Movie Review

‘Seven Days in May’

Better

Melodrama Than Morality Play

by Paul Jenson

There are two films now in re-
lease that deal with threats to this
country and its government. One,
Or. Strangelove: or How {| Learned
to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb,
deals with the one error, or insane
officer, that could touch off a nu-
clear war (more on this f''m another
week), With this basis, it vould fall
in the same group as ,On the Beach
and other such pictures.

The second film, Seven Days in
May, was shown in Albany last week
In it the President (Fredric March)
is about to sign a disarmament pact
with Russia,

While Congress has approved it,
the majority of the people are against
the treaty, and the Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff (Burt Lanca,
ter) so fears that it will meana sur-
prise attack by Russia that he in-
tends to take control of the govern-
ment.

A Question of Time

The question at issue here, how-
ever, is not The Bomb and the
relative safety of its being banned,
or kept as a deterrent. The valid-
ity of the President’s treaty is
never really questioned (it is pre-
sented as a very practical one),

The issue is whether Lancaster,
disagreeing so violently with the
treaty that he fears it will mear
the end of his country and having
such a majority of the people be-
hind him that he would surely be-
come president at the next election,
would in any way have justification
to seize control of the country
immediately, Or should he wait until
elections, even though he devoutly

believes there would be no country
then?

This question is brought up at
only a few points during the film,
including the somewhat preachy con-
clusion, It is generally ignored, and
never really tackled, and the story
is presented almost solely as a
melodrama — though a fairly ex-
citing one ~ in which Lancaster,
while not an out-and-out villain, is
nonetheless definitely in the wrong.

Not of Morals
Since it avoids the problem of
The Bomb, and only superficially
attacks the one it does present, the
film has no stature as a drama with
any sort of meaning.

But as a melodrama, it is quite

Fredric March gives President
Lyman a sense of reality and pro-
jects some of the weight of the office.
Ava Gardner, in a small role, is
adequate and utilitarian, Edmond
O'Brien’s Soutiern senator is a bit
too close to Charles Laughton’s in
Advise ond Consent.

The script by Rod Serling offers
sharp dialog and soine tense scenes,
as well as the sudden, unprepared-
for arrival of a piece of evidence
that saves the day.

Direction Ingenious
John Frankenheimer’s direction
is strong, ana in individual scenes
very good indeed. At one point,
as Douglas secretly examines amap
in Lancaster's office, the latter
can be seen approaching down a

effective, though the patriotic
speeches detract from the suspense
and excitement,

The picture has what could be
termed a ‘ quality” cast. The char-
acters played by Kirk Douglas, as
the officer who first suspects the
conspiracy, and Lancaster lack di-
mension and depth, but the physical
details of acting are sinovth,

Search for New Music Forms

It has been this area that produced

television set, part ofa communica~
tions system. Douglas, with his back
to the set, is unaware and suspense
is built nicely by this unusual meth-
od, which eliminates cutting between
Douglas in the office and Lancaster
approaching.

Frankenheimer, who received his
training in television, is one of the
better directors working in Holly-
woud, Although at times his camera-
work doesn’t have the effect desired,
he, at least, has the courage and
ingenuity to attack his material in
new and different ways.

His direction works in this case,

PAT FASANO.

If you have been in Richardson 291 during the past
week you may have noticed a number of people in
sweatshirts and dungarees, armed with screwdrivers,
hammers, nails, paints, and light bulbs. They are the
cast and crew of the State University Theatre pro-
duction of The Flies, and the set they have constructed
is something they can be proud of.

Set design for the Theatre is under the direction of
Mr, John J. Moore, a new member of the faculty. Ina
discussion of his set I asked Mr. Moore to give some
of the reasons he chose this particular design. He
stated, ‘'‘The Flies has a Greek format, but it is not
a Greek play. There are many illusions created. But
they are not an attempt to make it real. It is a highly
theatrical presentation,

Timelessness of Theme and Effects

In may instances, there are special effects used.
For example, there is a strange intermixture of modern
and ancient weapons used to achieve a particular dra-
matic effect or statement. Effects are intended to
surprise and encompass the audience and bring them
into the play, but all effects are intended fakery.’’

