Here is the pony chorus of "H igh and Dry," University of Ne braska Kosmet Klub show which was produced in Hastings April 20 and will show in Lincoln, May 1 and 2. It is the chorus minus three. They weren't left out inte ntionally but it just happened that six clocks were all that were necessary in this particular number so three men were out. The men pictured are, bottom row, left to right. Jack Houck Omaha; Harry Foster, 'Lincoln; Ralph Spencer, Talmadge. Top row, left to right. Otis Detrick, York; Howard Nelson, Lincoln, and Har old Nelson, Lincoln. Those not 1 n the picture are Bob Wurl, Platts mouth; Art Wolf, Edgar, and Roy Behrens, oHldrege. The clocks are all set at three bells. When you see "High and Dry" you will realiie why this is part of an early number, sort of. The time pieces, however, are used in a very clever dance which is one of the big featurs of the show. 900 Hastings Citizens Desert Radios To See 'Home Town' McCleery's Play Rv JACK ERICKSON. The game is done, we've won, i we've won. Quoth they and whistled thrice! Although the foregoing bit of rhyme is practically an open and shut case of plaigarism from Col eridge's "Rime of an Ancient Marines." it has been adapted to fit th Ptnn of Kosmet Klub members following the presenta tion of "High and Dry" in the Hastings city auditorium, Monday evening. It seems that 900 good citizens of Hastings and tne surrounaing trritnnr hirnMl off their radios ! and turned out to see associated j Kosmet Klub staff and cast go into islia of adventure, and tempests of love on the local stage as they rendered "High and Dry" in a splendid fashion. The cap tain and crew of the play consider this a true tribute to their efforts, and an appreciation of their long trek from Lincoln by special train. Have Special Car. ' The special car and baggage de partment which transported "High and Dry" comedians and their scenic equipment left Lincoln at about noon Monday accompanied by Dean T. J. Thompson and Pro fessor E. S. Schramm. At the be ginning of tbe tour Kosmet Klub gave each tourist one dollar upon which the day's gastronomic satis factions were to be based. On a spurt of inspiration some of the cast members spent the entire sum early in tbe day and starved for tbe rest of the trip. Others spent sparingly, even cautionusly, awed by the possession of such a lump sum all to wunct. Nate Levy, one of the cast comedians, is supposed to have spent his dollar entirely for salted almonds. This is more than an idle rumor, in fact some say they saw him buy the nuts. Others at test that he bad other food in ad dition to the almonds and tbe only conclusion to be drawn is that he must have had another food re source.
