T3un Senior Pla? “Master Skylark.” The production of “Master Skylark” by the June class of 1916 surpassed all expectations. Master Shakespeare himself would have repeated his famous remark, “The play’s the thing.” And indeed it was “the thing.” Everyone turned out—at least, all that could turn out the quarter. The all-star cast, from Hodge, who was so profusely loaded with garlands and wreaths, to Cicely, who gently and firmly succeeded in the leap year custom, demonstrated their genius in a very commendable manner. Master Skylark was especially appropriate at this time of the Shakespearian tercentenary. The following all-star cast took part: Nicholas Attwood (skylark).................................Suduarth Frasier Simon Attwood..................................................Victor IVood Margaret Attwood...........................................Rhoda Kellogg Gaston Carew...............................................Victor Troendle Cicely Carew...............................................Gretchen Lueck Gregory Goolc..............................................Stanley Staples William Shakespeare..............................................Glen Eustis Ben Jonson.................................................Robert Barnes Thomas Hey wood.......................................................Donald Parsons Queen Elizabeth....................................................Elizabeth Grimes Master Gyles.........................................................Stanley Rosenberg Hodge .....................................................Preston Holliday Bailiff...............................................................Dwight Powers Burgess...............................................................Stuart Ainsworth Sir Thos.
