A Play Production double bill, fea-
turing Clifford Odets' one-act play
"Waiting for Lefty," and Moliere's
"The Doctor In Spite Of Himself,'
will open a four-day run tonight al
the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
The cast for "Waiting for Lefty,'
announced yesterday by Valentine B
Windt, director of Play Production
includes five newcomers to campus
dramatic productions. These stu-
dents are Robert Campbell, '38, whc
will take the part of Dr. Barnes;
Frederic Densmore, '36, as the gun-
man; Ross MacPherson, '36, as Mil-
ler; Geraldine Elliot, Grad, as the
stenographer, and Edith Folkoff, '36,
as Edna.
Others who will appear in the
Odets play are Charles T. Harrell,
Grad., as Harry Fatt; Edward Jurist,
'38, as Dr. Benjamin; William Iver-
son, '37 as the industrialist; Karl
Nelson, '38, as an actor; Jean Green-
wald, '37, as Florrie; Carl Nelson, '37,
as Joe Mitchell; William Soboroff,
'37, as Sid Stein; and Ralph Bell, '37,
as Irv.
"Waiting for Lefty" deals with a
New York taxi drivers' strike, making
use of the melodrama of the situa-
tion as a weapon for social criticism.
It is revolutionary in technique, re-
verting to the form of the old minstrel
show.
The other production on the bill,
Moliere's "The Doctor in Spite of
Himself," a satire on the medical
profession in seventeenth-century
France, will be directed by Harrell,
who will also play the leading role
of Sganarelle, the wood-cutter. He
also took this part in the production
when it was presented last summer by
the Summer Repertory Players.
Three other members of the current
cast are taking the same parts which
they took in the first production,
Ruth LeRoux, '36, as Jacqueline; Carl
'Nelson, '37, as Thibaut; and Truman
Smith, '36, as Gironte.
Other roles will be taken by Helen
Jones, '37, as Lucinde; Miriam Sauls,
'38, as Martine, the wife of Sgana-
relle; Jack Porter, '37, as Leandre;
George Sipprell, '36, as Perrin; Vau-
die Vandenberg, '36, as Valere, Fred
Shaffmaster, '36, as Lucas, and Ed-
win Mack, Grad, as Monsieur Robert.
The performances will begin at
8:30 p.m., and a Saturday matinee
will be given at 3:15 p.m. Tickets
are priced at 35, 50, and 75 cents,
and 35 and 50 cents for the matinee.
Movement To Left
Prevails I.Senate
(Continued from Page 1)
ers were anything but the Liberty
League type of reactionary. That
exception, a man who announced
himself as a Republican, ,contended
that the real issue was between the
G.O.P. standard-bearers on the one
hand and the Democrats and "other
radicals" (Socialists and Commun-
ists) on the other. There was not
much applause after this speech.
The sole woman student speaker of
the evening, Margaret Newnan, '36,
pointed to Martin's pro-Republican
remark that good planks of third
parties end up in the G.O.P. or Dem-
ocratic platform as a reason for sup-
porting the Socialist party.
Although a number of the faculty
were present, the discussion was a
purely student one. Remarks of those
in attendance leaving the ballroom
indicated that the idea of a Senate
is a popular one and that a sizeable
attendance at its next meeting, ten-
tatively two weeks from last night, is
assured.
During the course of the debates,
Adrian Jaffe, Grad, spirited Com-
munist advocate of a Farmer-Labor
party, advised students to watch for
the appearance of a Farmer-Labor
organization on the campus soon.
