FORMER GRIDIRON STARS AS ACTORS IN SENIOR PLAY Rehearsals are Being Had Regularly and Other Preparations are Being Made for the Play. Possibly no other play could be presented to a modern audience that would have the college environment as that typified in the Senior Play “Strongheart” which opens its initial performance at the Lyrie Theatre in Bryan, May 21. A College play true to life in every detail, full of the true college pep and enthusiasm, will be seen and there is no doubt that such a play being presented as it is, by such an experienced cast, who live the col- lege life, will find a warm spot in everyone’s heart. There are includ- ed in the cast those whom we see everyday in our own school life. There's the football team captain, the coach, the trainer, other stars of the team, and——of course nearly every one of them must have a girl to make the play a bit serious at the crucial moment. Everyone knows just what “Kitty” was—everyone appreciated the play as presented by those among our own midst—surely there is a treat await- ing for everyone in “Strongheart.” Make your arrangements to be pres- ent at the opening act of the opening night in Bryan, May 21st. Music will be bountiful and the costumes worn will be only the best and latest cuts in style. It’s worth ‘your while, you cannot afford to miss it, it’s going to be the best.
