Hearings, the early
morning place to be
WASHINGTON iPi - At the
White House these days, the
tourist line starts around 9 a. m.
Across the street at the Washing-
ton Monument, visitors queue up
about 7:30.
But to be first in line most
days at the Watergate hearings,
be there before 6 a.m. And un-
less you're chummy with a sen-
ator, related to a witness or sec-
retary to his lawyer, once in-
side, it's standing room only.
SINCE THE televised Senate
Watergate hearings bega almost
two months ago, they've become
Washington's latest tourist at-
traction, drawing almost 1,000
persons a day.
Students, housewives, business-
men, tourists come in droves,
dressed in everything f r o m
shorts and blue jeans to design-
er dresses and three-piece suits.
Some profess a genuine interest
in the workings of government.
Others are just curious or want
to say they've been there.
There is an ornate marble
hearing room in the Old Senate
Office Building, just across an
intersection from the Capitol.
Once the regulars are packed in
-Watergate committee staffers,
the witness and his entourage
and the press - there's space for
250 spectators, as the guards
say, "all the way to the rear
please."
TIlE REAR location offers an
excellent view of the backs of
300 heads. Rarely does the pub-
lic get close enough to view
Comedy of
Errors to
be shown
The University Players' Reper-
tory company will open its sum-
mer season this evening by pre-
senting Shakespeare's The Com-
edy of Errors at the Power Cen-
ter. Ctrtain time is 8:30 pm.
Tickets are available at the
Power Center box office Monday
through Friday from 12:30 to 5
pm. and until showtime on eve-
nings of performance. Tickets
cost two and three dollars; some
season tickets are still avail-
able.
TOMORROW the company will
perform Mrs. Warren's Profes-
sion, George Bernard Shaw's
play about women's liberation
and prostitution. These plays will
alternate in repertory at the
Power Center through July 28.
Shakespeare's classic comedy
of mistaken identity promises to
provide a fun-filled evening for
all. Director Fred Ollerman has
chosen to give the play an un-
usual twist.
The production will view the
world as a gigantic toybox com-
plete with fireworks, teetertot-
ters, tin soldiers, and little red
wagons.
MRS. WARREN'S Profession
combines some of Shaw's light-
est comedy with telling remarks
concerning women and their role
in society.
Other works to be staged by
the repertory company this sea-
son include Cat on a Hot Tin
Roof and The Roar of the Grease-
paint, The Smell of the Crowd.

Chairman Sam Ervin's dancing
eyebrows or close-ups, such as
the flush on John Mitchell's
fleshy face.
But it's not unusual to find
crowd - pleasers mixing with the
public. Singer John Lennon and
his wife, Yoko Ono, have been
there. So have entertainers Carol
Channing and Ginger Rigers. Few
tourists, however, recogize cur-
ly - haired author Norman Mailer
who can usually be spotted lean-
ing against one of the white mar-
ble columns at the side of the
room.
For ' exhibitionists and demon-
strators, the hearing room is a
natural forum. One man announc-
ed his candidacy for president of
the United States during the first
week. <
BUT DESPITE inconveniences,
the crowds come, many declaring
they want to be a part of history
in the making.
"It's very historical," said
Howard Kupferberg, 28, a real
estate man from Commack, N.Y.
"That's really why I wanted to
come. But the only way you could
see Mitchell or whoever is testify-
ing is if Ervin would hold up a
mirror."
"You can't see anything," said
Olga Pingor of Rahway, N.J. who
was attending the hearings with
her husband, Frank. "We got
here at 5:45 a.m. and we're in the
last row. It's very unfair." Was
it worth it?