The people working on the set feel it is almost alive
because there is so much going on, it becomes an
integral part of the play. Platforms and levels were
designed specifically to help the groupings of actors
and to create interesting relationships between the
actors and between the actors and the audience, Cos-

tumes, too, are a combination of Greek and modern
dress, not for authenticity’s sake, but to make a state-
ment.

No Specific Setting

I asked Mr, Moore if The Flies has ever been staged
in this manner before. He stated, ‘‘We have inter-
preted the play visually as best we can. But it could
be done entirely differently if it were being done on
Page stage. We have to utilize the facilities we have
as best we can. We have even sacrificed audience space.
But it is our intent to present thisas a highly theatrical
production. A Greek setting is not important because
the basic philosophy is true, no matter what period we
are in. It is the story of the struggle for man’s free-
dom.,’*

Mr. Moore concluded,

‘This show is of,
the theatre. [t is our answer to Cinerama,’'

LIBERAL, RIGHT WINGER TO DEBATE IN PAGE HALL TODAY

“The Campus Generation; Right or Left’? is the
subject of a no-holds-barred debate scheduled in
Page Hall at 1:25 p.m. today. James A. Burkhardt
and Fulton Lewis III, two young men of deep con-
viction, will conduct this debate at the invitation
of the Forum of Politics.

An ardent spokesman for the liberal stand, Professor
Burkhardt, who teaches political science at Stephens
College, Columbia, Missouri, has consistently espoused
civil liberties as a member of the American Civil
Liberties Union and the Americans for Democratic
Action.

Fulton Lewis III. an eloquent advocate of the need
for conservatism in America today, is currently
National Field Director and a member of the Board
of Directors of Young Americans for Freedom, the
nation’s largest conservative youth arganization,

Articulate Debaters

These two are famous in debating circles for the
articulate manner in which they present their arguments.
Debates in the past between them have always provoked
interest, and in the words of Forum of Politics
spokesman, ‘This promises to be one of the best
debates at State in years.’’

ECONOMICS CAN BE CHUCKLES

Many of you have heen avoiding economies because it is 80
widely known as “the dismal science.” Oh, good friends, stop
cheating yourselves of many a hugh and cheer, because eco-
homies is x positive riol! True, it is culled the dismal science,
hue that is only beeause it was invented in 1681 by Walter C

Dismal.

It is easy to understand why Mr. Dismal’s discovery of
economies is today almost forgotten, for the fuet is that he
himself only stayed with the subject for two or three days.
After that he took up embonpoint, which means fatness. It i
said that at his apogee, Mr. Dismal reached 1200 pounds, This
later became known as Guy Fawkes Day.

Tt was not until 1776 when Adam Smith published his Wealth
of Nations (or Ozymandias, as it is usually known as) that the
world came te realize what a rosy, twinkly, fun subject eco-
nomies is, AS Mr. Smith showed in his jocular little treatise,
there is nothing complicated about economies,

‘this later became Kuwe ds the [ouisitta Purchase

When there isa great demand fora produet, a great supply
is placed on the market. When there isa stall demand, there
is a stuall supply. ‘Take, for example, custanets. You walk into
nny average Amerieni town today and UL wager you won't seo

‘To Aduim Sinith, Esuy, belongs the distinetion af popularizing
economies. Mr, Sinith was followed by David Ricardo, In fuet,
everywhere he went he was followed by David Rieardo. Mr
Smith finally got so annoyed that he summened aw habb:
British policemen are ealled, and had Mr. Ricardo arrested.
‘This later heeume Known as the Louisiana Purchase.

Upon his release from gaol, as a British jail is called, Mr.

