LEE8 DE8CRIBE8 8CENE8 OF WONDERFUL DRAMA. TELLS OF THE VAST AUDITORIUM Scenes of Ober-Ammergau Production Presented and Illustrated with 8tereoptlcon at Convoca tion Yesterday. Before an audience that completely filled Memorial hall, Prof. T. J. LeeB todav concluded hln lecture on "Tho Obor-Ammorgau PasBlon Play.'1 LaBt Tuesday at convocation Professor Lees told a story which contains what he bolloves to bo an authentic reason why tho folk of Ober-Amraorgau peri odically reproduce tho "PasBlon Play." Today ho followed up In detail, as far as his limited timo would permit, in tho presentation of the "PnsBion Piny" in 1906 and also as it will appear this Biimmor in Ober-Ammorgnu. Ho ac companied this lecture. with sterooptl con .views of tho different scones of that groat dramn, which gavo to nls words such reality and truth that ono could nlmost feel tho deep solomnlty which Is said to attend tho resurrec tion and -ascension sqones of tho real "Passion Piay." After a brief summary of tho con tents of tho first division of his lec ture, Professor Lees said in part: "During the first two conturlos, after tho making of that wonderful vow, tho 'Passion Play' was given in a large meadow bordering on Ober-Ammergau. Later, however, because of l'nclemont weather, an Immense theater "wns built, costing $50,000 and holding ap proximately 4,000 people. During tho summer of every tenth yonr, twenty or thirty performances of this drama aro given ovory performance coming on Sunday or Wednesday. The play begins at 8 o'clock in tho morning and continues until G o'clock In tho even ing, tho hours from 12 a m. to 2 p. m. IncluBlvo being devoted to lunch. 8 tarts With Cannon. "At tho signal of n cannon, tho great play begins. At tho rlso oPtho curtain, a chorus of forty men and women enter from each Bldo of tho stage. Tho members of tho chorus aro all dressed In robes, mantles, sandals and othor apparel of oriental pattern. Theso robes nro worn throughout tho piny, with tho single exception of the crucifixion scono, in which black robes aro worn In their place, Tho duty of tho chorus is tho samo aa that of the Greek classical drama, namely to lm press tho moral teachings of the play. Ono member of tho chorus Is appoint ed to give a prologue boforo every anthem. ThiB ho does In a very im pressive manner. "Tho next scono shows children kneeling at a cross. Tho children which play this part aro very young, but thoir ago seems to lond pathod to the scene as they cllrig ahout tho cross of thoir departed Savior. . "After this tho real 'Passion Play begins, and as tho curtain rises, ono flees a reproduction of that wonderful, entrance of Christ into Jerusalem. How ho approached tho' tomplo; how the people shouted and decqrated his path with palm branches; and how ho FEBRUARY 11, 1910. ontorod tho tomplo, ovorthrow tho money tnbles and rebuked tho gam blors, aro all incidents of this scono which glvo it effectiveness nnd grnn dour, "Tho part of Christ is played by Anton Lango, n more youth, but to nil that havo scon him, ho is a marvel'. Thoro Is something benutiful nnd al most nngelje in htfl ace, and by more ly gazing upon him ono can form a clear and beautiful conception of tho real Christ. Following Scenes. "The following scono shows Josub In Bethany, bidding farewell to his mother and disciples. Hero wo nro brought Into closer rotation to tho dis ciples nnd thoir distinct dispositions, ovon.down to tho ignoble Judns played by a man named Sling, who presents his part with groat talent "After thiB como tho scenes whoro Judas barters with tho Pharlseos; whoro Jesus prays In tho gnrden of Gethsemnno; tho last supper; and tho climnx whoro Judas betrays Christ with a klsB." This cloBod tho first four hours of "Tho PasBlon Piny," nnd at this Junc ture Ldcs was forced to discontinue his lecture. UNIONS GIVE PARTY.

WILL TAKE EFFECT CHARTER DAY No Dances In Buildings on the Cam put to Be Permitted Without Written Consent of the Chancellor. , Owing to circumstances which havo.. arlson during tho past fow wooks, Chancellor Avory Is desirous that the ruling passod last fall rogardlng tho holding of functions on tho university cnmpuB shall bo published. Tho rul ing passod by tho board of rogonts May 20, 1909,, is as follows: "Thoro shall bo no dances in riny of tho univorslty buildings, olthor at the farm pr city campus, without spoclal permission, from tho chancellor's of fice This shnll not apply to tho Tom plo, at which dances may bo scheduled through tho office of tho suporlnton-' dent of groundB and buildings, aftor duo approval." Reason for Publication. Tho reason for tho publication of , this ruling nt tho presont timo is that tho holding of baskotball lnformals -and othor social functions on tho 'uni versity cnmpuB has been In practico for some timo slnco tho passing of this rule. Tho univorslty authorities doBlred to make tho enforcoment ot this ruling as gradual as possiblo. But now tho chancellor feels that tho time has como when it must bo enforced, and that such functions as are spocT fled in tho ruling will not bo pormlt tod unless thoro Is unusual roason why they should. Tho matter was brought .moro dl . rectly to tho notico of tho chancellor, by tho fact that a numbor of basket ball lnformals -have boon, hold, in the - armory. Theso lnformals aro moro or less public in thoir nature, in that the , games aro public. Tho ruling as passed by tho board of regents will become offoctlvo after Charter Day. Aftor that timo no func tions at which thero is dancing will be permitted in buildings on tho univer sity campus without a written permit of tho chnncollor.. This authority will bo obtained only whon tho circum stances in its favor aro of the utmost weight ' GERMAN. PLAY TONIGHT, V Professor 8teckelberg and His Orches tra Will Furnish Musio for the Play.
