In a situation like this the accepted performers hold a definite advantage be- cause average buyers don't have time to fool around with a lot of unknowns when they can safely settle for a known product. But new bands do continue to make headway. Cat Stevens' guitar player, Alum Davies, has recently re- leased his first album called Daydo (Columbia KC 31469). As might be expected, the major in- fluence on the music is Cat Stevens who produced the album and also plays piano on it. The main trouble is that Davies doesn't have Stevens' skill of composition or singing. The play- ing is fine throughout, but noth- ing new comes to light. Prob- ably the most interesting song is "I'm Late" which comes originally from the Walt Disney adaptation of "Alice in Wonder- land." All in all, Davies is much better off backing up Cat Stevens than performing on his own. Mother's Finest (RCA LSP- 4790) is a band out of Atlanta which has really been paying its dues for the past few years; ac- cording to the liner notes "it seems like they've played every olace there is between Texas and Virginia." The band has worked hard and are a very tight unit. All members of the band know UTU RE"CAILENDAR FILMS - Cinema Guild shows Bresson's La Femme Douce tonight in Arch Aud, 7, 9:05; Cinema II shows Welles' Touch of Evil tonight at 7, and Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder at 8 in Aud.

The real trouble is that, although the band performs all their numbers flawlessly, there is nothing new on the album. This band is the type you might expect to go see at one of the summer rock concerts in Ann Arbor. The most enjoyable cuts are their versions of Dave Ma- son's "Feelin' Alright" which, although heavily overused, the band does admirably, and "Love the One Y6u're With" by Steve Stills which they probably do better than the original. Soft Machine is a British group that has a solid following in America ever since their ad- vent about five years ago. They are an unusual band because they have been saddled with at least a mild rock image in the United States, but reality they are almost pure jazz, making them one of the only young En- glish jazz groups to win any popularity in the rock world. They have two excellent soloists in Elton Dean who plays Alto Sax, Saxello, and Electric Piano; and Mike Ratledge who plays Organ, and Electric Piano. On this album, Five (Columbiab K 31604), they are joined by bas- sist Roy Babbington and drum- mer John Marshall, both recently of Nucleus. The album is not radically dfferent than their other recent ones, perhaps there is a bit more experimentation than previously. Whateve By TANIA EVANS If you ever wondered whether Odysseus had the right to dis- g-ise himself and sneak home after a 20 year absence, then you'll love Kurt Vonnegut, Jr's first play, Hapny Birthday, Wan- da June which opened Wayne State Universty's B o n s t 11 e Theatre season Friday. Vonnegut's play, first wrtten in the fifties and snce revised, is a come sa'ire on intellectual "truths" and precepts for "right" livng. The play concerns a mod- ern Odysseus. Harold Ryan, who, along with his sidekick, Colonel Looseleaf Harper, returns home after eight years in the jungle. At Ryan's behest, they surprise their families by arriving un- announced, Ryan's problems with the world and his self-image are absent from Colonel Harper, ex- cellently portrayed 'by Orson Wingo. In his first role on the Bonstelle stage, Wingo's per- formance is easily the funniest and most credible of the entire cast. He reveals a Vonnegut creation who gains our sympathy as a pathetic, vulnerable and caring individual Herb Shuttle, the vacuum cleaner salesmanand suitor for Penelope is played by Thomas Snackman. Shuttle is an imma- ture, hero-worshipping eagle scout who comes across in Spackman as a melba toast version of Humphery Bogart and Columbo.

Throughout the first and sec- ond acts, the audience registered their approval with literally un- controlled laughter. The cast, for the most part, skillfully handled the bantering dialogue. Vonnegait's thirds act, however," is far different from the rest of the play-in tone as well as quality. Without adequate trans- lation, the act begins an overly long wrap-up, rough in spots, and unconvincing. The script is not strengthened by the lead players most involved in the closing action. Roberta Dahlberg as Penelope Ryan simply "acts," anticipating lines and projecting studied re- actions. She damages the play as a whole by creating an unnatural distance between players. Nich- olas Calanni as peace-loving Woodley is adequate throughout the play until thethirdsact where he becomes so calm as to make 11 ARTS his presence a yawn. Dale Franks as Ryan did a beautiful job in the first two acts. He was forceful, natural and alive as only the blood-thirsty Harold Ryan can be. However, at the crucial moment when Ryan must realize his pretentious living and deal with the dissolution of self- image, not only does .the self- made hero dissolve, but Franks loses touch with his character. Our visitors from heaven add another superb dimension to the play, both physically and intel- lectually. They reveal a secular, shuffleboard-crazy paradise, thus bringing life to Vonnegut's fan- tasy other-world. Wanda June's innocence and gaiety are appar- ent in the performance by 17- year-old Ruth Fauman. Donald Dailey is superb as the nazi war criminal, the "Beast of Yugoslavia" Colonel von Konigs- wald. Dena Margolis is equally successful as Mildred, Ryan's third wife. 10:00 4 Night Gallery 9 CBC News 56 Firing Line 50 Lou Gordon 10:15 9 Religious Scope 10:30 2 Evil Touch 9 Rex Humbard 11:00 2 4 7 News Weather, Sports 11:30 2 Name of the Game 4 Wild Wild West 7 Movie "The Pink Panther" (1964) It's Peter Sellers in comedy about jewel9thieves. 9 rMovie "The Happening" (1967) Young kids out for thrills kidnap ex- Mafia hood.. 50 For My People 12:00 50 Man in a Suitcase 12:30 4 News 1:00 2 Grambling Football 1:30 7 News 2:00 2 Golden Gospel-Music 2:30 2 News monday 6:00 2 4 7 News, Weather, Sports 9 Eddie'sFather 50 Flintstones 56 Course of Our Lives 6:30 2, 4, 7 News 9 Jeannie 50 Gilligan's Island 56 Love Tennis 7:00 2 Truth or Consequences 4 News, Weather, Sports 7 To Tell the Truth 9 Beverly Hillbillies 50 I Love Lucy 7:30 2 What's My Line? 4 Mouse Factory 7 Let's Make a Deal 9 The Wacky World of Jonathan Winters 50 Hogan's Heroes 8:00 2 Gunsmoke 4 Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In UAC presents the world's largest Multi-Media Show THE BEATLES AWAY WITH WORDS 7 An Evening wish Edgar Allen Poe 9 News 50 Dragnet 56 First Edition: Tell It All 8:30 9 This Is The Law 50 Merv Griffin j 9:00 Here's Lucy 4 Movie "Cool Million" Pilot for n e w James Farentino series about a private detective who collects a million for each cage. 7 Movie "Battleground" (1949) WW II Battle of the Bulge. 9:30 2 Doris Day 9 Political Talk 56 Book Beat 10:00 2 Country Music Association Awards 9 News, Weather, sports 50 Perry Mason 56 Realities 10:20 9 Nightbeat 11:00 2 4 7 News, Weather, Sports 9 Cheaters 50 Johnny Mann's stand up and Cheer 11:30 2 Movie "The violent Ones" (1967) Sher- tff tries to save suspected murd- erers from lynch mob. 4 Johnny Carson 7 Movie "Walk on The Wild Side" (1962) A look at the sinful side of life in New Orleans.
