As it is our wish to make :this 'Club a ,eoll.ege organization in the broadest ·s ense, we earnestly desire the sfmpathetic understanding and support of the Alumnae as well as that of the undergraduates. A word of explanation, therefore, 'a s to the work and the aim ()if the dub will pel'ha.ps be of intere's t to you. The 'c riticism of amateur drama'ti'cs, whether ·collegiateor no:t, havetalways been ,vhat they offer their au-diences at 'b est, only an ·inferi'Or presentation of plays which 'have already been ably 'Produced by 'Professio na·ls. Recognizing the justi,ce of ~his 'criti'Cism, Princeto n and vVilliams have a-lready met it by the presentation of plays which could not be seen on the 'pro.fession·al 'Stage, 'p lays which were written ·f or the stage and ha.ve been ,for so long a time relegated to the closet. This revival of E.J.izabet'han non-Shakes'pearean drama was begun .at Prin,ceton with the production of Dr. Faustus under the 'a,b le management of Mr. George L. Sargent, a Prin'c eton ·g raduate. It was so enthusiasti'c ally received ,t'here, both by alumni and stndents, that it was reproduced at Williams, where it agairr aroused the greates t enH1ll'siasm . Tlle experiment was, indeed, so suocessful, that this sp ring Mr. Sargent will produce \"The Knight of ,the Durning PeS'tle\" at Princeton and \"The J ew of Malta,\" at Willi ams. It has seemed wise t'O 'the coull'cil of our Club, 'to join in this mo veme nt and to prese nt ea·ch year, at ·l east one of these older plays whi·ch have b eer so ,l ong neglected on the modern 'P!'ofessio nal stage. Mr. Sargent has generously offered his invaluable assistance fo r our initial ' 'p erforman,ce, and we hope to thow that the Normal College presentatiiQn of Dr. Faustus is bchind t'hose already given, in point of ti·me only. We are also h oping that o ur effo!'t to do s-omet'hing worth while for t'he college al-ong dramatic lines, will mcet wit'h as keen appreciati'On and as liQya l sUp'port from our A.lumnae as similar eff-o!'ts have, elsewhere.

Reid , o'n eithe r M-onday or Wednesday afternoons 'b etween 4 and 5.30 at ,the entrance to t·h e college library. The tickets will 'b e\n\nso I,d this year at 50 cents 'a piece and there will be no resel'ved seats. The proceeds will be divided between the Dramati'C Club and the tScholarship Fl111d.

A notable innovation, in the form of an A lumn ae secti-o.n, will be introduced. There ·w ill 'b e ,a new faculty group-picture, besides new pidtures of the separate members of the ,f aculty. Other attra.ctive changes are being prophesied whi'c h will make The Wistarion a most desirable possession. The editors .feel justified in expecting 'a large ·sale among the A,lumnae. The 'oos't is very lo w 'c onsidering ,the quality - $1.25. Subscription blanks may be had from the editors at the C'Ollege. Send f-or them at once and so be sure ,for a 'c opy before the edition is sold out.\n\nEXECUTIVE COMMITTEE NOTES.\nA regular meeting of the Executive Committee was held on M'a rch 8th, in the Music Room.
