THEATRE

FRED MURPHY YALE STAR

The next offering to be given by
the "Romany Theatre," the unique
community playhouse on Winslow
street, will be "Mr. Pirn Passes,"
which will be presented the week of
February tenth.
"Mr. Pirn Passes" is a sparkling
English comedy by A. A. Miln, one
of England's premier writers, and its
production in this theatre will inaugurate the custom of alternating light
and heavy drama.
Though all of the parts have not
been cast it is safe to say that one
of the leading roles wi'll be given- to
Marjorie Warden, that sterling little
actress who played the part of "Julie"
in "Lilliom" with a perfection which
was wonderful. The part which she
will
probably carry in "Mr. Pirn
Passes' will ibe "Olivia."
Violet Young, who was a'lso a success in the last play will play the part
of Diana. The part of Lady Marden
will be acted iby Regina
Stanfield.
George Marden will be played by Mr.
Morehouse.
Oscar Hambleton, the man that
made the audience laugh in "Lilliom"
will appear in a role which will cause
no end of merriment to those present,
when he presents
himself as Mr.
Strange. Troy Perkins will act the
part of Mr. Pirn and Ann wall be enacted by Elizabeth Moorman, who
acquitted herself splendidly in "Lilliom."
Tickets for this play will be placed
on sale within the next few days and
it is hoped by the management that
enough students will buy tbam in order that 'wo University nights may
be held instead of one.

was chosen football and baseball
coach at the University of Kentucky
by the Athletic council at its meeting
Saturday night, wired his acceptance
Monday. Murphy will come to the
University March 1 to take charge of
the spring football training.
The decision of the athletic council
to offer Murphy the position came
only after much deliberation. Several
prominent coaches of the south and
west were up for consideration and it
was only after the council had gone
deep into the matter that Murphy was
selected for the position of resident
football and baseball coaeh. A wire
was sent to Murphy, who is residing
in Chicago and the former Yale star
sent in his acceptance Monday. Murphy will sign a three-yea- T
contract and
will start on his duties in earnest next
fall.
The contract of Cy Barger,
present Wildcat baseball coach, still
has one year more to run.
Murphy graduated from Yale in 1910

of the state will open their attack on

February 15 with a debate between
the University of Kentucky and
Georgetown College, the subject for
debate being, 'Resolved that France
is justified in the Ruhr occupation."
On the same date the University will
be honored with a recital by Thomas
C. Trueblood Who will render a number of selections from Mark Twain.
Dr. Truablood is head of the department of Public Speaking at the University of Michigan, and will be remembered by many of the older
members of the faculty of this institution, having been professor of Public Speaking here in 1884-d
Dr.
will also serve as one of the
judged in the debate after his recital.
Professor William P. Sutherland
has issued a call for a joint meeting
of all debaters and speakers who are
working on the World Court debate,
the Ruhr debate, and the Washington
Birthday Address, to meet in the
Little Theatre on Monday afternoon
at 4:30 p. m. when matters of importance will be brought before the
members.
Professor Sutherland has been very
active in not only the debating work
of his department, but in all production work on the campus, and the student body feels assured that he will
produce a winning team.
