PRESENT DRAMA BY EURIPIDES
"Trojan Women" Secured to Further
Peace Movement
"Trojan Women," the production of
the Little Theater company of Chicago,
will be presented at the Whitney thea-
ter tomorrow. The play is given to
forward the peace movement, and each
member of the company receives a
salary equal to that of every other.

is charitable in nature, their pay being
only large enough to cover their daily
expenses.
The play is a Greek drama by Euri-
pides, and its Ann Arbor performance
was secured through the combined
efforts of the Drama and Women's
Leagues. The production carries with
it special scenery, and something un-
usual is promised in the way of stage
effects.

ings before vacation, the faculty night,
which numbered four sessions, and the
Sunday programs,which have been run
since the close of the football season
last fall, are included among the events
which have, been postponed. There is
some likelihood that George Ade, the
famous humorist and writer, will be in
Ann Arbor for a special Union Sunday
program.

ti
tion. Penzotti was selected from a
group of four contestants at the local
contest held here several weeks ago.
The winner of the state contest to-
morrow night will receive a prize of
$50, and will represent the state in
the interstate contest which will fol-
low the one at Adrian. The prize for
the interstate contest will be $75, while
the national prize will reward the win-
ner with $100.
Penzotti's subject is "Our National
Struggle," in which he emphasizes the
point that the saloon lives directly by
the ballot, and that it must eventually
be destroyed by means of the ballot.
Michigan's representative has received
the assistance of some of the instruct-
ors in the oratory department, and this
coaching should enable him to make
a good showing.
