John F. Chambers, celebrated read
er and Interpreter, will appear at
Augustana college Thursday evening
as one of the star attractions on the
seasons lyceum course. Although "A
Grand Army Man" is his principal
work this year, Chambers interprets
other masterpieces, such as "Mer-
chant of Venice" Our New Minister"
besides a miscellaneous program a
Grand Army Man" is a sparkling COM
edy drama with distinctive Ameri-
cen atmosphere. II is constructed
along modern lines and deals with the
problems of the home. Having per-
sonally directed upward of one hun
Gred standard plays for theatrical pro-
duction. Chambers has had exceptional
advantages for studying plots and
characters, aside from MS own
versatility in interpreting many
well-known dramatic characters. He
has made a long and careful study of
his art, is possessed of a fine voice,
splendid presence and pleasing per-
sonality. Without employing theat-
rical effects, unass!sted by oener per
sens, and without the use of wigs,
makeups, theatrical decisions and
other mechanical devices, Mr. Cham,
bers presents the plot, scenes and
characters of a play in such a man,
ner that the audience loses sight of
the impersonator and sees only his
characters as they come and go, feels
their presence and appreciates their
motives and desires.
