'Shadow of a Doubt' Illustrates
Hitchcockian Style Throughout

By ANDREW LUGG
Jean Luc-Godard, the French
film-maker, talks of an uncanny
knack that American directors,
have of taking a simple story and
making its events exist to pro-
duce a work of art that has more
guts, moredepth and more fodder
for critical appraisal than even the
director himself realizes.
Alfred Hitchcock's "Shadow of
a Doubt" seems a case in point.
The story-line of this film is ex-
tremely simple. Charles (Joseph
Cotton) is the "Merry Widow
Murderer" who goes to live with
relatives in Santa Rosa to escape
from the police. A strong bond is
forged between him and his niece,
Charlie (Teresa Wright) and this
is his eventual undoing.'
This reviewer however will ob-
serve a respect for the mystery
of the detective story and merely
remark that the intricacies of this
plot are peculiarly Hitchcockian.
What makes "Shadow of a
Doubt" a much better film than
Thornton Wilder's scripting might
indicate is the way in which the
film is constructed. Made in 1943,
"Shadow" established Hitchcock
as a director who had a style of
his own and who imposed on his
films his own personality.
Hitchcock has a vast cinematic
vocabulary. He uses this carefully,
with discrimination, to squeeze
-out each scene every bit of emo-
tion and excitement that he can.
"Shadow" shows Hitchcock's
technical virtuosity and perhaps
points out why and how he can
get away with his perennial use
of characters more stereotypic
than those genre pfeces can usual-
ly encompass.
Charles corresponds nicely to
the devil in the those old Amer-
ican melodramas, except that this
devil is handsome; Charlie to the
innocent young girl and the de-
tective (Jack 'Graham) to him
who comes and saves.
It is working in what Satre calls
"the sphere of generalities" that
Hitchcock plays the ring-master

conducting the weird, in a manner,
which at worst stresses Hitchcock's
own egocentrism, and at best pre-
sents neat allegories-wonderful
material for the critical game..
Thus we might consider Charlie
and Charles as two aspects of the
same person, a dialectic between
a view of the world as "a foul sty,"
and a world conceived as pure ,and

beautiful.
Finally we might note the im-
portance of this film within an
historical context. Hitchcock in-
troduced a great deal of material
into the ,movie, dialogue and brief
scenes, purely for the rhythm of
the film and without much regard
for furthering the storyline. This
was revolutionary for the time.

Glee Club,1Sparlides
With Humorous Style

By JILL CRABTREE
Eighty-six University men in
'white tie and tails stride onto the
Hill Auditorium stage. Or rather,
85 men stride. One comes racing
in at the last minute on a uni-
cycle.
The event? The 109th annual
spring concert of the University
of Michigan Men's Glee Club,
which played last night to en-
thusiastic audiences.
The impressive list of prizes that
the group has won, including the
male choir competition at the In-
ternational Musical Eisteddfod in
Wales, where they have twice been
victorious, leaves little for a re-
viewer to say. It is obvious that
the group is excellent. What re-
mains is to attempt to describe
the moods and humor of a Glee
Club concert.
The first number that the Glee
Club sang last night was their
traditional opening hymn, "Laudes
Atque Carmina." This is a song
about "Universitas Michiganen-
sium," arranged especially for the
club by their director, Philip Duey.
It was done in a standard choral
singing style, but nevertheless in-
teresting.
The following piece was the one
that really got the concert off to
a good start, at least from the.
standpoint of the performers. It

was :"Dona Nobis Pacem," a 16th
Century canon. The quiet peace-
fullness and controlled beauty of
the work was unfortunately mar-
red by the rustling and whispering
of latecomers.
The first half of the concert
ended with "Pollution" by Tom
Lehrer a very timely satire ("Just
go out for a breath of air-you'll
be ready for Medicare.")
The Friars, a . group of eight
members of the Glee Club given
to snappy chatter and well-done
slapstick comedy, were the high-
light of the second half of the
concert. They sang "Mr. Bass
Man," a Mutt and Jeff routine
in which the very tallest member
of the group attempts to teach the
very smallest member how to sing
"way down low." Their closing
number was "The Draft Dodger
Rag," a satire even more timely
than "Pollution.'
A selection of Michigan songs
ended the concert. These includ-
ed a song about "P-Bell booze" as
well as the more sedate alma ma-
ter songs. The audience began to
sing along with the "Victors,"
and by the time the director turn-
ed, around to lead them in "Hur-
rah for the Yellow and Blue," they
were already singing full force.
It was a sentimental end to a re-
freshing evening.

