Two big audiences saw the Thanks

crowd was by far the largest OF the

at night. The feature of the evening
performance was the presence in the
boxes of the William and Mary and

hoxes had been draped with the re-
spective cclors of the schools, and
the victorious William and Mary boys
had contributed an additional collec-

boxes they occupied, or the right side
of the house.
This years production of the Isle
Of Spice is not liable TO capture any

ing and the audiences seemed easy
to please. At night the William and
