The Pi Eta Theatricals.

The Pi Eta Society will present for its spring theatricals this year a two-act musical comedietta, "The Campaigners." The book is by B. Taylor '01, the music by F. C. Gulick '00 and J. S. Chipman '01. The cast of the play is much larger than last year's and there is a decided improvement in scenic effects and in situations. The dress-rehearsal will probably come April 9. Public performances will be given in Cambridge the week before the Easter recess, and in Boston, Lynn, Quincy and Newton during the recess.

The cast of the play is as follows: Colonel Einnoth, military attache to General Smiles,  T. Stensland 2L. X. X. Hennessy, valet to the colonel,  J. O. Carson '02. R. H. Dailies,  A. S. Hills '00. Willie Waite, aid to Dailies,  C. C. Brayton '01. Major Mauser Bullet  (commandant at West Point), father of Bessie Bullet,  B. Taylor '01. Lieutenant Steel Armor, a cadet in love with Bessie Bullet,  M. J. Tobey '01. Mr. Hennerie Pipp, brother to Miss Prudence Pipp,  G. C. Griffith '01. Miss Bessie Bullet, partially bent on Steel Armor,  W. H. Taylor '01. Miss Dot Remington, a repeater from Winchester,  J. S. Chipman '01. Miss Minnie Ball, a rising expansionist,  A. M. Tozzer '00. Miss Prudence Pipp, Dean of Vassar,  A. W. Hollis '00. Soldiers, sailors, students, nurses, cadets, etc.

The time of the play is the spring of '98, after the outbreak of the Spanish war. The first act is at West Point. The Cadets are entertaining some Vassar students at afternoon tea, when Colonel Einnoth arrives with the announcement that Major Bullet and the Cadets have been ordered to Porto Rico to take part in the war. This causes consternation for all, but especially for the lieutenant who thinks his love match with Bessie Bullet will be broken up. It is finally arranged that the Vassar students shall also go to Porto Rico as army nurses. The lieutenant has a rival for Miss Bullet's hand in Mr. Pipp, who is encouraged by his sister, the Dean.

The second act, which includes several specialties, is a moon-light scene at Coney Ilo, Porto Rico, where the Cadets have been stationed. The lieutenant's courting continues, but is threatened by the sudden arrival of Mr. Pipp. He intrigues with his sister, the head-nurse, to get rid of the lieutenant. The troops, however, seize him and force him into the service, and when he deserts a few days later he is court-martialed. The war suddenly ends with the announcement of the Peace Protocol and in Pipp's absence, Lieutenant Steel Armor marries Miss Bullet.

The play will be produced under the supervision of Mr. James Gilbert. The officials are: Business manager, C. R. Hayes '00; stage manager, A. B. Holden '00; property manager, C. A. Howland '00; musical director, F. C. Gulick '00.
