EDITOR'S RIGHTS.
When the Ohio Appellate court
reversed a contempt of court con-.
viction of two Cleveland editors, it
upheld an historic right of the
American people-freedom of the
press. This phrase is by no means
a trite one, but retains all of its
original vitality and deep signifi-
cance for which the American peo-
plye fought.
The opinion of the court is of
particular moment in view. of the
recent attempts at suppression of
facts in metropolitan newspapers
and at universities throughout the
country:

"We live in an age of pitiless
publicity where the freedom
of the press and freedom of
speech are paramount issues,
and newspapers should have
the right to print what they
please, always guiding them-
selves by the laws of libel. A
free people must have a, free
press and a newspaper should
have the right to speak freely
its views."

TONIGHT: In the Mendelssohn
Theatre the Hillel players present
the last performance of "Capon-
sacchi" by Arthur Goodrich and
Rose Palmer.
CAPONSACCHII
A Review by William J. Gorman.
Praise with faint (tending to be-
come loud) damns seems to be the
only reviewing solution here. The
will towards some beauty of con-
ception and elevation of pitch is
welcome and deserves praise. The
Hillel Players chose a poetic drama
(which had the same will towards
beauty) for their dramatic debut.
They seemingly went to the utmost
expense to give the play its proper
dress in the way of both sets and
costumes for in these aspects the
production is the best on campus
this year. But unfortunately the
production (also the play) fails
quite miserably.
The main faults lie in poor di-
rection. Small bits, unimportant in
themselves, are allowed to go un-.
perfected with the resulting ruin
of whole scenes. Norman Fleisch-
man as a drunken pseudo-wit cart-.
wheels around the stage in Leon
Errol circular leg evolutions; unin-
tentionally of course, it is a musi-
cal comedy diunk introducing a
farcical note quite inharmonious in
poetic drama. Similarly, Melvin
Benstock, as Canon Conti, in Act
I, scene II sticks his head out of
the curtain where he is hiding
when he hears his name mentioned
unfavorably and makes a clownish
face, eliciting quite inappropriate
and not too sympathetic roars.
Then, the' most noticeable flaw of
all, preventing quietly excited per-
ception of a scene otherwise quite
well done, is the utter inability or
ridiculous burlesque (one didn't
know quite which) of Lucille Gross-
man as Marinetta the inkeeper's
wife. In this same scene when
Pompilla faints, there is an imma-
ture, awkward stage picture of
Caponsachhi holding her, yet con-
tent to let her partially uncom-
fortably droop. These are all
minor perfections and their enut-
meratibn seems like quibbling; but
they absolutely prevent convincing
projection of the play's interest, a
bit shaky in the writing anyway.
More generally, the usual ama-
teur difficulty with blank verse, the
unnecessary preoccupation and
hesitation over phrasing in the line,
tended to slow the production's
tempo. The carnival scene with its
almost countless entrances and ex-.
its should have been played as rap-
idly as possible for disguise but
wasn't
The principals were quite capable.
Harold Sedar in the difficult title
role, stylistically twisted with a lot
of Browning's spiritual-analytical
pother, had a sincere and careful
approach. And on the whole
(though he tended to have a jerky
style, doing everything in so many
steps and gestures) he was success-
fill; giving the" play with admi--
able support from Berenice Solo-
mon several good Dantesque love
moments. Maurice Lazar was
properly loud and strutting as
Guido the villain in the operatic
style. Incidentally, Rosalie Gold-
stick in a minor part as Pompilia's
mother in the last scene was quite
impressive.
Nothing last night was really
perfect except those intangible
things that floated around the the-

atre-aspirations. These were very
clearly good and certainly deserve
encouragement with the one sug-
gestion about the need of good di-
rection.

Freedom of the press is abso-
lutely essential to a nation such as
the United States, for democratic
self-government is an illusory term,
at best, an ideal as yet far from,
attainment and possibly unattain-'
able where such a large population
is concerned. The palpitating,
sycophant press, afraid to express
its real views, is failing the com-
munity which it should serve, and
usually abets corroption in the gov-
ernment.
\The situation here at Michigan
is unusually salutary, for suppres-
sion is practically non-existent.
This is most unusual in cases in
which an organ for the expression
of opinion is so slosely connected
with an organization that has con-
trol over it, such as the University
