Un-uniformed men took down 11-

'Star Sapphire Thief'."
"According to this sizzling litera-
ture, he's wanted by police bureaus
all over the world. And a huge re-
ward has been offered for the ar-
rest of this 'crafty and sly char-
acter' who specializes in the rob-
bing of homes and the taking of
only star sapphires."
THE SUGGESTED way of trap-
ping this light-fingered Lothario is
to identiiy his fingerprints which
he will carelessly leave on his sport
roadster at anytime, the pamphlets
continue.
"Listen to this - 'Idle ro-
mance? NO! This course can be
mastered by almost any person
of average intelligence and edu-
cation' in 15 months.'! Gee, what
a thrill! I can hardly wait to get
the prints of real honest-to-
goodness crooks," Joan sighed.
The "professional outfit" pro-
mised after only four lessons in-
cludes an ink roller, one plate glass
slab, fingerprint ink, a camel's
hair brush, a packet of fingerprint
cards, one package of cleaning
eotton and cleaning fluid.

"THEY REASSURE me that tui-
tion covers the purchase of this
big-time professional kit. But my
kid brother got a better deal than
this by sending in two box tops
and a dime to his favorite cowboy
recently," Joan said.
"This last paragraph is really a
journalistic gem. 'Law, medicine,
engineering - these are old-
fashioned professions and your
opportunity for employment in
one of these fields often lies in
replacing men already in the
work'."
"Ah-but the fingerprinting pro-
fession-now that's really living!"

By HARRY REED
For advocates of practical higher
education, the speech department's
handling of radio writing and act-
ing courses is often hailed as a per-
fect example of their ideal.
Making use of students in its
radio writing, directing and acting
courses, the department presents
13 shows weekly from its studios
on the fourthkfloor of Angell Hall.
* * *
IN THESE productions, student-
written scripts are generally ised,
which is unusual in college radio
work.
Most collegiate radio classes in
acting and directing draw on pro-
fessional manuscripts for their
broadcast training, but it is the
DP Petition

The Student Legislature is now
interviewing candidates for the

delssohn Theatre.

row at the Lydia Mendelssohn

philosophy of Prof. Garnet Gar-
rison, who is in charge of the radio
courses that student work should
be given preference.
Tracing a script through its
stages of development from assign-
ment to final recording and broad-
cast, gives an insight into the
practical experience students are
gaining from the department's
policy.
The 19 students in Speech 187,
Radio Writing, provide the original
scripts for the semester. They are
aided by a backlog from the past
semester's unused work, and adap-
tations are made by advance
classes. However, they have to stick
to a rigorous schedule in order to
keep this stockpile brimming with
good scripts.
Instructor Merrill McClatchey's
first assignment is a children's
script for the department's show,
"Down Story Book Lane." After
this, the class does one other gen-
eral script which may be any type
of show and the third assignment
is a TV script.
Last semester the class practiced
a "series" work by having each
member do an episode in an after-
noon adventure thriller, "Capt.
Hamilton of the Air Force."
Scripts are edited by McClatchey
and returned to the students for
revisions. After the author's final
touch up, the show is re-typed by
the department secretary and
copies are mimeographed for fu-
ture casting.
After scripts are chosen for pro-
duction by Prof. Garrison, students
are cast by Casting Director Bette
Fuller, from an audition file made
at the beginning of the semester.
Sound effects men, engineers
and directors are also selected from
the classes in these subjects, and
finally the entirely student-per-
formed show is rehearsed, tape re-
corded, and broadcast from one
of the local stations.
