Myers of 'Brolen Bow , has been honored by receiving - ing a place in the cast of the Senior play at the University of Nebraska. The cast was select. cd by a committee before , vhom a large number tried Qut. The part to which Mr. Myers was as. signed is one of the most difficult an important in the play. The play chosen this year is Oliver Goldsmith's , "She Stoops to Conquer. " Mr. Myers being assigned - signed to the part of Squire Hardras'Ue. The play will be given in the Oliver Theatre , Wednesday , June 8. The Senior class has hired Miss Howell , a graduate of the Emerson School of Oratory in Boston , to coach the play for $150. The aste will practice three nights a week from now until the play is given. ' Mr. Myers will also act in title role in a play wIiich the University - sity Dramatic Club will present to the Lincoln public shortly. Further than this he has achieved - ed distinction in the fiehl of de- bate. He tried out in the pre- , lliminaries a week ago and was . one f the fifteen that were chos to constitute tlie Interstate Debating - bating Squad. Those whose were in htgh school with Mr Myers well remember him as a member of the old Broken Bow Dramatic Club and a successful debater. We believe he debated on t11ree different occasions in high school and was always victorious. "lED.
