Edith Ramstad, as the only other woman in the play, also. is directing. Best known to Bismarck audiences of the male members of the cast is Arthur Cayou, who has appeared in a number of plays. He will be remem- bered particularly as one of the leads in “The Dover Road.” Cast in “Candida,” as Mr. Burgess, Mr. Cayou plays the part of a blus- tering English business tyrant of the "90s who increases the wages of his mill hands only when it is necessary to get city contracts. Called a scoun- drel by his minister son-in-law, he, nevertheless, gets along with Rev. James Morell surprisingly well. Sessions Has Lead The part of Reverend Morell, Can- did’s husband, is played by Lieut. Will A. Sessions, Jr., chaplain at Fort Lin- coln, Reverend Morell combines his religion with a fervent socialism. Broad-minded and sincere, he con- siders his wife the acme of all earthly goodness and sweetness and is made miserable by the mere hint that she may no longer care for him. Most of Lieutenant Sessions’ con- nections recently with theatrical pro- ductions have been with religious drama. In some he has appeared as an actor, while he has written and directed others. While a student at the University of Arkansas, Fayette- ville, Ark, he was a member of the Blackfriars, campus drmatic organiza- tion, His apparance as Morell in “Candida” will be his first appearance before Bismarck audiences. Another newcomer in local drama- tic circles is George Anderson, Jr., who is cast as the curate, Alexander Mill, assistant to Morell, Mr. Anderson was active in dramatics in Minneapolis. Monley Again Cast Another member of the cast well known to Bismarck is Fred Monley, who has been a member both of the Community Players and of the Cathe- dral Players since he came to Bis- marck. As a member of the Dakota Playmakers at the university, he ap- peared in eight plays. As Eugene Marchbanks in “Can- dida,” Mr, Monley plays the party of ‘an extremely lovesick poet. Reserved seats for the play may be| had in exchange for regular tickets at Woodmansee's Stationery store Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. { Weather Renort | {over the Great Lakes ican gunboat Panay when it was Lieut.
