Prentiss Players Give Drama of Middle Ages Covered by the dust of six cen- turies "The Second Sheperd's Play" is being reviewed by the Prentice Players, an amateur dramatic club composed of students of Northwest- ern university.

Nethercot, instruc- tor in English at Northwestern, is coaching the players. He declared the author of the price is unknown and that it was written for the old trade guilds which flourished in Europe in the Middle Ages. The play itself is in the form of a prelude to a religious drama, and will be put on at the Evanston campus on the evenings of May 18 and 19. "Few the item ly satisfied, sold.
