c. j. DRAMA UNIT
DOUBLES ROLLS
Radio Broadcasting Added
to Departments Stage
Presentation Work.

The recently organized department
OF speech and drama at Catholic Uni
versity, an outgrowth of the Blackfriar
Institute, is in its second year with an
enrolment double that Of the 1937-38
academic year. The department has
developed from small group Of
students interested In drama, who met
informally until it became necessary
to organize definite courses to care for
their expanding needs.
The Rev. Gilbert v. Hartke, O. p,
moderator OF the Blackfriars' Guild,
has taken charge Of the work of the
new department in the graduate school
and has added radio broadcasting,
stage direction and similar subjects
to the formal stage presentation work.
The new styles of stagecraft are
used and contrasted with the tradi-
tional sets, all of which are built,
painted, adapted or planned by the
amateur actors, with expenses borne
by the receipts from the dramatic
productions. The Trinity College
students work with the Catholic Uni
versity undergraduate Harlequins,
whose productions are staged in the
auditorium of the Music Building. The
guild stages its plays at st. Pauls
>auditorium.
Besides staging plays, the students
are encouraged to study and write
their own. The best of these are then
staged, the entire class or department
cooperating in the production. Last
year several well-known personages in
the professional theater including
Orson Welles, Julie Hayden, Sara ALL
good and Paul Vincent Carroll, gave
the members of these groups the benefit
OF their experiences in informal dis
cussion. The same plan will be fol-
lowed this year and already Father
Hartke has secured Clayton Hamilton,
Eva Condor and George M. Cohan for
visits and talks with his students.
Other leading players and playwrights
will be invited to talk with the drama
group as they appear on Washington
stages
With radio becoming a dramatic
medium. courses in broadcasting and
script writing have been introduced.
Already the classes in radio script
writing are preparing several plays,
dramatizing the lives Of eminent lit
erary figures. These programs will be
presented over local station as the
contribution of the dramatic groups
to the Catholic University's Year OF
Golden Jubilee.

A cascade Of silvery notes greeted
my ear. I paused and wished the
courteous butler would prolong the

he announced me to Nine. Marc
Peter, chatelaine Of the Swiss Lega-
ton at 6 Kalorama Circle.
This popular member of the diplo-
matte corps, whose husband has for
IL years been the representative in
Washington of Switzerland, has smil-
ing, friendly blue eyes I found as she
rose from piano to greet me. Hers
is the gracious simplicity, too, of a
lady trained for whatever position in
life she might find herself
She has always been associated with
public service, since in addition to
marrying a lawyer and 4 diplomat,
her father, Adrien Lachenal, was long
connected with the Swiss government,
and her only brother sits In the Swiss
Congress.
One of Nine. Peters most vivid
schoolgirl recollectionS goes back to

found her best party frock laid out
upon her bed with brand-new set
Of blue hair ribbons, and instruc-
tions from her mother, that in the
sudden and unavoidable absence OF an
expected guest, she was to appear in
the drawing room and have dinner
with a group of government officials
and their wives.
Quite as vividly, too, does she re-
member her mothers gentle chiding
afterwards, to the effect that as the
daughter of the hostess, she had not
sufhciently exerted herself to talk to
the much older dinner guests to her
right and left. but had too intently
concerned herself with the excellent
dinner.
Many Art Treasures.
Just of the charmingly appointed
Legation drawing room with its skill
fully grouped furniture is the Swiss
room. Its furniture, its hangings, its
pictures OF the snow-covered Alps and
its recollections of glass, pewter and
porcelain are all treasures from the
Minister and Nine. Peters homeland.
Many are worthy of being museum
pieces. In fact, in the Geneva
Museum are similar ones, the gift of
Nine. Peters father. Their distinc-
tiveness suggests the characteristics
of the sturdy little nation, that has
given the Red Cross to humanity
and successfully maintained its own
neutrality against a warning world.
From the Swiss room, as from the
very brass on the legations front
door knobs, there emanates, too, that
shining cleanliness which is associated
with this nation of dazzling mountain
peaks and brilliant sunshine. As
