Sherwood Played
To a Packed House

The Junior class play "Sherwood F"
given at the Grand last night was
played before packed house, and from
start to finish the audience had the
feeling that they were watching pro-
fessionals acting rather than amateurs.
Professor Wallace MacMurTay who had
charge of the play deserves much cred
| it for the excellent manner in which
the play was presented.
The play was long, taking four
hours to present, but the audience was
so interested in the unfolding Of the
plot that the hours flew by unheeded.
the bold deeds Of the daring Robin
Hood and his bonnie outlaws held the
attention Of the crowd throughout.
Miss Violet Maclean in the role of
Lady Marian, the sweetheart of Robin
Hood, played her part in a true and
realistic manner, and many who are
capable of judging said that she play
ed her part better than many a profess
siOnaL Earl Flegel as the Earl of
Huntington, later the outlaw Robin
Hood, portrayed the part with a fer.
vor. He had the heavies role Of the
entire play appearing in every act, and
yet he never missed a cue. Laban
Sleeves, the court fool, had very
difficult part to interpret yet he show.
ed himself to very good advantage.
Carl Reetz, who took the double role
of Lord Fitzwalter and also the part
lof King Richard was naturally fitted
for the part having deep voice and
strong physique. Miss ROsamond Gil
bert as Queen Elinor had the part Of
the william and played her role so well
the audience paid her the compliment
Of hating her. Wallace Adams as the
william King John played his part
splendidly.
Willis Bartlett as little John caused
a laugh with every action, altho in a
minor part ne showed his ability as an
actor.
Stanley Van Wrinkle as the genial
friar could not have been surpassed in
well in the minor part of maid to Mar
ian. The second act was one thorough.
Ily enjoyed, as the fairy court Assem-.
bled and danced as only fairies could.
Three solo dances that were applauded
were those by Miss Irml Botsford,
Miss Esther Taylor and Mr.. Bert Ford.
These dances were given in changing
spot light and were tae event of the
act. Besides the solo dance Miss Bots.
ford appeared in three distinct roles
and was applauded in all.
The Queen Of the May and her at.
tendants were present, occupying the
upper left box.

swim; 1t is a splendid form of erer-
else, judged from the standpoint of
physiology, resulting in improved
health accompanied by ease and grace
of carriage; it imparts helf-relianee
and courage, which become elements
in ones character, increasing one s
power both for good and against evil;
and finally it may prove the means of
saving life.
Realizing from these facts the neces-
sity for action, The Young Men s
Christian Associations have undertaken
to teach swimming ON very compre-
hensive basis, their slogan being
"every man and boy in America a
swimmer.
The Salem Young Mems Christian
Association is one in the great chain
of associations in North America. CO.
operating with. the other associations
it is the aim of the Salem association
in as far as it is possible to have every
man, woman and child Of sufficient age
in Salem a swimmer.
The question Immediately arises
How can swimming be taught on such
a comprehensive basis9 A later article
on the same subject win contain sug,
gestions as to how the local Y. NJ. G.
A. hopes to accomplish this task.
