The graduate committee of the Dramatic Club has selected four one-act plays for production this spring. They are: "Death and the Dicers," a mystery play adapted from Chaucer's "Pardoner's Tale," by F. Schenck '09; "Five in the Morning," a tragedy in verse, depicting present-day life, by H. Hagedorn '07, and an unnamed western comedy by the same author; and finally an Irish farce suggested by an incident in one of Charles Lever's Novels, by L. Hatch '07.
The graduate committee, consisting of Professor G. P. Baker '87, Winthrop Ames '95, director of the New Theatre in New York City, and H. T. Parker, dramatic editor of the Boston Transcript, selected four plays instead of three as expected, because in the four there is a range which will give opportunity for practically every kind of acting.
The plays will not be produced until after the April recess. An effort will be made to have each of the 27 speaking parts assigned to a different man. There are no mobs or other opportunities for non-speaking parts. Registration for trials will take place this afternoon between 4 and 6 in Grays 17. All men of any acting ability or inclination to act are urged to come out. The trials are open to all members of the University.
