“Thi' regiment is Inn'! Wo rm
saved! ” wore tlio words spoken b\
llio young lieutenant which enppoil
tin' climax i'l I tin first piny of Hi'1
contosl licl.l Inst night at (Inilil
]mll. Il was i-MIli'il ‘'Tlir Drums of
Oudo,” by Austin Brong, mill was
presented by tlio Corvallis high
School. Before tliis very dramatic
Climax, llu' nndionee was kept in a
continual statu of suspense. Cap
tain McGregor, played bv Darwin
Woodcock was left in charge of an
Indian settlement.. Ilis regime,ny
was away anil during their absenee
the natives started an uprising. The
dramatic, and mysterious effect was
brought out. by a constant nerve
racking thumping through almost
the entire play which represented
the. sound from 'some supposedly
Indian festival.
The Henley high school from
I’ondleton played “Joint Owners in
Spain,” by Alice Drown. This was
a very clever one-act comedy, about
two little old ladies at, the old
people’s home who had each worn
out any ' unfortunate roommates
they had ever had. They were fin
ally put in the same loom and left
to “fight it, out.” They finally
Separated their two parts of the
room with a chalk line. Both old
ladies drew many laughs from the
audience. Mrs. Mitchell, head of
the home, played well as dil the
third old lady, although her part
was short.
“The Machine Age,” by Kstella
Kelly was the third plYiy in last
night’s contest. It was put on by
the Koseburg high school,. Than
was also a one-act, comedy. II was
realistically put on and showed the
comical reactions of about '1111- gen
erations ago to new mechanical in
volitions. It was the story of a
typical country family, the mother
and father, two children and the
grandma, who was so deadly sure
that a steam engine or a sewing
machine or even a stove were "the
works of the devil.”
Before the opening of the first
play last night, Mrs. Seybolt, who
is head at' the drama department,
here, welcomed the delegates and in
a few words expressed her appre
ciation of the enthusiasm shown.
Tonight at the same time, the
following plays will be given: "The
Valiant,” Milwaukie high school;
“Dust of the Road,” Marshfield
high school; "The Boor,” Newberg
high school; and "The Hides!,” Bt.
Helens high school.
The tournament is under the aus
pices of the drama division, with
the cooperation of the J'xtension
division. .Mrs, Ottilie Turnbull
Bey bolt', head of the ujuit ersit.v
