P. L. Downs Speaking
Contest This Evening
This evening will see the first
oratorical contest that has been stag-
ed on the Campus in several years.
The doror of the prize, Colonel P. L
Downs of Temple, will be here, avd
the speakers are making active prep-
aration to speak their best.
In one respect the contest will be
an unhappy occasion, because one of
the speakers who qualified for the
coritest, C. R. Wood of Honey Grove,
was the vietim of a fatal accident on
Monday night. Mr. Wood was a gift-
ed speaker, keenly interested in the
contest, and determined to put his
best efforts into friendly competi-
tion of his classmates, who will do
him honor by speaking as well as they
know how.
Colonel Downs and the judges of
the contest will meet a few of the
Campus people at dinner in Sbhisa Hal
before the contest on tomorrow even-
ing.
The speakers and their subjects will
be as follows:
R. F. Royal, Pleasanton—“The Spir-
it of America;” M. W. Carlton, Austin |
—*“Centralization;” C. H. Jones, Tem-
ple—“Conclusion;” P. J. Washburn,
Houston—*“Politics in State Universi-
ties;” H. B. Simpson, Gallatin—“A
Good Word for ‘Ambition.’ ”’

CHARAGTERS IN PLAY
ASSURE ITS SUCCESS
Director Jubilant Over Excellent
Adaptability of Local Actors to
Cast. Tickets on Sale
Succes in the annual Senior Class
play which will be given Saturday
evening as one of the first events of
the commencement period is best as-
sured in the unusually fortunate cir-
cumstance of being able to select a
play with characters susceptible of
portrayal by local talent. Director
Owens who is casting the play under
the title of “The Importance of Being
Earnest,” is jubilant in the fitting of
his characters into the personnel of
the play. The actors make an admit-
able suggestion of individuals living
under the circumstances depicted in
the course of the action.
Reserved seats will be on sale in the
Y. M. C. A. today.
E. O. Buck, one of the leading char-
acters in the play, who is to depict
| the life of a dashing young gallant of
| London town with an exciting repu-
tation, startling mannerisms and dar-
| ing habits, has a vivacity which nat-
| urally casts him for this form of stage
action. His entertaining qualities of
| vivid wit and humor have been made
known locally in his work as a mem-
ber of the yell staff the past season,
and on a basis of this demonstratio..
he has been made yell leader for nex:
| year. His fitness for stage appear-
ance in the role of one who puts an
unsophisticated country lass in fits
of infatuation and makes her cast dis-
cretion aside in choosing matrimou.
alliance with him is best evidenced in
his choice by the senior class as one
of the six most popular men on the
Campus in their distribution of honor

Joining Buck in a distinetly opposite
form of character but with similari-
ties of physical form and disposition
is J. F. B. Lyons. They find it very
much to their interest to conform to
the reputation and adopt the place of
each other in a number of conditiors
that make it most interesting to the
