FACULTY MEMBERS DRAMATIZE LEAGUE COUNCIL HEARINGS

Twelve members of the Harvard faculty, momentarily placing behind them name and degree, will have parts in a dramatization of the hearings of the 65th Council of the League of Nations as it met, first in Geneva, and later in Paris, to discuss the Sino-Japanese problem. This repetition of the Council hearings is to be given at Agassiz Hall, Radcliffe, on January 28, at 2 o'clock; the affair is being sponsored by the League of Women's Voters and by the Educational Committee of the League of Nations Association.

In organizing the dramatization, which is in two acts, excerpts have been drawn up from the records of the session, of which there are but two copies in the United States. The men taking parts are each impersonating the delegate of some country as at the actual session, and the participants will make speeches, motions, and will vote as in the actual hearings held in September. The speeches will be in abbreviated form, but of the same content as when actually given.

President of one act will be M. O. Hudson, Bemis Professor of International Law, who is to impersonate Briand, of France. The other part of the drama will be presided over by F. B. Sayre, professor of law, who has the part of LeRoux, of Spain. Other parts are as follows: Viscount Cecil, of England, Sir Herbert Ames; Senor de Madariaga of Spain, G. G. Wilson, professor of International Law; Sir Eric Drummond, of England, Secretary General, J. J. Johnson '87, professor of Civil Engineering; Sze, of China, K. N. Marshall '21, instructor in government.

Completing the list of participants are the following: Herr Bernstorff, of Germany, S. B. Fay '96, professor of History; de Matof, of Guatemala, C. W. Put- nam '11, instructor in government; Lester, of the Irish Free State, Eric Wendelin; Grandi, of Italy, B. C. Hopper '24, assistant professor of Government; Yosdu Zawa, of Japan, Knight Biggerstaff; Braadland, of Norway, J. B. Thayer '21, assistant professor of Comparative Law; Barreto, of Peru, E. V. Huntington '95, professor of Mechanics; Sokal, of Poland, R. C. Dexter; Fotitch, of JugoSlavia, F. L. Kennedy '92, associate professor of Engineering Drawing, Emeritus; and Prentiss Gilbert, of the United States, R. P. Rich.

The interpreter is to be L. J. A. Mercier, associate professor of French and Education. A delegate for Panama has not been selected as yet, but there will be a complete group of delegates when the dramatization is given.

The program of the afternoon will be opened with a description of the situation in Manchuria to provide a slight background with which to prelude the actual hearings of the League Council which it provoked. This statement will be given by Mrs. L. J. Johnson. The dramatization, which is being coached by Mrs. C. W. Putnam, will then follow, the procedure, speeches, recommendations, voting to be done just as it did in Geneva and Paris.

Tickets for those not connected as members or otherwise with either of the organizations that are sponsoring the affair on January 28 are obtainable in Cambridge at the offices of the Cambridge League of Women Voters at 42 Brattle Street, at a price of $.75 each.

Members of the audience will be allowed to ask questions
