Six figures distinguished in the field of drama will join the Michigan Repertory Players this Summer Ses- sion. Incorporated twelve years ago into the schedule of Play Production, the summer theatre work will be aug- mented this year by Charles Mere- dith, Whitford Kane, Alexander Wyc- koff, Evelyn Cohen, Claribel Baird, and Nancy Bowman. Meredith, director of the Dock Street Theatre of Charleston, S.C., will be on the campus three weeks to direct one production for the Players. Whitford Kane is an outstanding Broadway actor, at present billed with Katherine Cornell in "The Doctor's Dilemma" in New York. During this play's vacation, Kane will come to Ann Arbor to direct one play. Among his Broadway experiences are "The Pigeon," "Shoemaker's Holiday" and "Excursion," and he has been the First Grave Digger in practically ev- ery important production of "Hamlet" in New York in the past 20 years. Professional scene designer, in- structor in stagecraft and art director Field Station ill Provide Biolo,yyWork Facilities At Douglas Lake Include 4,000 Acres Of Forests, Flora A pleasant summer on the shores of Douglas Lake plus an excellent op- portunity to do field study in ad- vanced zoology and botany - such is the program offered by the Univer- sity Biological Station for students interested in advanced biology work. The Station, opening in June, is lo- cated on the University-owned Bo- garus tract, which ocupies an area of more than 3,900 acres between Burt and Douglas Lakes in Cheboy- gan County. The region is particularly suited as a biological station, for it is a transition region between the coniferous forests of the north and the deciduous hardwood forests of the south, and presents types of veg- etation characteristic to both regions. Swamps and bogs in various stages of development ocupy much of the lowland. The flora of these areas is northern and includes numerous or- chids, the insect catching plants and dwarf mistletoe. Seventy miles to the south, near Grayling, is located a tract of virgin pine, known as the Hartwick Pines, which give the rare- opportunity of studying such a forest in its original condition. Ecologist's Field Day The ecologist and taxonomist will find a field day in Wilderness Park, bordering Cecil and Big Stone bays to the west of Mackinaw City. Here, in addition to large dunes and bogs, are second-growth coniferous and hardwood forests which have for more than 60 years escaped the ravages of fire, thus allowing ground con- ditions to return to normal. Dunes are also located at Stur- geon Bay and Little Traverse Bay, while those at Sleping Bear, 100 miles to the south, are the firest in Amer- Ica for study. The large number of aquatic and terrestrial birds, as well as the ani- mals, make the place a paradise for cne zoologist. The numerous bogs ano swamps provide a natural habitat for a large number of species. The fauna of the Great Lakes Region is represented by the 68 species of fish found in the lakes 9nd streams. An opportunity to study breeding behav- ior and embryology is offered by cer- tain species of fish which spawn dur- ing July. For the ornithologist who wishes to get up at five and listen to bird calls and study the feathered denizens, over 170 species of birds have been identified in the region near the sta- tion. The camp itself covers about 30 acres of level ground and adjoining hillsides near Douglas Lake. The buildings of the station are arranged in three areas: the general campus with laboratories and other such Famous Actor WHITFORD KANE reads the career of Alexander Wyc- koff, head of the design department and director of stagecraft in the Phil- adelphia Museum School of Indus- trial Arts. Wyckoff has been art di- rector of the Michigan Repertory Players for eight years, designing buildings, and two residential groups. There is a health service unit with a dispensary, hospital and residence for the physician in charge On the cam- pus there are nine laboratory build- ings, an aquarium, library shop, club house, insectary and administration building. Camp equipment inclades outboard motorboats, launches, rowboats, trucks, seines and nets. The bird col- lection of the campus has over-700 specimens, and a large stock of ani- mal skins, skeletons and specimens are included in the museum. But midst all this study and re- search, recreation is not forgotten, for a large field is provided for base- ball, and the lake offers excellent opportunities for boating, swimming and diving. The spacious clubhouse provides adequate facilities for less vigorous summer recreations. most of the plays given here each summer. Evelyn Cohen, who in her non-pro- fessional capacity is Mrs. Alexander Wyckoff, has been the costumiere of the Michigan Repertory Players for six years. During the winter sea- son she does professional costume de- signing and making in New York. Mrs. Claribel Buford Baird is pro- fessor of speech at the Oklahoma College for Women. For eight sum- mer Sessions she