St. Mary’s Will Present
“Annie Get Your Gun”
The Dramatic’s Club and the
Orchesis Dance group are working
together on the forthcoming pro
duction of Annie Get Your Gun.
This will be a simplified version of
the Ethel Alerman vehicle of some
sixteen years ago which remains a
popular favorite today.
The New York Herald Tribune
had this to say when the musical
was appearing on Broadway, “ ‘An
nie Get A^our Gun’ is as fresh as a
daisy and there is such comic mag
ic in the show that it does not need
musical comedy ornamentation.”
Alembers of the Dramatic’s Club
appearing in tbe leading roles are
Patricia Armstrong as “Annie”;
Martha Fowler, Flo Pitts, and
Lynette Smith as Annie’s brothers
and sisters; .less MacFarland as
“Dolly”; AA^inborne Shaffer as Dol
ly’s daughter, “AAbnnie.” In ad
dition, here are a number of other
characters completing the large
cast. Charlie Faust, a former N. C.
State student who will be making
his seventh appearance on the St.
Alary’s stage, is playing Frank
Butler. The choreography will be
under the direction of Airs. Bailey
and the Orchesis members. The
scenery is being produced by the
xArt Department under the direction
of Airs. Ben AA^illiams.
Dress rehearsal on Alonday, No
vember 20, will be opened to those
who cannot attend the-performance
on Tuesday, November 21.

Mr* Shell ans Sings
Folk Songs
The assembly program, Thurs
day, October 19, proved to be quite
a treat for the new girls and for
the old girls who were already fa
miliar with the informal and most
entertaining presentation of ballad
and folk-song repertoire of Air.
Herb Shellans. Air. Shellans, who
teaches sociology and anthropology,
has become interested in the his
torical and sociological background
of ballads and folk-songs in the
past few years, and he has a vast
collection of folk music character
istic of different sections of the
United States and the world. AVith
only one necessary prop, his guitar,
for accompaniment, he presented
his selections and their brief back
ground histories. Scattering quips
all the while, he made his usual
“hit” and provided unobtrusive ed
ucational amusement while doing
so. “
