Shaw 's 'Misalliance

To Be Presented

George Bernard Shaw was a
man seen through many eyes.
And well he might be, for the+
famous English dramatist (1856-
1950) wore a great many robes in
his long lifetime.
The dark suited Shaw, as seen
by his friend Sir Max Beerbohm,
reflects the scathing dramatic
critic who shocked turn of the
century London with the herald-
ing of Ibsen, the mocking dismis-
sal of contemporary English au-"
thors and, of course, the birth of
his own stunning dramas. The
eyes blaze with wit and perhaps
a little of the fervor he displayed
as a political orator.
The eyes of political cartoonist
David Low's Shaw are those of
the comic dramatist. This is the
man who revelled in the high jinks
of plays like "Arms and the Man."
The wicked glint beneath the
brows of the rogue in the smoking
jacket testify to another facet of
his dramatic ability. This is the
Shaw who saw through so many
social, political and moral pre-
tensions and gracefully demolish-
ed them with the wit that always
accompanied him and his work.
It is difficult to pinpoint what
connotions the drawing from
"Punch" of the satirical satyr
Shaw bring to mind. Perhaps this
comes closest to capturing the
essence of the man's spirit and
talent. He was free, more than an
ordinary man, shocking whenever
he could be. The language of his
plays, from his first farces to the
high comedy of "St. Joan," is one
of the greatest triumphs of the
English speaking stage.

ers, was written in 1910 and is a
rare blending of all Shaw's talents.
George Jean Nathan, one of
America's greatest drama critics,
said of it, "It has more wit, humor
and vibrancy than nine-tenths of
the plays we see."
Prof. William McGraw of the
University speech department,
who is currently directing the Uni-
versity Players production finds
it a classic example of British
comedy, joining Shaw's imagina-
tive sense of fun with his typically
adroit philosophizing.
This opening production of the
University Summer Playbill will
be June 1-4 in the air-conditioned
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
As Shaw was seen in a great
many guises, he in turn saw deep-
ly into the human heart. "Misal-
liance" deals comically, but sen-
sitively, with the complex relation-
ships within a rather unique Brit-
ish family, complicated by the ar-
rival of Lina Szczepanowska, who
quite literally "drops in" when she
crashes her airplane through the
green house roof.
Lina is one of Shaw's most de-
lightful heroines, almost as out-
spoken and multi-faceted as her
creator. It is her wit, aided sub-
stantially by her womanly wiles,
that resolves the proposed misal-
liance that gives the play its
name.
Most Shaw plots are indescrib-
able. Their joy lies in seeing them
spun out on a stage. Suffice it to
say that "Misalliance" is fast and
funny, witty and warmhearted.
Tickets for "Misalliance" and
for the entire Summer Playbill
are available this week at thy?

WARD'S SURVEY-
Report Wide
DETROIT ()-An auto industry
trade publication reported last
night that car makers have cut
100,000 units from production
schedules for the three-month-
period ending July 31.
Ward's Automotive Reports said
the production cutback is in ad-'
dition to an estimated 175,0001
units it said were slashed from
production schedules two weeks
ago.
The report came at the same
time that American Motors Corp.
announced it was suspending as-
sembly operations Wednesday be-
cause of a lack of universal joints.
It said it was idling 13,000 hourly
workers at Milwaukee, and Keno-
sha, Wis., because of lack of the
components from a Dana Corp.
piant in Marion, Ind., which was
struck Monday.
AMC said 4,000 workers would
remain on other jobs.
Ward's did not break down the
reported 100,000-unit cutback by
company.
General Motors Corp. said it had
not changed its position since

ANAHEIM, Calif. )-JuSt sup-'

Would earthlings unite or wage

to kowtow to a more advanced

ferior" one? Suppose they had no

and responsibility? Might meeting

Chrysler Corp. reiterated its thran might a b caindon war

sembly plants at Newark, Del., and
Los Angeles for four days next
week.
Ward's said its latest projection
includes the loss of 13,000 Mus-
tangs because of a strike at Ford's
Metuchen, N.J., plant.
Ward's estimated car output this'
month at 800,000 units, second
only to the record 837,166 built in
May 1965.
It said June production would
be "robust" despite the reported

more advanced
technologically
well said.

In that case, also, he said, "it
is conceivable that man's civiliza-
tion will intensify the predisposi-
tion already visible toward creat-
ing a culture of frantic fun, whose
chief thrust will be toward in-'
tense participation in the immed-
iate-in music and the dance, in
affection and drama, in gambling
and in sport."
"Besides frantic fun there may
be a strand of emphasis on serene
repose, on meditation and with-
drawal from immediate participa-
tion with others." he added.
Subjugation?
Beings from another planet
might treat humans as industrial-
ized man has treated primitive

than ours, Lass-I

societies on earth, he said. They
might try to destroy or subjugate
the earth, or might help nations
on earth unite peaceably,
There are no persuasive grounds
for asserting that a higher form
of civilization will have greater
"aesthetic sensibilities exhibited
in art creation or criticism than
we have; or a keener sense of re-
sponsibility for giving deference
to the thoughts or feelings of
others," Lasswell said.
"It is not necessary, either, that
love occupies a significant place
in the lives of the new society."
If the other civilization was
peaceful, he said, nations of this

planet might intensify their
race. Each might try to be
to put the technology of
strangers to military use.
