UNIVERSITY PLAYERS TO
PRESENT "THE BELLS"
Play Was Written in French and Has
Been a Success Where
Played.
The University Players will present
"The Bells," the fifth of their plays
this school year, Thursday, Friday
and Saturday of this week at the
Temple theater.
"The Bells" was written in French
by Erckmann and Chatrain and wa3
translated by Henry L. Williams,
Jr. The play was first presented in
1S69 in French, but it quickly came
over to the English, and the Ameri
can stage where it has always been
a success. Henry Irving, famous ac
tor, scored his greatest success in
terpreting the leading role of "The
Bells," and it was largely through this
play that he gained his reputation.
The story of "The Bells" is tragic,
but it' ends quite unexpectedly. II
deals with the murder of a Polisn-
Jew years before the action of the
play. At the time of the murder bells
were heard ringing. Throughout Ihe
play, bells ring which call to mind
the murder, and this ringing of bells
later plays an important part in
pointing out the murder and winding j
up the play. Love and romance are
mingled with the action.
The cast includes C. L. Coombs,
Mrs. C. L. Coombs, John Dawson, Ed
mund Nuss, Welsh Pogue, Mary John
son, Niel Brown, Alvin Sandctedt.
Gerald Leucke, Mildred Gollehon and
Stoddard Robinson.
