President and Mrs. Harlan Hat- By DAVIM GELFAND I The ancient art of puppeteering,1 which never dies, is being used by, the University's Television Service tonight for a children's Christmas Show on Ann Arbor station WPAG-TV. Part of a regular series of puppet shows using a "Kukla, Fran and Ollie" type format, the speciall program will feature Peggy For- ward, '58, as story teller and Bob Barrett, '57, and Dick De Beck, '59, as puppeteers, The Christmas Show has a twistj not usually used in the puppet not usually used in the puppeteers regular shows. Usually Peggy starts to tell her story and is interrupted by Croc, Cuthbert, Pug and Grouch, the puppets of the show, They then go on to weave their own story while frustrating Peggy in her storytelling attempt. 'Christmas Spirit' For the Christmas Show, every- thing starts as usual, but instead' of telling a story, the puppets slyly get Peggy to leave for a moment. While Peggy is gone, they try to think up a gift for her. One suggests a robot. Another suggests a walking bear. A yellow sports car and a jack-in-the-box are also considered. But they can't agree on a gift. After Croc tells a story about a. giant who grows jelly beans, the I puppets decide to get Peggy a bag of jelly beans. At the end, there is a surprise for everyone, including certain members of the Univer- sity's television staff. Filmed Other Show The Forward - Barrett - DeBeck puppet trio has also kinescoped a Christmas show as part of the TV Service's regular series "Accent." "Accent" is a series of shows deal- ing with the various activities of several. University departments. The kinescopes of this show will be seen at later dates on television stations in Saginaw and Cadillac. The more standard format is used. As the program begins, the Storyteller, Miss Forward, is pre- paring to read a children's story. Plans Interrupted But her plans are interrupted by an unexpected visitor, an au- thoritative puppet names Croco- dilius Q. Reptilia. Croc insists on telling his own story, and invites three of his friends, a puppet, bear and rabbit to join him. After many quarrels about the plot line, the puppets finish their story -- and make an important discovery about human nature. Betty Walker, of the University's TV staff writes the puppet show. Production is by Larry Rosen, '57, and direction by Ron Bornstein, Grad. A&D Magazine On Sale Today "Dimension," the architecture and design magazine, will be sold today, tomorrow and Saturday in the lobby of the architecture build- ing. The independent student publi- cation will include articles of art criticism and representative art work by students and faculty. A graduate painting thesis on the philosophy of art by James Eldridge, Grad., will appear, as well as a senior architecture thesis by Dale Suomela, '56A&D. "Emotional Architecture," an article about Mathias Goeritz, a Hungarian sculptor, now living in Mexico, is featured. Accompanied by illustrations of the sculptor's work, this story coincides with the first showing of Goeritz's art in the United States. Extending its scope of material beyond' that of student art work, "Dimension" presents ideas of students and professors in related fields of art. These ideas are vital to the designer since he has to cope with them in serving society.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN TEN LEADING STORIES: Chief Headline Events of Past Year Reviewed --- (Continued from Page 1) threatened with forced integra- tion, and others passed interposi- tion laws. Despite the 1956 battles over politics and segregation, the United States enjoyed, and con- tinues to enjoy, a period of great prosperity. On the international scene, how- ever, things were far from peace- ful. Mideast Power Politics Undoubtedly the top world news story of the year was the play of power politics in the Middle East. Skirmishes had been going on constantly between Israel and her Arab neighbors, and that situa- tion appeared critical in itself. In July, however, the entire world was thrown into a furor when President Gamal Abdel Nas- ser of Egypt suddenly national- ized the vital Suez Canal, appar- ently in reprisal for the Western powers' refusal to subsidize the building of the Aswan Dam. The Western users of the canal, many .of which were threatened with economic collapse should the flow of oil from the Mideast be shut off, set up a Canal User's As- sociation, with the intent of in- ternationalizing the canal. The Association was formed in the face of Nasser's repeated and defiant threats and warnings. The crisis blew sky-high in October and November, when Is- rael invaded the Sinai Peninsula and the British and French launched an invasion of Egypt and. the Canal Zone. The United States and the United Nations brought heavy. pressure to bear on Britain and France, eventually forcing their withdrawal, which is still in pro- grt- subsequent Soviet intervention to crush it. The revolt began on October 24 as a peaceful demonstration in Budapest against the presence of Soviet troops in Hungary and the tight