Among | these were Maida and Joseph La-| zarovici, Janice and George White | gave unstintingly of their time and | effort in maintaining the profes-| sional degree of performance es- tablished by the group's very first oe of “Squaring the Cir- ie” This established reputation of top quality performances, accomplish- ed with far less facilities than that available to other little theatre groups, has given the Key West Players a most enviable standing in the little theatre world and it is known in practically every little theatre in the country. Today, the Players stand on the brink of expansion demanded by the growth of their community. The Barn, with its limited sea‘ capacity of 96 persons, must be enlarged, or new larger quarters obtained. Since the Players are strictly a| non-profit organization, and the in- come from one show is spent on the next one to assure the best possible performance for Key West | theatre goers, it is financially im- possible for them to obtain new quarters (not at today’s prices, any way). Therefore the Barn must be en- larged and permission has been obtained from the Woman's Club to do this, at the Players’ expense, of course, The Players are now putting on a concerted membership drive which would contribute toward the build- ing fund, and, at the same time, enable the group to pay the higher royalties demanded for new Broad- way releases, such as “‘My Three Angels.” Until the expansion program is completed, however, the number of memberships available must neces- sarily be limited to the present e of the Barn, and all interested in seeing good dramas, profession- ally performed, in Key West are urged to avail themselves of these memberships, A subscribing membership for one year is less than the cost of four tickets to season performan- ces at regular prices. In fact, the membership card is good for four free admissions to the season's plays. The holder is a full member in good standing with complete vot- ing privileges and the right to par- ticipate in the Players’ year-round events These memberships will be good, | too, for the Players’ first produc- tion of the season, that well known comedy, “Harvey,” which will | open at the Barn on Monday, Nov- eber 15, as well as “My Three An- | gels,” scheduled for production in | December. . No invitations are being sent out for people to join, all one need do is ask any member, or stop in at the Fred Astaire School at 534 Du- val Street, or phone Mickey Ren- na at 2-3323, or Emily Goddard, ie membership chairman at 2- 3137, Just contact any one of the a- bove, tell them how many mem- berships you wish and you'll be able to pick up the cards at Betty Ann Stationers when you make your reservations for “Harvey.” TEENAGERS TELL WHY THEY DRINK EAST LANSING, Mich. w — A group of high school students, | taking part in an alcoholic educa-| tion conference, gave these rea-| sons why teen-agers drink: “They like to think they are big shots — they want to prove they’re|ure of baby’s bath water.
