In 1908, Professor Frizzell brought a change in the char acter of shows produced. “King Popo Caterpillar,” a musical comedy, was presented,under the direction of Leon Downing, of the University of Penn sylvania’s Mask and Wig club. During the war period, women were first introduced into Thespian casts. Prof. David D. Mason appeared on the Thespian scene at this point as a director, as did Dr. William S. Dye jr. Because many members of the group enlisted in the service, the show “The Naked Truth,” rewritten from Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Palace of Youth,” was made a vehicle for the combined Thespians and Women’s Glee club in the year 1917. . Entering the 1918-1919 season fin ancially handicapped, the club produc ed “It Pays to Advertise,” under the direction of Dr. Dye and Mary Dun ham, who was connected with the pub lic speaking division at the time. This show included women in its cast, among whom was Mai'garet Fishburn, sister of Prof. Hummel Fishburn, of the music department. Returning to their former custom of excluding women from the cast, Thespians stag ed “The Magistrate,” selected by Professor Frizzell, and directed, by Dr. Dye. "Stop Thief,” and “A Pair of Sixes” were shows of 1919-1920, the former including women, and the sec ond excluding them. “King Pom pompous I,” was the performance in the 1920-1921 season, while George Ade’s “The Fair Co-ed,” “His Little Widows,” and “The Magazine Cover Girl,” were produced from 1921 to 1924. The last of these was the first to be written by a Penn State student, being the work of the late Robert Voskamp ’25. "Wooden Shoes,” staged in the 1924-1925. season, contained ‘songs penned by Professor Fishburn, - who also wrote lyrics for the following year’s production "The Kid Himself,” by Voskamp and Joe Etter ’25. “Girl Wanted,” “Honestly Yours,” were produced between 1926 and 1928, while the Thespians and the Women’s Glee club combined to produce “H. M. S. Pinafore” in 1928-29. “Dutchess in Dutch,” “Scrapbook of 1931,” "Reely and Truly,” and “We The People” conclude past performances formances of the Thespians to date.

He cited the statute books to show that the 1859 act had been superceded by laws of 1887, 1921, and 1923. v The act of 1921 was repealed“ab solutely by the Snyder act of March 27, 1923 which is now in full force and; effect in Pennsylvania. It prohibits the sale of only such beverages as Congress may find to be intoxicat ing, and since 3.2 percent beer has, been defined as non-intoxicating, the ; Snyder act would not restrict its sale here, in Professor Tanner’s opinion. Bills pending before the legislature this, week include measures to allow; sale of the beverage in grocery, de partment, and chain stores, as well as'in restaurants, hotels, and' all places where soft drinks are now sold. Consumption on the premises in the former type of establishments, how ever, would not be permitted. LUTZ GETS YALE POSITION Prof. Harold J.
