S. Vietnam-Coups
The dynamic events that toppled
two governments in South Vietnam
and shook the free world are docu-
mented in a piercing report entitled
“Vietnam-Coups and Crises,” Mon-
day, March 2, at 8 p.m. on KLRN-
TV, Channel 9.
The one-hour special report, which
is being presented across the coun-
try on the National Educational Tel-
evision network, traces the crucial
history of South Vietnam’s troubles
from the time it was partitioned
nine years ago to the violent over-
throw of the Diem regime and the
bloodless second coup two months
later.

Exciting Mask & Wig
Play Marked By Fine
Acting and Direction
by LANNY NAEGELIN
Ann Alloway and Linda Sim-
mons turned in sparkling perfor-
mances Thursday night to make
OUR HEARTS WERE YOUNG AND
GAY an entertainment experience to
remember!
The entire production, staged un-
der the expert direction of Drexel
Riley, was loaded with top notch
acting. The staging was outstand-
ing; the dialogue good, though in
places a little tired; and the techni-
cal ' work showed experience al-
though it lacked coordination.
The play, written by Cornelia Otis
Skinner and Emily Kimbrough and
dramatized by Jean Kerr, kept up
its fast pace from the first curtain
to the last. In places the pace was
almost too fast and some lines got
lost in the laughter. This was a fault
especially in the early part of the
first act. But the fault didn’t dis-
tract from the over-all great per-
formances.
Ann, a sophomore from Houston,
moved professionally through her
role, getting every part of her body
into the act. She flitted and stumbled
and slinked from one part of the
stage to another, coming to a grand
peak with a series of monologues in
the final scene. One interesting com-
ment about her performance was:
“She has the most expressive feet
I’ve ever seen.”
Just as outstanding was Linda
Simmons, a sophomore from Lexing-
ton. She screamed and screeched
her way through the play, jittering
about like a disturbed queen bee.
And the audience loved every mo-
ment of it Her “swimming scene”
drew great applause.
Of the supporting cast, Rita Webb
as Mrs. Skinner was particularly
good. Her facial expressions and
movement captured the character
she played perfectly in age, spirit,
and attitude. Bill Springer who play-
ed Otis Skinner, had a ;low beginning,
but once into the part he gave a
performance well worth special men
tion. The dry humor he added to
the play through his interpretation
of his role was just the needed
touch to offset some of the louder
excitement.
Jim Piercd (Dick Winters) and
David Scott (Leo McEvoy), making
their debuts on the Southwestern
stage, were both excellent. Jini
looked the part of a Harvard Pre-
Med Student, and played the role
calm, cool, and collected. David
was gcod contrast with a more ner-
vous interpretation of his character.
His only fault was that his hands

seemed to bother him, and at times
this made him really nervous.
Carmen Matheny and Georgia
Anne Wynne, as Harriet and Wini-
fred, contrasted Ann and Linda.
The lines of their first entrance
were a bit muffled1, but their effect
on the play was good. Their move-
ment on stage was particularly im-
pressive. :
Frank Rodden had what could
have been the best remembered sup-
porting role in the play. He caught-
his character well in movement and
bodily expression, but he lost him
somewhat in verbal expression, as
if afraid of over-playing. - 1
Cray Cooke and Shirley Ballard as
Therese and Madame Elise, owners
of French Hotel, added a touch of
lightness with their performances.
Cray made good use of her eyes
and hands, but “her voice was too
soft in places and words were lost.
Shirley fit well into the role of an
exoiteable French woman; she
was pushed, shoved, and silenced,
but she never gave up, and the re-
sult was a truly exciting portrayal
on her part.
The ship's crew, Van Phillips as
the Steward, Stewart Slater as the
Purser, Sandra Pennington as the
Stewardess, and Joe Aranki as the
Admiral, was an interesting conglo-
meration of character types. Van
Philips and Sandra Pennington gave
particularly noticeable characteriza^
tions. __
Two characters still deserve men-
tion---Judy Stone as the Inspector
1 r ~ ■
m
and Angus Hendrick as the Window
Cleaner. Judy’s accent slipped a bit,
but her glare was constant, and
menacing. And, Angus, for some
reason, was the only character on
stage who seemed truly interested
in Cornelia’s monologues in the last
scene— yet at the end of the scene,
each character on the stage remark-
ed how wonderful they were. I'm
glad Angus whs familar enough with
the script to know what to do!
The only place the play showed
any real weakness was in the tech-
nical work. The tacking time clock
was uneonstant; there weren’t any
zipper bags in 1923; and the lighting
vyas clumsily handled in one or two
scenes. These flaws were minor,
however, and probably only notice-
able when looked for.
Director Riley handies the play ’
well and kept it fresh through his
. staging. If the cast was particular#
exceptional, indeed, so was their
director. ■> r
