Cast for Drama at

AUTHOR IS NEBRASKAN
Play Is Comedy of Court
And Jury Rooms at
Murder Trial.
Him H. Alice Howell, director of
th University Players, heads the
cast announced yesterday for the
players' February production.
"Ladies of the Jury," written by
Fred Ballard, Nebraska graduate.
The play has been called by
Charles Collins of the Chicago Tri
bune "the lightest and roost laugh
ing play ever written about a mur
der trial."
The part of Mrs. Livingston
Baldwin Crane, which Miss How
ell will take, was originally flayed
by Mrs. Fiske, the Chicago ac
mes tor whom the play was writ
ten. Theodore Diers will play the
part of Judge Fish who presides at
the trial. Other members of the
jury are Mildred Bickley, Pauline
GeUatly. De Lellis Sbra'mek, Dor
set Jacke, Nora Osborne, Robert
Reade, Harlan G. Eastern, Bill Mc
CJeery. W. Zolley Leroer, Leland
Bennett, and Dick Page.
Yenna, Mtekel, Attorney a
- Herb Yenna and Jere Mick el
will take the parts of tie oppos
ing attorneys. Other members of
the east Include Paul Thompson,
Holland Martin, Thirta Gwen Fay,
Charlotte Well, Maxine McNess.
Edwin Martlnsen.and Irmanelle
Waldo.
The star role of the play la that
of a aoctety leader in a New Jer
sey town who, with five other wo
men, becomes half of a mixed Jury
assembled to determine the guilt
of a girt on trial for the murder
of her husband.
First Act Shews Trial.
The first act, with its two
scenes, occurs during that triaL
Acts two and three are in the
jury-room, where for three day
the irmd stable Mrs. Crane has
been waging' a winning fight to
winf the verdict to "not guilty."
With each of the dozen jury
members a distinct and varying
type, and Mrs. Crane a plying ca
jolery, flattery, diplomacy, trick
ery and even a mild form of bribe
to win her point, the result is a
play which keeps the audience in
a constant state of hilarity.
"The University Players produc
tion of the three-act Ballard com
edy will begin showing at the
Temple theater Feb. 2 and continue
throughout the week.
PLACED ON PROBATION
Violation of Honor Code
By Language Class
Brings Action.
PALO ALTO. Calif Twenty
three members of a language class
were placed on honorary probation
by the men's and women's coun
cils last night after questioning of
the class revealed violations of the
honor code. The six other mem
bers of the class were flunked in
the course and also placed on pro
bation by the councils last Mon
day. The probationary period for
the entire group will remain in
force during the college career of
each member, the councils ruled.
Under the provisions of the proba
tion, the names of all the students
will be sent to the president of the
university and to the respective
dean for future reference, Virgil
DowelL chairman of men's council
declared. 1
If any student of the class is j
suspected of violating the code in i
the future, the proper council will
expel the offender from Stanford, j
he said. j
Up. to Class to Report. j
In Imposing sentence the coun- :
cils decided that each member of ,
the class regardless of the actual j
guilt of the students was tech
nicallv at fault for failing to re- ,
port the violations. "It is up to (
the class itself to report cheating,"
Dowell said in reprimanding the .
assembled students. "As it stands j
each rtudent will be under auspi- ,
tion In all examinations. j
"Vou did not conduct yourselves J
as real Stanford students." the
chairman continued. "And you
should be doubly ashamed of de- .
stroying the faith of a -isiting pro
fessor in the honor code at Stan
ford. "It ia within the power of every
college man and woman to uphold
the code or allow it to fall and
seriously impair the effectiveness
of a worthwhile student Institution,
which baa been In effect for years."
The meeting was presided over
zy Chairman Dowell, assisted by
Betty Aid en, chairman of the
women's council.
The executive committee and the
two councils are to meet tonight at
the executive mansion with Presi
dent Robert E. Swain to diacuas

STUDENTCOUNGIL
FACES MOTION ON !
ENFORCED DRILL
Will Decide Fate of Action
Started at Meeting
A Week Ago.
IS FIRST ACTUAL MOVE
Body Also Slated to Select
Members of Committee
For Annual Prom.
Continuing the action which was
begun last week, the Student
council will meet in special- ses-
slon thU afternoon for the primary
f purpo9e of voUn- a motton
which voices opposition toward
compulsory military drill. In addi
tion, the council will be occupied
with committee appointments for
the Junior-Senior Prom and with
discussion of a new constitution.
The Anti-drill motion, introduced
by William McClecry. senior coun
cil member, read as follows:
"1 move that the Student coun
1 1 compulsory military drill and
cil ec on recora as oeing opposea
that a committee be appointed to
appear before proper authorities
and state the council's stand," -Is
First Move.
If this motion is passed, it will
mark the first move which beara
any .emblence of concrete action
on the question of compulsory mil
itary science at this university. It
will also resolve itself into an ex
perimental venture on the part of
the council in determining just
how much weight its resolutions
carry in the eyes of higher author
ities. There is some student sentiment
to the effect that the Student
council would not be representing'
the will of the student body as a
whole by taking action, either
negative or affirmative, on the
motion. Conversely, however, there
are many who believe that such a
step would be clearly within the
council's jurisdiction. In view of
the opinions expressed by council
members at their last meeting the
motion is relatively sure to be suc
cessful. Whichever way the vota
goes it will be an interesting side
light on the council's interpreta
tion of its own powers. - -"'""'
some in Doubt.
Interviews with individual mem
bers of the Student council clearly
indicated that as far as they wera
personally concerned, a majority
opposed compulsory drill. A num
ber of them, however, expressed
a doubt as to whether they wera
acting within the sphere of their
rights by taking any action on such
a matter.
It is on this doubt that the vote