ALBANY STUDENT PRESS FRIDAY,

Review of 1963-64 Senate Session

Tax Veto Leads to Changes in Attitudes, Procedures

by Joseph W. Galu
Editor's Note: It is conceded thot
ince Galu was a senator the are
ticles are, by necessity, somewhat
autobiographical.

Money wds the dominant issue in
the Student Association Senate dur-
ing this past administration. The
largest student budget in the history
of the college was created by the
various acts of Senate.

The first veto by the President
of the University, Dr. Evan R. Col-
lins, was issued A new budget
procedure was created for the sec-

dent tax to $27.90, an increase of
$4.40, Patrick Cerra '64, the Pres-
ident of the Student Association, met
with Hartley to discuss the proposed
increase.

Hartley suggested that Surplus be
tapped and the increase in the tax
be limited :o one dollar, Cerra
agreed to this since the Business
Office reported that Surplus was
$19,223.88.

This meant reducing Surplus by
$9056.57 and raising only $80,850.00
in student tax. In all of these dis-
cussions the $18.50 tax for varsity

athletics was not considered since
this is not under any form of stu-
dent control,

Audit Reveals Error

The June audit as completed by
mid-summer revealed that the Sur-
plus fund was only $14,981.24 with
bills outstanding of more than one
thousand dollars.

Cerra reacted to the news by
saying that the figure was too small
to stand a reduction by nine thous-
and, He wrove a letter of his feel-

ond year in a row, A committee of
Senate was set up to evaluate the
student tax.

A New High
The total budget for all organiza-
tion and $3400 for a Contingency
fund brought the figure for the total
to $89,908.57, This figure was
brought to Dr. David S, Hartley,
the Dean of Students.
The original proposal was to in-
crease the student portion of stu-

the rate for the tax. This had not
been done. The reason for the veto
was the assumption that this would
have allowed a single individual to
set the student tax (for the first
time.)
Misunderstands Fostered

In all of his dealings on the sub-
ject, Cerra dealt with Hartley, who
misrepresented the reasons of

ings to President Collins, via the
Dean of Students,

President Collins vetoed the re-
quest by Cerra that the tax rate be
raised so that money would not
have to be taken from Surplus and
so that all of the budgets could be
maintained.

President Collins assumed in his
decision that Senate had passed on

Apathy Leaves Senate
Ineffective Despite Rules

to obtain passage.

The only exceptions were sick-
ness and death in the family of a
Senator, This led to many pro-
posals being defeated despite sup-
port by more than even 55% of those
present.

No student money was spent with-
out at least 50% of those present
voting for the expenditure, This
was a definite improvement,

Senate got off to a fast start and
continued strong through last year’s
second semester,

As of September, things slowed
down. There were resignation:
there was the budget veto, and there
was general boredum on commit-
tees.

The workings of any legislature
are influenced by the rules used,
the personalities of the member-
ship, and the issues which arise.

For the first time the committees
of Senate sat together. This de-
stroyed completely and effectively
the old party atmosphere.

Another innovation was the wear-
ing of semi-formal attire by the
membership of Senate,

Procedures

A major advance was attempted
in the encouragement of parlia-
mentary procedure. Pat Cerra’s
first appointments included that of
John Sturtevant '64 as Parliamen-
tarian,

Sturtevant made a valiant attempt
to enforce the accepted procedures
of legislative function, but he and
Senate were thwarted in this effort
by the dominant tone of Senate—
apathy

Many Senators considered all at-
tempts to follow correct procedure
as attempts to waste time. The
result was long fights over whether
ur not to follow procedure followed

Committee Roles

Except for Finance and Services
committees, most committees
seemed to lack any clearly defin-
able function. Several special cum-
mittees were forme', They failed
to stimulate much interest.

