Next Players' Club Offering Is War Satire Dick Anderson Has Leading Role In Play "Johnny Johnson" "Johnny Johnson," brilliant war satire by the University of North Carolina's Paul Green, will be the next play to be produced by the University Players, according to an announcement made Wednesday by Director M. G. Christophersen. The play should be of particular interest to Carolinians, because it is written by a native of the region and is about ordinary, everyday people in the Carolinas. The author is Professor of History at the Uni versity of N. C., and has done much for literature throughout the south. He has also written "Green Pas tures" and many other stories and plays about $outherners. Casting of the play was begun last week, but has not yet been completed. There are still parts available to those interested. Pro fessor Christophersen said. Candi dates are asked to see him for ap pointments for tryouts. Dick Anderson has been selected for the title role. "Johnny" is a country lad who, at the time of the first world war, doesn't see exactly why he should go and fight the Germans. Then he is convinced that his country is fighting for a glorious cause, and goes overseas only to find things quite different from what he has been led to be lieve. Finally the play is brought up to date, and the aftermath of the War is shown; twenty years later, the country is on the verge of another war, for the same glorious cause. So the play is particularly appro priate, and distinctly modern in its subject matter. Carolina Players Plan Constitution Two New Resolutions Appear In Regulations The University Players, the Car olina dramatic club, is preparing a new constitution, according to Hen nig Cohen, president. This action will make the club officially recog nized on the campus. Two resolutions recently recorded in the minutes, which will appear in the new constitution are: That the business manager be the only one allowed to receive checks for advertising and receipt bills for advertising. That members must attend two thirds of the club meetings to keep their names on the roll. Dues for second semester must be paid by March 22, and if not paid by that date the members on the roll first semester will be dropped. To have their names put back on the roll, they must pay their dues of 50c plus the initiation fee, 50c. Meetings will be held regularly every two weeks. There are 160 college cooperatives doing an annual business of $2,700, 000. :Jewelry :-: Silverware HED 1883 I'TE & CO., Inc. a.ERS N'JELRY REPA IRS - Columbia, . C.
