The libretto was the workof a certain Raniero de Calzabigi, poetwho was the chief aide of Gluck in hisoperatic reformation. The story ofthe opera has to do with the searchof Orpheus for his d�n wife Euridiet:.Being given pennlSSl0n by Jupiter, hedc::seends into Hades and there search­es for her. Previous to this he haspromised Jupiter that he will not lookupon her face until they reach theupper world, and when Euridice isbrought to him, he leads her towardthe upper world without paying anyattention to her. She is amazed athis lack of attention, and reproacheshim. In a passion of love and sorrowhe turns and looks at Euridice annimmediately she falls dead.

I refer The DailyMaroon to the stories in its owncolumns of the completed schedule ofinterclass water-basketball games-­the first water-basketball schedule tobe conducted by students and com­pletcd, The editorial states that "­the manager has done nothing, asfar as the students know-." The"as far as the students know" quali­fying Ipbrase seems to have been putin for reserve use. But it is merelyacknowledgement of the fact (that.student opinion at the University wiilnot recognize the accomplishment ofanything unless it be accomplishedby the glare of red fire and the 'blat.ting of trumpets.Other contests than water basket­ball could not have been carried onthis quarter. 'For our restricted ath­letic grounds do not. make football• feasible; 'scheduling of inter-classfootball contests would be very det­rimental to the physical well-being ofthe students participating if propercorrelative physical culture were notinstituted-a course in grade gym­nastics or swimming will not fit 'Onefor a gruelling football contest. Thebasketball season has not yet open­ed; and a premature start would ham­per instead of enhance the "effortsof our athletic department to produce.good representative teams for theUniversity."In regard to the last point we askThe Daily 'Maroon to refer future"requests from .students who havebecome discouraged over the failureto push the movement" to the prop­er persons rather than to the pigeonholes of the editorial desk. And thenbefore The .Maroon "begs" the Coun­cil for an efficient system of inter­class athletics and thereby acknow­ledges its own helplessness, let itmake one feeble effort to "give us"a comprehensive plan for a systemthat will work at the University.

Shakespeare, Trilby, and The Red CrossBy CHARLES STERNSir Ber� and his company his Wolsey, the tblnness and senti­in a special Performance in Aid of the mentalism of his Richard If, the truthRed Cross Fund-at the Illinois The- of his Falstaff, the power of his Sven-ater-Tuesday, Dec. 12. "Julius gali.Caesar," Act VI. scenes 2 and 3; "Hen­ry IV, Part 1" Act 11,- scenes 2 and4; "Richard 11", Act VI; "As You LikeIt," Act III. scene 2; and P\ul Pot­ter's dramatization of du Maurier's''Trilby."On Tuesday afternoon, Sir HerbertTree made another of those large,sweeping gestures which he does sowell. The gesture was a performancefor the benefit of the allies' Red CrossFund. Its magnitude will be appreciat­ed, when one considers that it com­prised fodr acts from as many playsby Shakespeare, and a three-act' ver­sion of du Maurier's "Trilby." Theperformance lasted some four hours,and most of the audience-includingyour reporter-sat it through.Whether a. benefit performance forso good a cause should be a matter ofrecord rathe» than of criticism' is, Ithink, open to question. The audiencecomposed largely of tady-doctors ofthe drama" apparently thought thecritical attitude irrelevant to so gra­cious an occasion, and applauded ev­erything and everybody with indis­criminate fervor. As for myself, Ishall take the benefit of the doubt,and while reporting the proceedings,shall try to assay them.The performance was notable inthat it gave the more p�ng soulspresent an opportunity to �ge thehistrionic calibre of the actor-mana-.ger; cmore notable, however, in itsconfirmation of the early impressiongained here of Tree's virile showman­ship-a -kind unknown to his, country,which has been taught to revere' 'themeticulously feminine and furtive "re_alism" of Belaseo. From the momentyou came into the ,playhouse, and wereapproaehedx by cos'tum..,{ ladies whourged you to buy programs and por­traits of Sir Herbert to the fall of thecurtain on Svengali's death .. ' Tre�'ssplendidly free and masculine show­manship was. the outstanding feature::The pl'ogram was begun with thesecond and third seenes from thefourth act of "Julius Caesar," thescene of Brutus's quarrel �th �s- 'sius, and the appearance of Caesar'sghost. Mr� Warburton Gamble, being'physically longitudinal rather than'latitudiDal; fulfills the tradition of therole of Cassius, but as an actor. re­veals decided limitations. Miss Mil­lie Sim played Lucius,' Brutus's ser­vant, singing prettily to 3 lute, the'music of which was produced by aharp in the orchestra pit. Lyn Hard­ing was the Brutus-a very handsomeand commanding figure. ,His charac­terization was marred by a tendency­perhaps unavoidable-to revert to the.vocal and gestural devices he employsas Henry VilI.In the two scenes from "Henry IV"which followed those from "Caesar,"Tree gave his' famous Falstaff, con­vincing me that the farther a charac-,ter is removed from life, the betterTree can pla�T it. This is not meant tobe a derogation of the actor's skill. Itis merely a statement of what is quiteapparently the actor-manager's pre­disposition-if not his predilection. HisFalstaff is a very good characteriza­tion indeed, for that knight-the pon­derous annotators to the contrary, not­withstanding-e-has as much relation to"nature" and reality as a figure inYaeterlinck. Whenever Tree ap­proaches reality, bls art ·fails him.Hi� art is an essentially eccentric, ahighly-colored, and fantastic thing.Hence the poverty and inflexibility of.'. .....,. In the abdication scene from "Rich­ard II," Tree showed the effects of thestrain and fatigue he had undergoneplanning and rehearsing the benefit:Both his voice and his mind lost their'grip on the lines. Lyn Harding play­ed Bolingbroke in a properly flintymanner. And Henry Herbert inton-,ed wearily-as is his custom-in therole of the indiscreet Bishop of Car-lisle. comfortable-\,-.IWhen "Richard II" was over, th�curtain was lifted on a very old-fash­ioned "Forest of Arden" the scene be­ing that in which Rosalind persuadesOrlando to woo her. Miss Edith WynneMatthison played charmingly as Rosa­iind, pointing her speeches delicately,and with a fine relish for and apprecia­tion of the part. She makes a verypersonable youth-unlike Mr. War­burton Gamble who played oppositeher as Orlando. Miss Millie Simswas a pretty Celia.With the scene from "As You LikeIt," the Sliakespearean part of' theprogram was completed, and modern­ity-in the shape of Paul Potter'sdramatization of dn Maurier's "Trilby"held the stage. There was some goodacting here by Charles Coleman as''Taffy,'' by St: Clair Bayfield as themanager' of the Cirque des Bashi­Bazoucks, by Henry Herbert as theRev. Thomas Bagot, and by MissAlice Butler as Madame Vinard. MissElsie Mackay whose beauty, they say,has attracted proposa1s-business­from a number of theatrical managers-played Trilby, Indicating that des­pite her lovely person, she haf! �ill ajourney to make on the road of art.Her Trilby is' an ideal EngliSh dairy­maid" bright" fresh and elean,.'