Matters were not unproved by
the attitude of the S, A. President

Students Keep AA Board ‘Closed’

Athletic Advisory Board meetings are open toevery-

They all gripe about us being a

one. We want to make this fact absolutly clear,
since no one knew it before. We have come to this
conclusion because no one showed up at the last
AA Board meeting which was also open to everyone,

AA Board has continually been a sore spot among
students since it handles about half of student tax
money and previously held all its meetings in secret,
refusing to publish its minutes.

Many objections were raised, and rightly so, to
this secrecy, Now, however, AA Board has yielded
to the demands and opened its meetings. We feel
the students should take full advantage of this oppor-
tunity.

We especially expect to see the members of Student
Association at the meetings. As they will soon he
in the process of passing budgets and appropriating
monies, they should become well-acquainted with the
workings of the Board and with the way it uses its
allocation,

at State.

Politics Played Key Role in Determining Laos Conflict

by John Hunter

(continded from last week)

“In April, 1961, a Special Forces team
was overrun and three American GI’s were
killed,’’ Savage said, ‘‘One man was captured-

same time, a chopper was shot down and
Grant Wolfkill, an NBC photographer, was
captured as well.

We knew the village in which Ballinger

and Wolfkill were being held and the strength.

of the force guarding them. A chopper
pilot volunteered to go along. The American
government vetoed this idea hecause U.S,
personnel were not allowed to be used in
an offensive situation,

It was also felt that this action might
result in a political incident. As a result
of this decision, Sergeant Ballinger spent
15 months in a box. When Ballinger was
released, he had just about every disease
in the book, and now is nearly blind, as
well.’?

Student Finance: Growing Complexity Forces Change

ac

Board of Finance Levies
First Student Tax in 1919

by Debby Friedman

The creation of the position of
Student Association treasurer and
a larger Finance Committee were
two proposals advanced in the recent
S, A. elections. It was hoped that
this would facilitate the handling of
student monies.

The complexity of student finan-
ces necessitates these changes now,
just as other changes were deemed
necessary in past years, Simplifi-
cation of procedures was the mo-
tivating force behind each modifi-
cation.

Student Board of Finance

In 1917 and 1918 finances were
at rather loose ends as there was
no definite source of revenue for
the growing number of student ac-
tivities, There was also no or-
ganization to supervise the budgets
of groups such as the newspaper
with revenues.

Thus the Student Board of Fi-
nance was formed in 1919 to man-
age the financing of student-run
activities, To finance those en-
deavors the Board decided that each
student must pay a blanket tax.

Every student would benetit great-
ly from the tax. The first levy was
Set at seven dollars. The budget
was a fraction of what it now is, It
was a relatively simple task to de-
cide on the amount of that first tax.

The difficult part was getting the
students to buy the tax ticket, Over
half of the students did not pay the
tax, and budgets always had to be
cut. In 1937 President Brubacher

made the tax compulsory.

Complex Duties

The duties of Finance Board were
complex. The eight student mem-
bers had to prepare budgets for
every Organization financed by Stu-
dent Tax and submit them to the
Student Council for approval,

The final budgets were then sub-
mitted to the students for final ap-
proval ata compulsory weekly meet-
ing. Then, as now, appropriations
of under fifty dollars could be ap-
proved in committee.

The specific duties of the Board,
according to the Constitution that
Preceded the document we now have
Were inany, It had to provide all or-
Ganizations receiving tnoney from
the S, A. treasury with uniform sets
of books and instructions for their
use,

Statements Issued

A bi-monthly statement 8, A, fi-
Mances containing the current re-
ceipts and expenditures of each or-
ganization had to be published. The
thembers had to muke sure that all
money earned by any orgamzation
would be put into the S, A. treasury,

The board investigated and acted
upon requests for extra funds from
surplus and authorized line trans-
fers within already approved bud-
gets. Budgets of organizations which
Violated any procedures could be
frozen.

Class Board of Finance

Until 1957 there was also a Class
Board of Finance which consisted of
the vice president of the S, A. who
served as chairman, and the treas-
urer of each class. The treasurer
of the board was a faculty member
appointed by the president of the col-
lege.

