Festival. -
A policeman's weekend
Simple fun in Blyth play
The third play of the
season at the Blyth Summer
Festival premiered Tuesday
night and drew repeated
curtain calls from ' an en-
thusiastic audience.
McGillicuddy's Lost
Weekend written by Blyth
author Keith Roulston
pokes some simple fun at
life in a small town.
It's based on the antics of
Hamhocks police chief
Ezekiel McGillicuddy as he
is portrayed each month by
Roulston in his magazine,
the Village Squire.
The play covers a com-
plete weekend when
McGillicuddy the police
chief tries in vain to get
away for a well earned
holiday. -
In the chief's role, Layne
Coleman was only 30
minutes away from his
holiday when the play
opened. He .is relaxed in
dreaming about his up-
coming fishing:trip but he
isn't upset when councillor
Hemple catches him reading
a Playboy magazine
The chief is lectured on his
inability to set the pace for
high morality in the town
and is warned by the
councillor that she is going to
challenge long-time Mayor
Lumpy on .a morality
campaign with the chiefs
actions to be revelled
Mcdillicuddy who in the
past had issuing. tickets as
one of his toughest Jobs

Junior disappears. -
