THE THESPIANS
A Big Performance Assured by our
Dramatic Organization.
The first performance of “Popo
caterpillar VII” will be given to-
morrow night by the Thespians in
the Auditorium. The .play is a
musical comedy and promises to be
the best thing ever put on by the
dramatic organization. No expense
has been spared to make it a suc
cess. Mr. Downing, the coach,
has been working with the cast and
chorus for over a month, and the
performance Friday night will show
the results of careful training. The
finest kind of costumes have been
secured. The chorus girls will ap
pear in different dresses in each act.
and the many beautiful gowns of
the Queen and Princess will fairly
dazzle the audience. Scenery from
Bellefonte will be used for one act.
The lines of the play are full of
jokes from beginning to end and the
funny situations that King Popo
caterpillar and his court get into will
keep things merry the whole even
ing. The monotony of the fun is
relieved by solos by Mr. Arm
strong and other members of the
cast and by the singing and dancing
of the chorus. The chorus danc
ing will be one of the finest features
01 the play. The music will be by
an orchestra of eleven men picked
from the college orchestra.
On Tuesday morning the troupe,
consisting of thirty-nine men, will
leave for Bloomsburg, where the
play will be given that night. After
the performance they will all attend
a dance. On Wednesday night
they show in the Lycoming Opera
