Players Held Up For Time Rehearsals of "Edgar Allan Poe," first production for the year of the Palmetto Players, have been held up for a short time while work is being done on scenery and lighting effects. For the first time the Players will be in Drayton Hall in the new education building and all new scenery must be constructed. A new lighting system is to be installed in a few days which will be modern in every detail. Several scenes in the coming production will depend largely on proper lighting effects and every effort is being made to make the technical details as perfect as possible. Much of the scenery will have to be constructed so that it will be suitable to take on tour, as it is planned to take the production on an extensive trip into neighboring states. Casting of the play is steadily progressing and Mr. Dean, director of the Players, hopes to make the complete cast public at an early date. The title role is causing him much trouble, however, and it is likely that the man who will play this part will not be definitely decided upon for some time. ternities, he stated that he did not know what arrangements would be made for the Carolina students attending the game in Greenville next Saturday.

"The greatest nedd is for immediate, united action," Dean Frierson pointed out. "The Association is in much the same fix that the Allies were in immediately prior to the entrance of America into the World War. Their backs to the wall, they were fighting doggedly but without much hope of long withstanding the furious onslaughts of the enemy. But the darkest hour is just before dawn. The entrance of new blood and the united, determined effort under the common commander, General Foch, changed the darkness into light and brought speedy victory." Citing the tremendous handicap that the Tuberculosis Association is laboring under because of the loss of last year's surplus In the bank crashes, Dean Frierson declared that light was in sight, and that only a determined, united effort is needed to put the present campaign across with glorious accomplishment. "We must wage a joyous battle," he concluded. "It is only through unselfish, joyous service that we can be an inspiration for other public welfare organizations, and do our part to bring joy, health, longer life, and improved living conditions to the masses."
