DOUGLAS NEWS “JNNER CIRCLE" PLEASES LARGE DOUGLAS AUDIENCE Eerie. flickers of light in the bas ment of an apparently deserted | nouse giving an air of mystery which was enhanced by a mummy e and by the Egyptian paintings on secret pannels formed the setting for the mystery drama “Inner Circle” pre- sented in Douglas high school in the new Gym last night. The mys- tery was further inecreased by the sudden disappearance of key charac- ters into secret passage ways. Ably coached by Miss Eleanor Warren, and staged with assistance of othér members of the Faculty, the students ably acted their parts to arouse and hold the audience tense with interest. Elmer Savikko was very convinc- | ing in his role of detective Sergeant Wwilliams of the police force, bullying all those whom he suspected to be guilty of the murders committed. James Devon and Frank Cashen were members of his police who wmusingly bungled the search for the criminals. Robert Fleek ably played the part of Jonas Norris, the gem smuggler and thief. James and Mathilda Ford- ney, the loyal servants of -Norris were portrayed by Harry Cashen and Alfreda Fleek, who effectively advanced the action of the plot Jonas Norris planned to escape from his enemies with the aid of his nephew who was somewhat reluctant to aid in the plan. Gordon Wahto as the dashing young doctor gave a fine performance. The plot was com- Jlicated by the arrival of Norris' niece Granya Howe. Christine Nor- ris, the deserted wife, who traced her husband to his hiding place ang appeared that evening. Doris Balog as Chri®tine dramatically portrayed her role. Kastamuni, the antique dealer, was fittingly characterized by Glen Kronquist. Borghild Havdahl enter- tained the audience in his comely part as Jasmine, the colored maid The climax of surprises came when the nonchalant Graydon Mc Kelvie (Glenward Kirkham) reveal- ed that Phillip Norris was the one who committed the murders and was also head of the dreaded “Inner Circle.” Aiding Miss Warren who also had charge of the costuming for the play were Calvin Pool, who handled the make-up, Mr. Schlegel the scenery and Mr. Ladd, lighting. The ush were Solveig Havdahl and Dorc Langseth. To Miss Warren was pre- sented a beautiful bouguet as a gift of appreciation from the cast and student body After -the play a party was held in the school by the faculty, high arade. Dancing and refreshments were enjoyed. BACCALAUREAZE SUNDAY e LS8 | At 2 o'cleck tomorrow u{lvrnoun.‘ laureate services for the grad- | AFTERNOON | . Metrlc land measure . Flaxen fabrics .
