<P>Here's a longshot but a quick google search on Hiratsuka and puppet turned up this:<BR>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</P>

<P>The Hiratsuka Puppet Theatre troupe has twice brought programs to Lawrence and Kansas City, and KU theater students performed a Japanese <EM>kyogen</EM> play in Hiratsuka. (For further information about the theater exchange call <A href="mailto:atsubaki-AT-falcon.cc.ukans.edu">Andrew Tsubaki</A> at (913) 864-3534, 842-3923.</P>

<P>Perhaps Dorothy Hiratsuka came from that city in Japan?</P>

<DIV></DIV>Northern Arizona University in northern Arizona gave us 4 large boxes of 
<DIV></DIV>marionettes and some typewritten scripts to go with them. All they knew was 
<DIV></DIV>that they had been donated to them. The only names I've found on the papers 
<DIV></DIV>are: 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>On scripts: 
<DIV></DIV>Mary Jean Ganton 
<DIV></DIV>Jean Bauer 
<DIV></DIV>Margaret Burns 
<DIV></DIV>Stensgaard Puppets, Los Angeles, CA (at the bottom of 1 script) 
<DIV></DIV>Grace Barnes 
<DIV></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Mrs. M. J. Sutcliffe 
<DIV></DIV>Dorothy Hiratsuka 
<DIV></DIV>Clifford Woodward

<DIV></DIV>On an envelope from Grace Barnes of Manhattan Beach, CA postmarked Feb 14, 
<DIV></DIV>1968: 
<DIV></DIV>Mrs. Paul E. Weaver, Jr., Flagstaff, Arizona 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Some of the puppets have nice heads and costumes and good knee joints, 
<DIV></DIV>although nothing is even close to "mint." Some of the heads are beautifully 
<DIV></DIV>painted but others are pretty crude. Some have an elbow joint; others have a 
<DIV></DIV>one-piece arm that curves slightly. Most of them have hands made from wire, 
<DIV></DIV>wrapped with adhesive tape. (ycch) Heads are made from solid clay, or 
<DIV></DIV>plaster bandage or wood. Bodies are wood and cloth. They have very long 
<DIV></DIV>strings, attached to two same-sized dowels with notches carved in them to 
<DIV></DIV>keep the strings separate. The dowels were not attached to each other. I 
<DIV></DIV>can't imagine operating them. 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Anybody know anything about any of these people? 
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Thanks for your help!
