Bill Clements said Thursday. During his weekly news confer ence the governor said he had been asked by the former president’s sup porters for his opinion on Ford’s pos sible attempt at the presidency. Clements said he had two reasons for recommending Ford not run. “I told him he had no way of get ting on the Texas ballot, and no chance of getting any Texas dele gates,” Clements said. Feb. 4 was the deadline for pres idential candidates to qualify for the May 3 Texas primary. The governor also said the Repub lican Party would have been divided if Ford had chosen to run. Clements denied media reports that former Gov. John Connally had been instrumental in helping him persuade Ford not to run. Clements also said he thinks any Republican who gets the nomination can win in November. “Mr. Carter will be in deep trou ble by mid-summer when all his chickens come home to roost.” Clements said Carter’s foreign and economic policies have begun to col lapse and the president could be in grave danger in the next few months. Clements said he only plans to campaign in the state for the Repub lican presidential candidate. ing for a sellout crowd at Rudder Auditorium Thursday night. Despite audio problems that gar bled the first scene, the performance went well. Forrest Tucker was excellent as Cap’n Andy, the captain of the “Cot ton Blossom,” a showboat playing the Mississippi in the 1880s. The story revolved around the ro mance of Cap’n Andy’s daughter. Magnolia (played by Pamela Kalt), and Gaylord Ravenal (Tom McKin ney), a riverboat gambler, as they fall in love, get married and go to Chica go, only to split when he leaves be cause of his failure as a gambler. Finally, they are reunited on the “Cotton Blossom” for a happy en ding. McKinney was enchanting as Ravenal. His voice was strong and clear and he /made a dashing entr ance that captured more hearts than that of Magnolia. In their first song, “Only Make Believe, ” Kalt started out weak and was drowned out by the orchestra — a problem that recurred at times dur ing the show. The orchestra was often too loud, causing difficulty in understanding some of the lyrics in the songs. One of the high points of the play was the rendition of “OT Man Riv er,” sung by Joe (Robert Mosley), an old black riverboat hand. The lyrics of the song capture the feelings of depression and helplessness experi- Review enced by blacks of the era. Mosley’s resonant bass voice car ried deep feeling and meaning into the lyrics. Joe’s wife, Queenie (Butterfly McQueen), was hilarious. Her cack ling laughter and unique bustling movements were amusing in them selves, but she also put on a good performance. Julie (Adrienne Angel), the tragic mulatto show boat actress, personi fies longsuffering and sacrifice. Hei performance was believable and hei song “Bill” showed that she was stil capable of love and understanding even though it seemed she had nc friends left at all. Angel’s singing o this number was enough to picture the man she loved as she sang. Cap’n Andy’s wife, Parthy 0ear Bruno), is the classic over- protective, meddling mother. Cap’n Andy makes light of her constant nagging and worrying, providing some of the play’s lighter moments. The performance was well staged, and the scene changes were ex ecuted quickly by means of well- designed rolling sets. The costumes were appropriate, enhancing the appeal of the story with colors to match the mood of thei scene; drab colors for the more som-| her scenes and bright colors for thei song-and-dance routines.
