ment of military science and tactics,
drillmaster, and Herbert G. Watkins,

program is under the direction of
George Irwin, '43.

Blue" Bird'
Has Peculiar.
PropT rouble
Strange indeed are the problems
confronting Helene Herzfeld, '42,
properties head for Play Production's
forthcoming presentation of Maeter-
linek's "The Blue Bird."
Faced Cith the curious necessity
of finding not only a live bluebird,
but also daisies an4, aples as big as
tables, Miss Herzfeld is, to say the
least, slightly puzzled.
In addition to such properties, she
must see to the making of hundreds
of organdy lilies for a *graveyard
scene. These must be constructed in
such a way as to spring out of the
tobstones in a cloud of smoke, and
all this at a moment's notice.
One of the other principal unsolved
problem is this: the play calls for
a grou'p of bircds, black of color and
happy with life, to be transformed
in. a trice to birds, blue of color and
deader than proverbial doornails.
Now, how can it be done without
making somebody a dastardly killer
oi defenseless animals?
4 The list of overwlelming require-
*ments does 'not even end here. It
seems of vital importance that some-
where the group obtain a life-size
stuffed cat and a dog of the same
variety. Anyone who thinks that -this
last prcblem is simple will be wel-
/ come to so say, providing they can
help Helene out of her predicame:it.
