Pudding Limerick Contest Open to Freshmen; Cast Rehearsals Start in Earnest With Silvers' Return; Lee to Train Chorus

"The Pudding Show's name is 'Who's Who'.

No one knows what it means, but do you?

It's a movie perchance....

The two lines that best complete this limerick will win the Hasty Pudding Freshman Contest, according to an announcement made last night. The contest is open only to the class of 1927 and the first prize consists of two free tickets for the undergraduate performance on April 10. For the second best lines submitted, one ticket will be given free for the same performance. All answers must be submitted before midnight, April 4, to the Contest Committee, Hasty Pudding Club, Holyoke St. Anyone may offer as many answers as he wishes but they must be legible. The winning limerick will be published in the CRIMSON of April 8 and at the same time, the prizes will be malled to the winners.

With the announcement of this contest, the preparations for the first performance start in earnest. Coach Silvers took charge of the cast again on Sunday, bringing with him from New York Sammy Lee, a producer, who will drill the chorus and the dancing.

The complexities of the plot and the difficulty of producing harmony between the setting of Janet, the Broadway actress, and that of Don John, the dissolute old Spaniard, promise to be so exacting that there is little danger, according to Coach Silvers, of over training the actors.

A dinner and a dance will accompany each of the performances in Hot Springs, Va. The Hasty Pudding Graduates of New York are giving a dance at the Plaza after the matinee on April 19. Dinners for the cast will be numerous during the performances in Cambridge and the graduates are planning a supper on the stage of the Flue Arts Theatre after the last performance in Boston, which is scheduled for April 20.
