"As a whole, I like the play very
much. It was very clever of Miss
Mcwer and Miss Raine to. transform
into such good entertainment some-
thing that was neither musical or'
comic. The high spots of the play for
me were the "Peter Blues," sung by
Miss Maloy, and the "Buggy Song," of
Miss Ackerman's rendition was even
unexpectedly funny. On the other

well done, Miss Gruber's especially.
As for the direction, it cannot be
praised tcao highly. Much of the suc-
cess, and the smoothness of the per-
formance is obviously due to the work
of Miss Miller.
"I was a little disappointed," said
Professor Jack in conclusion, "in the
settings and the costumes. I do not
mean to say that they were not good
as far as they went. But they were so
unadventurous. In Media, especially,
there was a great deal of opportunity
for elaborateness and brilliancy, but
the settings even here were conven-
tional. The play was very pleasant,
but I should have liked more fantasy."
