At The Theatre
By Ben Hibbs
Playing under very difficult conditions, the Clarke and Ross company made a distinct, outstanding success of each of the three modern plays presented Friday and Saturday at Robinson Gymnasium. Although the audience in attendance at the festival of plays was not nearly as large as it should have been, it was attentive and appreciative.
The noise made by the rain on the tin roof of the gymnasium both Friday and Saturday nights rendered the task of the actors exceedingly difficult. Their articulation, however, was markedly better in some well some of the best modern drama, despite the poor acoustics of the improvised play-house.
"The Marriage of Kitty," the first of the three plays, presented Friday afternoon, was the only light production of the series. The play is Lennox's three-act comedy adapted from the French of Mme. de Vracen. Considering the festival of drama as a whole, "The Marriage of Kitty" demonstrated in a remarkable manner the versatility of the company of artists. This work could be told to find that a cast can interpret comedy equally as well as the heavy drama of such artists as Ibsen and Strindberg.
"The Marriage of Kitty" deals in a refreshing manner with the old home of marriage for the retention of a legacy. Sir Reginald Bellize, a French baronet, marries Katherine Silverton against his will in order to inherit the estate; she force her later and marry a bewitching Peruvian widow of his acquaintance. But "time grows heavy" between the widow and the baronet, and Sir Reginald at length finds himself n love with his own wife. Then it he has to do some rather difficult explaining to the hysterical wood.
Robert Donaldson, in the part of Sir Reginald Belz, transplanted a real baronet from France to the view of the audience. That Mercedes Desmore, in the role of Katherine Silverton, and Hilda Englund, presenting the character of the Peruvian widow, were the favorites of those attending the play was easily shown by the bursts of applause which followed the intense moments in which the two noted actresses played the big part. Especially was the clear, bell-like voice of the little English actress fitting to the role of the heroine, Katherine Silverton.
Friday evening the play company interpreted Henrik Ibsen's "Rosersholm" for the people of Lawrence and for the University. This play for many was the high spot of the festival of drama. The presentation of the tragedy of the great Norwegian artist was certainly excellently done.
The action of the drama takes place at Rosersholm, an old family seat on the west coast of Norway. The old centers about Johannes Rosser, a former clergyman, whose part is in the churchyard. In the West, Becia West, who is in charge of Rosser's household, and whose role is interpreted by Hilda Englund.
The play is one dealing with the passions of human beings—the very molding of the souls of men. The theme is based upon the attempt of a man to shake off the religions and political beliefs of his ancestors, based upon the intriguing influence of a woman of powerful will, and upon the —running love and fidelity of man and woman.
The acting of the entire cast was good, but head and shoulders above them all stood Donaldson in the role of Rosmer, the man who never laughed. The character was one of quick, violent emotions—a man of strength, energy, and courage son's presentation of that character was magnificent. His whole frame seemed to shake and away with his impassioned speeches.
Hilda Englund, the celebrated actress, who has created several of Ibsen's dramas, played the most difficult role in "Rosmersholm" and played it well. Her wonderful voice and her presentation of tense facial expression indicated the perfection of a finished artist. The calm effrontery of her character was presented by Theodore Roseak, the actress of Maurice Drew as Professor Kroll, and Franklin Ramamayi's interpretation of the character of the vagabond philosopher all were pleasing—the work of experienced actors.
Stirnidge's play, "Easter," given here Saturday night, is a pleasant bit of drama. This work of the Swedish dramatist reminds one in many ways of the stories of Charles Dickens; the homely plot of simple family life, the play of emotions, the pathos and occasional bits of laughter, and finally the serenity of a happy ending—all these are examples
of the type of thing that touches the hearts of people the world over.
The action of the play is laid in the living room of the Heyst house during the days immediately preceding Easter Sunday. The Heyst family is oppressed by debt and the dark shadow of a father's crime. The creditor of the family, Llandiquest, whose part was so ably taken by Maurice Drew, to the children seems to take the form of an omnipotent girl. Little troubles assume huge progeny. They are forced of ejection from their home—by the fear of grey prison walls. The end of the play is beautiful, for the creditor turns out to be a great-hearted man who befriends the family.
Mercedes Denamore, in the role of Eleanora, the daughter, was the favorite of the theater-goers who saw the presentation of "Easter." The happy attitude of the character—"I am a king," she interpreted by the English actress was more than pleasant. Robert Denaldson, as Ellis, the son of the household, depicted well the desolation and broken pride of the rather serious young man who thinks that he has been made the infirm old mother, Fru Heyst, reallive live for the audience.
Three remarkable plays, staged by a cast of artists—that is the feeling among the Lawrence people who attended the drama of drama.
Seven Sooners Wish They'd Come Sooner
Seven Oklahoma men had the sad experience of driving through to Lawrence to see only the last quarter of the game.
They left Oklahoma City Thursday night, at 11 o'clock, and went to Wynona, Oklahoma on the train. There they persisted a "Dad" to yet them have a Chevrolet roadster to drive up here.
At 3 o'clock Friday morning they left Wynonna and drove to Caney, Kansas, where they had car trouble. There the men laid up seventeen hours. This did not discourage them, for they drove on in to Lawrence.
They arrived here at 4:30 Saturday, just in time to see Kansas make her last touchdown. Sunday noon three of the men started back in the car, trusting for better luck on their return trip. The other four took the train, preferring train service to auto mobile on a long trip.
The men were: Elmer Cothran
George Johnson, Clifford Wright,
Scott Rockwell, Carl Shorthall, John
Scott, and Roscoe Johnson.

Which Caters to Good Food
It will pay you to listen to this music
ALL over the country the whistle is blowing for the kick-off, the start of that great game another college year.
Be on your toes when the whistle blows. A good start will carry you well on toward your goal.
Let the football candidate start by working away till his muscles ache from bucking the line.
Let the aspirant for manager put in careful study of his team's needs, always eager to help — arranging a trip or carrying a pail of water.
Let the publications man be alert for news and tireless in learning the details of editorial work.
Whatever activity you come out for, crowd a lot of energy into these early Fall days.
And if a good start helps win campus honors, it helps win class room honors, too. The sure way to be up in your work is to aim now for regularity at lectures, up-to-date note-books and particular attention to the early chapters of text-books, thus getting a grip on the basics.
This is best in the long run, and—selfishly—it is easiest in the long run. That is, if life after college is made easier by the things a bigger income can buy.
