THE SANDPIPER Players completed another successful run of a courtroom drama last Saturday evening in the Old Court House Building. This time the acting troupe performed Witness for the Prosecution, in which the cast showed the audience its exceptional acting talents and were able to do a dramatical per-

forma nee with ah occasional humotfJW twist. The play's main performers. Mike Boyle and Lee Layton, gave superlative performances. As in last year's play, The Night of January 16th. a jury was picked from volunteers of the audience. I was one of the fortunate ones selected to sit on the jury in both of the plays. , In last year's play the verdict was actually decided by the jury and I, as a member of the audience, was selected to be the foreman. However, in "Witness" an actress portrayed the foreman during all six performances ana the verdict was always the same, even if it differed from that of her fellow jurors. Before the conclusion of this play, the audience learned that the jury's verdict was wrong. THE COURT House
