Dolmetsch of England and Miss Kath-
leen Salmon, under the auspices of the
university musical and dramatic COM
mittee. The instruments used by mu-
sicians in Shakespeare's time will be

More than passing interest Is being

of the faculty will be subjected in the

in the cast, Ophelia will be played
by one of the authors, Harold Clarke.
Grover O'Connor will be Hamlet"
thoroughly up-to-date. Harry Leach
has the part of Claudius. Max Waiz-

Rogers Horatio. l. II. Cromwell
has the part of Guildenstern and w.
N Wright is to be "Rosencrantz."
Felipe Buencamino will appear as
Yusi, the Celestial cook for Ophelta,
a role invented especially for the occa-
sion. All of these men have had ex-
perience with college dramatic affairs.
The sophomore class has not, hitherto,
however, attempted anything of such
magnitude as this burlesque, having
been content in the past with minstrel
shows and the like.
