we WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1924 3 'CALAMITY' IS FINELY ACTED Community Players Give an Excellent Performance The Community Players and the Com- munity Drama club made their bow for the season of 1924-25 on Wednesday night in Rudolph Matz hall, presenting "A Successful Calamity," by Clare Kummer. The play, sparkling with clever repartee, was extremely well cast, and the audience, being hand-picked, did not miss a single toss of the ball. Playgoers have come to expect fin- ished work from William Boyden, Jr., Charles Fastman, Iloyd Faxon, and Relph Varney; but this time Charles Matz did the best work he has yet shown himself capable of ; while of the cast, Mable Vogel and Helen Davis, were eminently satisfactory, the first as the naive young second wife, and the latter as the rather blase but charm- ing daughter. Mrs. Harry Cadenhead played a minor part very agreeably, while Ralph Snyder, Elmer Sipple, and Mary Harding we shall hope to hear and see again. John Marshall, as family physician, runs the risk of being called for medical advice by any stranger who saw the play. Only those who have been "behind the scenes" know the work and thought contributed by the director, Mrs. John Marshall, the property manager, Mrs. Joseph FE. Winterbotham, art director and stage manager, Olive Grover and Ralph Varney, assisted by A. Montague Ferry and Burton Atwood, Jr., in charge of the lighting. The very attractive set- ting was further made possible hy the courtesy of Henry Ilg of Winnetka and the Johnson -Meier company of Chicago. The result of attendance at this first play should be a firm resolve to attend all the rest of the Community Drama club plays without fail. Announcement has been made of the marriage of Miss Katherine Kane, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harold Kane of the Lake Shore Drive hotel, and Robert Cavanaugh, Wednes- day, November 12, in the Kane's apartment. Mr. and Mrs. Cavanaugh are building a house in Wilmette, where they will live.

About 125 mem- bers of the association were present. The business of the organization was transacted speedily, current problems be- ing disposed of in a manner satisfactory to all concerned. Then followed a pro- gram of vocal and instrumental music that was unusually attractive because of its artistic and, at the same time, infor- mal nature. The entertainers of the eve- ning comprised a male quartet and that violinist so well-known and much-admir- ed in Winnetka, Mrs. Harvey Brewer. The quartet was made up of four ex- cellent singers, Sherman Orwig, Frank Root, Harold Hoyt, and William Schnei- der. Their accompanist . was Dorothy Root. The songs presented included: "Bells: of St. Mary's" "Marcheta," "Massa's in the cold, cold ground," and a series of extemporaneous "How do you do" jingles. According to report, the audience was greatly pleased by the quartet's work. Mrs. Brewer, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Arthur Dean, gave two numbers, "Orientale" and "The Harp that once through Tara's Halls." The association is indebted to both women for their geenrous assistance At this meeting there was much dis- cussion favoring the giving of an en- tertainment in the near future similar to the musical skit of a few years ago. No definite decision was reached as to the nature or date of this proposed af- fair, it being decided to take the matter under advisement. The evening closed with dancing.
