LOOK and LISTEN With ALAN LUCKOFF ,'21~s ~Ig4 Because most of us are only a few years out of high school, we are often attracted to the radio and TV shows which supposedly dramatize the petty trials and tri- bulations of teen age youth that we fondly remember. Usually we watch these shows once. We watch them and try to decide if it's possible that some of these weird, unbelievable incidents, took place in our lives week after week, a few years ago. COLLEGE STUDENTS' memor- ToBe ReFaith To Be Rdeligion ies are not so short nor their con- tact with teen agers so limited that they accept the facts of Hen- ry Aldrich and Homer, Archie An- drews, Corliss Archer, and espec- ially Judy Foster, the girl with the date, as normal or average. It is an accepted fact among those who write for any com- municative media that the most effective writing is that which touches on things which are most familiar to the listeners and viewers or which provide them with desired vicarious ex- periences. The object of these programs is supposedly the latter. The only one of these shows that ever came close to it was "Aldrich Family" when Clifford Goldsmith first adapted it for the air from his Broadway hit, "What a Life," in 19.39 with Ezra Stone playing Hen- ry. But Goldsmith ran out of plots in radio several years ago and the TV version never has "had it." THE JUDY SHOW and the Cor- liss Archer show are built around the ridiculous adventures of gig- gly, stereotyped girls with fawn- ing henpecked boy friends, Maybe the solution is for some enterprising sponsor orunetwork' to hold a contest for true stories of teen agers. They'd probably turn out just as funny, almost as complicated and a whole lot eas- ier to swallow. {zi COLLEGE SHOP - \ {4'r "N.J 4..'. . t.: i Ik k Series Theme -Daily-Jack Bergstrom SHOW BUSINESS-Carole Eiserman, '52, shortens Bill Schrein- er's, '55, gown, and Don Ghareeb, '54, fans on as the Union Opera cast prepares to prove that it's "Never Too Late."

For the first time in the 32-year history of Union Opera, coeds are invited to take part in the pro- duction by designing and making some 50 costumes to be used in this year's extravaganza. COSTUMES FROM overalls to 'U' Foreign Enrollment Up Enrollment of foreign students at the University has climbed to 751 for the spring semester as compared with 726 registered at this time last year, Robert B. Klin- ger, assistant counselor to foreign students, has reported. Sixty-seven areas are represent- ed, Klinger said, with 'the largest groups coming from the Far East, British Commonwealth of Nations, Europe and Africa, Near East and Latin America in that order. , A breakdown of figures shows that Canada, China, India, Tur- key, Iraq, Japan, Thailand, Co- lumbia, Philippine Republic, Bra- zil, Great Britain, Greece, Hong Kong, Mexico, Venezuela, Korea, and Nigeria have each sent 10 or more students to the campus. Altogether there are 43 state- less or "displaced" students here with 41 of them coming from countries "behind the iron cur- tain" evening gowns to western cowboy suits !have been designed for past Union Opera shows by masculine hands. Creating elaborate vaude- ville attire and huge, zany hats will be the job of the coed costume department this year. Fabulous hat designers as well as inexperienced seamstresses are needed to work on these costumes. A complete sewing room has been set up in Rm. 3-G in the Union for the cos- tume assembly where coeds will be hemming and pinning every week day from 3 to 5 p.m. until show time. "Where else can coeds meet 125 talented men on campus than at the Union," states costume di- rector Carole Eiserman when ask- ed what advantages were in store for the coed "Unionites." * *~ * MISS EISERMAN has gathered many ideas for costumes in her Association with the Little The- atre in St. Petersburg, Florida, and the Universityof Denver. She is now a graduate student in the University speech department and a director for the "One Act" bills. The production is slated to run March 27, 28 and 29 at the Michi- gan Theatre.
