POPULAR COMEDY
Talented University Cast Deserves
Commendation for Their Produc
tion of "Clarence."
HERBERT PLAYS TITLE ROLE
Will be Given on Both Friday ana
Saturday Evenings Wotr
While Attending.
The University players have gone
over the top again in their last night's
production of Booth Tarkington s best
comedy, "Clarence." The play moved
along with a zest and a snap that
would do credit to a troupo of pro
fessionals. The plot of the piny while
not particulaily involved it 13 one of
such real human interest that it gets
right over the footlights and Into th)
audiences' hearts.
The Players are to be congratu
lated on their selection of this type
of play. "Clarence" tells the story
of a young man who nas just Deeu
discharged from the army. He h very
much in search of something to do.
He has been an expert In the gov
ernmental service, specializing on
beetles. By chance he happens to
hear all the family troubles of a very
big business man and by the accident
receives a position in the rich man's
family. The girl in the family is
wildly in love with a widorcr. The
boy of the family has had ait affair
with the house-maid. The mother Is
very suspicious of the attentions
which her husband bestows on the
governess. Needless to say "Clar
once" clears everything up :n nic5
fashion and harmony reigns ence
mere in the troubled family circle.
Walter M. Herbert portrays tie
title role in splendid stylo an-! keeps
his character quiet and natural. Hi:i
comedy lines in the first act w?re :ioi
well received but tho audience
warmed up later on and enjoyed thrm
immensely.
Miss Gladys Appleman returns to
the Players and was most charming as
the governess. Herbert Yenno did the
juvenile, Bobby, With a lot or zost and
was well received. Miss Katherino
Matchett as the love-sick Cora wr.s ey
ccllent and gave one of the bent
characterizations of the evening.
Hart Jenks as the busy rich man,
ns enjoyable and worked consistent
ly throughout the bill. Margaret Per
ry made a beautiful Mrs. Wheeler.
Her splendid voice was particularly
Pleasing. Winifred Merryhew, Mary
Best, George Stone and Edmund make
up the rest of a well balanced and
veil directed cast of characters.
The University orchestra under the
direction of Mr. Williajii Quick, fur
nished the musicr.l setting and rlayed
their overture well. The selling for
act two drew considerable praise.
All in all the play went off in a pro
fessional manner. There were no long
''aits between acts and the play com
menced promptb' i't 8:15.
The play willbe given Friday Mid
Saturday nights and should fill tlu

The pleasant autumn days have
gone; the first snow fall of the year
seems imminent; Old Jack Frost
threatens to come down from the Icy
Northland at any moment and drape
the prairies with his velvety flakes
of white confetti. Everyone is getting
ready for him.
Five o'clock classes are now nign..
classes. The sun sinks to his ill-deserved
rest about the time he used
to be at the height of his glory. It
is night inky black when you sit
down to your evening rerast, supper
or dinner whatever you want to call
It.
And when you hit the icy floor of
the dormitory about seven bells in
the morning it is still night Inky
black old Sol starts late as well as
quite early these days.
But you can't blame this on to

the Ames contest scratched from the
Cornhusker calendar, one game re
mains for th el921 Varsity to take
part in.
Three men are playing their last
contest for the Scarlet and he Cream
on Thanksgiving day when the Husk
ers meet the Colorado Aggies on Ne

Floyd Wright, right half, are the three
Cornhuskers who will wind up their
Varsity career next week. This is
Captain Swanson's fourth year on the
Varsity, "Swannie" playing part time
on the 1918 S. A. T. C. eleven. Wright
and Pucelik have played the last three
seasons and have won a great deal
of recognition for themselves through
out the country as exponents of thj
pigskin sport. Wright is probably the
fastest man on the eleven at carrying
the ball and one of the most consist

Pucelik has starred the last thr-ri
years and is known for his ability t;

It happens thus about this time eve--y
year. Some of us like it, more of us
dislike it, but all of us tolerate it.
As a matter of fact, we do just
ahmit what we want to do and what
u nlan to do. irrespective of the
weather.
For instance, many carloads of hap
py Huskers are going forth today and
tomorrow on the journey to Cycne
town to see the Corntmr.kers wa"op
the Iowans. Much merry will be mncte
and spirits will be very high.
Whether it snows or whether it
blows, whether It rains or whether it
shines, the Cornhuskers in Air.e3 will
be Joyful everybody happy, nobody
blue. Dawson's clan Is going to win
the whole world knows that. It's just
a question of how big the score is.
So" why shouldn't everyone feel gay.
That's the whole thing in a nut

He stated that the department store
was a very good field for young men
