Edwin 11' . 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.
