THE JUNIOR CLASS PLAY
In deciding to give its class play at the Temple theatre, rather
than down town, the junior class has shown that it is dominated by
true University spirit, rather than by a love of show. For it has
started a custom that will be followed in the future by junior classes,
of giving their play in the theatre built for that purpose.
The greatest inconvenience will come to the cast, who will have
to use dresing rooms that are anything but commodious. They will
also lose the fun that comes of putting on a play in a large theatre
like the Oliver, with its accompanying glamour. To go ahead in
spite of this, for the sake of their class, is high tribute to the mem
bers of the cast who are working so faithfully. The class should not
fail to show its appreciation.
It will be a splendid thing when University traditions like the
class plays, can be thought of, when one recalls his college life, as
taking place in a part of the University, and not taking place down
town. Cannot the loss of spirit among the alumni be traced in part
at least to the fact that when they think of the good times during
their college days, they think of them as taking place down town at
some hotel or threatre, rather than at the University? What associa
tions are we building up for the campus when we do all our playing
some place else, and only work within the gates of the University?
The play can be produced on the Temple stage very attractively.
The class is setting a precedent that must be set some time, a prece
dent that shows it is controlled by the highest motives. The junior
class has done a worthwhile thing.
