T H E MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, MAY 12 1948 ALL HANDS ABOARD: Pinafore Will Dock on Campus for Three Days By HAROLD JACKSON If Gilbert and Sullivan were still alive, chances are they'd be right on deck keeping an eye on their investment when "HMS Pinafore" sparkles across the stage of Pattengill Auditorium be- ginning at 8:00 p.m. tomorrow for a three day engagement. The stirring musical saga of "The Lass that Loved the Sailor" Renaissance Music, Dances To Be Shown Dr. Cuyler To Give Introductory Speech The first performance in this country of authentic Renaissance and Baroque dances and music will be at 8 p.m. tomorrow in the League Ballroom. Preceding the program a lec- ture, "Secular Music in the Late Middle Ages and Renaissaice" will be presented by Dr. Louise Cuyler, Associate Professor of Music Theory, at 3 p.m. Thurs- day in Rackham Lecture Hall. The even s are sponsored by the University ixtension Service and the Michigan State Federation of Women's Clubs in connection with the 16th annual Adult Edu- cation Institute being held on campus from May 12 to 14. The musical program will in- clude a suite for small orchestra, a group of English and Italian madrigals sung by the Madrigal Choir under the direction of Wayne Dunlap and Donald Plott, a Bach sonata played by Sara Cossum on the viola and Jean Farquharson at the harpischord, and two 17th century pieces by Lowes and Merula, arranged by Wiley Hitchcock and played by Miss Cossum, Miss Farquharson and Elizabeth Lewis, viola. Traditional 15th, 16th, and 17th century dances, including the Basse, Branle, Pavane, Passamez- zo, Dompe, Galliard and the Cour- ante will be performed by modern dance students. Dr. Juana de La- ban has done the choreography and Dr. Cuyler has arrangedithe music. All performers will be dressed in costumes of the pe- riod.

University. which has caused a student stam- pede on the ticket booth in Uni- versity Hall all this week is prob- ably one of the most pirated plays in all stage history. Several Versions Given Before there were such nuis- ances as copyright laws no less than eight different companies were presenting their versions of "Pinafore" in this country at the same time. In 1878 the authors came over to straighten things up, and their official "Pinafore" opened with Sullivan conducting and Gilbert singing in the sailor chorus to keep an eye on the stage business. While tomorrow's Pinafore won't have Sullivan himself on the podium, it will feature the able conducting of Rex Wilder, grad- uate student in music who with Prof. Harry Allen will be out to beat their brilliant direction of the "Mikado" earlier in the year. All-Student Production Wilder will have plenty to work with in the line of musical talent. Besides directing the special 20- piece orchestra he'll direct the eight leads and a massed chorus of over 40 voices. The all-student cast has been in almost cqntinuous rehearsal this week in preparation for the opening night. Costumes have arrived, and dress rehearsal is planned for today. The cast was overwhelmed by the elegance of the costumes, ac- cording to Jim Schneider, public- ity chairman. The only question- able note raised by the sponsors of the Gilbert and Sullivan So- ciety was the extreme sheerness of some of the women's costumes, but this problem was solved by dimming some of the stage light. Ticket sales continue today through Saturday in the booth outside Rm. 2, University Hall, and will also be available at the Pattengill Box office before each performance. U' Concert .. . (Continued from Page 1) strument staff who will solo in the number. Kalinnikov's "Symphony No. 1 ip G minor" which critics describe as "permeated with the joy of liv- irig," was paradoxically written by Kallinnikov while he was dying of tuberculosis. At the modern extreme of the gamut is "Concerto in Jazz," an English composition which em- ploys swing rhythmis. It was played by the University Band for the first time on its spring tour. Ann Arbor concert-goers will hear it for the first time tonight when Floyd Werle, a music school freshman from Billings, Montana, solos it on the piano. The concert, which is free to all, also presents a cornet trio, "Trip- lets of the Finest" by Henneberg as welll as several other varied works. World Peace Lecture Stopping off on a nation-wide tour, Miss Muriel Lester, noted London social worker, will lecture on world peace at 8 p.m. Friday in Kellogg Auditorium. The lecture is sponsored by the Inter-Coop Council and the Stu- dent Religious Association. Dur-- ing her stay on campus, Miss Les- ter will be the guest of the co- operative house named in her honor. Opera Position Still Unfilled council Searching For Finance Head Students to petition for the position of the 1948 Union Opera are still badly needed, Dave Ley- shon, Executive Council chair- man announced yesterday. Leyshon termed "very encour- aging" the number of men who have visited the Student Offices of the Union between 2 and 5 p.m. to submit petitions for the Opera and make appointments for in- terviews. "Competition for all perman.. ent jobs on the administration, production and financial staffs is still wide open, and we will con- tinue to take petitions through Friday," he said. Leyshon emphasized the valu- able financial experience to be derived from working on the bud- get, appropriation and various other financial phases of the 1943 Union Opera. "I'll be glad to talk over the possibilities with every interested student," he said. Hospital Program To Be presented A student nurse will interview Miss Rhoda Reddig, director of the School of Nursing and the Nursing Service, in a special pro- gram