U. OF N. STUDENTS TO
sing FOR OMAHA
Kosmet Klub Will Produce Mu-
steal Comedy at Brandeis
Theater Soon.
oMAHANS HAVE THE LEADS

In Argonia, one of the numerous
islands of the Aegean sea, under the
protectorate of Turkey, is the scene
laid of the action of "The Diplomat"
the dashing musical comedy which
the Kosmet Klub OF the University
of Nebraska will present at the
Brandeis theater Saturday, April 81.
Two acts offer opportunity for some
brilliant stage effects, the first being
laid in the palace of the dictator, the
second in his summer cottage.
Omaha Students in Leads.
"The Dictator" the leading role, is
presented by an Omaha boy, Walter
c. Johnson, 28l0 California street,
with Ellsworth Moser, sos Florence
boulevard, in the second lead" as
General Paulos. Brooks Vance, 2002
Emmett street, another Omahan, as
Freddie Wilmington, presents one of
the principal characters, and Les
Putt, 1928 Lincoln boulevard, por-
trays the dashing Lieutenant Akin.
Miss Katherine Newbranch, 1902
South Thirty-third street, is one of
the six leading dancers for this mu-
steal comedy, and several other
Omaha people are members of the
chorus, which, with the cast, totals
fifty people.
University students who have been
working under the direction of the
author, Prof. R. l.. Scott of the state
institution, make up the large COM
pany necessary to produce this conf
edy, including the specially trained
chorus Of thirty-fve, which has been
for weeks under the supervision of
special voice and dancing instructors.
Extra effort has been made this year
to emphasize the work of the chorus,
and it is believed to be one of the
features of the production.
Some Real Song Hits.
Musical hits are not lacking in the
comedy. One of the big successes is
Il Like to Flirt Bit Myself" duet,
one of the singers being Mr.. johnson,
in his role as the Dictator. Two
other song successes are "If You
Want to Know the Secret" and
Honest, Dear, I Love You"
The music and words for "The Dip
lomat were written by Nebraskans,
and with an all-Nebraska company
producing it, the State university
alumni in Omaha have arranged for
a production of more than ordinary
to Omaha people.

GrinneH Urges That the
Farmers Put Out Biu Cr0p

J. B. Grinnell, secretary of the Ne

Omaha, suggested that the farmers
should use every effort to raise the
largest possible crop in view of the
demands for food stuffs that the
war will bring on.
"An army must be fed" said Sec
rotary Grinnell," and in order that
they may be fed the greatest possible
crops must be raised. I know num-
Der of farmer boys, not yet of age,
who are planning to run away from
home and join the army. If those
boys only knew it, they could do just
as much for the cause by staying
at home and helping their fathers to
raise big crops and so put the nation
in position to meet its crisis in
the best possible condition as to
available resources"

as many as possible in the regular

he expects to have all Greek recruits
assigned to the same regiment, thus
providing solid body of men of that
nationality.

peclally acceptable to them, it is
thought
