BLACKFRIARS PLAY

Tuscaloosa, April 1S.-tSpecial.)-- On Friday night the Blackfriar play CTS of the university played to Q packed house at the Elks theatre in Tuscaloosa, presenting their annual spring bill. The performance was in every way distinct success and was proclaimed by many to. be the best that the Blackfriars have ever put on.
 Having just returned from the most
 suspicious road trip in their history a tour of south Alabama-and having
 been heralded by the press in every city in which they appeared as ar attraction of the very first order, the
 Blackfriars had been looked forward
 to with keen interest in Tuscaloosa
 for several weeks. The departure
 from the usual programme of ore-
 evening dramas proved a popular in-
 rovation. Instead of the three-act play
 which it has been it's custom to pre-
 sent the Blackfriars put on five one
 act plays, consisting \ of a satirical
 comedy, a comedy of youth, farce,
 tragedy and comedydrama, the latter being From Bug Tussle to BirminG-
 ham" the Alabama 1921 prize play
 written by Lancelot Hendricks a post graduate student at the University.
 Each of the plays e1icited considerable applause, and 1t was necessary for the
 players to respond to numerous curtain calls.
 '"rhe Last Man h." grim and grip ping tragedy, was made notable by the first appearance on Tuscaloosa stage in many years of Hudson Strode, the faculty director of the club. In the tragic title role in this play Mir. Strode was nothing short of wonder full. He held his audience spelbound, and profound silence accompanied the fall of the curtain, which was sue ceeded in an instant by storm of ap- plause
 Birmingham was well represented or the various casts in Armstrong Cory,
 Alan Drennen and Inez Thames. Each of these appeared to- be outstanding favorites of the evening.
 The Blackfriars go to Birmingham on Wednesday, April 20, playing at the Jefferson theatre under the auspices of the Church of the Advent. The bill to be presented there is slightly diff ferent from the one put on at Tusca- loosa Friday night. and will consist 1 of s'The Man Upstairs" a comedy; The Last Man In," tragedy; "The Constant
 Lover" q comedy of youth; From Buzz Tussle to Birmingham" the prize stu 1 dent-written play, and "The Cure for | Jealousy" 8 comedy
 The last named of these plays will 1 reintroduce to the Birmingham theatre l going public their own Inez Thames. 1 who will be remembered favorably for 1 her participation in the Central High l school play of last year. Miss Thames l has Just recently been added to the 1 Blackfriar cast, and has already proven
 worthy of the confidence placed in her 1 by the director.