to be broadcast twice today, at 2:45 p.m. over WPAG and at 3:30 p.m. over WKAR. Rachel Shields, nursing student, will query Miss Reddig on "Nurs- ing as a Career," in the radio ob- servance of the yearly event. V Political Club Alphabet (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the last in a series of articles on student political groups.) By FR.AN IVICK FILLING OUT THE LIST of politically active campus clubs are those which back various programs regardless of the candidates sup- porting them. Largest of these non-partisan groups is the local American Veterans' Committee. Headed by Dave Babson, 175 AVC members are conducting a campaign to "Make every Vet a voter." "AVC is concentrating on getting the veterans registered to vote," Babson said, "and is trying to work more independently of other or- ganizations. If any group should ask us to support their particular candidate, we'll have to refuse. The only points we're allowed to de- clare ourselves on are specific issues." THE LOCAL INTER-RACIAL ASSOCIATION, which works in close cooperation with the NAACP, will only support those candidates who actively fight discrimination, rather than advocating more racial tolerance, according to Miriam Levy, IRA leader. "We're supporting FEPC, anti-poll tax legislation and Tru- man's Civil Rights proposal," Miss Levy, a Wallace-Backer, de- clared. "We're also trying to put the Michigan Diggs Act into force, and we oppose the Callahan Bill." The 150-member IRA is now concentrating on a civic program to fight discrimination. Last summer the group organized a large anti- lynch rally, and picketed barber shops which had shown racial d:is- crimination in serving Negroes, Miss Levy said. "We've decided to do no more picketing at present," she said, "while we try to find a more rational method to do away with dis- crimination. We still don't denounce picketing as a final measure." * * * * ANOTHER LOCAL DIVISION of a national club is the United World Federalists, a non-partisan group whose 85 members are di- rected by Harry Blackwell. The organization concerns itself with only those issues which will influence the prospect of future world government. For this reason, the group is urging the passage of House Resolution No, 59, Which will expedite a change to a stronger United Nations, according to Blackwell UWF favors ERP, so long as there are no political strings at- tached to the aid, Blackwell said. "What is most necessary is world law and justice, which can be achieved through world government." v Daily-Moore. PURCHASE AWARD WINNER-Artist Richard Wilt, architecture school instructor, is shown here in his Willo* Village studio with "Generals' Victory Dance," a war satire.

His lecture is 'expected to be of interest to physicists, engineers and mathe- maticians. * * * * LIVING REBUTTAL: Art School Instructor Paints Campus Scene, Wins $100 1+ ,4/k/,4r/.. Smokers Report By BOB LENSKI and BOB DILWORTH - A living rebuttal to the old quip "... those who don't know, teach,"' artist Richard Wilt, architectural school instructor, is steadily gain- ing his place in the world of art. Having entered the competition recently sponsored by the Indiana' State Teacher's College, Indiana, Pa., Wilt was awarded a $100 pur- chase prize for his painting "Pep Rally," an interpretation of cam- pus pre-game enthusiasm. The winning way is not a new thing to Wilt. His paintings have taken prizes in exhibitions spon- sored by the Associated Artists of Pittsburgh, American Contempo- rary Artists, and Allied Artists of West Virginia. Although Wilt finds that his' teaching duties in architectural design, drawing and water color- ing take much of his time, a size- able stack of finished canvasses completed "since Christmas" in- dicate he has spent idle hours. Moody Backgrounds Wilt's Willow Village apartment at 1721 Darby Court is filled with examples of his almost haunting style. Wilt terms his wark as "semi-abstractionism" because his character, peering from vague mood-setting backgrounds, have sharply etched faces. "Generals' Victory Dance," said Wilt, is the celebration of the gen- erals on the dawn of victory, danc- ing against a background of the shambles of war. Wilt implies its satirical theme when he asks, "What right have generals to claim victory on their own mer- its?" He turned to another painting which he calls "College Humor." "That kid selling the Gargoyle," he said, "he has a nice open face! but is the standard type - you know, the typical campus funny- man. And the girl behind him with the new look-her pretty face [VET CHEKS Checks being held for the fol- lowing veterans at the Ann Arbor Post Office will be returned to Columbus on May 22: Robert W. Baker, Paul E. Cairns, Irving J. Hershen, Alan J. Howell, Donald J. Merchant, Arthur B. Merrill Jr., Nancy Catherine Pear- son, Raymond A. Signs Jr., Rob- ert Junior Spillman and James E. Wilson. is a dull grey because she is the obvious type-no depth." Strong Social Implications Strong social implications run through most of Wilt's art. His paintings depict people from chil- dren to the aged, with the charac- ter of each revealed by the lines and color of his face. Asked to interpret other pic- tures, Wilt declined with, "Artists shouldn't do that. What the ob- server reads into the picture - that's what it means. There isn't any right or wrong." The prize winning "Pep Rally" will go into a memorial Council of Indiana State Teacher's College, Wilt said. Wilt was graduated from Car- negie Institute of Technology, in fine arts. He taught art for one year at the University of West Vir- ginia before coming here last Sep- tember. c G i I L aI when yousmoke PHILIP MORRIS!
