Light-Hearted Comedy' "The Boys from Syracuse" is a light-hearted a d a p t a t i o n of Shakespeare's comedy of mistaken, identity, "The Comedy of Errors," which in turn was taken from Plautus' "The Menaechmi." "Five Finger Exercise" won Peter Schaffer the New York Crit- ics' Circle Award for "Best Foreign Play of the Year," and over- whelmed both audiences and crit- ics when it opened in New York. A subtle interplay of hidden emotion and the unveiling of dis- cord within a "happy" family' WOES--Adriana (Judy Herrick) sings her woes to Lucinda (Nancy Abbey) in a scene from the first summer playbill, "The Boys from Syracuse" which opens tomorrow night in Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. highlight this powerful drama. When a young German orphan daughter of a nouveau riche fam- comes to England to tutor the ily, he looks forward to being ab- sorbed into a loving family. But in his gentle, naive way, the tutor innocently triggers the selfish pas- sions in each member of the fam- ily, that lie just beneath the sur- face. As he gradually realizes that the facade of family love is a sham, each member of the family reveals himself with terrifying ef- fects. ENJOY College Level International Folk Dancing dancing & instruction with the U of M Folk Dancers Ted Broth instructing Ugo Betti, often regarded as one of Italy's finest playwrights of this century, turned to politics in "Queen and the Rebels." The dra- ma of a queen assaulted by ideas and people alien to the form of government she provides, this play searches the workings of political progress. The rebels gradually take over her country, to rule in the name of the people. But as the political struggle progresses, the audience becomes aware of the wrenching personal struggle the queen en- dures as her ideas and her world crumble. For a change of pace, Dylan Thomas' "Under Milk Wood" will be presented the following week. Hailed by critics and audiences alike, "Under Milk Wood" is a gently humorous, always loving look at life in a small isolated Welsh town. The concerns, passions, and daily movements of the people of Milk Wood are protrayed in flow- ing verse by one of ourgreatest modern poets. Radio Production Originally written as a radio production, "Under Milk Wood" was transformed into an impres- sionistic stage play in 1953 that has been charming audiences ever since. Variously described as a more universal "Our Town" and a "dazzling combination of poetic fireworks and music-hall humor," the play will be directed by Clari- bel Baird.' University Players will wind up its summer season with two op- eras, Pergolesi's "La Serva Pa- drona" and Puccini's "Gianni Schicchi." Presented by the Opera Department, School of Music, the productions will be directed joint- ly by Josef Blatt of the Music School and Jack E. Bender of the Speech Department. They will be given on a double bill August 8-10, atcher asks Notes Need. Of Affiliate To Set .Pace, By GERALD STORCH t "Fraternity men and sorority women are expected, because of{ selection and high standards, to1 set the pace for the other young people," the national president of Lambda Chi Alpha declared Sat- urday. In addressing an Alpha Gammac Delta alumnae workshop, Tozier Brown examined some of thef challenges and problems facing af- filiates. "I think we should rejoice in1 the fact that we have a continuing opportunity to prove that a soror- ity produces better women and a fraternity builds better men. How else would we justify our exist- ence?"' Maintain Standard To maintain this standard of' excellence "in scholarship, leader- ship, deportment, the social graces and ultimate leadership," Brown urged that affiliates strive to re- tain their ideals, qualitative growth and reputation. "A fraternity is not an expedient thing; it is a vital living force that is based upon sound ideals," he said. "Lambda Chi Alpha . .. feels strongly about its rituals and teachings-not because they are secret or old, but because they are positive and good and represent what we all aspire to be." Brown then noted that by 1970 the college population will have have been double, but predicted that the number of affiliates will remain the same, due to the "small-living" fraternal concept and the difficulties in beginning new chapters. Build Quality "The obvious answer to me is building strength in quality, not in size. All of us must move steadily towards . . . eliminating the dis-. tracting elements which tend to lead men and women away ft'om the basic seriousness of purpose for which they are enrolled in higher education." He pointed out two Lambda Chi chapters had been suspended be- cause the men "were not of qual- ity and high standards." Elect McKeachie Senate Chairman Prof. Wilbert J.

Great Lakes Investigation s DULUTH-University President Harlan Hatcher, speaking last week at a meeting of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers, urged an increase in the amount of basic research be- ing applied to the commercial, sci- entific and recreational resources of the Great Lakes. Several of the problems he said needed more understanding in- cluded the need for larger locks at Sault Ste. Marie, how to extend the shipping season from seven to nine months and the necessity for deeper channels to help combat foreign shipping competition. "As the world's largest source of potable water, the lakes must be made to yield more information about themselves and their aquatic life." President Hatcher noted that the Great Lakes Research division of the Institute of Science and Tech- nology was doing a good deal of work in tackling these and other questions posed by the Great Lakes resources.