has been with the Michigan Repertory Players, as stu- dent and then as instructor. During her first summer as an in- structor at the University, Miss Nan- cy Bowman will be in charge of the laboratory theatre production. She is at present director of dramatics at the Mount Clemens High School. Michigan Repertory Players will again this year produce six plays and a musicale. All performances play' Wednesday through Saturday nights in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Assistant Prof. Valentine D. Windt will serve in the capacity of director of the Players, with Assistant Prof. William Halstead as assistant direc- tor, Robert Mellencamp as assistant art director, Emma Hirsch as as- sistant costumiere and Mrs. Lucille Walz as treasurer. Season ticket sale will begin Wed- nesday, June 25, at the Lydia Men- delssohn Theatre boxoffice. On August 11, 12 and 13 the De- partment of Speech will hold its sec- ond Speech Conference for the bene- fit of teachers on can-pus and dele- gates who will come to Ann Arbor for instruction in speaci. pedagogy. Guest speakers at the Conference will include Dr. Charles R. Strother, di- rector of the Speech and Psychologi- cal Clinic, University of Iowa; Dr. Earl McGill, casting director and di- rector of broadcasts, Columbia Broad-' casting System; Prof. Bower Aly, Uni- versity of Missouri; Prof. Clarence Hunter, Ohio Wesleyan University and Orof. Norwood Brigance, Wabash College, Crawfordsville, Indiaan. For the first time during the en- suing Summer Session graduate cred- it will be given to advanced students who will spend the summer at the National Speech Correction Camp, The work of an institution like the University Museum cannot be limited to a few months during. the. regular Fall and Spring terms, but is con- tinued into the Summer months. Within the various divisions, many important research problems are de- veloped and field surveys of winter investigations are carried on. The dif- ferent branches of the museum em- brace piatural history, anatomy, arch- aeology, ethnology, material medica, industrial arts, chemistry, fine arts, and history. These exhibitions are arranged for the convenience of stu- dents and visitors and are easily ac- cessible for those interested. The main portion of these collec- tions are housed in the University Museum which was completed in 1928. Included in this building are the divisions of zoology, botany, paleon- tology, and anthropology. Facilities are provided for research work of graduate students. Hooper Plans Trip This summer, Dr. Emmet T. Hoop- er,, Assistant Curator of Mammals, is planning a trip to Virginia and West Virginia to study the distribu- tion and ethnologic relationships of the mammals of that area. This re- search work will occupy the larger portion of his time. Dr. William H. Burt, Instructor in Zoology, and Curator of Mammals in the Museum of Zoology, will travel in Michigan collecting information on the local mammal fauna as ad- ditional material for his handbook on Michigan mammals which he is now preparing. The Division of Great Lakes of the Museum of Anthropology, with Emer-' i 1 f 1 , son F. Greenman as Assistant Cura- tor, expects to'return -to the North end - of -the Georgian -Bay, Ontario, to continue excavation on sites which have undergone some examination in previous seasons. Each of these three sites is connected with elevated beaches of Lake Huron, making it possible to date cultural materials recovered. The period of human oc- cupation represented is suggested by geological means to lie between 1100 and 10,000 years ago. The work is done by students enrolled for two months during which the members of the expedition live in tents. Manitoulian Area This work has been carried on in the Manitoulian district since the summer of 1938 in coperation with the National Museum of Canada at Ottawa. The materials that are re- covered are brought here for research purposes and eventually data will be published on the completed work. Re- sults of the expeditions consists of field notes, maps, photographs and specimens, chiefly implements of flints and quartize. Most of the staff;of the Museum of Anthropology will remain here continuing their research work. Dr. James B. Griffin, Assistant Curator of Archaeology and Research Asso- ciate in the Museum of Anthropology will study the Indian pottery collect- ed in Missouri, Arkansas, Dr. Fred- erick R. Matson, Assistant Curator of Ceramics, Museum of Anthropology, will continue chemical research work on pottery of northeast and eastern United States to determine how pot- tery was manufactured, whether the wares were made locally or imported and to investigate fully the history of potters art in those regions. The University Museum located at the intersection of Washtenaw Avenue and E. University Avenue houses a number of varied divisions which include natural history, anatomy, archaeology, ethnology, materia medica, industrial arts, chemistry, fine arts and history.
