PURDUE STUDENTS TO PRESENT PLAT

Date Was Not Set But Manager Arranges lor Ellis Theatre—Success at Other Places. Mr. G. F- Lyons, of Purdue University, was in Rensselaer Monday to arrange with Manager Ellis for the presentation here of “A Scrap of Paper,” a very lively comedydrama which they have alreadypresented with success at other places. The performers are out on tfyeir own hook, so- to speak, and this is not an official viSit, but the players come endorsed by the best of recommendations and it is more than likely that the theatre will be packed to see their performance. The date was not definitely arranged but it will probably be either Thursday or Saturday evening, the 15th or 17th of May. Mr. Lyons is a very pleasant young man and he states' that -the play was rapturously received at Oxford last week. The cast is composed of six young ladies and six young men, while the manager, Mr. Lyons, looks after the box office and a young lady piano player also accompanies the troup.
