"The Scarecrow" by Dramatic Club

The Graduate Committee of the Harvard Dramatic Club has chosen "The Scarecrow" by Percy MacKaye '97, as the play to be produced by the club the first week in December.

This play, "a tragedy of the ludicrous," as Mr. MacKaye calls it, consists of four acts, the first of which is laid in a blacksmith shop. A small town in Massachusetts is the scene of the play, and the time the latter part of the seventeenth century.

Mr. MacKaye has written several well-known plays, the most famous of which are "Sappho and Phaon," "Mater," and "Jeanne d'Arc."
