the part of the spectator. The play,
written by Oliphant Down, was
amusing in dialogue, and suffered
only in simplicity of plot with too
weak a resolution.
The fantasy involved the silent
love lavished by Pierrette on Pier-
rot. She laments the fact her love
is unreturned. His interest is for
the ladies who praise his songs.
CUPID IN DISGUISE
The plaintive Pierrette is visited
by Cupid in disquise. As the Mak-
er of Dreams, Cupid intervenes in
the unrequieted romance and gives
to Pierrot the key to finding his
true love. Pierrot discovers this
key fits Pierrette for a happy end-
ing.
The cast consists of Mildred
Dew of El Paso as Pierrette; Jack
Ellis of Paris as Pierrot; and
Robert Graham of Houston as
Cupid. All were made up in the
French Commedia Francaise style.
The white-masked make-Up gave
the figures a doll-like appearance
that suited well the fantasy theme.

He said 96.8 million head of cat-

the number had Increased six mil-
lion and will continue 6’rise, pro-
bably to a demoralizing estimate
of 110 million to 115 million by
1964.
“As cattle numbers increase,
slaughter numbers decline, forc-
ing prices upwards,” he continued.
"But when slaughter increases,
prices naturally will dip according
to rushes into markets.”
MeHaney refuted cattlemen’s
claims they were not receiving
aid from the government and that
they were taking care of their own
segment of the agricultural indus-
try.
"If that is true, how do you ac-
count for the large sums given
stockmen for brush clearing, pas-
ture improvement, stock and wa-
ter tank construction?" he asked.
One of the biggest problems of
agriculture today is that we are
producing more than we need and
can ship overseas at a reasonable
nrice, he told the group.

mands detachment and probably
is the one play form best suited
to the separation inherrent in the
conventional proscenium theatre.
Being too closely involved with a
fantasy can destroy the illusion.
BROAD DIRECTION
Outside of the make-up, little at-
tempt was made to heighten any
illusion of fantasy. Direction was
broad and movement rather
sweeping and dance-like. Lighting
was full.
As Pierrette, Miss Lew’s lack
of animation was contrasted by
the action of the other players.
Ellis as Pierrot was gay and good
humored. Graham as Cupid was
wise and witty.
Costuming, done by Supper The-
atre members, was excellent.
"The Maker of Dreams” is a
type play that can be enjoyed
without the worry of social signi-
ficance. The plot done in another
form would be melodrama, espec-
ially as the character Pierrette
was presented but the addition of
the character Cupid avoids this
fault.
"The Maker of Dreams,” will
be repeated tonight. Supper is
served at 7 p.m. and the play fol-
lows. Admission, which includes
dinner, is $1.75.

TP&L has agreed to assume the
city's $121,000 bonded indebtedness
in the transaction, if it is approv-
ed by voters and by bondholders.
The election will be held in the

Hugh D. Clark, who retired Jan.
1 as vice president and general
manager of the southern division
of Moore Business Forms Inc., is
a new member of the board of
directors of the Morrison Milling
Company in Denton.
E. W. Morrison Sr., president of
the company, made the announce-
ment Thursday. Clark’s appoint-
ment fills a vacancy left by the
recent resignation of O. A. Powell
of Wichita, Kan. Powell had been
a company director since 1948.
Morrison said the company was
happy to make the announcement
of Clark's appointment, saying fur-
ther. “He bears the invaluable
reputation of being one of Ameri-
ca's most capable business orga-
nizers and administrators.”
Clark, who began working with
