A disreputable-looking crew of girls clad in tights and leotards and boys in sloppy shirts and jeans, as well as a few convention- al poking participants, are going through the rigors of shaping up the show, which will be presented Nov. 28 through Dec. 1, by Jack O'Brien, Grad, and Robert James. O'Brien wrote both book and lyrics, adapted from Ben Jonson's final comic masterpiece, written in 1614. James Supervises James, who wrote the score, sat on .stage during the rehearsal, su- pervising the group of singers who traying a group of aristocrats, led by Bartholomew, who spend a day at the fair, a carnival-like cloth market outside of London. These visitors are much too superficial and patronizing to see the evils of the fair-especially Justice Over- do, who wants to clean it up but meanwhile is himself pick-pocket- ed. On the other hand, there are the merchants, or rather the thieves, of the fair, pick-pockets and prostitutes all. Quarreling and petty, they are so rooted in their mercenary pursuits that they have lost the light and carefree essence of the fair. Everyone becomes a target for everyone else. Unsuspecting Bar- tholomew, meanwhile, carries on a blind love affair with the fair. Spirit High The exuberance of the musical was apparent even in rehearsal. Members of the 50-man cast ran, danced, leaped and performed var- ious other gyrations across the ballroom floor, occasionally collid- ing when someone miscalculated his moves. Several scenes were rehearsed in which the entire cast took part, a rather formidable group which sang loud enough to shake the sedate curtains in the ballroom. The rehearsal concluded with O'Brien issuing an ultimatum that the entire cast must be present for a rigorous schedule of work- outs the rest of the week. Harry Taxin, '64E, MUSKET general chairman, commented that the cast was so enthusiastic and pro- fessional that it didn't even need the usual pep-talks to keep up the morale. "I've never seen a show in such great shape less than two weeks before opening night," he said. "This production should be one of the top campus attractions of the year." Before becoming chairman of this year's MUSKET, Taxin held various positions in other student presentations, including S o p h Show and Gilbert and Sullivan. Plant Guards Rap Sanford Several members of the United Plant Guard Workers of America Union are demonstrating for an indefinite period near University buildings against Sanford Secur- ity Agency. Harold Pisarek, international representative of the union, sai1 U.P.G.W.A. had received com- plaints from some Sanford em- ployees that wages were sub- standard. Also, Sanford had failed to fulfill a promise to work out an agreement with the union, he charged. The University had its own plant guard until 1958, when it was disbanded. The guards work- ing for the University at that time were offered jobs with San- ford with wages at a dollar an hour less, Pisarek said. By MARTHA MacNEAL Five University officials joined a local and a national spokesman to discuss "The Technical Prob- lems of Transition to a Peace Economy" yesterday, following a lecture on "Accidental War or Programmed Prosperity" by Ar- thur Waskow of the Peace Re- search Institute in Washington. The lecture and the panel dis- cussion were sponsored by the Center for Research on Conflict Resolution. Participating in the panel were William J. Bott, of the Ann Arbor Chamber of Com- merce; Daniel C. Jones, president of the Institute for Arms Control and Peace Research; Gilbert Burs- ley (R-Ann Arbor), assistant di- rector of the Development Coun- cil. Also participating were Prof. James Morgan of the economics department and program director of the Survey Research Center: Norman S. Radin, of the Mental Health Research Institute; Nor- mon Thoburn, of the Institute of Science and Technology, and Prof.' Kenneth E. Boulding of the eco- nomics department, co-director of the Conflict Resolution center, who served as moderator. Bursley stressed the experience of World War II, during which MUSKET REHEARSES-An exuberant MUSKET cast prepares in the Union Ballroom for the opening of "Bartholomew Fair," to appear Nov. 28 through Dec. 1. The musical is based on Ben Johnson's comic masterpiece. PROGRAM NOTES,: Scientists To Consider Radioactivity the army had planned for eco- nomic reconversion and disposal of surplus facilities and services in transition to peacetime activity before the war ended. Such plan- ning, he said, was executed smoothly. He visualized state planning of a similar nature, probably through the legislative committee on eco- nomic development. Surplus funds from defense projects could be diverted into research. Thoburn did not feel that the arms race is likely to be limited soon. However, he said, the United' States economy is not strained as much by the arms race as is the Soviet economy; consequently we could expand peace research, par- ticularly through financing uni- versities to develop detailed rec- ommendations. Several Areas Radin suggested several areas of research which could utilize funds diverted from the arms race, among them the fields of, degen- erative diseases, including the de- velopment of sophisticated drugs for mental and genetic problems, and of water conservation. For the University particularly, he sug- gested a branch of the National Institutes of Health and a tech- nology school. Morgan cited the difficulty faced by a democratic society-"we don't like to push people around." He say two paramount problems, the development of mobility and flex- ibility in labor, and the need to make increased foreign aid cred- ible to most Americans. Likewise, because congressmen are dependent upon their con- stituents, Morgan stressed that the general populace must be con- vinced that the Soviets can be trusted before Congress can legis- late disarmament action. Tax Cuts Bott declared that "the consum- ers might like to have some money back" in the form of tax cuts when defense spending is de- creased. The research facilities of Ann Arbor, he said, would make the transition to a peacetime econ- omy particularly easy here. Jones pointed out that the latest United States-Soviet plans for dis- armament call for complete dis- armament in nine years and three years respectively, and likewise differ on inspection. He suggested that research programs could be utilized in solving these problems. The general tone of the panel was that conversion to a peace- time economy would be beneficial in the event of disarmament. DIAL 8 6416 Continuous Show Today from 1 P.M.

O'Brien not only directed the rehearsal but also did some chor- eography, sang and danced him- self and in general conducted the show at a rapid pace. One of the 16 leads, Thomas Jennings, '63, who plays Barthol- omew Cokes, Esq., stole the show at the rehearsal with his portray- al of the Peter Pan character, gul- lible and lovable, immensely ener- getic.
