MARCHIO For some people Canterbury House is a place to buy coffee and find excellent entertainment. And it is, partly. Last night the coffee house went into its second 'year, and students had to be turned away because of the limited capacity. But the new year will see some changes in operation. Now the coffee house is open all three nights of the week- end. It will also keep the same coffee and donut hours during the week from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. A series of noon movies will also be provided; and one weekend will be filled with three nights of double features, all starring' Humphrey talk about Michael Cooney.

And Canterbury House likes o -h This weekend, Michael Cooney sauntered in from his last blow- out in Cambridge. Wearing a genuine smile and a comfortable outfit, he proceeded to amaze the audience with his versatility, vir- tuosity, personality, and original- ity. In other words, one doesn't ple so much that they can't help responding. And this is where the coffee house stops being just a coffee house and takes on the aura of a warm home. Rev. Daniel Burke, Chaplain says, "It is unfortunate, really, to conclude what we are doing Russian Leaders Scrutinize Soviet Educational System "And we plan to gather all of this up in worship which, because of our circumstances, will have the accent on instructive experi- mentation." Regarding the experimention, the Canterbury House hopes to provide some interesting masses later on in the year, including a possible jazz, folk and rock 'n' roll mass. The liturgy will remain the same. Also planned for this year is a "Come All Ye," where students may read their poetry, sing or whatever. This will also serve as an audition. An unusual production took place last night in the Arena Theatre. The drama was not the central point of attention, how- ever. It was the idea behind the production, an idea that found its incipiency between two stu- dents of the theatre who shared a beautiful passage. And the love for the passage grew into a love for the play in its entirety. The enthusiasm spiraled as others be- came interested. Together they forged their way into production. First of all, they called them- selves the Porch Players, stem- ming from location of their first few meetings. From this volunteer spirit emerged a bond of talent and friendship and love for the theatre. The seed of their creativity jus- tified the whole effort. Their cause, "The Cave Dwellers" by William Saroyan, is an artful play without being absurd. Saroyan makes several strong points, strong but not harsh. This is the beauty of the play. Despite the crude dwelling of the displaced humans and a bear, and despite their anxiety at being "nothing involv- ed in nothing," they remain sensi- tive people, living in the midst of fear and hate. Each has sought the shelter of the stage to buffer himself against the retaliation that "if I've lost my art, what good is my shoe." But they do realize it, and in the end they accept it.' Yet it is the actors and not the act that must receive the applause. The duke was a champ. And the rest of the court deserved royalty. The play makes its second ap- pearance this evening at 8 p.m. Perhaps this time they will have time for a well-deserved encore. Phone 482-2056 A 1 INEASTMANCOLOR®,*, Shown at 7:40-11:45 ALSO ...

Required Program Information: 663.5 MOSCOW (P)-The Soviet lead-1 ership expressed concern todayi about the quality of higher edu-i cation in this country and ordered steps to improve it.l The Soviet press published a re-1 port on decisions enacted by the ruling Central Committee of the1 Soviet Communist Party and -the Cabinet, speaking of "serious shortcomings" in the training of specialists in science and other fields at Soviet institutions of; higher education. The shortcomings were not1 spelled out. But the importance of the problems was underscored by the fact that the leading party and government organs took steps1 to contend with them. One'of the key steps. in the view of diplomatic sources here, was an order designed to tie university research more closely to the day- to-day needs of Soviet industry by encouraging university officials to enter into contracts with indus- try on practical research projects. The university would be al- lowed to keep 75 per cent of the profits from the contract and in- vest the proceeds in university programs. Only sketchy details were given on the other measures ordered, but they included these general moves: -Increased investment in re- search and other facilities. Each Soviet government ministry was authorized to invest the equiva- lent of $2,775,000 a year in uni- versity training programs for spe- cialists in its field-for example the Ministry of Health for medical specialists. -Improved training for teach- ers and higher requirements for teaching posts.' -Increased teaching staff. -Prizes and other incentives for outstanding student work. -Increased control by the Min- istry of Higher and Specialized Secondary Education on the quali- ty of training programs at insti- tutes. -More leeway for university rectors to decide where research funds should be invested and the right for some to start university publishing houses. The report said "the most im- portant task" is "to improve the- quality of the training of special- ists." At the same time. steps were taken to improve ideological train- ing in Marxism-Leninism and to increase party control over this field of education. These two points underlined a difficult problem for Soviet au- thorities. Many of the country's brighter students are choosing work in scientific fields where there is less stress on ideological training and where they are given more free- dom to pursue their own interests. Scientific training is given by experts whose field of knowledge extends beyond the scope of party workers. Authorities have been unhappy about the lack of ideo- logical training given scientific specialists. Fewer top students are being at- tracted by work in the social sci- ences, which stresses ideological training and prepares students 'for party and government posts. Fri- day's report said special institutes would be set up at four major Soviet universities to raise quali- fications of teachers in the social sciences ' ..___________ ____________'. .. .w . .s THE BLACKS Genet's provocative and frightening play . pro- duced by the Department of Comparative Literature with an all-Negro cast.