The members had to publish a bi-
monthly statement of the class fi-
nances containing current receipts
and expenditures of the classes. It
also had to collect class dues in
cvoperation with the S, A, officers
who collected the Student Tax,

Mew Financial Policy
During the past year definite fi-
nancial policies have been set gov-
erning room rentals, travel by S.A,
members, and advertising revenues

The 1963-64 Senate made seve
recommendations to the new Senate
regarding financial policies, A
graded Student Tax is under con-
sideration. Each student would be
assessed according to the benefits
he derives from the tax.

According to the Student Evalua-
tion report, the budget procedure
passed by Senate makes the prep-
aration of the Student Association
budget an executive function,

This shows just how much influence the
Pathet Lao had.’’

Jack continued by saying that neither
the Vietnames nor the Laotians have any
understanding of democracy or comm-
unism, These people support the com-
munists because they would be shot if
they didn’t, Support for the guerrilla
movement comes from North Viet Nam
and Red China,

Someone estimated that four or five mil-
lion people in Viet Nam support the com-
munists and the rest don’t care.

“There has been a big build-up in
U.S. personnel in Viet Nam,’? Jack went
on, ‘But of the approximately 13,000
troops stationed there, nearly 70% are
administrative personnel.

Mao Tse Tung, Red China leader, wrote
that ‘‘People in a country are to the guer-
rilla as water is to fish.’? These people
are not nationalists. Their loyalties are
to the villages they live in. The problem
is in defending these people.”

Taking another drag on his cigarette,
Jack continued by saying that until re-
cently, the strategic hamlet, or defended
village, seemed to offer the best solution

to this problem of defense, By grouping
several villages into one compound, it
was reasoned that defense would be pos-
sible,

Now, however, the Viet Cong are strong
enough to use 500 to 700 men against
these strategic hamlets and win, using

Current Comment

Legisature Ignores

by Joseph W. Galu

The New York State legislature is
often called the best state legislature
in the nation. Such comments cause
me to mourn for the other 49 states,
Tif one forms a judgment of the two
* pranches according to their current
performances, one condemns our
state government.

The houses assemble each year
for a period of three months, The
208 men and women are the highest
paid state legislators in America,

The voting procedures are such
that in committees everything is
secret and on the floor deals assure
unanimity on virtually all issues,
All committees are stacked sv that
there is no two party conflict.

Few Dedicated Men

men for the legislatur Many
outstanding people have served;
most leave the bodies as soon as
possible. Except for the majority

and a few committee

The current session 1s faced with
many problems, Rockefeller is busy

with extra-curricular activities
which keep him out of the state,
This is an election year and the

legislaturs desperately want to be
able to show the voters sume ac~
cumplishments

The biggest problem 1s that of
the budget. Fur three years now,
the budget has been balanced due
only to gimmicks aud oue-shot non-
recurring items such as advancing
collection dates tor various taxes,
recalling loans, etc

Rockefeller Balancing Act
This year the budget must remain
balanced, The state constitution re-
quires the governor to submit a
balanced budget, but it does not
requiye the legislature to maintain
the balaiive

Needed Reforms;

anced Iudgets, the budget will re-
main balanced one way or another.

The legislators have backed away
from the reform legislation which
is needed — gun reform, court re-
form in New York City, surrogate
reform, and prison reform not to
mention conflict of interest legis-
lation,

The legislators seem willing to
bring home to the voters only a
record of expenditures for all the
usual things. Education is at the
top of the list. as always. There
is not enough money in the budget
to increase the amount of aid.

The result of this is agitation
for either the use of bonds author-
ized by the voters years ago or the
increase of the cigarette tax by one
more cent per pack, Neither is
considered offensive to the voters.

Both are olfensive to Rockefeller.
This brings us to the crux of the
matter.

