FIRST PLAY
IS SELECTED
Begin With Oscar Wilde’s Com-edy,
“The Importance of
Being Earnest”
BOYD MARTIN, DIRECTOR
The University of Louisville
Players will open their twentieth
season with a revival of Oscar
Wilde’s scintillating comedy, ’The
Importance of Being Earnest.”
The announcement of the se'
lection of this play as the first
major production was made by
Boyd Martin, director of the lay'
ers, at the first meeting this sea'
son on September 16th.
Mr. Martin made a number of
statements concerning the play in
which he demonstrated the fact
that although “The Importance of
Being Earnest” was written in
1895, it is just as vivacious and
modern as some of our current
Broadway productions, and pos'
sesses many of the qualities of the
plays of Noel Coward.
At this meeting Louis Lusky,
president of the Players, welcom'
ed the members, and expressed
the hope that many of the new
members would become assiduous
workers at the Playhouse. Mr.
Lusky also requested the coopera'
tion of the students of the Uni'
CARDS PRIME
FOR OPENER
WITH CENTRE
Squad in Good Shape After
Three Weeks Work; Go to
Parkway Field for Work
BACKFIELD LOOKS GOOD
With three weeks of practice
behind them, the University of
Louisville gridiron warriors are
rapidly shaping into a clicking ma-chine.
However, there are many
rough spots still to be ironed out
and, as yet, there has been no def'
inite line'up announced.
During these practice sessions
the freshman squad has worked
diligently with the varsity and is
learning the fundamentals under
Coach Cregor, so it will be prim-ed
and ready for next season as
a varsity.
Due to the hot weather which
has prevailed lately, the squads
have had but few really hard prac'
tices. There have been a few in'
juries thus far and they are heal'
ing rapidly. Captain Bill ThreL
keld, who sustained an injured
shoulder during practice, has re'
ported that an x-ray revealed his
wing is about healed. A1 Gries-haber’s
split cheek is healing fast
and he should be in there fighting
again soon.
The combination of Giannini,
Doll, Putnam and Bertelson is
functioning well in the backfield
as are Edelen, Montgomery and
Wagner. The linemen who look
well in action are Threlkeld,
Long, Pirkey, G..Ryan, W. Ryan,
Giardinia, Smith, Mulhall, A.
Wright, L. Wright, Moser, Tay-lor,
Groves and Forsee.
This week the combined squads
started practicing at Parkway
Field where they can work out
their plays in private.
New Courses For
U. L. Law School
The Law School of the Univer-sity
of Louisville has added anew
course to their curriculum which
plans to explain the psychology of
crime. Dr. S. S. Ackerly, psychi-atrist,
who is connected with the
Psychological Clinic of Louisville,
will assist in the course in Crim-inal
Law and will lecture from a
medical point of view.
Several professors of the Lib-eral
Arts School will also assist
in this plan. Dr. Robert Kutak
of the Department of Sociology
will commence the course with
eleven lectures on the relations of
Law and Sociology. Dr. Charles
W. Williams, of the Department
of Economics, will follow with ten
lectures on the Economics Basis
of Law. He will also discuss the
relationship between Capital and
Labor and the Social Control of
Business.
Dr. Kenneth Paul Vinsel, de-partment
of Political Science, will
complete the course by discussing
the relationship of Law and Gov-ernment,
touching upon the polit-ical
aspects of law.
