Preparations for the Greek Play.

The provisional assignment of parts for the production of the "Birds" of Aristophanes by members of the Classical Club has already been made, but owing to the recent illness of Professor White, who is actively interested in the play, and the pressure of work during the examination period, rehearsals have not yet begun. Professor Paine has completed the scores of the first three musical numbers, and the chorus has been rehearsing regularly under the direction of Mr. Locke and Mr. Spalding,

The principal speaking parts are six in number, and there is one mute part--the impersonation of the queen. The actors will wear the conventional costumes of Greek comedy, with masks. The chorus, which will probably consist of sixteen voice, will be fully costumed to represent birds.
