There have been two changes in the officers of the Dramatic Club since the election last spring, J. F. Joyce, Jr. '32, the president, announced yesterday. G. E. Mottla '32 has been appointed vice-president to succeed J. L. Williams, and O. V. Wootten '32 is succeeding C. A. Lane as secretary.
No definite decision has been made about the fall production, but the following list from which the play will be chosen has been made public. It is the policy of the club to present plays which have never been staged in this country; therefore this list includes productions which have been famous on the European stages.
"Charles and Mary", one of the plays under discussion by Joan Temple, well known English writer, is based on the life of Charles and Mary Lamb. This play was for a long time popular in London. "Danton's Death", by George Buechner, has been done in German in New York by the Max Reinhardt players but has never been given in English. "Wozzeck", another production of the same author, has been presented in this country as a grand opera, but never as a drama. "The Chaulk Circle" is an oriental fantasy which has enjoyed great success in Germany under Max Reinhardt. And finally there is a play by the German author Stefan Zweig "Jeremiah".
It is hoped to secure the opinion of interested people on the selection of the play to be given and suggestions will be welcomed from any member' of the University.
