For fxpression.
fJMlK answer to the objections
raised by a number of students
to the inclusion of many faculty
members in the casts of the vari
ous productions of the I niversity
'layers may be found, at least
i.-irtly, in the effort of the Pra
natie club to present original
lays entirely dramatized and di
ected by students.
The arguments directed agaiii.-t
he University Players have been
o the et feet that students in the
hamatics department get little or
hi opportunity to receive- practical
raining'. It has been as.-cited that
he Playeis should provide this
ahoratory of training for dramatic
Indents and that when faculty
n embers are given all the impor-
ant par ts. the students interests
ire neglected.
The Nebraskan pointed out in
mswer to these objections that the
"niversity Players serve a further
uipose than that of being a train-
ng laboratory for dramatic stu-
lents. The Players' productions
lave established a reputation for
nerit which has resulted in filling
i campus need for worthwhile dra-
natic entertainment. This merit
ras come rather largely because of
he fact that experienced actors
iave played the leading; parts In
he productions. Public support of
he Players might easily be sacri-
iced by turning- the proeiuctions
ver entirely to students who are
borough amateurs.
""HE Dramatic club productions
should help in filling the need
it by dramatic students for real
xpe-rience in acting. It is true
:hat the actors may miss the feel-
mg of playing to large audiences.
Tlx ma y also consider that these
ola v;
wiuien as mey are oy ania-
leur playwrights, do not afford
much opportunity to take difficult
Parts-
We will agree that the opportu
nity presented in this particular
instance is inadequate 10 gne me
dramatic students the experience
uej ciesue, uul h enumij is
ter than nothing. Rather than run i
the risk of lowering the calibre of
the performances of the Univer
Hty Players by using all student
casts, the Nebraskan believes that
more extensive use of the pla::
adopted by the Dramatic club
would be a satisfactory solution.
A studio theater instituted last
year by the dramatics department
wa.s also an attempt in the direc
tion of giving students more prac
icsl experience. By using this
facility more extensively the dra
matics students should find them
selves well taken care of.
The Dramatic club's production
Wednesday, however, is deserving
of student support on the grounds
that it promises to display real
merit. The Nebraskan feels jjsti
fied in calling the attention e-f stu
dents and faculty members to this
f fort because it is meritorious and
cause it is an effort to fill a real
!i-eJ felt by student interested in
Jiainatics.

by H. G. Wells which is a very
much needed word in the English
language because it Is descriptive
of a habit to which most people
are addicted.
When you assert that people
who get good grades are greasy
grinds who aren't really smart,
thus, excusing your own poor
grades, very likely you are "bulp

friend that the girl who turned you
down for a date isn't so hot any
how and that you only called he r
because you knew her brother, yon
are "bulping" again.

Since this column appeared last.
Professor Minteer of the vocational

to say that he reads the "hooey"
once in a while whenever it is

say that he disagrees with some
of the few things that we say in

With the company planning- to

winter to study voice, an ambition
which he had always cherished.
Pater he joined the Clansmen &
Co.. spent some time in yaudiville,
ami became a member of a stock
company in New Haven and
Wnterbury. Conn.
Shortly after this time Mr. Diers
met James Haekett, a great ro
mantic actor, and played with him
in modern English comedy. The
play, however, was a "flop." Haek
ett later became a manager and
signed Diers to play in "House of
a Thousand Candles." Not pleased
with the second venture, Diers
and Haekett organized a stock
company, which played all the im
portant' cities east of the Missis
sippi. Greatly overburdened with the
duties of the stage manager on the
trip, Mr. Diers health broke, and
he went west to Wyoming; where
he was to become food administra
tor, upon appointment by Presi
dent Wilson.
Serves in Legislature.
During; the years he spent in
Wyoming, Mr. Diers se rved a term
in the lower house- and a term in
the senate of the state before his
appointment expired. He was
chairman the democratic state
convention in 1020, and delegate
to the national convention in San
Francisco the same jeiir,
