Lawrence Chapter of AAUP Deplores UCLA Loyalty Oath

Lester Badenoch and Frances Bunks have been assigned the lead roles in “The Playboy of the Western World”, according to F. Theodore Cloak, director. The play, a comedy by John Millington Singe, will be presented arena style on April 26 and 27 and May 2, 3 and 4. This is the final major production of the Lawrence college theater for the year.

Major supporting roles have gone to Roger Christian, Dennis Seymore, Georgia Hester and Kelt Packard. Others who have parts in the play are Steve Guigou. Tom Keough. Barbara Kelsey, Carolyn Silver, Bar­bara Fredericks. Betty Burns and Robert McCabe.

"The Playboy” is not a conven­

tional “folk-play;” it neither conde­

scends to its characters nor makes

them insufferably quaint. The pa­

thetic or foolish weaknesses of its

people are treated with under­

standing, but not sentimentally. It

is. to begin with, extravagant com­

edy saturated with elemental fancy

and high spirits, an artistic distilla­

tion of folk existence. The comedy,

however, contains a measure of

symbolism and satire on Ireland—

her love of “heroes" and her ten­

dency to confuse the fools with the

heroes in her long struggle for free­

dom. Above all. “The Playboy” pic­

tures the “truth about the world," to

quote Bernard Shaw. People every­

where insist upon finding a "hero”

among themselves and then there

is always a man ready to act that

part. It is this theme of human­

ity’s preference for the dream rath­

er than the actual which infuses the

comedy with universal meaning.

The theme ii centered about a

glamorous and unforgettable char­

acter. Synge’s “hero,” Christopher

Mahon, played by Badenoch, un­der the transforming power of imagination progresses from a peasant clod dased by his own vi­olence to “a likely gaffer in the end of all, the only Playboy of the Western World.” The love scene between Christy and Margaret Flaherty, called Pegeen Mike, who is played by Miss Bunks, l^among the most delicate and enchanting in all literature.Old Mahon is played by Christian,

and the innkeeper, Michael James Flaherty by Seymore. Miss Hester assumes the role of Widow Quin, and Packard plays Shawn Keogh. Philly Cullen is portrayed by GUi- gou, Jimmy Farrell by Keough, Sara Tansey by Miss Kelsey, and Susan Brady by Miss Silver. Miss Bums takes the part of Nelly O ’Riley and McCabe plays a bellman.

The action takes place near a vil­lage on a wild coast of Mayo in Ire­land. The time is autumn, 1907. During its first performance at the

Spring registration will begin on

Monday, April 16, and will end on

Wednesday, May 9. During this pe­

riod all students now in college who expect to return to college will arrange their academic pro­grams for the 1951-52 school term in consultation with the college deans and with faculty advisers.

Present juniors will review with their advisors the programs they may already have decided upon, at least tentatively, for the senior year, making whatever corrections or additions may be necessary. Students who are now sophomores will make out programs for the next two years, and this involves the selection of a major. Sopho­mores are therefore advised to ex­plore as extensively as possible the fields, with the deans, and with their parents. These preliminary consultations should take place be­fore registration begins. Freshmen will register for the sophomore year.

Keck, Noted Chicago Architect, Speaks Before Art Association

George Fred Keck, celebrateti!--

architect from Chicago, spoke be­fore 100 students and townspeople Sunday afternoon in the Worcester art center at Lawrence collegc.

Keck's visit climaxed a two week period exceptionally rich In the arts at Lawrence, including a pro* fessional ballet troupe, chamber music performances and one of the major dramatic productions of the year.

Keck received an honorary doc­tor’s degree from Lawrence last June, and is well known in the Fox River valley as the architect cf the William Kellett home at Brighton beach, Menasha.

“All building today it contem­porary — but rather than give it a name. I’d rather call it good and bad building," the designer said.

The revolution in our mode of living during the last SO years is felt in the building trades. Archi­tects must take into consideration the impact of automobiles, new in­ventions, préfabrication and a greater supply of technicians when they design homes for contempor­ary living.

