DRAMATIC CLUB TO PRESENT "HAGOROMO" AT COPLEY PLAZA

To Take Part in Japanese Program to Be Given on Sixteenth--Japanese Girls of Wellesley to Sing

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Dramatic Club has accepted an invitation to present at the Copley Plaza hotel on the afternoon on Wednesday, November 16, the Japanese "Noh" play, "Hagoromo", which was one of the three short plays given by the club last spring. The play, which will be a part of the Japanese program at the Copley Plaza, will be given in a shortened form to fit the occasion.

Mrs. Lara Anderson, wife of the former Japanese ambassador has consented to let the club use Japanese friends and other Japanese decorations in her possession for the stage setting. As part of the program, the Japanese girls of Wellesley will sing the national anthem of that country.

"Hagoromo" is a Japanese fantasy that deals with a feathery Pennin cloak, capable of giving its owner the power to fly through the wind and clouds. The graceful nymph who owns the cloak has and cannot return to her native haunts in Tryiyania without it. She finally retrieves it from the fisherman who has found it, by teaching him the quaint dance of the Japanese Tenaine.
