THURSDAY, April 4. 1912 GROWTH OF DRAMATICS. A wave of dramatic onthUBlaBm Booms to havo swept our University Whereas only n few years ago one or two playB constituted tho entire dra matic Bchodulo for tho school year, now the BtudentB have the opportu nity of attending from six to a dozen Tho Dramatic club, tho father of such organizations, was In former tlmoB accustomed to glvo but one big performance a year This, with the annual senior class play, held Just bo foro graduation, composed the extent of tho program Now tho Dramatic club gives one play each semester, tho senior class holds ItB annual performance nB usual, and tho junior class has entered tho ranks by Btaglng a drama equal In Importanco to either of the aforemen tioned. Tho Institution of University night last year gavo another opening for nmateur actors, mostly of tho Eddlo Foy type, and suggested the ldoa of burlesque and music MlnBtrel shows and takeoffs on various phases of uni versity life found a warm reception In the hearts of tho studont body, and encouraged certain male students to form tho Kosmet Klub, an" organlza tlon whose main aim is to present a musical comedy This club, like many similar ones In tho larger unlversl ties, proposed to Btage a production whose llneB and music should be writ ton by n student or alumnus of the University. This they have done, and are now working on an opera, which la to be staged In tho Oliver May II Tho Dramatic club, which held its second annual tryouts last Tuesday evening, 1b ono of the most exclusive nnd prosperous organizations in tho Bchool. The competition for placeB on the club Is keen, and Is each year more hotly contested. It has turned out sovoral amateur actors of no mean ability, somo of whom have coached high school playB ovor tho state Perhaps the snmo spirit has revived the interest in the ("Hoe and Mandolin clubs which Is making those bodies onco more powerful. Some Idea of tho Importanco at tached to University dramatics may be gained from tho fact that at least five all university dates aro to be ro served" for such evontB In next year's schedule If this tendency does not go too far It can accomplish much good, for an appreciation of the power of tho drama Is essontlal to an education.
