...first Cambridge performance of "Queen Philippine" was given in the Pi Eta theatre last evening. The opera shows the effects of the previous presentations, in running even more smoothly than it did on Graduates' Night, and repeated encores were given to several of the songs. The choruses, especially, were very effective. Of the principals, great credit is due F. M. Sawtell '02, who at short notice took the part of John de Breeze in place of C. A. McCarthy '02. The play will be presented again tonight in the club theatre at 8 o'clock. A few good seats...

...rehearsals for this spring's Pi Eta play "Queen Philippine," have been going on for over a month. Decided progress is shown and everything points toward a successful production of the new piece. Already the first act has been staged and attention is now being given to the second act. The choruses have learned their parts well, but have not yet acquired the necessary ease and precision. The club is fortunate this year in having among the principals several men who have had experience in former plays...
