This year the Speech Arts Club presented Digging Up the Dirt, a three act comedy, to an audience of eight hundred. Financially, as well as dramatic- ally, the play was a great success. The club tunlike most of usb has not felt the seriousness of Old Man Depression. The play was about the misadvantures of two young fellows, who, after having an unfortunate encounter with a mephitis mesamela fcommonly called a skunkj, are forced to meet all comers in nothing more or less than their underwear and blankets. Many amusing complications arise when a party of young girls enter and the boys are forced to masquerade as Indians. In the end, of course, all difhculties are ironed out, and everyone Ulives happily ever after. The setting is in a ranch house in Arizona, which provides very picturesque scenery.
