Just a few days ago the marriage of the Harvard Dramatic Club and the Radcliffe Idler seemed certain. But a villain appeared in the form of a slightly risque play, "The Trojan Horse" by Christopher Morley, which is just what the H.D.C. is looking for. But in this case what is good for the gander is not good for the goose. At least, the goose, subsisting on a very chaste diet, is not allowed to eat the liberal food that the gander likes.

As the first opportunity for Harvard students to act this fall, "Trojan Horse" is far better than previous fall plays. The H.D.C. has apparently changed its policy of doing heavy, artistic shows and has made its selection this fall with an eye to pleasing both the actors and the audience. Thus it better fulfills its position as the only completely dramatic organization in Harvard College. But the play itself is not the only improvement in the club's fall schedule, for at least the H.D.C. has broken away from the tyranny of Sanders Theatre. Instead this production will take place in Brattle Hall, the only decent theatre within walking distance of the Square. John Holabird, whose settings in Sanders have always been outstanding, will now have a chance to work with the tools of Broadway which cannot be used in Sanders.

As the combination of play and theatre is good, the outlook for fall dramatics is promising. Yet there is often a slip between the selection of a play and its production. Only if the Dramatic Club-- by dint of hard work--can achieve the success it expects, should the students, upon whose support the club depends, gather together and chorus, "Good for the Gander."
