The Identity of “The Bat" of course, comes with the final curtain. Kate Blancke, in the part of the wise and undauntable spinster, is decidedly well received by the andl ence. All members of the cast, how- ever, from Anderson, the detective, played by Rodney Ranous, to Lizzie, the perpetually frightened maid, played by Marietta Craig, are decid- edly succennful In thetr parte.
