Rumor

Eight long years with tongue in
cheek
Of what he knew he did not
speak
Then temptation grew too great
And Galileo challenged fate.
As a scientist, as a man of con-
viction, and perhaps just as a
very pernacious personality, Gali-
leo Galilei would not be silenced
by seventeenth century social
pressure and determined instead
to introduce the knowledge he had
gained from his notorious tele-
scope
Bertolt Brecht uses the story of
this famous Italian scientist to
develop his study of freedom in
scientific inquiry in his play
"Galileo," which opens tonight in
Trueblood Auditorium, and will
run through April 10.
Presented by the University of
Michigan Players to climax their
1964/65 Playbill season, "Galileo"
is a dramatic-biography. Brecht,
considered one of the most in-
fluential minds of the twentieth
century, develops the problem of
scientific investigation opposed by
existing authority. Galileo must
decide if he is to. recant his
theories on the universe when they
area in conflict with the Church
and State.
Episodic
The play traces Gaiieo's life
from 1609 when he looked into his
telescope and found 'the solar sys-
tem, until 1642 when he died as
a prisoner of the Inquisition. Due
to this extended time span, the
play is necessarily episodic in na-
ture.
In posing a problem, the didactic
intent of the play is evident. How-
ever, this serious intent and emo-
tional., effect are lightened by
humanistic. humor :
Fret not, daughter, if perchance
You attract a wanton glance ...
Lovely woman still may be
Careless with felicity.

The rumor that local landlords
had pressured the administration
into raising rents at University
Terrace has been going around
for over a dozen years and has
never been substantiated by fact,
Lawrence Phillips, Grad, member
of Graduate Student Council, said
yesterday.
According to the schedule of
rates at University Terrace apart-
ments, the past rent raise was in
1963 and consisted of an increase
of three dollars on one and two
bedroom apartments. This was the
first raise in rents since 1959.
Chester Malanosk, manager of
University apartment facilities,
said in an interview that he did
not anticipate any rent increase'
for next year.

Proud New Address

University Players' performance
Trueblood Auditorium at 8 p.m.
Directing "Galileo" is Dr. Wil-
liam Halstead of the speech de-
partment. In attempting to at-
tain , the impact of a Brechtian'
"epic theatre" presentation, Hal-
stead is employing a great many
special theatrical devices in the
present production.
Few Actors'
The use of a few actors to play
several completely different roles
with little or no costume and
make-up changes, the use of
scenic projections, and the tech-
nique of having actors address the
audience directly are intended to
complement the didactic intent
and emotional effect of the play.
Further enhancing the overt +

of the Brecht play will be in
theatricality of the production is
the multi-level setting on the
semi-Elizabethan stage in the
Trueblood Auditorium. The stage
has been designed for the produc-
tion by Prof. Calvin Quayle of the
speech department. Also indicative
of the play's theatricality is the
fact that twenty-four actors are
portraying nearly seventy different
roles. Costumes for this cast have
been provided by Prof. Zelma
Weisfeld of the speech department
The text of the play is an adap-
tation by Charles Laughton who
collaborated with Brecht on the
first American production of the
play in 1947 when Laughton play-
ed the title role.
