'High Tor' Receives Praise
From First Nighter Critic
Mueller, Albin Take Acting
Honors in University
Players Fantasy.
By Fern Steutcville.
"Hih Tor" is a confusing- play.
It is listed as a comedy, but it re
mains a mystery. When the Play
ers presented the show last night,
miraculously minus most of the
usual first night boners, WaUlemar
Mueller and Flora Albin presented
scenes, bordering between the fan
tastic and the teal, that were more
beautiful than the troupe's follow
ers have seen nil season.
Jcnks Plays Indian Role.
An open stage, the lower half
the rugged peak of the mountain
Tor and above, the blue-black sky
between sunset and sunrise, with
intermittent rolls of thunder and
flashes of liuhtning, furnished the
setting from which an Indian, Hart

offered a magnificent prayer to
the god of the dying fire; six

day.
Barb Council Supports.
Further student support in favor
of the proposal was advanced
when the llarb council met last
Thursday afternoon and unani
mously voted to extend a "hearty
approval of the action of the
Student Council in regard to en
couraging the Board of Regents
to accept the Choir as a university
organization."
The petition presented by the
Student Council wit a the signa
ture of every member attached
asked that the board do one thing
for the Great Cathedral Choir;
provide a room that it can defi
nitely call its own. The Choir, un
der the direction of John Ros
borough. has offered to pay any
expense that it will incur outside
of its upkeep of its room. At the
present time, flic organization is
very self-supporting, having re
fused many grants offered it by
music-loving Lincoln people.
First Big Thing.
"This is the first big thing that
the university has been offered for
some time. llliam Clayton, sttl
dent council member in charge of
the petition, stated. "This Choir
if we can say that it is part of
the university, will really put this
institution on the map. Right nowi
the Choir is singing material that I
only three or four other famous
choirs in the country are singing."
"We must make it clear that
the Choir is not asking to be taken
into the university," Clayton
added. "It' is asking whether or
not the university would like to
have it. Members of the Student
Council feel that the Choir has
more to offer the university in
the form of publicity and fame
than the university iin to offer
it."
Extended Eastern Tour.
The Lincoln Cathedral Choir for
a time sang at a large church in
Lincoln. When too many people
becan to believe that the Choir
was composed entirely of member
of that sect, it became the organ
ization of its present form.
Last yenr the Choir took an ex
tended trip thru the East, singing

Tt is a noble effort for student
actors to try to give a convincing
characterization of the old crew of
the Onrust. The Dutchmen have

300 years, have remained young
while slowly becoming mere voices
in the air, figures seen thru the
light; yet they still have their fun
by bowling rocks and fireballs at
the steam shovel and the beacon , and a girl who wants him to. The

men who have enchanted them and end, win out, but not before the

The university symphony or
chestra, climaxing a period of un
usual musical activity, will be
heard this morning on the Charter
Day program, along with Dorothy
Canfiekl Fisher, one of Nebraska's
distinguished contributions to the
field of literary art. This con
tribution by the orchestra is a
special one, and will be followed
by another of the regular sym
phony concerts on March 6.
For today's musical program, j
the orchestra will open with the
overture "Euryanthe," by Von
Weber, the German composer. Two
Slavonic dances by Dvorak, in A
flat and C major, will serve to
liven up the proceedings, while
Massenet's "Phedre" will finish
the group in fine measure. There
is no reason why students should
miss the wonderful program this
morning, as all classes are dis
missed at ten o'clock.
We hope that a large number
will take advantage of the op
portunities to be ejoyed by partici
pation in "Billy" Quick's Univer
sity Players orchestra. In addition
to seeing all Players productions
without cost, you will find that this
group offers excellent chances for
ensemble work, since it is small
anough for each musician to re
available in larger organizations.
In other words, this orchestra has
all the properties of a well-organized
jam session in the pursuit
of study of the light classics. If
you own or play an Instrument,
and are not otherwise crowded for
activity time, may be suggest that
you drop over to Mr. Quick's of
fice in the School of Music and
see him at your earliest oppor
tunity? The recital program for tomor
row will be presented by Doris
Foreman, piano student of Her
bert Schmidt, who is giving her
senior recital at this time. Re
flecting the apparent local prefer
ence for Bach, Miss Foreman will
open her program with his Fan
tasy in C minor.
