"ALL STAR" CAST FOR COMEDY

Nine Men Have Parts in Wax Works—Seat Sale Now 800.

More than 800 tickets have been sold for "Mrs. Jarley's Wax Works," which will be presented next Tuesday evening in the University Auditorium, under the auspices of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae. Part of the proceeds of the comedy will be given to a fund for the proposed Women's Building, and some of the money will be used in making Homecoming Week a big success for the University alumnae.

Special costumes have been ordered from Kansas City and St. Louis, and the "All Star" cast includes twenty-five persons, nine of whom are men.