Russian control of the na- tion's affairs. Secret police, however, fired in- to the mob, and the revolt was un- derway. For a time, it appeared that the rebellion was a success, as the rebels gained control over much of the nationdand put Pre- mier Imre Nagy in power. In the meantime, the Russians moved a huge army of troops and arms into Hungary and opened a full-scale operation to stamp out the revolt. In a few days the Reds had slaughtered many thousands of Hungarians and regained pow- er. Moscow then put the present puppet government of Janos Ka- dar into power, and through it tried to restore "normalcy" to the war-torn country. Strikes and demonstrations continued, how- ever, and are still going on. Poznan Riots . . Another leading news story of the year also took place behind the Iron Curtain, in Poland. On June 28, Poznan, Poland, was the scene of the now famous "bread and freedom" riots against Polish subjugation to the Soviet Union and low living standards in the country. The riots erupted shortly after a small scale (by comparison with the Hungarian revolt) uprising. The result in this case was not so disastrous. Poland underwent a change of government, and ach- ieved some measure of indepen- dence from Moscow. Stalinism Denounced... An important contributing fac- tor in these rebellions, the event that probably made them possible, was the February speech of Com- munist Party leader N i k i t a Khruschev denouncing former Premier Josef Stalin and his poli- cies. The result was a move through- out most of the communist world toward "de-Stalinization", or the relaxing of the iron fist in favor of more gentle, more subtle methods of gaining and maintaining com- munist domination in the world. This brought about the disso- lution of the dread MVD secret police, and the relaxation, to some degree, of direct, forceful control of the satellites. The sudden denunciation of Stalin also brought widespread confusion in party circles in oth- er nations. Foreign Communists who had been devoted to the Stal- inist line suddenly found that they were out of step with the top eche- lon, and were at a loss to know what to do about it. Cyprus Dispute.. . Throughout 1956, the British were involved in a desperate strug- gle to hold on to Cyprus, a strate- gically vital Mediterranean base. This was prominent in the news until bigger happenings made it look insignificant by comparison, and it dropped off the front pages. The Cypriots, especially the Greek segment, were violently de- manding the removal of British influence and immediate union with Greece. The Turkish ele- ment of the population demanded union with Turkey, but were not so violent. There were constant reports of guerilla attacks and sabotage against the British, and of British retaliation. The counter-moves in- 'cluded patrol of the streets, strict curfews, widespread roundups and searches, and the hanging of cap- tured members of EOKA, the Greek Cypriot underground organ- ization. Andrea Doria Sinks .,.. The single most spectacular event not connected with armed conflict was probably the acciden- tal sinking of the $29,000,000 Italian luxury liner, Andrea Doria. The Doria collided in July with the Swedish liner Stockholm just a few miles out of New York har- bor. The Doria was coming in, the Stockholm was outbound. Thanks to unparalleled courage and cooperation in the rescue op- erations, only a very few lives were lost, and most of those were victims of the actual collision rather than the sinking. The leading role in the dramatic rescue was played by the French liner Ile De France, which took on over a thousand survivors. Nicaraguan Chief Shot In South America, one of ' e major news events was the assas- sination of Nicaraguan President Anastasio Somoza. Somoza was shot several times, but was at first reported not seriously wounded. His condition was later called critical, and President Eisenhower sent a team of American physi- cians and surgeons toassist in treating him, All efforts failed, however, and Somoza died on September 29, several days after the attack. His assassin was killed by the crowd just a few moments after he had shot the president. Sgt. McKeon Tried . . .' Looking back to the national' scene, another much-publicized story was the case of Marine Sgt. Matthew McKeon. McKeon was accused of leading a group of Marine boots on a night march into a swamp, where six of them drowned. He was later court-martialled and found guilty. The court sen- tenced him to a nine month prison term, undesirable discharge from the Marine Corps, and a fine. A review board later consider- ably reduced the punishment.

Meanwhile, in another part of Egypt. the Israeli army drove across the Sinai peninsula to the borders of the Canal. Israel claimed the invasion was designed to wipe out raider headquarters in the Sinai Desert, from which Egyptian patrols had been har- assing Israeli border settlements. There were reports, however. ' that the attack had actually been planned in conjunction with, and coordinated with the Anglo- French assault.
