Show Played Before a Full House—New and Entertaining Feature Presented. An exceptionally large audience witnessed the presentation of The College Boy's Wedding in the Au ditorium on the night of Washing ton’s Birthday. This performance, by some of the best actors of the faculty and the student body, was well received by the spectators who vigorously applauded them at fre quent intervals throughout the four acts. It cannot be said that this show scored as big a hit as did The College Widow —the Y. M. C. A. show of last year. The play in itself did not appeal as strongly to a college audience as did the Col lege Widow, but Mr. G. Stuart Brodock had his characters as well coached and put the whole pro duction to such a perfectly finished form that, a truly, highly entertain ing show was the result. Several new features among which were a song, a dance, and two unruly calves were introduced, and they contributed largely to the brilliancy of the show. In the first act, “The Sweet Co-ed” sung by Miss Kough and company won much applause from the audience. The figure dance in the fourth act "was One’S! tEeTmost brilliant scenes ever presented at an amateur play. A white and a black calf aided in an excellent manner to introduce “Fanner Hedges” and “Zeke" in the first act. The black calf proved to be the “black sheep” of the com pany by being very unruly. Never theless the calves provided much amusement for the audience. Every character was well por trayed and each member of the company contributed a large part toward making the show a success. Professor Crockett as “Prof. Pitcher” did not disappoint his audience in the least for he pleased them with his astounding elucida tions throughout the show and in his famous “between-the-acts” speech. “Uncle Hedges," a Vermont farmer' could not have been better represented than ' by Prof. Crandell who mastered his part in such a skilled .manner that he received much applause at all time. “Mrs. Josiah Hedges” was well enacted by Mrs. Frank Gardner. The two servants “Zeke” and “Sally Ann’ Pickle” were portrayed in a fault less style by Mr. Ashbrook and Miss Lawsing, The latter had an exceptionally difficult role in repre senting first a country hired “gal” and then a French maid. Miss Vivian Snyder as “Ruth,” the daughter of "Josiah Hedges,” displayed cellent performing abil ity both as a charming country maiden and as a stunning society favorite. F. M. Sellkregg arid Gordon Her on, as “Ned” and "Ted," provtd to be two lively college youths who happen to fall in love with the same girl. “Miss Parkman” represented Miss Davis. Oliver Vogel as “The College Boy” filled a big part in the cast. “Mrs. John Rallston” was en acted in a very able manner by Miss Margery Lyon.

The entire show was much enjoyed by all who attended. •Sophomores and Seniors-are Victors- Quite a number of students wit. nessed the two games of interclass basketball on the Armory floor Fri day night. Both contests were typical of this year’s interclass games —close and exciting. The one between the juniors and the seniors was especially sensational and thrilling. In the first game, between the fresman and sophomores, the form er showed their best form of the season and for a time threatened to hand out a severe trouncing to 1914. However just as soon as the sophs found themselves, they took a lead of several points and held them to the end of the game. Although the 1914 mem kept a safe margin all through the entire two periods, the freshmen were not loafing and had they been bet ter able to cage the ball upon numerous attempts, the score would, probably, have been favor ing them. Their playing otherwise was very good and in some respects excelled that of the sophomores. The seniors and juniors engaged in a very rough battle which re quired an extra five minute period to decide to whom the victory be longed. Binder figured largely in the scoring for the seniors by cag ing five field goals while Maybee worked almost as hard for the jun iors by scoring 19 of the 27 points made by his team. At the beginning of the second half with the score 16 to 7 in favor of the seniors, the 1913 five began to play a fast game and soon showed excel'ent all-around team work. After the score had been tied in this period, the result of the game was always in doubt and the team alternated in leading by not more than one or two points. The seniors tied the score in the last minute of play and in the extra period which followed, won the game by the score- of 28 to 27 •PENN STATE| [COLLEGIAN JAMES I.
