To the Ladies
&intillating with wit and humor, Kaufmann and Connelly's comedy, "To the Ladies," opened the University drama season on November 13 and 14. Based on the fact that a wife is often the greatest reason for her husband's success, the play transports the hero, Leonard Beebe, from a mere clerk to secretary of the president of a large piano concern-by his wife's efforts. The ever entertaining John Thomas found an ideal vehicle for his talent in the role of Beebe. Fine support in the part of his wife, Elsie, was contributed by Catherine Brandt. Outstanding in the play was the work of Elinor Jacobs as Mrs. Kincaid, who is also discovered to be the guiding force behind her husband, John Kincaid, admirably played by Harry Robb. Howard Altnow, John Milner, Casady Taylor, Rollin Hunter, Franklyn Bovey, Winfred Janssen, Walter Pratt, Edwin Ostroot, Marthalene Tanner, Robert Herrick, and Clayton Spear all did interesting bits in this comedy. Guests in the banquet scene included Nina Varian, Rosamond Tenney, and Sara Throckmorton.
