Hesper THE DOPE ON 1 HE DEGREE DIGNITARIES It is no small task to trace llie history of the class which furnishes the principal stars in that momentous event — the conferring of degrees upon the first Senior college class to be graduated from ' P. A. M. C. Too much credit cannot be accorded Professor Percy Q. Pumpervilt, who spent many weeks in research work relative to this. Acknowledgement is also due Miss Vere de Vere V ' anderfelt. Miss Delilah Dinglehopper and the right Honorable Chauncer C. Chewthe Chalk. In the following paragraphs we present the four most authoritative pieces of data. From Ye Goodwelle Cronycle, 1924: lliere dwells in ye hamlet of (loodwelle a Freshman Classe of one and thirty of so eomelye per- sonages that yt ys verily past belief. Yt hath for Presydente one Dewey Wallace (Other autlioritles explain that Lois McGinnis was president second semester). Othere off.vcers are Gertrude Gricier. and Sponsor Mr. Lemon.

C. production directed by Dean Lemon, is eagerly awaited by the theatre-going public. Stars are Bus Gieck, who has the role of President, and May King and Carrie Powell, who play opposite him in the role of May Queen and Secretary of the class. The cast is evenly divided— three applying for A. B. degrees and three for B. S.— three married and three un — Louise Poteet is an unusually popular player, being the only member of the east who has played in it each year since its organization in the fall of 1923 — the personelle having entirely changed — otherwise — since then. Elaine Lemon bears the unique position of wife of the Dean — which part was written especially for her by the librettist, with lyric adaptations. Mrs. Nevins plays the part of all round busy and capable person, and Clara Evans is Vice-President, odd job man. emergency squelcher and general roustabout. There is no satisfaction comparable to that oj making one ' s neighbor happy.
