Last Drama Tournament, as far as we can remember, was about 1941. It is not easy to transport a play 500 miles, and there is a possibility that not all colleges will compete.

VUC is producing "No Count Boy." which is a good play with a negro setting and relies on competent character acting and careful production. To produce it in the small time available is a rather ambitious undertaking, especially as the play requires a studied negro dialect.

Perhaps next year all colleges will plan their activities to allow for more time and thought for production. The main thing this year is to get the Festival hack on its feet.
