Detroiter Reuben Silver Directs `Shakespeare Under Stars' Play Shuttling back and forth, be- tween Yellow Springs and To- ledo, 0., a distinguished cast of actors appears in a series of Shakespearean plays. The se- ries, known as "Shakespeare Under the Stars," preceded the sensational Stratford, - Ontario, undertaking. It is a more am- bitious program, and . this year the company is presenting seven Shakespearean productions. One of them, "Comedy of Errors," first presented at the Toledo Zoo on July 11, there- upon going to Antioch College in Yellow Springs on July 18, was d i r e c to d by Reuben Silver, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Silver of Detroit. Mr. Silver is now in Yellow Springs, supervising repeat per- formances of the "Comedy." He is the dramatic director of a popular Cleveland playhouse, Karamu House. Holding a B. S. from Wayne University and an M. A. from the University of Connecticut, Reuben Silver now is working on his doctorate at Ohio State University. Of interest also in connec- tion with the "Shakespeare Under the Stars" series is that an Israeli, Rubin Sifter, who had played with Habimah, is a member of the cast of this interesting set of players. - At Toledo zoo, four plays already have been staged — "Much Ado About Nothing," "All's Well That Ends Well," "Comedy of Errors," and "King Lear." The fifth play in the se- ries, "Love's Labour's Lost," commenced this Wednesday evening. This and the other plays will alternate from now until the end of the season on Couple Celebrates 50th Wedding Year Wayne U. Students Announce Betrothal Sept. 9.

It will be followed by repetition alternately of all the plays on the "Shakespeare Under • the Stars" schedule, with the Reuben Silver di- rected "Comedy of Errors" again to be staged on Aug. 14, 24 and 30.
