LOCAL AMATEURS IN ELKS PLAY "The Greater American", which will be presented by the Annheim Elks, Thursday and Friday nights, July 10th and 11th, at the high school auditorium, will be given by a strong cast which includes, in addition to members of the local Elks, some professionals and talented amateurs in roles which affordample opportunity for some fine acting. The play is being directed and staged by Victor Donald and Wendell Wilson, both experienced on the professional stage as actors and directors. Taking the part for the production, which will include a matinee particularly intended for the children and school students, Thursday, July 10, will be the following men and women in concivial roles: Tom McFadden, Morris W. Martenet, Jr., J. A. Clayes, Frank B. Harden, O. E. Hanson, William Payne, Jack Cole, George Littlefield, Miss Ellise Jessurun, Miss Betty Thayne, Mr. Victor Donald and Mr. Wendell Wilson. The title role of Abraham Lincoln will be played by Joseph Hummel. There are many glimpses of Abraham Lincoln, "The Greater American," some of them showing this dominating figure in the play in the period of 1861 to 1865 as a great statesman, as a kindly friend, as a humorous philosopher and as a patriot whose love for his country included the North and South; the men who wore the red and gray those who were born and those born in bondage; whose fetters he cast off. Unable incident and episode, handled with keen dramatics ability, characterize the play which introduces a number of the personalities of the period of the Civil War who made history in those days, and also there is a very charming story of 1917 as well as a love story of the days of the hoop skirt and crinoline, and there is an abundance of humor as well as uttering patriotism throughout the play which will set a high mark for local Elk productions.