“One of the reasons that today’s buildings look different is that life and the family unit has changed so much." he stated. “The building industry is changing to a point where they are experimenting just as pychologists, and sociologies

are analyzing changes in contem­

porary life.”

“The new esthetic is that of solv­

ing housing problems successfully,

and it brings startling effects/*

Keck, one of today’s most striking

innovaters, said.

For example. Keck said, the ar­

gument whether a roof should be

flat or pitched stems from the days when a pitched roof was the only known method of keeping wa­ter out of a house. Today, other methods of keeping a house dry are available, and flat roofs may be employed.

The matter of windows is also a hangover from the day when windows and ventilation were the same element, and windows had to be quite small to keep a house warm. Today it is possible to have transparent walls, but wo still use old fashioned windows, Kcck relat­ed.

One of Keck's favorite forms of construction is a solar house, fac­ing south, and employing large ar- eas of glass for winter heating. The houses are planned with the posi­tion of the sun, so that a wide over­hang eliminates sunshine in sum­mer and admits it in winter.

The lecture was illustrated by colored slides of Keck houses.

More than 100 persons were on hand to hear Fred Keck, Chicago architect, give o r

illustrated talk on his work Sunday afternoon ¡n the Lawrence college art center. Among

the guests were Mr. and Mrs. William Kellett, Menasha, whose Keck-built house has been

in the architectural spotlight for the last ten years. The Kellets are shown at the left, with

Professor Charles M . Brooks, of the Lawrence faculty, and Mr. Keck. (Post-Crescent Photo),

Veto Negro Admittance— Isn't 'Mind of Texas'

A majority opinion report to the

Texas Intercollegiate students as­

sociation recommended last week

that Negro colleges be admitted in­to that organization. However, a member of the committee stated

he was not in favor of such action

because he did not believe it rep­

resented the “mind of Texas.'*

TISA is "a group of about 28

colleges and universities gathered

together for mutual benefit,” ac­

cording to the Daily Texan. The Texan also said that the matter of Negro entrance into the organiza-

tion must be put to an assembly

vote. When this happens, declared

the Texan, “It is to be sincerely

hoped that the assembly will indi­

cate that it is truly a forward-

looking body and concur with these

other fíne Texas institutions in the question of Negro entrance into TI­SA.”

THOUSANDS of students all over the country are making this test—proving for themselves Chesterfield smells milder, smokes milder than any other cigarette.

THEY KNOW TOO . . . Chesterfield gives them more for their money... Chesterfield leaves no unpleasant after-taste I That’s right, More-for-Your-Money...

Committee Accepts 11 Seniors For Honors Work This Year

Eleven seniors have applied and

been accepted by the Honors com­

mittee to do honors work in the

field of their major this year. They

•re George Chandler, Harry Clor, Ni\ncy Fry, Susan Fry, Durward Gauthier, Roland Grishaber, Joyce Herreid, Donald Petersen, Eugene Piette, Mary Schoettler and Jer- vold Walecka.

It was felt several years ago that students amassed a great number of facts during their col­lege careers without co-ordinat­ing them into a coherrent pat­tern of thought. The honors pro­gram was constituted by the ad­ministration and has given some students an opportunity to do concentrated work in certain fields and to reach definite con­clusions from their research.An honors student must have a

grade point average of 2.25 or bet­ter to qualify for honors work. At the end of the second semester of his junior year he must submit an application to the Honors com­mittee. with a brief statement of his proposed thesis. If he is ac­cepted he may begin work in his senior year.

In addition to his Honors paper, the student must take a three-hour oral examination in his subject at the close of the year. The student, in his senior year, may take hon­ors work for either three or six hours credit. •

The Examination committee rec-

tics, studying under Andrew C.Berry, professor of mathematics.

Grishaber is working with Ste­phen F. Darling, professor of chem­istry, on the synthesis of vanilloin from vanillen and its derivities.Walecka is also working under Professor Darling.