Needs ond Frustrotions

The legislature desperately wants

to do something, but it can do only

those things consistent with Rocke-

feller “in his philosophy and Rocke-

feller in his role as a presidential
aspirant

The results so far has been a

disunct lack of leadership from
Schuyler Mansion, This 1s due to
the facts that Rockefeller is out of

the state very often and that Mal-
col Wilson ts the Lieutentant Gov-
ernor

Wilson is far enough right to have
a very small circle of friends =
Robert Welch, Edwin ‘Ted’? Wal-
ker (the retired general), John Rous=
selot, William Buckley, and John
Tower, Wilson is tou far right to
lead even the general conservative
upstate Kepublicans

Virtually all major legislation is
bogged down in committees where
lobbyists are getting their way and
the people of the state are getting
nothing. What litle legislation is
progressing 1s being watered down
and made meaningless.

Government Intervention Inconsistent

by J. Roger Lee

Government intervention into the
workings of our economy are gen-
erally arbitrary and violate the
spirit of objective law.

Even in regard to so basic apoint
as the purpose for which interven
tions are made there appears to be
no basic definable principle on which
these government's actions are
predicated,

In late 1960, the federal govern-
ment took legal action against twen-
ty-nine major pro-
ducers of electrical
equipment. These
firms, among whom
were General Elec-
tric, Westinghouse,
and Allis-Chalmers
were charged with
price fixing, that is,
entering into agree-
ment to set the prices of their
goods at a higher level than the
market would bear in the absence
of such an agreement,

This was done without regard
to the effees on the electrical

In this case’s decision (which
sent seven corporate executives to

price fixing was against the ‘public
interest," since the agreement was

On February 26, 1964 the Tariff
Commission decided, ‘When
chromic acid purchased from Aus-
tralia at less than fair value is sold
in the United States at a price sig-
nificantly lower than all domestic
manufacturers’ wholesale prices of
the like product in the United States,
thereby greatly disrupting and de-
pressing prices in a major United
States market for such product...
such sales of the importer product
are anticompetitive,”

The Tariff Commission placed a
duty on chromic acid in order to
raise the price of the product to-
ward the level it had attained prior
to the entry of the Australian acid
into the market.

In one case, the government, in
order to provide the consumer with
low consumer prices, acted to keep
the price of consumer goods down
to the level at which competition
would have set them,

Dissimilarity
No single unifying principle of
government intervention can be dis-
cerned from the two examples given

In the second case, however, the
government acted, not to keep the
prices of consumer goods down to
the level at which competition would
set them, but rather, acted to set
the prices of chromic acid at a

-higher level than the market would

bear in the absence of such an

action.

Still Price Fixing

This is nothing more than price
fixing by edict instead of agreement.
In the first case, competition was
said o have been avoided by an
actioh which prevented the desir-
able altercation of prices in the
market place and the consequent
drop in consumer prices.

In the second case it was the
altercation itself and the price drop
it caused that were said to be anti-
competitive.

Since a morai code is a body of
principles by which an entity regu-
lates its actions, it follows that any
entity, be it an individual or a
government, which acts without pre-
dicting that action on a principle or
set of principles, is totally immoral,

by Ron Homilton

The scene is the Cobleskill gym and the time is
Friday night, February 28. The gym is filled since

it is the last home game

of the season. The game

highlights the Albany State Frosh against the home
town men. After the Aggies completed their warmups
the Peds still had not made an appearence. The Peds

were back in Albany raging.

It seems that when the game was scheduled Coach
Neil Williams understood that the team was going
to play on the 29. The Cobleskill Coach understood
that the game was on Friday the 29. Unfortunately
Friday was not the 29. I wonder what the Cobleskill

fans thought,

Who Is ‘'The Greatest”

To end all debates cn **Who was or is the greatest
athlete of all time?’? we have searched the archives
and have unanimously decided on Commodus. He was
the son, illegitimate of course, of Marcus Aurelius and
was a fanatic when it came to sports. He did just about

everything and then some.

