CUPID AT VASSAR

The Senior Glass of the Nor
 nal are entitled to high honors
 for their histrionic ability. says
 the Coconino Sun, commenting
 on the class presentation of Gu
 pid at Vassar" in Flagstaff last
 week. Miss Irene Whetstone. daughter of Judge and Mrs. Sid ney Sapp, and Miss Zella Brink erhoff, two of Holbrook's charm
 ing young ladies, who share the success of the play enhance the interest of our readers in the article:
 Cupid at Vassar" was the comedy drama that brought out surprising talent. Miss Ruby Bayless as Kate Newton took the part of the vivacious college girl with all the ease and grace of a professional actress of years ex- perience. Harold Blome as, the young lover with troubles came through with the ease of one who was doing things as they hap pened. John Matthews as the rich villianous lover, made all true lovers dislike him and hope  that he would get what they knew he would in the end. Ju- Iius Aubineau as "Shiny''NNthe lazy darkey, and Robert Caring as Hank Gubbin" the hired man, put up splendid imitation of the real article and kept the large audience amused with their clever acting. Miss Nina Hal bert as the step mother of Kate Newton," Miss Lillian .Choat as the jealous stepsister, and Miss Nora Traitor as preceptress at Vassar made realistic back ground for the principals.
 The jolly college girls with their fudge parties and college songs were: Miss Gladys St. Charles, Miss Irene Milestone, Miss Flora Jensen. Miss Mabel Van Marter, Miss Inez Earl, Miss Elsie Anderson. Miss Zella Brink erhoff.
 The large theatre building was crowded to the doors, in fact the house has been sold out days in advance of the event.
