Barrie's "Dear Brutus," selected as the final production of the current season by the Stover Theater. The play will be presented two nights, Thursday and Friday, May 18 and 19th, at 8 p. m. This is the play which brought wide spread recognition to Helen Hayes when it first appeared on Broadway. It is said to be a production which creates a mood of charming simplicity and yet leaves food for thought for both cast and audience. It is a comedy-drama and one which carries on the best tradition of successful plays produced by the Stover Theater. The cast is tops... It marks the last appearance for several outstanding actors—actors who have ept audiences entertained with heir fine acting technique in many lays. They are Bland Simmons nd W. Ret Turner and with this, their final appearance on the local stage, the little theater loses two fine actors and two fine people. Others in the cast include Betty Land, Joan May, Jackie Ritch, Sue Wilson, Martin Pearson, Vernon Collins, Carolyn Baltzer, Bob Huffman, and Ona Barfield who plays the role first created by Miss Hayes. With a cast and play such as this, the Stover directors—Stover, Giffin, and Preston—can't miss and the audience can't afford to miss this play which will doubtless emerge one of the best in a season of the best in theatrical fare. Tickents on sale Wednesday, May 17, from 3-5 p. m. at the theater box-office. Admission by activity ticket. Brown presented their senior recital.

Whitener, chairman of the Traffic Committee, reported today plans for traffic regulations on campus that will go into effect as soon as the DeLand Police Department completes signs designating the various changes. One of the first requests is that the area around Hon Hall be reserved for men living in that dormitory. Another change: there will be no parking on either side of Minnesota from the Boulevard to the East entrance to Holmes Hall parking area. This change is made for the safety and convenience of those students living in Stetson Hall who find it difficult to load and unload when returning from trips on weekends and during the week. Students are reminded of the parking area behind the tennis courts and are urged to take advantage of that space. This wiTl tend to balance the parking situation on Minnesota. Everyone is to observe all reserved spaces and no-parking signs. There will be student traffic monitors to give warnings for any ■violations of these changes that are made for the betterment of the campus. All students are asked to cooperate with the traffic committee on these changes. They were made to reduce confusion and to make for better safety—let's all do our part and cooperate.
