STUDENT PEP RALLY 7:20 TONIGHT MEMORIAL HALL 1 i t STUDENT PEP RALLY 7:20 TONIGHT MEMORLAL HALL il c : Yj j - l VOLUME XLH HALU i7F7B? fro BOUPE PRESET id IdSISIvS ' GHOSTS' TONIGHT Maricn Tatcni and Bob Proctor Of Last Year's Playinakers Appear in Cast of Play. The company of Madame Hammer, which includes Marion Tatum and Bob Proctor, of last year's Playmakers, will present Henrik Ibsen's "Ghosts' as the first feature on the student en tertainment calendar at 8 :30 o'clock tonight in Memorial hall. "Ghosts" was written by Ib sen as a defense against the crit icisms which an earlier work, "The Doll's House," called forth from the Victorians. These complaints were caused by the fact that in this play the wife leaves her husband, an act which was to the Victorians, inexcus able. In "Ghosts," Ibsen presents a case in which, because a woman does not abandon a dissolute husband, the consequences of the father's failings are inher ited by their son, who is born later. This was a theme un known and, consequently, abhor able to the people of the smug nineties, and heralded the en trance of the twentieth century with its ideas of social reform. "Ghosts" is considered as one of the best of the works of the Norwegian playwright, because in it, with a rare skill, Ibsen combines a knowledge of dra matic technique "with a" broad knowledge of human problems.

A field of at least 40 teams in the Stetson "D" contract bridge tournament is indicated by the early entrants. Practically every fraternity has signified its in tention of entering a team, and the dormitories are expected to be almost as well represented. Many fraternities are already entered ; others have promised to enter their teams before Sunday. Quite a few have delayed in en tering their team because so many desired to represent the fraternity that elimination tournaments were necessary to decide the entrants. Only teams representing fra ternities or dormitories are per mitted to enter this tournament. But so many independant teams have asked to be permitted to play that a second tournament will be run off later. This will be an open tournament, in which any townspeople, professors, or students will be allowed to play. This will be an accredited tour nament of the national bridge association, and the winners will be permitted to enter the state tournament which will be held this fall. The state winners, however, must win the regional tourney before they can compete in the national tournament, which will be held in New York at the Waldorf. The expenses of all players in the national will be payed.
