Children's Theatre
Selects Plays
For
g Season'sProgram
I By JEWEL WUERFEL
Entering its third year of activity
, on campus, the Children's Theatre
, is planning a program of three plays
h which will furnish children with a
n real audience and offer students of
- the University and adults of the city
s, an opportunity to gain stage exper-
e ience.
s The plays have been selected to
appeal to the imagination of children,
- containing elements of the fantastic
e and impossible as well as being highly
e colored with adventure. Although
e written for the youthful audience, the
o plays are not lacking in appeal for
adults for they are productions of
merit and ability.
Windt To Direct
The three plays to be presented
this year are "Aladdin and His Won-
derful Lamp," one of the adventures
of the life of Robin Hood, and "Alice
in Wonderland." Valentine B. Windt,
director of Play Production, will di-
rect these productions.
- Parts in these plays will be mostly
a taken by adults. Singing and danc-
" ing scenes will be done by children
a and when the script calls for a young
s boy or girl a student of one of the
e public schools will play the part. All
. other rolls will be taken by either
e members of the University faculty,
f townspeople, or students of the Uni-
versity.
n- Students To Take Part
Although Play Production is co-
e operating with the League in these
- productions, students not enrolled in
y l this department may also take part,
. I either in acting parts, or backstage
. assisting with the scenery, make-up
and costumes.
Students of the Uniyersity and
, townspeople interested in taking part
in any of the three plays to be offered
may try out from 4 to 6 p.m. today in
. the Garden Room of the League.

Hallowe'en Observance Derived
From Ancient British Customs
By KATHRYN MOORE
Once more Ann Arbor is invaded
by hordes of black cats, witches on
their broomsticks, orange moons,
grinning pumpkin faces, ghostly skel-
etons, and tall stalks of yellow corn,
for Hallowe'en is again with us.
This day, now given over to such
pastimes as ducking for apples and
pinning tails on black paper cats and
to the pranks of mischievous boys,
has a long history. Although now
commonly associated with Christian-
ity, as the eve before All Hallows, the
festival of All Saints, it originated
in England as part of the ceremonies
of the Druids, the priests of the pre-
historic Celtic race.
"Vigil of Saman"
In some parts of Ireland it is still
called the "Vigil of Saman," who was
the pagan lord of death. It was
thought that Saman called together
certain wicked souls on that day and
the belief that this, of all days of
the year, was the one on which
ghosts and witches were most likely
to be abroad originated then as a
result. Bonfires are another survival
from this period.
Later, during the Roman occupa-
tion of England, the day acquired
some of the characteristics of the
Roman festival in honor of Pomona,
held about the same time of year.
Nuts and apples, representing the
winter store of fruits, played an im-
portant role in the ceremonies, and
these are still associated with the
day.
Consulting Future
From Scotland we got the custom
of consulting the future to learn the
name of our partner in life. The
Scotch are very superstititious about
this festival, and among their many
beliefs was the one that children

born on Hallowe'en were able to see
and to talk to super-natural beings.
The day has undergone many
changes. Our fathers tell us that the
present celebration has degenerated
greatly from that of even a few
years ago, and our present ceremonies
are tame compared with theirs. Their
stories of buggies hoisted to the roof-
tops and of fence doors carried far
away are many.
Hallowe'en long ago lost its orig-
inal meaning, but its symbols, orange
pumpkins and black cats, its witches
and skeletons still persist.
