Henry's, Wife Visiits Campus-Tells of Life (Continued from page 1) ing clay pigeons and playing cards. He would not play cards unless there was a little money put up. He did not mind losing, however. "The story is told of how Al Jen nings and he were in Central America at a dance, when ane of the senoritas dropped her shawl. Porter defied custom and handed it to the lady in stead of to her escort. "The young man drew a knife, and Jennings, seeing that it was one or the other's life shot him. As the senor was quite prominent, they had to flee immediately in a boat. "I do not know whether the story is true or not. It was published after Porter's death, and he could not deny it. However, it is a good story and it sounds like the way he would have acted. "I met Al Jennings myself once, Mr. Porter came up to me ar, said, 'There's a man downstairs I used to know, I want you to meet.' When I assented he said, probably not wishing to take unfair advantage of me, 'He used to be a train robber.' "I did not mind meeting a train rob ber. "He was 'rather insignificant, red haired little man. One would hardly think of him as a train robber." - U.S.c. - KISMETS ELECT HEAD FOR SECOND SESSION At the first meeting of this semes ter, the Kismet club elected the follow ing officers for the coming term: president, P.

The most interesting thing about the play is that Mr. Reed himself, director of the Columbia Stage Society and professor in the University, is taking the leading role; that of a tempera mental musician. Mrs. Lamarr Ed munds is playing the part of the music maker's wife and two University co eds are represented as his pupils, Miss Sara Meredith and Miss Helen Hilb. The stage setting is one of the most carefully planned and constructed that has been seen in Columbia recently. A feature in the musician's studio is a very large portrait of him which was painted from the real character in mike-up by Miss Catherine Phillips, a student in the University Art Depart mont. Interesting to University people is the fact that this play has been pre sented before other college people in the upper part of the state and was en thusiastically received. It was pre sented last Friday night at the Green ville Woman's College in Greenville under the auspices of the Greenville branch of the American Association of University Women. Students of Furman and Greenville Woman's Col lege who attended expressed themsel ves as having enjoyed the performance very much and urged the players to return again. "The Concert" is being played on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights of this week at the Town Theatre, with a matinee on Saturday. - u.s.c. - R. D.
