Like all other school work and activities, the basketball meet has been delayed by the fi n epidemic, but a team can play in it.

Jauity East Side
Bootleger

Professor Calderwood told of the difficulties he was having in getting over to the students that they were shy. "I didn't have dramas and have a 'darn good time'."
"I hate to keep telling them that George Bernard Shaw's play, "The Doctor's Dilemma," is a well-put together, interesting play, and that to me is all they've done. For while it is all that, if the students knew their drama they would know it also to be a geographical dissection of life in the real afternoon's entertainment.
"We have given the students so many local productions at prices under a dollar that they do not realize how much they have paid." New York production by a troupe of players even better than the travel composing last year with Shaw "dollar."
The play is not one of these" problem plays one avoids unless he is in front of the doctor before us six or seven doctors, each insisting upon a different treatment, and presents them with the task of getting a doctor to give him a very ordinary but perfectly good physician or to save an artist who has given great promise. The question is what the doctor should do one doctor. Shaw takes the stand that the artist is more valuable to the world at large than the doctor is from a small group. The play starts at 3 b.
"Ned McCobb's Daughter" will be presented in Fraser theatre at 8:15 Wednesday evening.

The bootlegger, in this play is superb, with his jaintiness and rudely wut, his philosophy and his Fast Side accent."
