Over Dramatic Festival and City
"The Dramatic Festival as it has

idea," declared petite Patricia Col-

theatre.
Miss Collinge will play the title
role in "Candida" by George Ber-
nard Shaw, opening next Friday
night as the second presentation on
the program of the Dramatic Fes-
tival. This play has been called
Shaw's best and most famous play.
"I especially admire the spirit
that has prompted the founders of
this project to continue it in the
midst of the universal pessimism,"
she said. "In the city, conditions
are terrible, everyone seems to
think that we are trembling on the
edge of an abyss.

Looking around the theatre, Miss
tollinge commented very favorably
on the League building and the Ly-

a wonderful little theatre here, how-
ever," she said, "for I have heard a
great deal about it from friends of
mine who have been out here be-
fore." .
Speaking of the part that she is
to play in "Candida," she remarked,
"The part is one that is very grati-
fying to an actress. It has the
glamour that is necessary to make7
a play famous. I believe that this
is one of Shaw's plays that will live,
and live."
Miss Collinge made a great hit

Illinois with 12 each. The rest of
the conference teams qualified as
follows: Minnesota. 11, Indiana 11,
Wisconsin 7, Purdue 4, Chicago 2,
and Northwestern 1.
With most of the qualifiers taking
it as easy as possible in the pre-
liminary heats, only one record was
threatened. In the first event of
the day, George Saling, Iowa's crack
hurdler, came within one-tenth of
a second of the world's record of
0:14.4 in the high hurdles, easily
wining his heat,

The best showing of the Wolver-
ine trackmen came in the 440-yard

Glading, Harold Ellerby and Charles.
DeBaker all came through to win
their heats. The Wolverines placed
at least one man in every event but
the javelin throw.

the 100-yard clash in 10 seconds flat,
but was beaten out by Bennett of
Ohio State in the 220. Campbell also
took a place in the 100.

events, while Ned Turner and Lem-

toss of 148 ft., 1% in. He also qual-
ified in the shot put. Rea i the

iner were the other Michigan quahi-
fiers.
Great interst has been aroused in
the hurdles events tomorrow over
the forthcoming battle between
George Saling and Jack Keller of
Ohio State. Both hurdlers have
come close to breaking the world's
r ecord in the highs, and are expect-
ed to have a great battle for first
place with the possibility of a new
record being established. No pre
limninlaries are held in the mile or
two-mile runs.
