'Excursion' Fog Horns And Bells
Present Sound Effect Problems

Ticket Sale Will Be Held'
From 10 A.M. To Noon,
2 To 6 P.M., Daily
By MARIAN SMITH
The necessity for perfect coordina-
tion and timing in producing the!
sound effects for "Excursion" has
presented a problem of considerable
difficulty to the "back stage" staff of
the play.
Whitford Kane, guest director and
male lead in "Excursion," declares
that the sound effects are really more
important than the play itself, be-
cause the impression of the entire
setting must be gained before the
action will be appreciated. The dif-
ficulty lies in producing various
sounds simultaneously-whistles must
blow while bells clang and water laps
the prow of the S.S. Happiness.
James Moll, '39, is in charge of
the sound effects and has been
equipped with innumerable record-
ings of all possible sounds heard in
New York harbor, an improvised fog
horn and two turn' tables with which
he is strugling to produce the neces-
sary sound at the proper time. I
Valentine B. Windt, general direc-

tor of the play, comrhented on the
rehearsals as proceeding rapidly. He
described them as being handled in
"chaotic" order.
Sale of tickets will be held from
10 a.m. to noon and from 2 to 6 p.m.
every day at the box office in the
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Prices
of the tickets are 35, 50 and 75 cents.
The better seats for Ahe Thursday
performance and Saturday matinee
will be available at a lower price, Mr.
Windt announced.
Extra Tickets Requested
For Wednesday Concert
All students, faculty and towns-
people who are not going to use their
Rachmaninoff concert tickets are re-
quested to turn them in to Miss Mc-
Cormick at her office in the League.
The tickets will be distributed to
students who can use them.
'CURRENT ROSE' FOR SOFTNESS
Those who prefer the softness of
the lighter nail polishes or who have
just decided to look sweet and fragile
after a summer of playing, may be
interested in a delicate shade of
lipstick and rouge called "Current
Rose.

Dick Jurgens and his nationally
known orchestra will provide the
music for the third annual En-
gineers' Ball. They have previously
been featured inkthe Gold Coast
Room of the Drake Hotel in Chi-
cago, as well as in the Palomar
Ballroom in Los Angeles and the
Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Fran-
cisco.
Dr. Chih Meng
To Give Lecture
On ChinaToday
Dr. Chih Meng, director of the
China Institute in America, will pre-
sent a public lecture on "The Present
Crisis in the Far East," at 4 p.m. to-
day in the League Ballroom, it was
announced by Prof. J. Raleigh Nelson,
counselor to foreign students.
Dr. Meng, who is internationally
known, comes here under the auspices
of the newly organized committee on
Chinese relief in Ann Arbor. This is
an organization composed of faculty,
townspeople and students interested
in China.
The organization was effected at a
mass meeting a few weeks ago in the
Methodist Church at which Prof.
Charles E. Remer, Dr. Willis Brown
and Dean Searles, of Toledo, spoke.