We couldn’t possibly go in

to some of his feats, but to give you some idea of his
prowess, he was undefeated in 734 gladitorial contests.

Movie Review
‘Citizen Kane’ Genesis of Modern
Technique; ‘Single Greatest Picture’

by Paul Jenson

This Saturday evening the Inter-
national Film Group will present
Citizen Kane. This is an event of
particular importance, as the film
is one of the few that can definitely
be designated as a landmark in mo-
tion picture history.

It’s been acclaimed by many, in-
cluding Bosley Crowther of The
N.Y. Times, as the single greatest
picture ever made; it was so far
ahead of its time in technique and
content that it still stands, over
twenty years later, as a remark-
able achievement,

against RKO, but also every other

Scared, the studio heads pleaded
that the film be suppressed, or at
least modified, but Welles held his
ground and consented only te a few
cuts in the dialog.

This seemed to placate Hearst,
and the film was released, But
Hearst nonetheless permitted no

Welles o Prodigy
The major reason for the film’s

success is the character of its |
creator, George Orson Welles. Born |

in 1915 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, he
was an infant prodigy and received
not formal schooling until age ten.

In his early twenties he produced, ©

directed and usually starred in var-
ious Broadway productions, includ-
ing Dr, Froustus,an all-Negro Mac
beth and a modern-dress Julius
Ceaser.

At the same time he achieved
great popularity on radio, He was
the original Shadow (‘What evil
lurks in the hearts of men? Only
The Shadow knows for sure,’'), and
presented both adaptations and orig-
inal plays on The Mercury Theatre
of the Air,

One of these adaptations occurred
on the evening of October 30, 1938,
and has since become a public
legend. This was Ins version of
The War of the Worlds, which cre-
ated quite a panic by convincing
many that we were, in reality, being
invaded by Martians.

Inevitably this ‘boy genius’? was
brought to Hollywood. RKO-Radio
Pictures signed him, and assigned
Robert Wise then a film editor, to
acquaint the novice with the tech-
niques of film-making.

After two unrealized projects —
Too Much Johnson and Contrad’s
Heart of Darkness-- Welles began
work on the film that was to be
Citizen Kane.

Welles acted us producer, direc-
tor, star and co-writer (with Her-
man Mankiewi The imagina-
tive youth’s ignorance of film tech-
niques was an advantage, for many
of the effects he conceived were
declared ‘impossible’? by Wise,
Welles, undaunted, attempted them
anyhow, and with the help of tus
photographer Gregg Toland did much
that had never been tried before,

He also borrowed heavily from
other directors, such as Griffith and
von Strohetm, but i his hands, aud
combined with his innovations and
the techniques of sound te had
learned in radio, they seemed new,

The State University Theatre will conduct auditions
for its fourth and final production of the season,
Raft of the Medusa, on March 10 and 11 in the Studio
Theatre (R 291) at 7:30 p.m. There will also be an
afternoon audition on March 11 at 1:30 p.m. Those
involved in the State University Revue whose rehear-
sal schedule conflicts with evening auditions are
encouraged to attend the afternoon audition.

The cast will include fourteen characters; six boys
and six girls between the ages of nine and twelve,
and one younger child. Only one of the fourteen
will be portraying an adult. The age ofthese characters
will provide a unique opportunity and stimulating
challenge for the students of the University.

The play, by the controversial German playwright
George Kaiser, concerns a group of children marooned
for seven days on a small rrft. The play, a searing
comment on Christianity and the human condition, is
a stimulating experience for the technicians as well
as the actors because of the universal requirements of
the production,

Mr. James Leonard, who is directing the play,
is most anxious to have a large number of students
audition. In case a student should wish to become
more familiar with the play and the roles that are
to be filled, he has put copies of the play on reserve
in the library under his name.

He emphasizes the fact that no previous acting
experience is necessary. There is also a great need
for people who are interested in technical work,
The staff hopes that through this production many
new persons will he incorporated into the dramatic
activities of the University.
