ECHO Ml TO STIR
Clever Campus Actress Will Be
Lucy in “Dictator.”
Hest of Cast Is Up to Usual
High Standard.
Whenever a college dramatic event of
importance is announced, the first thing
j several hundred students do is to look
I over the cast and 'ind out what part
Echo Zahl is to play. In “The Dicta
tor, the sparkling comedy from the pen
of Richard Harding Davis, which the
University I’layers will stage at the Eu
gene theatre Friday evening, Feb. 10,
this clever young w man is cast for a
most striking and original feminine role.
She plays the part of I.uey Sheridan, a
demure and unsophioticated little mis
sionary girl who goes to the wicked Cen
tral American republic of San Manana to
convert the heathen.
On her way to the tropics, on board the
good ship Iiolivar (where the first act
takes place) she falls in with a question
able crowd of Americans; she also falls
in love with the most qeustionable of the
lot. Iirooke Travers, alias “Steve” Hill
(James Mott) a young ne’er-do-well who
is “beating it" out of the country just
ahead of the New' "Jerk police. There is
nothing particularly wrong about her
falling for Travers, because after three
acts of uncertainty he turns out to be a
pretty decent sort of chap. The Double
is, that little Lucy is already engaged to
the Rev. Arthur Rustic (Perry Law
rence), who is waiting at the wharf to
marry her at the mo-lent the ship lands,
and that the board of missions in New
York has placed her in charge of Col.
Rowie, the United States Consul (Cleve
Simpkins). The instructions to deliver
her safely into the arms of Bostic.
When Lucy lands at I’orto Banos, the
capital of this comic opera republic, her
troubles begin in earnest.
Runs Into Revolution
One of the regular semi-monthly rev
olutions is in progless, and Lucy runs
right into it. She is arrested by the vil
lunous President Campos (Ernest Wat
kins), haunted by the terrible govern
ment sleuth, Duffy, (A1 llolman), har
assed by the Consul’s wife, (Ade Epping,
land threatened with sudden death by
Jaunita, the widow from Panama. (Ruth
Montgomery). Melodramatic as this sit
uation sounds, it is the nucleus of :.i ■
most hilarious comedy plot in the whole
range contemporary drama.
None of the present generation of stu
dents nerd to be told that Echo Zalil
can act. Her portrayal of “Evelyn” in
james W. Mott, Director of “The
Dictator”
"I'rown of Harvard” two years ago es
tablished her rejuitatioii as an actress,
and her splendid pe • 'ormanee of “Hetty"
in "The Fortune Hunter” last spring
clinched that reputation In "The 1 de
lator," coached by th 1 same director who
staged these two plays. Miss Zttlil will
add another success to her already bril
liant record.
"The dictator" will be staged with new
scenery, built and painted especially for
it. The big ship scene, the wireless
station with the apparatus actually at
work, and all the other features win -h
go to make up the scenic part of the
play, have been handled with the most
minute attention to detail. The seat sale
for “The 1 delator will open at the
laiRvne theatre. Thu sday. l'eb. 15. The
prices will be To, 50 and -o cents.

Faculty Makes Rulings on Sub
ject of Honors.
To Publish Candidates’ Names
in Catalogue.
Students who are candidates for honors '
rna.v from now on enjoy the distinction |
while in college. The faculty just passed
a ruling, that ail jun.or and senior candi
dates for honors should have their names .
published as such at the head of the list |
in the University catalog. There will be j
two classes, those seeking special honors \
in particular subjects and those seeking
general scholarship honors. The ratings
of “summa cum laude”, “magna cum
laude” and “cum laude” will be aband
oned.
Rosalind Rates, a senior, successfully
passed at the end of last semester the
oral examination for special honors in
English Literature. Mrs. Bates has n t
yet taken her examination for general !
scholarship honors. To qualify for this
examination each hour below “S” grade
must be made up by three hours “H”.
In speaking of the change, Professor
II. C. Howe, chairman of the honor com- i
mittee said, “The old system was like a
flattering obituary. The student on de
parture was handed his honors along wi^h
his suitcase. Now I think that there
will be more of an incentive for students
to work for honors.”
There are now about 20 or 25 hono'r
students will, in time, according to Pro
Howe thinks that it should be possible
in a University of 1100 to have 100 out
for honors. The organized body of honor
students will, in time according to Pro
fessor Howe, probably be changed into a
local chapter of Phi Beta Kappa as the
requirements are the same.
Candidates for special honors in lit
erature in June are Martha Beer, Eyla
Walker, and Frances Shoemaker: in
commerce Frank Beach, Ernest Watkins,
Martin Nelson and Bernard Breeding.
