Cast of Dramatic Club Play Chosen

The Harvard Dramatic Club will give three performances of "The Scarecrow" by Percy MacKaye '97 early in December, two in Brattle Hall, Cambridge, on December 7 and 9, and the last at Jordan Hall, Boston, on December 11. Tickets to the three performances are now on public sale in Cambridge at the Co-operative and of S. Underwood '12, Holworthy 10, and in Boston at the box office at Jordan Hall.
