Students in Charge Do Con
structivc Work; Hoop
Skirts and Bustles
Will Feature.
Original Stage Settings Used;
Play Is Full of Human
Interest Element.
[ Hoop-skirts and bustles will feature in
the production of “Dombey and Hon”
at Guild ball Thursday and Friday
nights. The picturesque styles that pre
vailed in Dickens’ time have been care
fully studied by Evelyn Smith and her
assistants, in charge of the costuming,
arid will be accurately reproduced in the
play. Those were the days when men’s
trousers were even tighter than fash
ion at present, dictates. Also, that was
before a certain famous actor set the
fashion of pressing trousers with a
crease. Professor Rcddie, the director
of the play, says the students are not
merely going over costumes used in
other productions, but a.ro doing some
genuinely constructive work in the cos
i turning line.
"Dombey and Son” will require four
sets of scenery, which arc being mud*
especially for this piece. In the sev
eral plays that have been produced by
the classes in drama tie interpretation
this year, no setting has been rpeated.
Each play has had its settings made
especially for it, and used but for that
play.
The dramatization of Dickens’ novel,
which is being used, is the old profes
sional one, with slight alterations here
and there by Mr. lteddie. This is prob
ably the biggest production of the year,
and bus an all-slar cast. Rosamund
Shaw, w'ho has appeared in a number
of campus plays with great success, does
<the eccentric characteriznition in 1ho role
of Mrs. Skowton. Nor veil Thompson, as
Toots, has tho comedy. Helen Ander
son, in a red wig and redder nose, will
appear as Mrs. MaeStingle. Playing op
posite her will lie Morris Boeock, as
Jack Runshy. The heavy parts will be
carried by Ethel Newhind, in the role
of Edith Granger, and Boh Cosgriff,
playing Paul Dombey, Senior.
The play is full of tho “human inter
est” element, and Dorothy Robertson,
manager of Guild hall, expects good
crowds. The ticket sale opened today.

The committee that was appointed to
either draft a new constitution or to
revise the old one, found that the old
one was obsolete in many respects and
any revision would only make a patch
work of it. A new constitution was
drafted, which contains many of the
points in the one previously used, but
yet is practically a new constitution.
It has nine articles and six by-laws. The
authors were Walter Myers and Ken
neth Toancefield.
There are two copies of the new con
stitution on the library bulletin boards
and one in the Y. M. C. A. office. It
