'Ah Wilderness'
Crippled Duck Flies
At Howell
By Geo. Moyer
A supposedly crippled duck got off to a flying start at
the University Howell Theatre Wednesday night.
The duck, Eugene O'Neill's "Ah Wilderness" was
supposed to be crippled because most of the theatre's
experienced hands are appearing in "The Taming of the
Shrew for the Lincoln Centennial, and therefore are not
available.
But director Joseph Baldwin has taken a group of
very promising newcomers plus a few experienced recruits
and welded a production which is a good evening s enter
tainment.

from the Attorney General's office at the statehouse, and

Wenstrand carries a scene of his own, however, in the third

over a rather large slice of ham. It is unfortunate that ado
lescents must always be portrayed as silly instead of being
allowed to be as serious as they obviously take themselves.

Summing lip: If Dr. Baldwin will keep these newcomers

next three years.