Miss Schoettler and Petersen are working with Paul F. Cundy, associate professor of chemistry.Miss Schoettler's topic is concern­ed with the paper chromoto- graphy process for separating two organic compounds. One of the organic compounds, ethyl vanillate. Is a drug used in med­icines. Petersen Is dealing with work in inorganic chromotogra- phy, a comparitively new branch in the field of chemistry. It con­cerns the prime method used for the separation of inorganic com­pounds.A critical study of Prose style is

the subject of Miss Herreid’s thes-si. She is studying under Howard. Th bo k contains orlgina, artl.

Bucklew Writes Of Psych Book In Collaboration

Five Men Write Articles Experiments Reviewed On Empirical Theories

Dr. John Bucklew, assistant pro­

fessor of psychology at Lawrence college, is one of five men who have collaborated on a textbook which recently came from Rine­hart press.

The book is titled “Empirical Foundations of Psychology” . The two senior authors, N. H. Pronka and J. W. Bowles, are at Wichita university and Indiana university respectively. The others are D. W. Herman, Wichita; H. Hill, of the U.S. Public Health Service, and

Last year 12 students did honors work, in 1949 there were 17 and in 1948 five people.

Chandler is doing a paper on the Tragedy of Euripides under Maur­ice P. Cunningham, assistant pro­fessor of history and classics. He is the only honors student doing work in the classics field.

The Eplstomology of the Social Sciences is the paper being done by Clor under William H. Hiker, assistant professor of govern­ment.

Michigan Checks High Living Costs, Effects on Dating

The Michigan State News recent­

ly made an informal check on the

effect the high cost of living has

on dating. Here are some of the

results.The coffee date only adds up to

14 cents, but as one male student remarked, “You can’t depend on getting a girl who doesn’t eat.” A guy buying a daily cup of coffec for himself and his “friend" would have spent $5.60 so far this term. And If he and his date smoke just two cigarettes a day,- that would cost him another 80 cents.

Another student declared, “You usually figure on about 70 cents for food alone. That is, of course, un­less you get a girl who eats noth­ing but ¿teak dinners.” Most stu-

We’re not bragging, we’re not proud, but, but, — look, look two of the brothers are opening their door with Phi Beta Kappa keys. (Jerry Walecka and George Chand­ler.) The pledges are drinking their Hadacol out of their scholarship cup. We’ve got to hand it to the Delts. They got a 1.635 fraternity average and we only garnered a mere 1.633 — we'll buy next time.

Shouldn't Raise Fees Says 'Daily Kansan'

The Daily Kansan, University of

Kansas, took a look at the state

budget committee’s suggestion to

raise student fees, and expressed

the following opinion:

“The suggestion illustrates how

far from the beatert path you may

stray when led by a passion for

economy. Student fees should not be raised. They are too high al­ready.

"To expect the student to con­

tribute more toward running the

school. . .is to Ignore the reason

for and defeat the purpsoe of state

schools. It injects the ugly condi­

tion of 'ability to pay" into the

offer of higher education for Kan*

sas youths. It discriminates against the poor youngster who may be better qualified for college train­ing than the rich one. j **. • .State schools snould re­main places where the student with determination and a willing­ness to wash dishes or sling hash can get through—even ii the folks are on relief.”

Beck Receives Good Reports From All Sections of Country

Enthusiastic reports from book

reviewers in all sections of the na­

tion have come to Warren Beck,

professor of English at Lawrence

college, on his third novel "Into

Thin Air.”

"Time magazine compared his

writing to Willa Cather, and com*

ments on his "delicacy, under standing . . . exquisite taste."

Beck was named by the Asso­ciated Press as "Author of the Week” following the novel’s re­lease, and pictures, biographical

in this new work, he is at the peak

of his power.”

August Derleth, a novelist him­

self, commented in a Madison pa­

per; "The novel is well knit; the

story is straightforward, unencum­

bered by any prose-poetic flights.

