"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'."

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 Date Extended The Student Legislature has ex- tended the petitioning deadline for the Campus Displaced Students Committee until Friday. Students interested in joining the committee may obtain petitions at Lane Hall or the Student Legis- lature Building. The Student Legislature is now interviewing candidates for the committee. French Club Play Le Cercle Fran ais will present the threeact con edy, "Game of Love and Chance" by Marivaux at 8 p.m. tomorrow in the Lydia Men- delssohn Theatre. Tickets priced at 74 cents may be purchased from 2 to 5 p.m. today and from 2 to 8 p.m. tomor- row at the Lydia Mendelssohn box office. 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.
