The Weil dinected cast did full Justice te the clever dialogue SCf "The Winslow Boy," Tenence Iattigan's farnous play. 1It was an ambitious undertak- Iuig* to present such a mature pîsar and the portrayal requir-. ed sini and actint abillty. Thei cast did« remarkably well. Speelal Credit Special credit is due ta the dinectors, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sheridan, and tbe producer, Vince Mathéwson.

DeWith, entertainment, *Barbara Vermeulen, and pub- liçity, Garth Taylor. The entertainnient started *with several choral selections delightfully sung by the Gîe Club under the direction of R. Il Scott. "The Win slow -Boy' Student Produeer's Introduction The student producer's intro- duction was well given by How- ard Rundle. He explained that the action of the play takes place in the drawing-room cf a houje In Kensington, London, and ex- tends over two years of a pen- iod which, though unspecified, may be taken as pneceding Wonld War I. He said there would be two acts of two sceiies each. A Naval Cadet'. Dismlssal The story unfolded byr the play concerns the disgrace and dismnissel of a young cadet, Hon- nie Winslow. from the Naval College at Osborne, when the authorities there had been false- ly convinced he had fonged a classmate's name and cashed a small money onder. Verne Chant as Ronnie Winslow was very good.' Varied Emotion. The exacting part of the ca- det's father was eiÉceptionally well acted by Greg Cooper. This nole's stif f requirements were realistically met by Greg froni the time of the boy's return home, through the varied emo- tions cf the father's determin- cd struggle to cdean bis son's name. Canol Massie as the ca- det's mother also did well. She conveyed maternal warmth and dignit 'y. David Milne displayed talent. In the part cf the care-free older Winslow son be appeared complctely natural. He was the The Ideal Gf.. TELE VISION. MYLES Radio Service 3 Silver St. MA 3-3482 light heerted, somewhat empy headed playboy, man abut town, ta the life. Gail Bakeri was perfect too as the maid, an old-fashiotned family netainer. A Iliii ln the Part Nancy Wood was a hit in ber part of the Winslow's anly daughter. She played her diffi- cuit role with ease and charm. Gerth Taylor as ber fiance, John Wetherstone, was real, as the well-mannered young army of- ficer, and played well the ne- sults cf his limitations due ta the training received from his stel7n father. Ganth Taylor ceptured the au- dience by his remarkable par- trayal of the family solicitor. He had the exact vocal inflex- ions and mannerisms cf the type, and yet çonveyed a warm- heanted kirxdliness without seeming effort. Sir Robert Morton Excellent Marilyn Houslander was amusing as a woman reporter, and David Higgin showed pan- tomime skill as a press photo- grapher. Dan Cattran was ex- cellent as Sir Robent Morton, an eminent barnister and King's Counsel. His voice and mannen showed power and distinction. The entire cast exhibited a fine ability, and the author's clever lines were dclivered with wit and perfect timing. The costumes were especially good and absolutely true ta the per- lod as was the setting of thc Winslow's dnawing-room.

Jewellery Co Silver Gifts 1 Life of Beau' Why not be practical, asks the Jewelry Industry Council ln choosing your Christmas gifts? Practicality need flot mean your gift will lack sentiment or beauty. for if it is silver, eithcr sterling or plate, bolloware or flatwane, it will combine the qualities a thoughtful Chriatmam gift should have: a long life of usefulness, a very special beau- ty and an unmistakable cani- memorative value which gives it additional meaning and six- nificance. Because silver Is becoming, more and more, a favorite gift, it is no longer thought of as a present for brides only. There buncil Say Live Long Ity, -Utility is lovely silver for homemak- ers, young girls, babies and everi the men on your Christ- mas list. Starting with a homemakér's needs, it is wise, if Possible, to' check ber preaent supply of Sil- ver before choosing a gift. Per- haps she is stili building her sterling flatware collection a-id. if so, a place setting or Indivi- dual serving pieces in ber pat- tern would be a welcomne addi- tion. Inventory of her holloware may reveal she lacks some irn- Portant pieces such as a silver Vegetable dish, tray. saits and i peppers, candlesticks or center-' piece bowl. Shining assets to entertain- Irig are silver cigarette urns, individual ash trays and silver butter plates. Magnificent bath ta use and to display is a silver coffee or tea service. Hope chests are far from old fashîoned. Many young girls in their teens are collect.ing essen- tials for future housekeeping- among theni silver flatware and holloware. A chest of plated flatware would indeed be a cherisned contribution. Picture frames, dresser sets and dainty dlocks are gifts of silver she caii enjoy right away. A chIld's fi-st lifetime pos- session is Veryv often a silver baby cup. There are other gifts of silver for babies and youne children:. gifts that. with the years, become heirloonis for fu- ture eenerations to use and en- joy;, baby spoons and forks, long-handled feeding spoons, small picture frames, porring- ers, bib holders and junior-siz- ed place settinxs, among thein. For the man in the houae, yaur jeweler has a wide varietv of silver gzifts for his home and his office.
