YOU ARE CORDIALLY
LNVITED TO-
Som time ago, The-Daily published
an editorial entitled "A Dead Body,'
the body in question being the Inter-
fraternity council. The editorial was
by way of being a complaint that this
organization, founded for the purpose
of fostering a good spirit among the
various campus fraternal organiza-
tions, had crawled into its shell and
died. The Daily was apparently
wrong; it seems that the organization
was not dead, but sleeping, as the
tombstones say: for yesterday it woke
up long enough to pass a perfectly
ridiculous bit of legislation about fra-

December 17, in the Whitney theatre
-the same night, by the way, that
Professor Hollister presents Bernard
Shaw's "Arms and the Man" in Uni-
versity hall, a conflict of dates both
highly unfortunate and next to in-
excusable.
"Icebound," as a play, is excellent
theatre, it has a Broadway success to
its credit, and Phyllis Povah, a for-
mer member of Comedy Club--if such
a sentiment -adds to its local favor--
took the leading role in its New York
production.I
lThe third bill, to be offered some-
time in January, has been definitely
announced as "It. U. R.", the fantastic'
melodrama by Karel Capek, (pro-
nounced Shay-peck--accent on the
first syllable). The play was recently
presented in Cleveland with KatherineI
Wick Kelly in the cast, and pro-
nounced by the New York Times su-
perior even to the Theatre Guild per-
formance. Miss Kelly, incidentally,
will appear in the Ann Arbor produc-
tion.
Following their custom of present-
ing a frankly experimental produc-
tioi at their January program, Com-
edy Club will produce George Bernard
Shaw's three-act farce, "The Admir-
able Bashville," in Sarah Caswell An-
gell hall Thursday evening, January
15-nine days after college re-opens.
The performance becomes 'especially
significant since the directors have
just received word from Samuel
French, Shaw's American agent, that
according to their records this will be
the first authorized productIon of the
play in America; imagine the enthus-
iasm: a Shaw premier in Ann Arbor!
The play was selected before the or-
ganization realized this, merely be-
cause it seemed such a positive, rat-
tlingly funny burlesque-a radically l
modern farce on pugilism written in
Elizabethan blank verse: the possi-
bilities at the outset are tremendous.
The cast has been selected and re-
hersals are already in progress; the
