Molnar play, The Swan" returned
from luncheon one day and gathered
his cast together to resume work.
When he called for the king Ia part
played by Croker King, the English
actor the director was informed that
the king had gone to repair his make
up -,
His makeup was correct-tell him
not TO change it," said Buchowetzki.
In q few minutes the missing actor
appeared, distress written all over his
face, which was bearded with crepe
hair in the fashion of the period of
Philip II Of Spain. Inquiry as to the
cause Of his apparent unhappiness
revealed the fact that the king had
unwittingly eaten half of his crepe
hair beard with his luncheon. King
had enjoyed his meal, until on rising
from the table he caught glimpse of
himself in the mirror. With alarm
he noticed that he had only half his
beard on. After an unavailing search
in his coffee cup, in his napkin and
under the table, the actor repaired
to his dressing room to replace the
loss -s-s.
or the thousand uses to which crepe
hair may be put there is nothing in
the directions for It's use TO suggest
1t as an interior decoration for actors.

Princeton Dramatic Club was formed
20 meet the growing need for under
graduate expression in this line.
For the first decade of It's life at
tention was devoted mainly to the
standard plays of the time. Under
the presidency OF Booth Harrington,
in 1898, the present Triangle Club
separated from the Dramatic Club,
which since that has. continued in its
field of serious drama.
The new organization, affiliated
with the Glee and Mandolin clubs, as
sumed its present title in recognition
OF its three-sided functions. Under
the new regime the policy of produc-
Ing musical comedies composed in
whole by the undergraduates, which
previously had been tried. was adopt
ed, and has continued in vogue ever
since. A student orchestra soon re-
placed the Mandolin Club. Its devel-
opment since that time has been
largely one of scope and popularity.
Among those who have been fore
most In the presentation OF past Tri-
angle productions are Booth Tarking-
ton, '93, who holds high place in
tho ranks Of American novelists. and
the late John Kendrick Bangs, '92.
In the business world are Roy
s. Durstine, 'oS, successful New York
advertiser and publicist, and Cyrus
Mccormick, IL, who deserted his
early literary pursuits to take up a
position with the Mccormick Har-
vester Co. after graduation. The

Opposition to Federal regulation of
cooperative marketing agencies was
voiced today before the Senate Agri-

secretary of the National Council of
Cooperative Marketing Agencies.
ANY plan for Federal regulation
is Objectionable to farmers organize
tions," Mr.. Petect stated, because it is
felt they would be Disseminated
against in being brought under Fed
eral Jurisdiction, which doesn't apply
to the business life of the country as

"Experiece has taught that cooper
atives should be organized and owned
by farmers; that the organizations
must rise naturally out of natural
needs, and that it is not wise to have
artificial stimulation or interference
by Government agencies, no matter
how mild or beneficent"
