Players Give Story Of Poe 1 The text of "Edgar Allan Poe," first 1 production for the year of the Palmetto 1 Players, was received last week by Wil- < liam Dean, director of the organization, i and a cast is now in the process of selection. Rehearsals will begin next week c and the play will probably be produced f late in November. f Much speculation is going about as to J the one who will play the title role and c Mr. Dean is keeping his selection shroud- p cd in secrecy. He states that he will h probably be undecided for some time 1 yet, though he has several prospects in o mind. \ g The work on the production will be greatly facilitated by the fact that for p the first time the Players will have ac- p cess to Drayton Hall in the new Educa- I tion building. In the past the produc- ti tions of the group have been given in the p chapel where the facilities have been ex- a tremely limited but the new hall will be tl much more suitable for the work of the ij group.

All the characters with a .j, ew minor exceptions are drawn from l ife and Poe's dependence upon the wornn that entered his life is made a focal j){ oint. The play is wierd and sad in places ;u iut at others it is full of humor. Mr. )ean says that the scene of Poe's dream if l.igea is one of the most powerful and J [ripping that he has ever come across. Plans arc now being made to take the traduction on an extensive tour and it is ossible that it may go as far north as Richmond or Philadelphia. It may also . ;>ur in Georgia and Florida. Such a traduction will probably arouse a great ^ mount of interest throughout the South, lie home of Poe during much of his ' ife, and particularly in such cities as Richmond, Charleston, and Baltimore, ^ dtich knew the great genius personally. se v. m. o.

Since William L. Laval came to the University in 1928 as head coach, Carolina has been playing the hardest schedules in its history, and although teams of former years have made better records than Laval-coached elevens, in no instances have they faced schedules as difficult as those of recent years.
