dian cast including producer and
director. Third performance of
the festival was “Othello.”

A remarkable thing about the
Stratford Theatre is its Shake-
spearian stage. This stage pro-
trudes out into the audience and
the spectators view the action
from three ‘sides. Actors also
used parts of the audience for
stage and in one play a row of
seats was left empty so that cast
members could run up the aisle
and through the seats back to
the stage.

cial attention given to detail.
When actors are so close
their audience costumes must

The whole trip made by each

student was sponsored by the
Canada Council. All expenses
were paid including special

transportation by the

Council Train”. Mrs. Stevenson
said that the whole thing was
excellently organized to’the last
detail.

member of the Williams Lake
Players Club and has taught
drama in the high’ school in
past years.

More about
calf roping

Continued from Page One

Many of the cowboys
had to use both ropes.

Leila Fowler and Spike Han-
nah were the fastest on the
pick-up wher they won the res-
cue race. Mike Isnardy gal-
oped his mount to the far end
of the arena to pick up Tom
Denny for second place in the
rescue event.

Avflimsy piece of crepe paper
that must not be broken was
held by. two riders as they gal-
oped round a stake in the rib-
bon race. George and Bill Wil-
kie came out of the dust and
crossed the finish line first, fol-
lowed by George, sr., and George
Tucker, who took number two
spot. \

The ropers went after those
running calves again when the
amateurs started swinging their
coils. Marvin Gruenwald tied
up his animal in 42 seconds to
win the amateur roping card.
Hank Kryeen roped the calf
and tied a cross in 1 min. 4.6
secs to be second.

The youngsters showed their
talents in musical hats. Here
the boys rode around a stake on
top of which was perched their
hat. When the music stopped,
the contestants dashed for the
stake to pick up their hat. Gor-
don Garbutt was’ first to un-
cover the stake and cover his
head. He was followed by
David Maurice.

The loop was dropped and
the steer faced in only 7.3 secs.
by Chris English, top man in
steer facing. Dave Perry made
a close second, roping and turn-
ing his steer in a time of 7.8
secs. :

A total of over 75 contest
ants entered the day's events
and put on a program of good
entertainment. Although the
crowd which turned out was not
a large one, it was a very ap-
preciative audience. Admission
was free and later a hat was
pased around for donations .to
the fund for Nona Bareson.
