After serving St. Mary’s for almost 18 years
as Dean of Students, Miss Edith Richardson has
retired from that position and has been awarded

service and distinction. In appreciation for every
thing she has done, a Pa^y was given in her
honor Wednesday night in the SMC cafetena.
Miss Richardson, Miss “R”, was announced
as the new Dean of Students m the St. Mary s

DeLapp Reviews Play
By Beth DeLapp
With a minimum amount of scenery and
props and a maximum amount of talent, the
Drama Club opened “A Wilder Evening” for
a four night run on Tuesday, April 3, 1973.
This trilogy of Thornton Wilder’s works pre
sented three separate but closely related themes.
Love, death, and life were dealt with respect
ively in exerpts from “Hello Dolly” and “Our
Town,” and in the play “A Happy Journey.”
'The performance of Celia Creasy as Dolly
Levi in the “Hello Dolly” segment of the pro
duction provided a bright opening for the eve
ning. Miss Creasy portrayed the role with the
grace and ease of a i»lished actress.
As Ma Kirby in “A Happy Journey,” Nancy
Stamey stole the show. She was perfectly cast as
the typical, loving mother. Mrs. Stamey’s inter
pretation of her character lent humor and style
to the sometimes amateurish production. With
the help of a fine supporting cast, this excerpt
was the highlight of the night.
, The last act of “Our Town,” deals with the
problem of death in a iioignant and tender
manner. This segment of the Wilder anthology
was effectively presented by some able actors,
especially considering the demanding roles they
had to play. Boo Devane and her excellent sup
porting cast caused the audience to look at them
selves and wonder whether they really appreci
ated life.
Mr. Harry Callahan should be commended
for a job well done. He has managed to as
semble good material and talent, with the re
sult being an entertaining production. Perhaps a
“wilder” evening could have been spent else
where, but never a more enjoyable one!
