1, THE MICHIGAN DAILY THURSDAY NOVEMBER 16, 1950 It GROUNDED GONDOLA: 'Gondoliers' Crew Try To Float Ship on Stage By WENDY OWEN A ship can float without water. At least that's the hope of the Gilbert and Sullivan Society's pro- duction crew. Alumni View FootballFilms Alumni who were not able to at- tend Michigan football games this season will not miss out entirely on the gridiron thrills. J. Stuart Finlayson, Michigan Alumni Association field secretary, is now in the East showing movies to various University alumni clubs, while Robert 0. Morgan has been traveling throughout the Middle West. Alumni clubs in Chicago, Long Island New York have seen movies this week. Kalamazoo, and Beacon, the football I THEY'LL HAVE a chance to test this theory during their pre- sentation of "Gondoliers" which will run Dec. 13, 14 and 15 in Pat- tengill Auditorium at Ann Arbor High School. But as yet the proper system for launching a non-seagoing vessel hasn't been figured out. The production men were call- ed upon at the beginning of the semester to produce a life-size gon- dola complete with flat bottom and stern which could conquer the waves of the Pattengill Auditor- ium stage with five passengers aboard. SO FAR all they've been able to do is construct the boat. The problem of floating it across the stage in a life-like manner still remains unsolved. The first attempts at seaman- ship were made with roller skates. The stage-crew fastened several pairs of skates to the keel of their wooden masterpiece and started pulling it across the stage in a trial run., * * * THIS PROVED unfortunate be- cause three cast members cut themselves on the tips of the skates which had promptly ripped through the bottom of the boat. The guiding line wasn't strong enough, either, and the boat pull- ed out .of the hands of the crew and rolled wildly across the floor. After abandoning the roller- skates, the group toyed with such projects as a miniature rail-road track across the stage, attaching bicycle wheels to the stage-side of the ship or hiring a horse to pull it. Though stage-crew members are confident they'll come up with a solution, society president Gary Hicks, '51, asked any campus gon- dola expert who has an idea for propelling the craft, to contact him at 2-0249. "We'll need a lot of people to push it," he confided, "if they don't work something out soon." Re s Fear U.S.-Siberia 'Move--Gale The threat of military action against Red outposts in Eastern Siberia could bring Russia, the United States' "implacable ene- my," to terms, according to Esson M. Gale, director of the Univer- sity International Center. "It is time that American pres- tige be once more restored, espec- ially in Asiatic countries," Gale said recently, speaking before the Men's Club of the Metropolitan Methodist Church in Detroit. The director, a former finan- cial adviser to the Chinese Na- tionalist government, urged that we should not allow victory to elude us now that "American military genius has once more sal- vaged the Pacific area from a powerful aggressor." "With one of the most power- ful striking forces ever assembled actually now on the East Asiatic coast and at the disposal of the United Nations, military opera- tions could be carried out with comparative ease from Korean and Japanese bases against lightly defended Russian posts such as Vladisvostok in Eastern Siberia," he said. Gale pointed out that "the mere threat to Eastern Siberia would be sufficient to bring the Krefinlin to terms" because of the showing made by UN forces in Korea. He warned that Russia would still be a menace if the UN accepts an inconclusive peace in Korea and withdraws, or places a puppet government in charge. Smith To Lecture On Labor Tonight Prof. Russel A. Smith, secretary of the Law School, will address the Pre-Law Society at 8 p.m., to- night, in the Hussey Room of the League. Prof. Smith will speak on "Labor Law." Plans to visit Detroit courtrooms and penal institutions will be dis- cussed at the meeting. More than one million dollars have been received 'for the Michi- gan Memorial Phoenix Project from the Project's combined fund- raising drives, Phoenix officials announced yesterday. "With more than $1,007,000 sub- scribed, the campaign has just started to gain momentum," Ches- ter H. Long, chairman of the na- tional drive said. * .* * HE NOTED. that with nearly 6,000 gifts contributed from Uni- versity alumni all over the world, his committee now feels justified in seeking substantial support from industry. "We have reached our first important milestone." As yet no really "big" dona- tions have been received from foundations or industry, al- though Phoenix officials hope a number will be on the way soon. The national drive was schedul- ed to close at the end of last month, but because some regional campaign chairmen had not been able to fully organize their work- ers by then, Lang extended the closing date to the end of this month. * * * LANG ANNOUNCED that Spo- kane, Wash. leads the nation in contributions, having received 135 percent of its dollar quota from 65 percent of all alumni in that re- gion. -Daily-Burt Sapowitch REHEARSAL-The University Choir, directed b y Prof. Maynard Klein of the School of Music, rehearses for today's concert in Hill Auditorium. The 160 voice group will be making its first appear- ance of the year. It will be accompanied by pianist George Exon, and will feature three soloists in the final presentation. Choir presents First Concert Tonight "Many local committees are still just getting underway. We expect big gains as the larger cities such as New York, De- troit and Los Angeles contact more of the alumni in their cit- ies," he said. At the same time studelit drive officials here said that the cam- pus campaign was off to a good start. During the first two days of the drive four house groups have turned in contributions from at least 80 percent of their mem- bers. The average pledge is $30, drive chairman Mary Lubeck, '51, said. Tomorrow 600 student Phoenix workers will begin the huge task of contacting every student who lives in the city outside of an or- ganized house group.
