FRIDAY, MARCH 20, 1953 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE FIVE Capacity A Annual Play, Dinner Lauds Senior Coeds Before a receptive capacity aud- ience of senior women "Vanity Flair," the 1953 production of Jun- ior Girls' Play, made its debut last night in Lydia Mendelssohn Thea- ter. Before attending the Senior Night performance of the 48th an- nual JGP, senior coeds marched from the General Library to the League Ballroom where they had the traditional senior dinner and entertainment. A skit centered around campus activities familiar to all the wo- men throughout their last four years at the Universityrecalled happy memories for the seniors attending the dinner. The jingle of coins resounded as the unattached women filed out of the ballroom dropping pennies, one for every year of their life, into a wishing well while pinned women carried pins, engaged coeds car- ried candles and married women sucked lemons in keeping with the Senior Night tradition. From the ballroom, the seniors attended JGP in a body and fre- quently used their perogative in demanding repetition of lines or parts in the play and cries of "roll em up" as the junior players stepped on to the stage. The theme of the junior ex- travaganza which has been kept secret from the rest of the cam- pus for over ,six months was re- vealed before the feminine aud- ience. "Vanity Flair" is the story of two sisters, Joan and Chris, from a midwestern town who go off on a vacation-one going East to join a summer stock theater while the other ventures West to work on a dude ranch. Joan, played by Betty Magyar, meets the director of the summer theater, Mary Rea, in her eastern escapades and winds up a star in the "show within a show." The dancing by Joan Ellis and the dancing choruses were receiv- ed with shouts of "repeat" from the audience as they presented the "Candy Kisses" routine and a South American number in color- ful costumes. Changing to the western scene found Chris, Sue Spurrier, involv- ed in a series of "wild west' ad- ventures with a cowboy, played by Aggie Dunn. In an atmosphere of a dude ranch with tpe typical conglom- eration of various types of char- acters that included cowboys, In- dians and the not so common singing dogs, Chris whirled into action seranaded by a unique uke chorus. One of the numbers that brought cheers and whistles from the sen- ior audience last night was "Use Your Vanity Flair Boys" as the 120 members of the cast filled the Mendelssohn stage for the finale glamorus scene. udience Views JGP Two Dances To Highlight Weekend Fun Dental Students, Hillel To Present Carnival, New York Themes Odon to Ball . .