"A superb, gripping film .
tells a strong suspense story.
-INGENUE Magazine

By WILLIAM L, RYAN
Associated Press Special Correspondent
The forces in China supporting
the Mao Tse-tung view of Chinese
and world revolution appear to
scent total victory over their op-
ponents in the Communist party
and to be'headed for the show-
down phase of the 'Great Proleta-
rian Cultural Revolution."
For the first. time they' have
displayed enough strength to at-
tack the powerful opposition
through one of the most important
organs 'of the party press, the
theoretical journal Red tFlag.
A total Maoist victory would
have meaningful repercussions.
Inside China it probably would
mean a long period of austerity
under a regime akin to a military
dictatorship.
Chinese Isolation
Outside, it wduld mean con-
tinued isolation of China and the
end for the foreseeable future of
any chance of reconciliation with
the Soviet Communist party. It
could even lead to a formal rup-
ture.
The battle is not over, at least
in many of the hinterland prov-
inces, particularly those in the
north bordering on the Soviet
Union. Powerful men remain at
large who have been vilified by the
cultural revolution and who con-
tinue to have, evidently, impor-
tant support.
But in Peking, the dominant
pro-Mao group shows signs of
rising confidence. It has struck
openly, publicly and officially at
the chief foe, President Liu Shao-
chi.
The attack took the form of a
denunciation of "How to be a
Good Communist," a 1939 Liu lec-
ture issued as a primer for Com-
munists. It was recently reissued
to reflect anti-Moscow views and
"national" Chinese communism.

It has been clear for months
that the dogmatic, intensely anti-
foreign wing of the party was
headed by Defense Minister Lin
Piao, with the support of Premier
Chou En-lai. "Mao Tse-tung's
thinking" was its slogan, as if the
doctrine were more important
than the physical presence of the
leader himself.
On the other side were the
forces of President Liu and Teng
Hsiao-ping, party secretary-gen-
eral, allied with influential ele-
ments both in the party and the
armed forces. But Lin Piao, Chou
and their allies evidently feel they
can depend on the bulk of the
army leadership cadres.
This appears to mean that the
Lin Piao-Chou forces, behind the
facade of "Mao's thinking," are
striking out for total control, to
be enforced by the army.
Formidable Groups
Behind them is a formidable
group of fanatically anti-West and
anti-Soviet leaders:
Chen Po-ta, once Mao's private
secretary and ghost writer, now
Politburo member in charge of
the revolutionary purge.
Kang Sheng, long experienced
in secret police work, once pub-
licly praised, by Joseph Stalin, is
the Politburo member who "ad-
vises" on the purge.
Yeh Chien-ying, a general be-
fore Lin abolished army ranks, is
now a Politburo member and vice
chairman of the powerful Military
Affairs Commission.
Hsieh Fu-chih, vice premier and
chief of public security forces,
whose activities would be a key
to Maoist success.
Hsiao Hua, deputy leader of the
cultural revolution and its direc-
tor in the army as head of the
General Political Department.
Yang Cheng-wu, who replaced
the Lo Jui-ching, chief of staff of

the armed forces, whose opposition
was believed have brought the na-
tion to the brink of civil war last
July.
Chiang Ching, Mao Tse-tung's
fourth wife, now deputy chief of
the cultural revolution and adviser
on the purge to the army and in
cultural affairs.
All took part last week in a
Peking conference of "proletarian
revolutionaries" at which Chou
disclosed that the cultural revolu-
tion still was not ended and urged
total effort against "the handful
of party people in authority tak-
ing the capitalist road."
The official attack on President
Liu could be the opening gun in
a final phase of the struggle to
shape China's future.
