INTEREST IN PLAY GROWS At Least Ten Manuscripts Will Be Submitted in Dramatic Club Contest Pleasure over the promised success of the Dramatic Club Drama Competition, and hopes that the prize-winning play would be suitable for previews. But Ms. Burnett expressed this morning by Don Burnett, manager of the senior play. "It looks as though at least ten plays would be submitted in the competition," he said, "and that is certainly better than we had hoped. In this, as in every other play, it is only through stiff competition that the good play we are hoping for is going to be unearthed. A stirring comedy of college life," was the reply made by Burnett when asked what sort of play he thought would win the award, and plenty of action with which students are familiar are the things which should be incorporated into the play." "Don't go beyond your depth," is the advice Prof. Arthur MacMurray has to offer to the aspiring playwrights. "One student came to me the other day with a plot and a theme that were entirely too big for him to handle—and I tried to show him the folly of writing about something with which he knowledges. Stay—keep them life you don't know about—keep out of deep water. That's the most important bit of advice I have to offer." The Drama Prize Competition will be made an annual affair if the one this year is a success, according to Professor MacMuray. "We hope to make the Competition a permanent feature of University activity," he said, "and to offer larger prizes every year." Get your box candies at Wilson's Drug Store.
