COMMITTEE REPORT.
Student Theatrical Committee Has
Not Found Meritorious Attraction.

At the recent mass meeting of the
U. N. D. A. A. no report was made
by the committee on the theatrical at
fractions. In justice to the student
body it should be made acquainted
with the work of the committee.
Briefly, it has been found that up to
the present time no attractions of spe-
cial merit have been booked by the
local management and there are none
which the committee feel justified in
recommending.
Not a few plays, however, and
sometimes the best, are secured at the
last moment to fill an open date.
Your committee will endeavor to
watch Manager Myers bookings and
the announcements in order to publish
a notice in the event that something
good may be enjoyed at the playhouse