It is unquestionably the work of a

young novelist and short story writ­

er who has already established himself in the literary scene by his earlier books.

The Saturday Review of Litera­ture remarked: "We have learned to expect from Mr. Beck aware­ness of delicate emotions in his characters, expressed in fitting prose that is rich with shades and half shades of meaning, and we are not disappointed.”

The Milwaukee Journal labeled it "a story of beauty, strength and pathos.”

An editorial column in the "La dies Home Journal” magazine con­tained the following statement: "In to Thin Air is a delicate introspect* ive story, told in understatement and with a beauty of phrase which we always associate with the Brit­ish, yet it is by the American War­ren Beck. It is one of those rar ities, the story of a ‘true love’ (al­so more often found in English lit­erature than in our own), and it will be enjoyed, by women parti cularly, to the last touching shred.”

A reviewer in the Chicago Daily News called Beck "a free wheel

Opportunities for Summer Jobs

Placement Bureau Information Center

The placement bureau has been

writing to industrial centers from

which Lawrence students come, to

help the students of this college in

securing jobs for the forthcoming

summer. The placement bureau

has also contacted resorts and na­

tional parks for students interested

in this field of work. The bureau

has heard from thirty resorts and

several camps, etc. and informa­

tion about these jobs has been plac­

ed in the separate dormitories.

Early this winter the dormitories

were supplied with blanks which

the students could fill out specify ing their type of work and locals desired. These blanks, collected by dorm coordinators, were sent into the placement bureau, whereupon the bureau wrote to the specified cities to inquire about the jobs. A form is made out by the bureau for each student, and these forms are given to the separate dorm coordinators.

These coordinators, when notified by the bureau of received informa­tion about a job pertaining to a student and inform him about the

year Mr. Heselton will stress more fundamentals than in the past. The first four days of prac­tice will be devoted to condition­ing and the like but from then on, scrimmaging and tough drill will be the order of the day. Practice will be climaxed by the annual intersquad game on April 21.Every position on the team is

wide open. The team is especially weak in offensive and defensive ends. Both Pawer and Spangenberg are gone and the positions are open to anyone that can play them. All­conference Phil Haas and his alter­nate Bob McCabe will be sorely missed in the backfield. Defensive backfield men were badly in want­ing last year. Six touchdowns were scored on Lawrence in the air and many more were set up in the same way.

This problem must be solved be­fore Lawrence can regain the championship. The line situation was a bright spot last year and should continue to be this year, but even in that department newcom­ers wiill have a chance, for two top-flight men in Lou Meyer and

Glimpse Into Reporters' Lives: MacFarland, Hoy er This WeekB Y M A R Y S T A R K S

This week we present glimpses

into the lives and times of two more of our reporters.

Virginia MacFarland, a tall, dark­

haired freshman from Oconto, does

rewrites for the Lawrentian. A

member of French club, “Ginny”

participates in inter-class basket*ball and hockey, which are her fav- *port; T voltoybaU. baseball

orite sports. Every Sunday morning

she appears at the Congregational

church to sing in the choir.

Her interest in journalism began

during her high school years when

she rose to the position of editor

on her paper. Since her interests

lie in this area, she is planning to

major in English with a view to­ward teaching.

Next summer she will return to

Ephraim, Wisconsin, where she will

spend her third summ er as a wait­

ress at one of the resorts there.

Incidentally, her father was a Sig

Ep at Lawrence.

Once when it was spring, filling

the sky and the earth, a boy walk­

ed down a sandy road toward a

hiti covered with the dry-as-dust

yellow grass of the previous year.

The sun was warm, the air cool, ftnd here and t h e r e green •hoots w e r e p u s h i n g up through the crackling yel­low dead grass.The boy walked down the road toward the hill With the moist smell of leaves and the dry smell of the dead dry grass all about him.

