Monica Salazar 66 lithe Spirit.” What? “Blithe Spirit.” It means happy, cheerful, carefree. it is the art and theater department's current production at Saint Freshman, Floward College. Every semester Saint Mary’s produces a play on campus at Moreau Center inside The Li “Blithe Spirit” was written during the 1940s by Noel Coward. It is the story of Charles, a ma Ruth, his second wife, after his first wife dies. He holds a seance in his house with Madam Ai obtain information for a book he is writing. During the seance, his past wife, Elvira, who has been years, becomes re-materialized. Then ... well, I can’t tell you that. Let's just say things then begin control. This is an improbable farce performed in three acts that guarantees many laughs. The talented actors who make this play come to life on stage are Molly Burns as Elvira, David Car “I went to one, ‘Rosencrantz Dombrow as Madam Arcarti and Mandi Moburg as Ruth. and Guildenstern are Dead,’ “Saint Mary’s went all out for this play.

It is all student-run except for the directi because I read ‘Hamlet’ and I is Mike Morris. Every other semester he directs a play, with Katie Sullivan directing for the other semesh wanted to view the play.” Scenery and lighting are both run by Thomas Boelman. Students in art classes helped to paint the enact the special effects that this show promises. The costumes are all made to resemble the styles i designed and made by Tatjana Longerot. Luis Nunez “They are quite extravagant and beautiful. They were made special for each of us. It is really fun to these wonderful costumes,” said Burns. Freshman, Alumni Since the play is a British farce, the cast had to listen to dialect tapes and learn the proper accents but to the cast, it was definitely worth it. “The play has been a lot of fun to be involved in. Everyon has been a real bonding experience,” Moburg said. The only part that no one seems to enjoy is the makeup. “Since I play a deceased character, I entire body in gray makeup in order to look realistic. It takes a long time and is hard to wash i mented.

My dad was neither a theater critic nor a fanatical lover of the stage, but he had an appreciation for the arts. This acceptance grew into a tolerance for all of the really bad theater that I became involved in as a result of my childhood exposure. He was front and center for my acting debut, as a talking angel in the third grade Christmas Pageant. He sat through my lesser roles, as “Wells Fargo Wagon Dancer” (in "Music Man” in the fifth grade) and a “tornado” (in “The Wiz” in high school). He saw me flub lines and warble songs, and came out a stronger man because of it. In retrospect, I must have been painful to behold in some of the plays, but I never heard it from him. Unlike my mother, who was grounded in reali­ ty, everything 1 did was “perfect” in the eyes of my dad. I recall my junior year of high school as an example of his loyalty to my act­ ing endeavors. 1 was the housekeeper in “Man of LaMancha,” and cut glass with the solo I sang near the end. My father came every night, armed with The Wall Street Journal (to read during the intermissions), and sat in the front row. 1 found it comforting, rather than unnerving, when I looked out and saw him. He had a smile on his face, the likes of which have only been repro­ duced when Notre Dame has a winning season. “It was great,” he swore, and “the entire play was worth seeing again and again.” I’m not sure who was the better actor, me or him, but either way ray ego enjoyed the attention. Fast forward to college ... Although I still enjoyed the attention of being on the stage, competition became more keen, and even chorus parts went to peo­ ple who could actually sing. My times on stage are few and far between now, but 1 do still enjoy watching plays. Most recently, 1 went with my dad last Christmas to see “The Nutcracker” at Arie Crown Theater downtown. The time-honored tradition continued, but with a few changes to keep things lively. For one thing, because of obvious reasons, dad was no longer able to lift me up to see the musicians warm up in the pit. Also, the Diet Coke and Raisenettes failed to hit the spot like they had done once before. However, the most notable mark of maturing came when dad fell asleep during act two. He started snoring loudly, and the women in front of me asked me to “please keep my husband quiet.” How could I have passed as the (trophy) wife of a 50- year-old man when I couldn’t even get a beer during intermission? But I chose to ignore the women's comment, and the questions it raised, and focused on the real issue. My dad was still my favorite theater partner, even after all of these years. What does this have to do with “Blithe Spirit?” Aside from this being the weekend of the play at Saint Mary’s, it is Senior Dads’ Weekend as well. I, for one, cannot wait to take my dad to yet another round of the Meany play- watching experience. The play will be a memory that dad will always cherish ... well, if he regains consciousness after we take him to Liquid Lunch at Bridget’s beforehand. Long live the arts, and long live my dad.

For their fourth year straight, Pasquerilla East will play in Notre Dame Stadium. This time, however, they will not face the reigning champion Lyons Hall. Defeating the Lions 8-0 on Sunday, the Pyros will advance to the champi­ onship game on Nov. 23 to face Lewis. Emotions ran high on both sides going into this game. For the past three years, Lyons has beaten P.E. in the champi­ onship game. However, a loss and a tie during the regular season put Lyons behind in the standings this year and brought the two teams together early. “It’s awesome to win this game,” said Pyro Melissa Gorman. “We played tough, and they played tough too, but it’s great to finally beat them.” Lyons looked strong in the early por­ tion of the first half. Although their first possession was without success, they held P.E. to only five yards and forced them to punt. Lyons then put together a strong run, gaining two first downs. On a third down, however, quarter­ back Kathy Tschanz was tripped up for a loss of about eight yards. A dropped backward lateral on the next play gave P.E. possession at midfield. The Observer/Joe Stark On the second and fourth downs, the Pasquerilla East was only able to score once, but this proved to be enough to defeat Lyons for a chance to play in the stadium again.

But this strong passing game. “Our offense, both the run and the pass, kept the pressure on,” said Sorin’s Alex Scheidler. “The key for us this game was the offensive line. They gave our quarterback the time to work out the passes and our backs the room to run.” It would only be a matter of time before they broke through completely to get on the board. “It just clicked,” commented Sorin running back Tim Slattery. It did indeed click early in the second half as a Scheidler touchdown reception was the only score of the day. Sorin pushed a 60-yard drive against the Manor defense, including a seven-yard first
