Facial Contours Of Witch,
Cat, Dog Are Matched
By Professor Halstead
By GLORIA NISHON
For the first time in Play Produc-
tion history, the group will in its cur-
rent effort, Maeterlinck's "The Blue
Bird," attempt to achieve a semi-
realistic effect through the use of
masks on major characters.
Prof. William P. Halstead, direc-
tor of the Maeterlinck masterpiece
which will open Wednesday at the
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre, has
spent long, tedious hours, in complet-
ing the three masks that will be used
in a production requiring charac-
terizations of a dog, a cat and a
witch.
The first step in the work of cre-
ating unusual masks, explained. Pro-
fessor Halstead in an interview yes-
terday, is to cover the face of the
wearer-to-be with cold cream. This
serves to protect the skin and to
make it easy to lift the plaster cast
off the face. Tissue paper is placed
over the eyebrows and eyelashes so
it will not leave a hairless face when
the plaster is pulled off.
In applying the plaster of paris,
Professor Halstead does not use the
usual method of putting straws in
his subject's nose' to permit breath-
ing. Instead, he applies the plaster dra
very carefully around the nose so it the
does not clog up the nostrils. cre
Formation Of Negative in
Once the plaster has been applied, Ha
operations must cease for 12 to 15
minutes while the preparation dries.
When this is lifted off a perfect cast
of the face is obtained. This, in mask
terminology, is a negative.
The next step is to fill in the nos-
tril holes with clay or plastocine so
that there will be a complete cast in-
to which the plaster for the mold-or
positive-must be poured.
The positive is then obtained by '
breaking off the negative. On this
moldsis built up the mask which will
be used in the production. Instead
of the papier mache which is gener-
ally used, Professor Halstead has ;
used laminated paper for his work.Tpr
This is a porous paper which has
been soaked in water and coated
with a glue and paste mixture.
Are Partial Masks
Another innovation, so far as
masks used on this campus are con-
cerned, is the factthat all three of
them will be partial masks. This
has been necessary because the
characters who wear them are of
major importance, and freedom for
mouth apd chin are necessary for
clear speaking. "Full masks have
a tendency to blur the voice and
make it sound hollow," Professor
Halstead declared.
The 'partial masks will also make
it an easier task for the witch to
make her two-second onstage trans-
formation from the ugly old crone
to a beautiful young woman.
(A'-Mary Louise Thomas. 20, with
light brown hair and green eyes is
looking for another husband after
trying matrimony twice.
Her quest led her to the Evening
News with a classified ad which read:
"Wanted: A husband for girl of
20, with light brown hair, green eyes.
five feet five inches. weighing 105I
pounds. Fair complexioned, good
background and has a child 2' years
old. Man must be five feet nine
all spor~ts.,
Instead of carrying the ad, the
News appeared with her story, which
told of two marriages and two divorces
from the same man.
"I've worked at getting a husband
long enough," she explained. "Either
the men or I lack something."
Within a few houvs Mary Louise
received 22 telephone calls, two
special delivery letters and four per-
sonal calls.

Here Professor Halstead is just beginning the process of making
amatic masks. He has removed the plaster of paris negative from
face of Btty Jane Schumann, Grad., but the protective coat of cold
-am may still be seen. Miss Schumann will play the part of the eat
the Maeterlinck production. After this initial procedure, Professor
dstead must wait about 15 minutes for the negative to dry.

This is the last stage in the making of dramatic masks. When
completed only make-up need be applied to give the final effect as
seen in the production. This mask, that of the dog in 'The Blue Bird,'
is here being fitted to Don Diamond, '42, by Director Halstead..The mask
is only partial, because a maximum amount of freedom must be
allowed the actor who is required to speak clearly through the necessary
obstruction. It is especially important in this play as those using the
masks are major characters.

Three Top Editors
Of 'Mademoiselle'
To Edit Gargoyle
For the first time in college maga-
zine history, Gargoyle is being edited
by its guests for December, the edi-
tors of the nationally-famous MADE-.
MOISELLE, which is the subject of
this year's "take off' issue.
Traditionally, Gargoyle yearly par-
odies a magazine of national reputa-
tion. but by way of innovation, for
this issue, three of the country's lead-
ing career women, all editors of
MADEMOISELLE, have contributed
material.
In respect to these articles Gar-
goyle has turned the tables on
MADEMOISELLE's August "college
issue," for which guest editors are
selected from colleges throughout the
country.
Betsy Talbot Blackwell, editor-in-
chief and one of the country's most
successful business women, has pre
pared the case of the editor and the
guest editor. Strictly for women will
be "Fashion Crumbs" from the type-
writer of Jean Condit, an associate
editor and nationally-known fashion
authority, and Geri Trotta MADEM-
OISELLE cppywriter, will give the
college woman a summary, from her
experience and knowledge gained
from contacts, of the hows of success.
But in spite of the fact that this
Gargoyle is designed along the lines
of a women's magazine and will be
nrmari concerned with matters1