Stopping for a moment, the boy

looked back and saw the last of

the houses was now behind him,

while farther back were the con­

crete streets and house-filled blocks

Where he lived. He could not see the roof of his home, but he knew Where it should be as he looked back from where he had come. As he turned, the hill ahead loomed up higher and nearer than it ever had been. Ho walked on toward the hill

The sandy road slowly faded in to the yellow grass, then ended Completely. The boy climbed the grassy hill, following the faint trail Started by the sandy road now be­hind him. He stopped, picked up a Stick and continued climbing; now and again he hit at a clump of

letter from the editor

to change the station on the car ra­dio.

‘It used to be called Sandy Road — really was sandy too.” He turn­ed and looked back as he spoke The streetlights were an even row behind him, and he could see the line continuing ahead for a short way as he looked forward again.

“It's a good thing they paved it,” she said. “Where are we going?”

“I just thought I'd like to look at this road — we'll go back If you like,” he said as he saw the hill ahead. There was a barricade with red reflectors which shone under the lights of the car where the road ended at the base of the hill, and he could see where the grad­ers and bulldozers had begun to cut the road's path up the hill. And on the hill he could see a house or two, but it was too dark, really, to see much.

”Yes, I want to see some of the kids. Let's stop at Harry's Place, ok?" she asked, looking at him.

“Sure, why not?” He turned the car around and drove back toward

This Isaac of the Lawrentian Is

the finale for the present staff.

With equal proportions of flee and

wistfnlness the editor hands over the I n s t r u m e n t s of news-

paper-production to his successor.

Part of the time It’s been a game,

but on occasion there’s been wall­

ing and gnashing of teeth among

the whole staff. Sometimes one

hears favorable comments on his

week’s work; more often It just

plain “stinks”.

But one thing Is certain—with­

out the assistance and loyalty of

a lot of people, there would nev­

er have been a paper at all. The

editor Is only a unifying factor;

to the reporters, the other mem­

bers of the staff, the editorial

board go the credit for the brunt

of the work. Past editor Anita

Higgins has been especially help­

ful in the formation of policy and

for suggestions which have im­

proved tne paper.

To our publishers, Post Pub­

lishing company we’re afraid

we’ve been particularly trouble­

some; they have been instrumen­

tal in making our paper look at

least to a degree professional.

We’re grateful for the assistance

of Mel Heinil, who has worked

with us on makeup all year, and

to Mr. Sternard, who has often

accepted more copy than we

should have taken down to be

set up.

To the new staff we offer hopes

for a succesful year.

a different approachSeveral times in the past the problem of fire prevention in Main hall

has come to the attention of one campuf group or another. The usual formula has been the institution of a short-lived, futile “don’t smoke in Main hall” campaign. At the risk of beir-g trite, we would also like to air this problem, although in a somewhat different light.

It seems apparent to us that something more than resolutions and signs against smoking are necessary to save the venerable flre-trap. It Is obvious that unless an armed posse Is stationed oty each floor, people will continue to endanger the building’s existence by smoking and stamping out cigarettes on the highly inflammable wood floors. Why not, then, tear down the signs and substitute In their stead some sort of receptacles In which students can put their cigarettes? This measure would aid to a degree, at least.In addition, there are several more extensive plans which, although

costly, might in the long run be valuable investments. Harlan S. Kirk, business manager, informs us that plans are bein£ made to tile the floors in the upstairs halls, if materials for this purpose can be purchased. This is a praiseworthy move; as an addition, more exten sive project, a sprinkler system might at some time be installed.

These proposals, however, would become realities in the future, not now. In the meantime, there are certain steps which students and faculty could take to lessen the risk. Perhaps smoking could be done in the basement and on first floor; a student group might volunteer to place inexpensive sand containers throughout the building.

The idea of fire prevention is often scoffed at as alarmist balder­dash; we emit a collective shudder, however, at the thought of several hundred students fleeing burning old Main hall some morning via the two narrow fire escapes on the south side of the building. And of course, the offices of faculty members house hundreds of volumes of valuable books, papers, etc., many of which are Irreplacable. Perhaps we might do w’ell to think about the preservation of the centerpiece of the Institution.
