COVER STORY Page 1 Rising radicalism With sit-ins, vigils and marches, a growing group of student radicals is demanding a less secretive University. This week's cover story looks at their right to overcome Pentagon influence on campus, apathetic students, and their own image as throwbacks to the 1960s. Cover photo by Doug McMahon.

Ann Arbor, MI USE THIS TONGUE AS A COUPON 8 40875 Plymouth Rd., Plymouth - Just West of 1-275 Good Mon.-Fri. 2 Weekend/Septeniber 30,.1983 -- - - - - -- Last year "it was like beating your head against a wall trying to get people to join," says Marx. But this fall, five or ten new faces have been showing up at each of the group's weekly meetings. While oder members welcome new recruits, it means that PSN can no longer ust meet in someone's living room. "It is going to change the gro a lot," Braine says. "The size of the group now means that we can't reAlly have the kind of closeness the kind of group friendship that we had last year," she says. "The old people will always be frien- ds, I think, but the new people will find it much harder to fit into that... and that could make it seem like there's a con- trolling clique of some kind which wouldn't be good." A GROUP of PSN members ather on the Diag for an afternoon vigil, an LSA junior who identified him- self only as a "strong Republican" looks on. - "(It) looks weird to me," he says as he watches the group hand- out PSN literature. This type of response might have discouraged a PSN member last year, but with a growing disarmament .movement and students snatching up PSN fliers, there's a bit more op- timism. "Thirty students aren't going to change an administration, but we can register our protest and maybe we can get other people to think," says Braine. "At least if you're doing something you're not despairing... that gives you a -feeling of self-respect and it takes away some of the helpless (feeling)." Sparks is a Daily staff writer. Sul RIVALS (Continued from Page 9) strengthening its dramatic elements as well. Julia and Faulkland, for example, are portrayed as older people to make their relationship more meaningful. There's a big difference between losing someone in your 20s and in your 30s," explains Stern. "In your 30s, you may have lost forever. We've played a lot with ages in this show," Stern said. "It's a gamble, but I think it's paid off." The setting also has been modified, transferring some interior scenes to ex- terior, which should give a stronger in- pression of the Bath, England locale. An interior scene could be anywhere; what we looked for was a strong, local influence," said Stern. In this he seems to have succeeded. Included in The Rivals are pool scenes, scenes set to contemporary music, and even scenes set to contemporary food. With both the set and the script, diversity appeared to be the major ob- jective. The Rivals switches from laughter to tears and back again, carefully avoiding a lapse into predic- tibility."The range is exciting," ex- plains Stern. "You don't know what will happen. That was the power of Shakespeare." Stern's careful direction and the vivacity of the script should combine to create a lusty, entertaining, and ac- cessible play, which is the right com- bination for a MET opener. This year the Michigan Ensemble Theater is not only offering the best by way of theatrical entertainment, but they're also offering you, the student, a real bargain-if you purchase your ticket for any MET preformance at least a week in advance you get two for one. Unfortunately, this offer is subject to availability, so make your plans soon so as not to miss and of this year's MET preformances. .
