Classical Club to Present Play

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Classical Club will present "The Epitrepontes," a newly discovered Greek comedy by Menander, next Wednesday evening at the home of Mr. Charles Peabody '90, 197 Brattle street. There will also be a dress rehearsal of the play in the Common Room of Conant on Monday evening at 8 o'clock, which will be open to all members of the University and of Radcliffe College.

The scene of the play is laid in Athens. The plot deals with the repudiation by Charisios of his wife Pamphile on account of a serious quarrel. Two slaves, Daos and Syriskos, bring about a reconciliation by appealing to the parents' love for their deserted child, who is identified by a ring that has once been the property of Charisios.
