Four Harvard men, prominent in dramatics, will take important roles in Bernard Shaw's play "Candida," to be given in Brattle Hall next Monday afternoon and evening. They are J. P. Gifford '14, who recently took a leading part in the Delta Upsilon play; J. A. Crafton 1G., who played "Dulaney" in "The Fourfiushers," the Dramatic Club's production; C. W. Putnam 3L., of the Cambridge Dramatic Club; and H. DeW. Stevens '16, who will play the part of 'Morrell." The title role is to be taken by Miss Jessie MacDonald, who had the same part at the Radcliffe performance...

Baldensperger, whose impersonation of the somewhat ungrateful role of Marguerite Boudoin, the sentimental wife of the practical Gaston, was the feature of the performance. Mme. Baldensperger played her part with a fine artistic reserve which was characteristically French. Miss Fogler as the younger sister, was charming and not too effusive and Mme.

...Cooper Cliffe, who played the fantastic role of Capocomico, brought out the debonair and mischievous qualities of that part most admirably. Miss Rita Jolivet was a most winsome and attractive Turandot and Jerome Patrick made a handsome Calaf...
