TO BE PRESENTED BY
ED DRAMATIC CLUB
Collegians Will Offer Shaw's
Play in Men's Social Room
.Wednesday.
Wednesday la the date which hae
en et by the members of th Cothur-
klan Dramatic club of Reed, college tor
the presentation of Bernard Bhw
The Man of Destiny .". The play ! to
be given In the mene social room.
The caat has been uafler the person-
al direction of MUa Josephine Ham
mond, chairman At the faculty commit
tee on dramafes. Mlaa Hammond la
an experienced dramatic ' coach, and la
hereelf ytrie author of the morality,
"Every' Woman' a Road."
Tfte cart of the "Lady- will be taken
by Lola Wllliama; Wynn Redman la to
play 'auleeppe"; Edgar Piper la to fill
the cart of "Lieutenant," and Arthur
Cavlor will be "Napoleon."
The men'a aoclal room, where the
play Is to be given, offera exceptional
facilities for an Impromptu theatre.
A staircase, together with the high
walnscoated walls, provide a back
ground for the staging that is archi
tecturally true to the period. On ao
. count of the size of the room, the
number of tickets Issued has been lim
ited to 126.
Some time In March the two Lady
Gregory playlets, "Spreading the
News" and "The Traveling Man," will
be repeated When the sketches were
Ktven last December, they poved so
popular that Insistent demand on .the
part of those who were unable to see
them at that time has led to their re
petition. Because of Its elaborate nature, Miss
Hammond's play, "Everywoman'a
Road," will not be attempted this
spring. The club is planning, however,
to begin work on this production as
soon as Instruction begins next fall.
The morality will probably be given I
just before the Christmas holidays.
There are about 200 persons In the full
cast of the play.
A committee Is now at the, work of
fleeting a play suitable to be given
this spring. On account of the very
lengthy schedule of student activities
which has already been arranged, it is
probable that nothing very heavy will
be attempted. t

Psychological Testa Planned. j
Psychological tests are to be given to l
all the sophomores. The tests will be
of much the same nature as those giv
en the present Junior class last year,
and will be given for the same pur

mental ability as it is shown In the
grades for classroom work and as It la
shown in psychological tests.
The class in experimental psychology
' will be put in charge of the tests which
will be made about the middle of the
semester. The tests will form a part
of their regular class work.
Later in the year the class may be
given an opportunity to test defectives.
It is the plan of the department to fol
low the Reed policy of cooperation with
the city in this way.

heme of Mrs. H. B. Torrey on Wednes
day. :
Mr. A. E. Wood, instructor In social
ethics, spoke before the Reed college
branch of the Consumers' league on
Wednesday afternoon. He discussd

ability to reckon the economic value
of their labor. Ha suggested means Jn
which this could be brought about. - I
