of his own family. Joan Colgan interpreted his daughter Marion, the heroine. Wayne Trenton III, known to Shortridgers as Roy Johnson, objected to her plans for a political career, having in mind for her instead a domes- tic career as his wife. Estelle Campbell, played by Emily McNab, and Myra Wilcox, Virginia Robinson, were Marian's married sisters. Aunt Milly, counselor for the family, was Jean Miller. Under the white whiskers and glasses was Charles Breunig, playing the part of quaint and lovable Grandpa Mr. Stubbins, Martin Wirth, was Judge Hardy's political aid and advisor. The production staff included Bob Boemler, student director, Mildred Orr and Mary J. Lewis, promptersg Evelyn Kettner, property managerg Betty Erickson, make-upg James Teer and La Vone Ostermeyer, wardrobe, and Louise Wilde, publicity. A selected theatre orchestra under Mr. Will F.
