Beginning December 7, the Romany
theatre will present for one week
"The Wild Duel:."
Henrik Ibsen
Today there is a great preponderance
of opinion that Ibsen is the greatest
dramatist since Shakespeare, and
there is even more unanimity of
opinion that "The Wild Duck" is
among his greatest dramas.
Several players who have appeared
in other Romany productions are reappearing in the cast of "The Wild
Duck." Regina Stanfield, who did excellent parts in "Liliom" and "The
Intimate Srangers," has been playing
the past year with the Stuart Walker
Company in Cincinnati, and will carry
several important roles with the same
company this winter in New York
after her work with the Romany as
Wallace
Gina in "The Wild Duck."
Sanders is well remcmWared for
many varied and inerestihg interpretations in Romany productions.
Mrs. J. H. Powers carried the title
role in "Candida."

order to find out the possible outcome, the university is conducting a
straw vote to be held on vhe campus
December 3 and 4. In connection

university is fostering a World Court
conference to be held here Dec. 12
and 1.', under the auspices of the local
and city Y. M. and Y. W. associations.
To vote intelligently in the

aims to present the
original interpretation of "The Wild
Duck" ns revealed in the several
translations of the play and in Ibsen'e
notes and letters, an interpretation
diametrically opposed to the customary gloomy interpretation given in
previous American ana English productions.
Contain Humor and Satire
In the play Ibsen is not only making jolly snort of the superficial idealist who believes himself a great
thinker a type we all know and
enjow laughing at up our sleeves
but he also points a warning finger
at the incompetent pessimists who be
lievc it their duty to destroy the
peace of mind of others in order to
fulfill hazy theories that have no application to the situation at hand.
This presentation of the play as a
comedy does not repress the genial
humor of the play, nor does It eclipse
the tender pathos and sharp satire
of its action.
The play has been in rehearsals two
weeks and, if one may judge by the
work already done, the Romanys productions of "The Wild Duck" will
prove as delightful and entertaining
as was its charming presentation of
"Candida" last month.

ment of music and composed of the
orchestra of the University of Kentucky, will give its first concoli for
this year on Sunday afternov..., November 21, at 3:30 o'clock in the university gymnasium.
These programs have been very
popular all through the school years
and are attended by people who are
interested in the higher type of musical expression. The students who fail
to attend these performances do not
know what they are missing for it
the purpose of the society to assist
in giving the university a true cultural atmosphere and to gie the
members of the student body an opportunity of becoming acquainted
with the classics.
The performance is not given with
the purpose of reforming anyone but
will contribute an afternoon's entertainment to the esthetic and better
nature of the students.
The orchestra of 30 pieces is made
up of carefully chosen musicians from
the student body and supplemented
by some of the best musicians in Lexington. The music is the same as
that which is played by the symphony
orchestras in the larger cities.
The program for Sunday afternon

Dewhurst,

one of the most prominent of the
graduates of the class of '24, is at
his home on Haggerman Court, suf-

fering from serious burns received
in an automobile fire which occurred
at Micanopy, Fla., October 6.
Dewhurst and his fater, T. B. Dewhurst, of this city, were enroute to
Miami in their car and had stopped
at Micanopy, on account of tire

repaired, a Ford truck sitting in front
of the gasoline tank caught fire, and
Dewhurst, jumping from the car,
joined the bystanders in an effort to
extinguish the flames.
One of the men seized the gasoline
hose pipe from the tank of the truck
and in trying to get it clear, whipped
it around, throwing the blazing gasoline into Dewhurst's face, severely
burning him on the neck, face, right
arm and hands. Mr. Dewhurst, Sr.,
was also badly burned about the hands
and arms in, attempting to smother
the flames around his son's head,
but was able to continue on his way
to Miami after his injuries had been
treated.
Branthewaite, however, was forced
to remain in Micanopy for a week,
under the care of physicians, being
treated with hot oil applications. He
arrived in Lexington Monday night,
and is now at the home of his mothsr.
His Lexington physician, Dr. R. J.
Estill, announces that his condition
is very satisfactory, all the burns on
his face having entirely healed.
Mr. Dewhurst is a member of the
Kappa Alpha fraternity, and during
his four years on the university campus was prominent in sports and other
activities.

CHANGES

TO TAKE

EFFECT DEC.

1

Students will not have to go to
the Lexington post office after December 1, to mail nackages, send
money orders or man parcels home.
Miss Carrie Bean has received an
appointment, from the Post " Office
General of Washington, D. C, which
authorizes her to take charge of the
post office, in the gymnasium which
will be recognized as University Station. By this appointment, Miss Bean
will be authorized to take care of all
outgoing mail and packages. This
will be a great service to the students
as the convenience will enable them
to turn over their parcels which will
be sent directly through the Lexington mails.
This is something new and with
the able cooperation, of Miss Bean
will save time and trouble. She will
continue her positpn as assistant
manager of the boo.- - store and the
new work will not interfere with her
other duties. The university book
store has been of great assistance to
the students and she, together with
Frank Battaile, have fostered every
attempt to meet the needs of the
students of the university.
