la.

blouses or dress for a girl, or
trousers for a boy, underwear, pa
jamas and small personal articles.

in first* cldss = condition—mended
and cleaned. : :

among some of the youngest actors
in the history of the University
Theatre, have captured leading
reles in the forthcoming universi
ty production of “Life With Fath
er” which opens a hilarious 1948-
’49 theatre season at the Fine Arts
Building on November 16.

and Mrs., John P. Bodurent, 175
Waverly Court, plays the part of
Whitney, a lively and active young
man of 13 who would rather play
baseball than study his catechi
sms. Alston Steiner, son of Mrs.
P. A. Steiner, 825 Hill Street, has
the part of Harlan, the youngest
member of the Day clan. He likes
baseball too, but leans toward
Tiddle-dy-winks. '

ing very well in their parts neith
er one has any ambitions of be
coming an actor. On the contrary,
Emmett plans to be a taxider
mist or to go into the study of
snakes when he grows up. Alston
hasn’'t quite decided yet what he
wants to do. Both are promising
actors though, and they have liv
ened the usually business like at
mosphere of practice with their
laughter and scuffling.
The boys are not the only ones
in the cast from Athens. Oliver
Land, son of Mr, and Mrs. O. B.
Land Sr., 392 Pope Street, a vet
eran of the University Theatre
has the coveted role of Father,
and co-starred with him in the

gie, last of a long line of maid:
who are frightened so of Father
that they soon leave to find other
jobs, Happily though, Carolyn is
still with us at the end of the
