List of Hoosiers Who

By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON The air will be charged with memories Dec. 23 when the Princeton Triangle Club presents its golden anniver-

sary production, “Once Over

Lightly,” at the Murat

Theater. Along with popular tunes from the current extravaganza there will be nostalgic reminders of past

shows in which local Triangle alumni have taken part. ' Patrons again are to hear those hits of the preswing era—

“Floating on a Marcel Wave” from That Pass in the Night” from “Drake’

“Tobasco Land” (1905), “Ships s Drum (1923), “Living on Love”

from “The Golden Dog” (1929) and “East of the Sun” and “Love on

a Dime” from “Stags at Bay” (1934). Indianapolis has contributed to

£ Booth Tarkington, its first president,

the Triangle roster not only but a sizeable quota of chorus

“sirls,” composers of books and music, stage technicians and mu-

sicians. Mr. Tarkington, by the way,

wrote the first play, “Honorable

Julius Caesar,” and sang in some of the early productions.

Richard Barbee Once Played Lead

George L. Denny sang and danced in two Triangle shows at the turn of the century. Richard Barbee, now in New York, played the

lead in “Tobasco Land.”

Mr. Barbee, whose toe-dancing was an

important factor in the show’s success, claims he acquired his technique by jumping out of bed early one morning and landing per-

pendicularly on his toes.

She is a cousin of Mrs. Owén Mothershead

and was reared by her mother, Mrs. John R. Wilson. _ Ganvin M. Brown was stage manager in 1907 and, 1908; Ralph Tockwood helped compose the music and traveled with the 1912 show; from 1926 to 1929 George Newton sang important roles in

Triangle productions. Norris Hought

on, who was club vice president

in 1930, designed the scenery for “Zuider Zee” (1928), “The Golden

Dog” “Tiger Smiles” (1939) and “Spanish Blades” (1931).

William

H. Stafford Jr., local entertainment chairman for the current show,

was coauthor of the book for “Spa

nish Blades” and sang in the

chorus of the 1929 and 1931 productions. “Charles 'P. Emerson, now an interne in a Boston hospital, played in the orchestra in 1930 and 1931. Joshua Logan, 1931 Triangle presi-
