Priestley's "When We are Married" kept an Oshawa audience amused for three full acts Wednesday night in the Mc- Laughlin Library auditorium, Almost every line of Priestley's turn - of - the - century period comedy drew a laugh, every- thing from mild chuckles to the real thing. Individual roles would be hard to single out as exceptional Everybody did at least a good job of acting, and nearly every- one hit moments of what seemed like inspiration. The three cen- tral roles were supported in depth by the entire cast, all of them comedians, VERSATILE PERFORMANCES As the three most important men in town, Art Elliott, George Rapley and Pat Monahan were in turn dignified, stuffy, properly impressed with themselves, and secure in their 25 years of mar- riage. Their long-suffering wives, Barbara Lloyd, Eileen Thompson and Kathleen Fernley could have stepped right out of a Yorkshire, England tea merchant's home; also secure in their 25 years of marriage, their substantial but sometimes irritating husbands, and their established place in the community as respectable ma- trons. The discovery by the three who married them 25 years ago wasn't qualified (an old gag, but | still funny) provides the plot, sub-| stance and humor of Priestley's laimed amusing and at the same time, in the final scene, discreetly tender; and Janet Stevenson, as the "broad - minded" friend of one of the members of the family could have stepped right out of a Black- pool chorus line, Gerald Forbes, as the young organist hopelessly in '-ve with the niece of one of the stuffy and disapproving oldsters, is sympa- thetically shy in the early scenes but amusing when he throws the bombshell by informing everyone that the parson didn't "av. his license to perform weddings. Catherine Hiller was effective as the sweet young thing, also hope- lessly in love and amused at the goings-on of the "unmarried" older people. Des Bailey as the resonant- voiced minister turned in a brief but credible job as the impatient peacemaker, who, unable to make peace leaves hurriedly, D'Arcy Smith, as the brash reporter, spoofs the society pages of the English press, and Gwen O'Regan, as the sarcastic maid, rounded out the humor, (In fact, O'Regan had the best line in the show, when she complained that everybody said she didn't under- stand things, even though her brother kept rabbits.)

Costumes for the ladies were charming -- skirts out of an old family album, and hats with flowers, ostrich feathers, and ribbons.

In reply to oharges that he and council had refused to alter the election date in January to some time before Christmas, he said that a petition could determine the date. "We can go ahead and change the date if the voters want it that way. The procedure is pretty simple if these fellows want to do something about it," he added.

" "Fifty years ago the ownership of the islands of Quemoy and Matsu would have meant no more to us than the ownership of a couple of rocks washed by the waters of the Pacific on the Chi. nese coast, MINISTER OF LABOR PRESENTS TROPHY Haber and Ronald Farrington were the school winners and received miniature trophies for their excellence in track and field.
