It will be presented by players from the Thalian Dramatic club of the School of Speech in the beautiful auditorium of the new Haven school. The elaborate dancing will be done by members of Orchesis, the honorary danc- ing sorority of the University, under di- rection of Margaret Schultz-Kranz. Dean Farnsworth will be production manager, and the orchestra from the Haven school, directed by B. F. Stuber, will provide | the music. The season will also see productions chosen from among a number of popular children's theater plays: "The Pon Little Rich Girl,» "Dick Whittington,' "The Three Spinners," "The Princess Who Would Net Say Die," and "Racketty-Packetty House," Ask for North Western Station at Howard St. Under the leadership of the Birch- wood District Improvement association and its president, Louis E.
