(By The Associated press.)

Oberammergau, Jan. 1.-The long
list of characters for the Passion play,
which will be produced here Number
of times In 1922, have been selected,
and rehea rsals have begun. The chief
roles will be played again by veterans,
some Of whom have participated in the
presentations for 40 years. ~
Anton Lang will portray the char
acter Of Christ for the third time. An
ton Lechner will be prologuist for the
second time. Other characters will be !:
Peter, Andreas Lang; John, Melchior
Breitsamter Judas, Guido Mayr; Gaia
phas, Hugo Rutz; King Herod, Grcgor
Breitsamter; Annas, Sebastian Lang !;
Plate, Hans Mayr; Mary, Martha
Seitz; Magdalene, Paula R.nd.
One of the last selections was Guido
Diemer for choir leader. There has
not been performance of the play for
so years that Diemer was not leader
of the choir or one of the important
singers in it. Guido Dicmcr took part
In the war, first as an artillcriSt and
later as an aviator. In 1919 he ded-
icated his life to the study Of singing.
and shortly afterwards appeared with
pronounced success in various church
concerts.
The Passion play committee decided
not to violate Oberammergau tradition
by permitting pictures to be taken of
the play. American moving picture
representatives approached the com
mittee with offers of millions Of marks
but their proposals were promptly re-
jected.

To Parade to Places.
1t is planned to have the horses in
each race go to Il tape placed at a
point eighty yards above the judges
stand, turn and parade back in the
positions allotted by the draw to Il
point eighty yards below the Judges
stand where IL man will be stationed in
the center of the track. At the tape
the horses will fall in single file. half

the track.
The horses will he compelled to turn
around this man and fall automatically

While the greatest advantage OF the
system will be to force all horses to
approach the starter abreast and with
no animal out of place, it will also aid
greatly in reducing the number OF
