Trying to find an expression of appreciation for the many services rendered—- above and beyond the call of duty—is not an easy task. However, just as final curtain calls must be taken and the set struck, so the “Drama of the Class of 1950” must end, and our active association is over. These seniors have been a part of an exciting expansion program in the college and the department. We know too well that without their untiring efforts the fine records made in the clinic, the reading hours, the radio workshops and our several theaters would not have been possible. The best wishes of their Alma Mater and their Department goes to each of the seventy Speech Majors who will march into Jenison Fieldhouse on June 4. 0 Our second salute goes to the Graduate Students. This program tonight degree of confusion on our “Dramatis Personae,” here are a few salient graduates will earn a part of their Masters of Arts Degrees by contributing to a Major Term Play. Miss Alexanian’s portrayal of “Elizabeth” is a novel innovation in the field of graduate study and is a compliment to the School of Graduate Studies in recognizing the creative type of thesis in the Fine Arts. While Mr. Andreason’s project is more often recognized as a thesis subject, the Opportunity of actually designing and executing the settings is not always possible. We feel fortunate in being able to capitalize on the talents of these promising theater aspirants. The results you are seeing tonight, however, represents but a small portion of the total graduate program in the department. There are over fifty students registered for graduate study in the fields of clinic, general speech, radio, and drama. 0 Our next salute is to “Elizabeth the Queen.” Lest there be some slight degree of contusion on our “Dramatis Personae,” here are a few salient facts about “Goon Queen Bess.” As the play opens, Elizabeth has been on the throne of England for forty years. She is surrounded by an able group of counsellors and nobles. Lord Burleigh, her most trusted advisor, heads the list, with his crafty son, Sir Robert Cecil, a close second. Sir Walter Raleigh is one of the dashing figures of the court, in contrast to the scholarly 511‘. Francis Bacon. Robert Devereaux, better known as Lord Essex, is the court favorite at the moment. He was the third of Elizabeth’s ardent suitors, and was for many years a frequent court visitor. He was ambitious and greedy for power. He did lead an expedition to Ireland which he mismanaged badly. He did lead a revolution against the queen and for this was captured, sent to the Tower, tried for treason, and was executed February 2:), 1601. Whether Elizabeth died of grief or of old age history has never determined. This great queen failed steadily following his execution and died early in 1601 after a brilliant reign of forty-five years. Anderson has taken liberties with history but has created one of the most exciting love dramas of our theater. 0 Our next salute is to you! How would you like to be assured of the same seat on the same night for our entire season of plays? In response to many requests, a season ticket sale is being instituted for next year. More information will be available during the summer and next fall the campaign will be on. Be sure we have your name and address so we may contact you then. 0 Our final salute is to the future. Once again we are happy to welcome to our campus the many high school students who help make our annual High School Drama Day such an exciting adventure. Playing a special matinee just for them is an experience that the casts of the Spring Term Play eagerly anticipate. Their day is a full one ending with a special showing of “Elizabeth The Queen.” We hope this year’s program is one they will long remember. Perhaps within the not too far distant future some of these young men and women will be slipping into the major roles being left vacant by those we are hailing as we write (‘ ’50)! to this season. dob. 255 d ' 6322"?"- JAPTE‘R II is a" W}: gFTOEYfCTIG. m numwxvz‘ta ‘5 Ah our Li‘vq ‘i' "i 3.23:?
