FLORADORA REDIVIVUS

"If it had not been for Yale students in 1900," says Nace Bonville, the "Leandre" of the Shubert revival, "Floradora" might have gone to the storehouse never to be resurrected."

And so it was, in New Haven twenty years ago the Elis gave the initial shove which sent this musical comedy on its career. Today Harvard sees, risen in its midst, this same "Floradora" resplendent with the charms of a new sextet. Can Johnny Harvard finish what the Elis began? Will front row, stage door and "standing room" be filled with Cambridge undergraduates anxious to give admiration to fair chorines? Will Harvard carry on? It will. And "Leandro" recalling, amid tumultuous applause, his triumph of two decades past, will be forced to the admission that in yet another field the Crimson has gone the Eli one better.
