Dramatic Club Play Makes Hit With Audience

Ralph Bryant, c u n t i s
Even stand George and Martha Washington would have laughed up a middle life or up of modern life and modern love presented by the Dramatic club in "This Thing Called Love" last night.
Old Fraser theater resounded to the rentals of Sam Kimble c37, and Eater Hollecker, c37, characterizing Mr. and Mrs. Bertrand, and to the applause and laughter of the large audience.
Her cobert, Larry Wightman, e 37,
transformed himself quickly from a long-lost stranger to a man totally familiar with the modern world.
Betty Ruth Smith, fa 37, as Ann,
the converted spinner, was perfecty at home on the stage, laughing spontaneously and loving fervently. Her movements were graceful and timely.
The cast did an excellent job o mood creation in the first act. With soft music on the radio, drinks were served, the characters paired off and chatted amabilly, creating an atmosphere verging closely on the theme of "Abode of the Blessed", which phrase Bettrand had used to de-figure the scene. The title "Abode of the Blessed" is changed to "Madhouse of the Maniacs" when Miss Hollecker goes with that gentle voice of hers.
Fred Littot, c39, couldn't keep from smiling at his own jokes, but that's excusable when you consider that they're pretty good jokes and he didn't write them anyway. As Normie he finds one place where he's licked when he tries to make Amn's marriage number five in his list of shamelessly uprooted love-matches. Every entrance of Mary Frances Martin, c37, framed a picture in the widow's aye of a typical college window.
Luciel Wagner, fa38, always knew just what to say at just the right time. Her ability was exceptional at turning the conversation tender-love moment, instead of leading them along the straight and narrow. But her husband, Joe Myers, c'uncl, was used to it and thought his cause hopeless until harassed husband Richard Lansford proposed that they leave the ripeppy opportunity.

Seriously, the cast co-ordinated well, showing the artistry of its director, Rolla Nuckles, especially in its "ad-lib" scenes. Fast action, except for an occasional love scene, pre-vailed. The play began in a roar of excitement and ended in a flurry of confusion.
Lauvey Gaynor, *e'curl*, and James Bradfield, *e'curl*, played the batte and maid, small but necessary parts taking their cues promptly.

Moe Ettesen has been trying to get the word around that members of the Owl Society have free passes to the Cood Hop March 12. It was agreeable to Ettensen that the society sponsor the Hop, but he couldn't feel sure that each member would be asked by a lady to attend, consequently the free pass news. (There's your chance, girls, don't fall.)
For those who have been wondering what caused the disturbance late Thursday night in the vicinity of what will hereafter be known as "Happy Hollow," here are the facts. It all started when the Pi KA.K.'s were serenading the Kappa's and the Phi Gam's objected and made it known by lusty booing and yelling. The Sigma Gamma not only agreed with the Phi Gam's and began yelluring at its members, but also liked the idea Kappa Eina Kappa's also liked the use of firecrackers. The Kappa girls then entered into the festivities and didn't do badly at all. Next, an organization of suspected students had one of its members play "taps" on a saxophone—there was a slight hush and from across the hollow came the remark, "Very appropriate," followed by all of the aforementioned organizations chanting, "We're going full blast until the Sigma Gamma were quieted by the Lawrence police who have an unequalled way of handling such aaffairs, and after that warning note the noise began to cease, much to the pleasure of persons residing within a radius of about six blocks.
We have been wondering if Dave Roberts and Roberta Mitchell are married. Roberts bet Mitchell $5 that he would marry her after last Wednesday afternoon and Mitchell retaliates with a $5 bet that she will sue Roberta Mitchell once. Came Tuesday afternoon and Leo Freed, who was to be best man, handled the couple toward in his car supposedly for the ceremony, but Roberts felt that he needed a "coke" for a bracer. The three went to the Blue Mill and had a "coke" but Roberts wasn't willing to explain that the matter needed some serious consideration. Mitchell was anxious to get the ceremony over but Roberts wouldn't leave and he wouldn't let the other two out of the booth. Time came for Fire to keep another appointment so he could people around them see some events together they were married, but it would be a pretty safe bet that the "Hill's Gift to Women" settled with Mitchell for five dollars.
it is reported that George Snyder, Campus Cop, is going to turn detective if he continues being arused from bed and otherwise annoyed by individuals calling his home and asking if it is Snyder's Beauty Parlor. This has happened almost every night during the past week.

where she is residing for the next six weeks. On coming home with her date one moonlit night lately she was so enthralled that she did no notice the door. The door was locker and try as to "Batty" would, she could not arouse anyone. Finally she am her little daydid to march about four blocks to call up someone in the house to let them in. Folk say the ought to be a lesson, but with Jan you can never tell. Try throwing rock through the window next time Jane.
The children's concert was effected by a slight additional cost which allowed the public schools of the city to offer symphonic music to the children at a cost of a fifth of what the concert would have cost if bought outright. Those in charge of the music education department were summoning for a large attendance of school children at the matinee concert.
