In the photograph were Ann Dewes, Helen Deig, Dorothy Smity, Carolyn Wheatley, Jus-tine Flittner, Jeanette O’Daniel and Sally Morris.
Camie Ziemer directed the production, performed on Nov. 21, 22 and 23 by the Catholic Theatre Guild.
The photograph is among hundreds of images, some with sidentifications, some unknown, in the archives of Donahue Studios in Evansville.
