Pla .Production to Preset

By PHYLLIS WILLAR
"The Shadow and the Rock" a
1950 Hopwood-winning play by
James Murdock has been chosen
by Play Production for its open-
:ing presentation in this year's
drama season-.
Murdock, a reporter on the
"Lynchburg Advance" of Virginia,
is in Ann Arbor to supervise the
production of the play. Under the
direction of Prof. Valentine
Windt, the speech department will
present "The Shadow and the
Rock" from Oct. 30 to Nov. 3.
The play, "a drama of the Maine
Coast," involves the struggle be-
tween a~ mother, the Rock of the
title, and her dead son, the Shad-
ow.
Murdock had the idea for the
play in mnind for a few years, but
the actual writing only took him
six days. "I spent 12 hours a day
of 'concentrated' writing," he said
with an ingenuous smile.
The play developed from its
spectral form into its state of
substantial success while Mur-
dock was studying for his M.A.
in creative writing under Prof.
Roy W. Cowden, retired chair-
man of the Hopwood Awards
Committee.
Coupled with his program in
writing, the playwright took
courses about the Near and Middle
East. This led to tht creation of
a novel, "Kettle Shalom," which
is now being published by Ran-
dom House. The scene is set in a
battalion area in Palestine. Al-
though he never has been there
himself, Murdock lived in a simi-
lar climate and says with (the
shrug of an army veteran, "I lived
in a battalion area and so I guess
I know what it's all about."'

NO NOVICE at producing suc-
cesses, the native of New York
B~ng Irama
State won three awards for writ-
ing in his freshman year at Lynch-
burt College, Lynchburg, Virginia.
In his senior year ne was given an
award for his outstanding contri-
bution to creative writing at the
college.--
There have been times when
laurels have not come pouring in.
While he- was in the army, be
wrote a novel and laughs, "It was
so bad, it was almost good." And
he is trying to gorfet a one-act
play about murder, which he now
humorously labels, "my first melo-
drama .. . a bright and chearful
piece."
The young writer is currently
working on a novel about the St.
Lawrence Plateau region where he
spent his childhood. "It is not go-
ing to be an autobiography," he
explains.
