SI. JOHN’S DRAMATIC j
CLUB ON SPRING TOUSi
Enthusiastic Audience In Easton
Delighted With Performance
Of “Stop Thief’
A T SALISBURY TONIGHT
Playing before a parked house in
Kuaton. Md., last night the St. John's
Dramatic Club, which left here Wed
nesday for its spring tour of the Kust
ern Shore, scored one of the bigges
lilts that the organization has yet
made In anv of the towns across tic
lay. The Bt. John's players and th
Annapolis girls, who are assisting
them in “Stop Thief,” are highly com
plimented in reports coming from
Easton.
The theatre of the Eastern Shore
town was filled for the performance
last evening, ami applause for th<
players was plentiful. This is the
first year that the St. John’s player
have visited Easton, their initial sea
son last year having teen played in
towns farther down the Shore. With
the Introduction that they already
have from their former appearance P
appears that the Dramatic Club per
i
expected to draw “standing room”
crowds, Th > attendance in Salisbury
will prohltaly he the largest of any
town on the “Shore,” for Silislury lr
well and favorably impressed with the
dramatics of the St. Johnnies from its
acquaintance with both the Dramatic
Club and the “Frolicking Johnnies'
the minstrel show that the cadets
gnve there earlier in the season.
Two Sections Of Tour
The ncrota-lhc-bay tour of tho ea
dets is tliis year divided into two sec
tions. Tonight they will play a*
Salisbury and tomorrow they will re
turn to Annapolis, to go hack to th<
Shore after tho week-end. On tin
second trip they will make appear
ances in Cambridge and other towm
in the upper counties of the peninsula
The plays of tlie cadets are coach
ed by Professor S. S. Handy, head of
the Department of English at St
John’s, who is accompanying the
parly on the tour. Mrs. Handy is alst
a member of the party.
The advertising value of the Dm

| almost the most important of any fea-!
j ture that has been introduced Into the
college publicity program for a uum-j
! her of years, and the interest in St. I
John's as an educational institution j
lis said to be much greater in the i
j towns that the players have visited, j
Last year was the first season that j
the club hag attempted the tours j
“abroad.” Formerly the activities 1
had been limited to the performances
at the college for the amusement of
the cadets themselves. Year before
I last the club visited three or four j
! smaller towns In Anne Arundel and
j gave their show.
Success met the short tours so
.regularly that the Idea of a trip fur
| ther at'road naturally occurred, and
the trip was first made In 1921. Pub
i licity agents for the college have re
!port<d that St. John's Is very favor
ably known in the communities where
the shows have been given, and the
enrollments of students from those
places have grown.
The female parts of the show arc
taken by Annapolis girls, who are en-
I thusiastic and able supporters of the
J Dramatic Club, and who contribute
largely to its success.
