Jf one ever wondered what went on behind the closed doors of n jury room, their questions might be solved, could they but see Fred Hal lard's "Ladies of The Jury," the latest University Players' production. The play was given Wednesday evening at the Veteran's Hospital and opened at the Temple Thursday evening. The performance this eve-o ning will be the last one. For a third revival, this comedy drew a capacity house. It is a truly funry play, and the delightfully absurd proceedings which go on in this mythical courthouse would draw an audience anywhere. It is one of the best plays the Players have given here this season. Mr. Ballard might have written the part for Miss H. Alice Howell, for the role is really hers. As a society woman "Mrs. Livingstone Baldwin Crane," she shows that perhaps a society figure can be of some good to humanity after all. The charac ter she created was noble, as she swayed the other jury members to vote her way, thus changing the verdict of the case. Bob Reade, a former Player, of ficiated as Jayn S.
