HOWARD PLAYERS
 TO PRESENT PLAY

The Howard Players under the di rection of Mrs. F. Y. Anderson will present Jerome K. Jerome's inim- table farce comedy, Fanny and the Servant Problem" at the Jefferson theatre this evening. The Players gave an excerpt from the play at the chapel hour on Friday.
 Professor Burns made a few intro- ductory remarks, outlining the situ- alton of the play. The scene of the play Is an old, honored English es- tate dominated and ruled over by an old family servant. the butler and his equally domineering retinue of maids and lesser lights. The young lord of the castle, nephew of the old dowager. whom the servants in love with beautiful young ae- tress and unusually enough, married her. It so happens that the young actress, Fanny, Is the niece of the butler. The young lord brings his bride home to his ancestral esta.e and the comedy arises from the sit uation which develops when Fanny confronts and tries to manage the servants.
 Friday represented a clash between Fanny and her uncle, the butler wno Is endeavoring to manage her in his usual high handed manner. The part of the butler is well portrayed by B. R. Justice and that of Fanny by Roberta Trechsel.
