The annual Dramatic Club play will be presented this year on the night of April 30. Are you going? Say , don 't miss it! It's going to be a "wow." It was written by Ferenc Molnar , author of Liliom , which me t with great success on Broadway last year. "Th e Swan " is one of Molnar's best plays, pure comedy, partly of manners and partly of romance. An excellent plot, clever dialogu e, a variety of clearly individualize d characters, combine to make it one of the most entertaining of recent plays. It depicts a chapter in the life of two royal families, which includes an importan t incident in the life of Princess Alexandria , as she makes her final decision between the tutor who ordently loves her and whom for a moment she thinks she loves and the prince who offers her a throne. Her wise uncle helps her to make a choice —and "romance " goes big. . The play is extremely entertaining from beginning to end. It contains delic ate sat ire and is, especially, a characterization of a lonely young woman , who knows enough to "play safe " and remain within the limitations that nature has set for her. The chief characters are : Princess Beatrice—Gertrude Baucher. Symphonos a, her sister—Doroth y Raupt. Hyaci nt h , her brother—Archie Austin. Alexandra , her daughter—Kathleen Sommers. George and Arsen, sons of the princess—Ned Raker and Haven Fortner. Dr. Hans Agi—Blake Stokos. Prince Albert—Leo Moore, Princess Marie Cominica—Mildre d Rehm. Colonel Wundenlich—Bill Swinehart. The cast is an exceptionally good one and under the capable direction of Miss Johnston we feel it will be the biggest ever. Everybody 's coming, are you? —B. S. N. S.—• "AMERICAN FOREST WEEK " President" To Set Aaide Week of April 24 to 30. The Maroon and G old b a seball squad will open the season here tomorrow with the Mining & Mechanical Institute of Freeland as their opponents. The visiting squad has a snappy squad and have already met and defeated their only two opponents thus far this season. Although Coach Booth's boys haven 't met any teams so far, they have shown that they have the makings of a snappy baseball club. The game tomorrow will be a fast game between two evenly matched teams. Coach Booth indicated that the boys will give the fans as fast a grade of ball as they have enjoyed in other years. Merely by ' letting his memory run riot for a moment the average fan can still get a potent kick from a review of the mighty struggle the squad fought last year. In the expressive manner i t was "some team " and this year 's outfi t is still better. It will be a gloriou s baseball season tha t w ill get under way tomorrow when the game which will open the season is started by the stentorian voice of the umpire. Although the squad has not yet been defini tely picked , it is probable that it will be composed of the following: Catchers—Joe Bradshaw (Captain ), George Janell and Piggy Swinehar t; Pitchers—Evans, Ba m ford , Fritz and Roan ; First Basemen—McGrath and Austin ; Second Basemen— Coursen , Slusser and Kraynack ; Third Basemen—Wadas and Layelle ; Outfielders—Garrity, Rushin , Vital , Hidlay, Yarashefski. As Coach Booth has not yet revealed the full scope of the fruit borne by his early efforts , it is thought that seven of last year 's stars will be on the field. Joe Bradshaw, Ruthian thumper and back stop guardian , will act as field captain of the team. The least that can be said of Joe is that he knows his "stuff." Red Garrity, the fleet fly chaser, has also entered the field. McGrath and Austin, who also made themselves known last year by their all-around playing, will be clad in a Maroon and Gold outfit.

Edwans Points Out Man y Important Things About Law. MAY 13 Dr. Russell gave a lengthy examination in a course in Geography at the end of t he firs t semes ter in which the fi n al . question was "An elderly gentleman desires to tour South America. Arrange a tour for him that will t ake him to the mos t in ter est ing spots and will enable him to avoid the rainy season. " Banghart arrived at this question j ust five minutes before the examination period ended and hurriedly conducted the "elderly gentleman " down the coast as far as Rio. Then looking at his watch he discovered that the examination period had ended and instantly terminated the proposed tour with the Statement, "He can go to Hades from here ; it's eleven o 'clock." In many States banking laws have, been more favorable to banks than the Federal Reserve System has been. Hence , National Banks have been giving up their charters and withdrawing from the Federal Reserve System in order to avail themselves of greater privileges. To check such procedure and to put State and National Banks on a more nearly equal basis, the McFadden-Pepper Banking Law was passed. This will permit National banks to establish one branch in cities of between 25, 000 and 50 ,000 popula tion , two in cities between 50,000 and 100 ,000 popula tion , while in cities of more than 100,000 there may be as many branches as the Controller of Currency sees fit to authorize. —B.

Old Club Members Held Iniation For New Members. Evere tt Jameison , cap tain of Bloorasburg 's 1927 Tennis Team ia well qualified for the position. "Jamie " is a gradua te of Scranton Central High School. He had two years of Varsity experience while in that institution as he played the court gamo during his last two years. In his Senior year at Central, he was elected cap tain of the tennis team. He attained the honor of leading a team that did not suffer defeat for two seasons. This is a remarkable feat, for it shows the calibre of the team that "Jamie " captained. At the time Jameison entered Bloomsburg, tennis was a favorable sport, as the school con tained plenty of good material for a team , but lacked in organization. Last year was the first that Bloomsburg was represented with a team from .this sport since 1921. A team was organized to play Wyoming Seminary and other schools. The team was composed of Captain Bob Sutliff , Gilbert Morgans, Ben Lewis and Jameison. This team made a wonderful showing in that it went through the season undef eated. "Jami e" contributed his share to this record and did it so effectientl y that as a r esul t, he was chosen captain of this year 's team. The organiza tion of this year 's Maroon and Gold team will soon take place. Mr. Reams will take care of the coaching end of it and with "Ja mie " in the helm , together with the 'excellent material we have, Bloomsburg should have as good a team as last year s, if not better. The Mu sic Appreciation Club has continued this semester with its work. The early part of the semester has been devoted to the study of the life and works of Beethoven. At a recent meeting the old club members held an iniation for the new members in the form of an April Fool party. The first part of the program was given over to the study of Schubert. Miss Sands entertained us with several of Schubert's songs. The second part of the program consisted of an iniation and lively games. Later refr eshments were served, much t o the enj oyment of our grandmother.
