races, and other exciting and interesting
things which are promised by the committee
in charge.
Lake Whatcom is one of the largest
and most beautiful lakes in Washington.

EXPERIENCED CAST IN
Nearly all of the people who take part
in the play, "A Midsummer Night's
Dream" have taken a part in a similar
production at some time in the past.
Everyone chosen by the committee has
proven himself qualified for the part.
In former plays, Mr. Hoppe has taken a
part, but this summer his time has been
given to directing. About seventy-five
students are taking part in some manner.
Following is the cast:
Theseus, Duke of Athens.:.. Loris Barker
Lysander, in love with Hermia
Harold Smith
Demetrius, his rival Chester Coon
Egeus, an Athenian Noble, father of
Hermia , John Thennes
Philostrate, Master of the Revels
William McNeil
Nick Bottom, the weaver
Herbert Hanson
Quince, the carpenter Sam Ford
Snug, the joiner John O'Rourke
Flute, the bellows-mender..Carrol Haeske
Snout, the tinker Francis Clausen
Starveling, the tailor Orrin Evatt
Hippolyta, queen, of the Amazons.
Katherine Evatt
Hermia, daughter of Egeus, in love
with Lysander Frances Vaughan
Helena, in love with Demetrius
Peggy Stovell
Oberon, king of Fairy Land
Norine Nelson
Titania, his queen Bernadine Arant
(Continued on Page Two)
The Greenwood Theater is the appropriate
name adopted by the Normal
Drama club for its out-of-door performance
of Midsummer Night's Dream.
A complete auditorium to seat 600 will
be erected on the north side of the knoll
for two performances of Shakespeare's
fairy classic, on next Wednesday and
Thursday evenings.
Many groups of talented students
combine to make this summer's production
notable. The training school furnishes
the wee fairies, Peas-blossom,
Cobweb, Moth, and Mustard seed. The
department of Physical Education will
stage the charming fairy dances which
are an important part of this midsummer
frolic. The department of Music
will offer the beautiful fairy chorus, to
be sung by the Normal quartette.
Uhder the direction of Mr. Hoppe,
these people have been rehearsing faithfully
all summer. A careful, adequate
and smooth performance is promised.
Owing to the ambitious nature of this
production and the heavy expense entailed
in its making, the management
of the Drama club hopes for the enthusiastic
support of the student body. If
you have not had the pleasure of enjoying
the peculiar charm and witchery of
a drama performed on our campus, you
will not want to miss seeing this
splendid offering.
If Shakespeare is to be kept alive, to
be lived and loved, he must be acted. The
college and school actor and audience
have an important part in keeping the
tradition of a living, pulsating Shakespeare
rather than the purely formal literary
one he is apt to become.
Next Wednesday and Thursday evenings
in the pale moonlight, with a bewitching
background of natural greenery,
the genius of Master Will, again
shall in some measure be felt. Once
again the Athenian lovers will flee the
court and sharp Athenian law into the
forest. Here shall come the rude mechanics,
seeking to practice that most
classic and sidesplitting burlesque of
all literature, the masque of Pyramus
and Thisbe. Here too, impish Puck
shall play his weird tricks. The love
potion brought to Oberon will again sadly
turn the lovers awry until the first
beams of the morning shall put to
flight the dreams of this bewildering,
madcap summer night.
