Drama League for Atlanta.
Mrs. A. Starr Best, of the Drama
League of America, gave two lec
tures in the interest of her work in
Atlanta on Thursday. The lectures
were largely attended and were well
calculated to inspire the audience
with a desire for a better standard
for plays.
Recently Miss Carolyn Cobb, of
Athens, was made organizer for the
Drama League in Georgia. The
movement has met with favor in At
lanta, and many of the clubwomen
have become interested in the plan.
The Drama League proposes to bul
letin all good plays and ignore those
that do not uplift. In this way will
be brought about a higher standard
for the theater.
Miss Cobb has begun her work by
coaching the students of the Georgia
colleges in plays that are recognized
as standards. When the Atlanta
league is organized a decided im
provement in the performances given
in this city is anticipated.
There is a committee selected from
the membership in every town to at
tend each play as It Is presented, and
If it measures up to the standard, to
Issue a commendatory bulletin. In
some of the cities the league numbers
it£ members by the thousands, and
many more are reached outside,
