This play writ ten by Richard Sheridan, is closely linked with the great actor Joseph Jefferson. Concerning the cast many good things can be said. Miss Jean Mc- Namey, who starred last year in Oliver Goldsmith's "She Stoops to Conquer,” will assume the role of the leading lady, “Mrs. Malaprop", Mr. A, W. Tuholski will play the part of “Bob Acres.” Miss Helen White, Miss Mary K. Jackson, and Miss Florence Powdermaker will impersonate “Lydia Languish”, “Julia Melville”, and “Lucy”, re spectively.

Tonight (Wednesday evening) at 7 o’clock in the Armory, the sopho more and freshman classes meet in their first athletic contest, the annual Interclass Wrestling Match. The freshmen, under the tutelage of upperclassmen have been making rapid strides and will present a strong team to contest for the hon ors of being winners, while the sophomores, because of their greater experience feel confident of victory. Nevertheless the fact that they have been working hard shows that they respect their opponents and that they are going to be prepared to meet all exigencies. Without a doubt the meet will be an interest ing one, since the freshmen wish to retain the prestige gained by win ning the Cider Scrap, and the sophomores seek to avenge that de feat with an overwhelming victory. The first match will start at seven o’clock. An admission of ten cents (10 c) will be charged and a section of seats will be reserved for ladies and members of the faculty. Managers Hill, 1915, and Herr, 1916, give out the following line up. 1915 1916 Burns or Miller 115 Baird or Williams Kirk 125 Bennett or Rock Frantz or Smith 135 Rayburn or Lewis Hill 145 Breneiser or Goetz Gleason 158 Chambers or Martin Stoner Steeker or Hanson 175 Clark or Kaylor Heavy Mayer or Miller.

Professor Espensbade, the Regis trar of the College, has furnished us with the following facts about the Freshman Class that entered col lege in September, 1912: The 657 Freshmen were prepared for college in 343 different schools, 271 public high schools and 72 private preparatory schools. Eighty Freshmen attended two or more different schools, most of them be ginning their preparation in a public high school and completing it in a private preparatory school. Five hundred and eighteen Freshmen were wholly prepared in public high schools; 85 were wholly prepared in private preparatory schools and 53 were partly prepared in public high schools and partly in private schools. Of the 343 different schools that have prepared students for the Freshmen Class, 277 are located in Pennsylvania, and 66 are situated outside the State. Two hundred and eighteen schools have but a single representative. Four of the leading schools are as follows: Northeast Manual Training H. S. of Philadelphia 18; Harrisburg Cen tral H. S- 16; State College H. S. 14; York H. S. 14. The Pilgrim Girls, Those who attended last Satur day’s evening performance certainly witnessed a very satisfying enter tainment. The Pilgrim Girls who were garbed in the costumes of their namesakes combined to form a most efficient musical company, which evidenced excellent talent in the young ladies, and the appli cation of concentrated training. The program was made up of classical selections played by the entire orchestra, and of individual readings and solos by the various members. Miss Chesney, the read er, received much commendation. Everything she undertook she did .well, and she had the special ad vantage of an exceedingly agree able, strong, and well managed voice.

How “Collegian” readers like the aristocratic vocation of cutting coupons. Who the men will be that will draw unto themselves the most coupons. Why the evening campus yodelers do not affiliate with the glee club. Why people write play advertise ments and the like on the vertical steps around college, instead of con fining them to the bulletin boards. How the army is progressing in preparation for Pennsylvania Day. Who gives vent to those wierd yells on the campus in the evening hours. kjTe-l (?offggjg Harry W.
