jamestown College Notes

The recent play given by the chris
tan associations proved an entire suc-
cess. The play, What Happened to
Jones, tells the humorous tale of a
peddler for a hymn book house mis-
taken for a bishop. Complications
came fast and to untangle the plot
occupied the entire attention of the
cast and the audience, who showed
their thorough appreciation by their
close interest from beginning to end.
Students who took parts of various
characters all showed the effects of
careful preparation and attention to
their parts. The leading part, Jones,
was taken by Herbert Kroeze who well
sustained the part OF a typical stage
travelling man and appeared as a pro-
fessional behind the f%ootlights.
The cast of characters was as fol-
lows:
