COMEDY: FAY STARS
'Enter Madame' to Show
Feb. 7 to 13; Vogt
Has Male Lead.
Gwcn Thirza Fay will play the
leading role of Madame Lisa Delia
Robbia in "Enter Madame", a
three act comedy written by Gilda
Varesl and Dolly Byrne which will
be given by the University Players
from Fen. 7 to 13.
Miss Fay, who takes the part of
a very temperamental Italian
prima donna who travels from ons
musical center to another and has
no time to get acquainted with her
husband or son, is a senior in the
dramatics department. Miss Fay
has previously appeared in "Two
Girls Wanted" given by the Play
ers. The leading male role is taken
by G. Walter Vogt who plays the
part of Gerald Fitzgerald, the hus
band of the prima donna. He
thoroughly dislikes the life be
leads and in an effort to assert his
independence he states that mar
riage may be a game but it isn't
solitaire. Mr. Vogt is well remem
bered for his excellent work as
Lord Darlington in "Lady Winder
mere's Fan" ana as the secretary
in the last play given by the Play
ers, "The Queen's Husband."
The romantic interests of the
play arc taken by Gertrude Sulli
van and Jeic Mickel. The latter
who has been very active with
the Plavers this season takes the
part of John Fitzgersld, the son of
the prima donna. Miss Sullivan is
his fiancee, AHnc Chalmers.
The rest of the cast is composed
of: Prudence Brown as Mrs. Flora
Preston, tht widow who tries to
lure Madamc's husband; Paul Mil
ler as Tomamoto, Mr. KiUgerald's
servant; Valerie Worrell as "Bice,
Madamc's maid; Edwin Quinn aa
Arthimede, her chef; Paul Thomp
son as her doctor; and Eleanor
Foley as her secretary, Miss Smith.
The action of the play takes
place in a bachelor apartment in
Boston, and concerns itself mainly
with individual characterization.

In older to completely reorgan
ize the group for the coming se
niister, the Sophomore Commission
will meet Wednesday at 0 o'clock
in Kllen Smith Hall. Lyndell
Bnimback who regularly leads the
staff will be In charge of this meet
ing. with the instructor in the right
way and as a result the class was
dismissed minus any examination
and with the inevitable fear of loss
of credit for the semester's work.
Immediately an investigation
was undertaken by tbe students.
They began to storm their profes
sor's office, curious to find out
their fate. But there was no cause
for dismay, because tbe professor's
ire had subsided by that time. He
was then in a better mood.
"Bring in your notebooks some
time within the next few dsys and
111 see that you get full credit
for your semester's work." the
professor assured his trailers.
