The first performance of the seventh annual play of the Deutscher Verein, "Pension Scholler," given last night at Brattle Hall, was remarkably jolly and successful. The play was carried through without a break and with action and spirit. The pronunciation was exceptionally faithful, the costumes characteristic and the scenery effective.

W. E. Sachs '04 as Phillip Klapproth made the most of a funny part, entering into the spirit of every situation. G. W. D. H. Gribble '05 played the ranting actor well. The love scene in which C. Ehlermann, Jr., '05, as Alfred Klapproth, reads his proposal to Friederika, was one of the best situations in the play. W. H. Chase '04 as Josephine Kruger, H. Henneberger '05, as Amelie Pfeiffer, and P. G. Henderson '05, as Ulrike Sposser, were distinctly feminine.

The Boston performance will be given in Potter Hall, tonight at 8 o'clock. Tickets, at $1.50 and $1.00, may be obtained from O. R. Koechl, 1 Russell Hall, and at the box office.
