The famous Devereux Players, un
dcr Hie auspices of the University
Players, will appear at the Temple
Theater, Friday and Saturday, April
9 and 10. They will present "Re
tribution," by Obuck, on Friday eve
ning, "Romancers," by Rostand at a
Saturday matinee, and "The Thief,
Saturday evenirg.
Clifford Devereux was one of the
chief members of the Sothern and
01 Marlowe Company for several years.
For the past seven years he has, un
der his own direction, produced
large number of noteworthy plays.
He brines with him a company of
artists of national reputation.
The Company varies in size acco
ing to the requirements of the plays
being presented. Many of the Com
pany nave been with Mr. nevereux
for several years. Zinita Graf, one
of the leading players, though still a
young woman, ha3 played many parts.
and her irresistible personality per
meates each of the great roles she in
terprets, stamping her one of the most
interesting and conspicuous figures
upon the American stage.
In producing drama, Mr. Pevereux
believes in an unobtrusive background
that is 8uecestive. and while he
studies the psycological effect of light
and color in his productions, he
achieves the simple and avoids t"he
distracting detail of realism.
The tickets for the productions arr
on sale at the Ross P. Curtice Com
pany. at $L50; $1.00. 75c and 5c.
which the "N" Club so successfully
put over.
Huskera in Olympics
Kprska athletes have
bi en mentioned n the past few weeks
.s possibilities for i laces ..i tht
American team that takes part in the
Seventh Olympic Meet at Antwerp
next summer. Among the members of
tha Huskers team who are likely to
try for places on the team are Mc-
Mahnn nrnr Owens. Finney and
Wright.
Coach Henry Schulte recently re
ceived a letter from Frederick Rubier,
secretary of the American uimpic
Committee, urging him especially to
train Finney and Wright as possible
hurdlers to take the places of Simp
son and Thompson on the America r
team. Both men are showing good
form and have set up some time that
mav place them in the hurdling
events. The letter also slated that
there would probably be several
places open in the pentathlon.
Graf is a likely candidate for a
place on the team of American dis
tance runners that will take part in
the Olympics, while McMahon and
Owens rank with the best runners in
the country in the quarter mile and
other middle-distance runs.
Tryouts for places on the American
team will be held at various times
and in various places during the
spring season.
