GREETS STROLLER PLAY

Amateurs Have Little Trouble With Difficult
Roles
COSTUMES ELABORATE
Topping productions of the Strollers in all around success, "Mice ami
Men," was presented to a large and appreciative audience of University and
townspeople at the Lexington Opera
House last Friday night. The entire
cast, from Mark Embury to that sniveling,
little orphan girl
last in line.furnlshed a revelation of
unbelievable correctness in amateur
character interpretation.
Costumes used in the play were
elaborately gorgeous In the striking
colors of the time, and what is equally
commendable, they were remarkable
fits. The scenery, also characteristic
of the eighteenth century, was all that
could be desired.
Anne Molloy, Gus Gay, Milton
and Eliza Spurrier had the leading parts and can probably lay claim
to the lion's share of honors.

Miss Molloy Much Admired
From the first appearance of "Miss
Molloy behind the footlights in "Mice
and Men" as "Little Britain," a , pretty, vivacious and mischievous little
"orphan brat," until with a camouflage
kiss, Captain Lovell claimed her his
own as Peggy, a sweet and demure
young woman, at the last curtain,
every male heart in the audience was
grappled in the shackles of her loveliness. Slle was exceedingly graceful
tho the dance was deleted by Dean
Hamilton and Professor Melcher, and
it can be reasonably supposed that she
tripped over the heath with' that fairylike movement for which she is noted
In the ballroom;, That she was not
acting but was just herself Peggy,
Little Britain, and Anne are one is
the highest tribute that can be paid
her.
And Gus Gay knew how to make
love with all the confidence of the
successful man who knows not the
meaning of the word "reverse" in connection with his 'affaires d'amour.' Tall
strikingly handand
some with his iron gray hair and
lined face, Gus was the star of the
play. Depicted as a strong well bred,
educated landowner of England's romantic class, he was the master of
situation, no matter how complex.
Gay shows rare promise if the stage is
chosen as his vocation.

Captain Lovell of tho British army
was played by Milton Rovell, so gallant and bravo that he was- thrown
into many an ugly situation for tho
reason that ho could not clear himself if in so doing he would embarrass
