opera, will be presented on today's

Michigan Television Hour.
Written by Edward M. Chuda-

an all student cast. The program
is telecast by WWJ-TV, channel
4, from 1 to 2 p.m.

AND IT wasn't a mere process
of letting imaginations run ram-
pant, according to Jeri Rich,
Grad., and Chuck Hoefler, '52, co-
chairmen of costuming. "Every
costume, from two billowy-sleeved
peasant blouses to the grotesque,
papier-mache horse-heads, has
important symbolism in the play."
The device by which Don Juan
is worked into a play concerning
a family of low-middle-class
Lithuanian immigrants is the
"dream sequence," which as
Goldstein puts it, "makes clear
the introversion of the charac-
ters."
The three-act drama will in-
clude -two such sequences, depict-
ing in modern dance the hidden
fantasy underlying the humdrum
life of the family. The choreogra-

COSTUMING for the ballet se-
quences required that each outfit
represent a particular desire of
the character and yet resemble
the real-life clothes he wears. In
one case, the teen-age daughter
Bea, who in Act 1 is fashioning
a plain white graduation dress,
turns up in the dream sequence
attired in a flowing, flounced
white gown, recognizable as the
dress she hopes to turn out on her
rusty sewing machine.
Tickets for "Live on Air" will
go on sale tomorrow at Lydia Men-
delssohn Box* Office, open from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

LSA Confab
To Be Held
On Tuesday
"The Value of Introductory
Courses" will be the topic of a
literary college conference to be
held at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in the
League.
Students, faculty and adminis-
tration will have an opportunity
to discuss the value of texts, cali-
bre of instruction and the desir-
ability of prerequisite courses.
* * *
SEVERAL alterations of Univer-
sity courses have come about as a
result of past conferences although
resolutions advocating specific re-
forms are never passed at meet-
ings, according to Jerry Warren,
'52, a member of the conference's
Steering Committee.
Warren pointed out that at
the Dec. 7, 1950 conference, the
topic was the counciling system.
Shortly afterwards, the Student
Advisors Program was instituted
by the University.
After another conference in
which an increase in foreign lang-
uage requirements was generally
advocated, the literary college fac-
ulty voted to approve the exten-
sion.
The conferences were initiated
in 1946 and after a temporary dis-
continuation were reactivated in
1949 by Deans Hayward Keniston
and Charles Peake of the literary
college. Last spring a steering
committee, made up of represen-
tatives of various campus groups,
was set up to arrange the confer-
ences and select discussion topics.

talk here, the actor will be off for
New York where he will start re-
hearsals as Katherine Cornell's
leading man in "The Constant
Wife."
The Cornell-Aherne team is
not a new one. The two have
played together previously in
"St. Joan," "The Barretts of
Wimpole Street," and "Lucrece."
An actor since the ripe age of
10, English-born Aherne started
his career in the London Garrick
Theatre.
Schoolwork temporarily cut in-
to his grease-paint work, and he
didn't come into prominence until
after he received a degree from the
University of London.
Hollywood has claimed a major
portion of the actor's energies
since 1934, but he has continued
spasmodic appearances on the
stage. More recently he has be-
come known to the television audi-
ences.
.Tickets for the lecture are still
available and will be sold at the
Hill Auditorium box office. The
price is $1.50, $1.20 or 60 cents.
