BEHIND CLOSED DOORS:
University Club Quiet Amidst Bustle

IFIE&Dr

By JAMES BOW
Persons passing the south side
of the Union may see a door
topped with a canopy and marked
with the words 'University Club,
Members Only."
Those eligib'e to pass through
the door as "members only" are
all male members of the Univer-
sity faculty and administration.
The dcor hac been there for 19
years, silent in the bustle of acti-
vity which surrotnds it in the
neighboring Un-n, West Quads
ritg-e and Trte.ational Center.
Behind the door, dark-paneled
walls greet visitors not coldly, but
quietly, and dim lights in the
chandeliers add a reserved flour-
ish to the rooms.
Gaies Room
Or the first floor is a games
room with fcur billiard and five
pool tables. When a few mem-

bers play bottle pool at the first
table Arthur Marsh, club steward,
"officiates" from behind the desk
near the door.
He explains the intricacies of
bottle pool, played with a leather
cone placed on the table and re-
calls the recent faculty-student
billiard tournament in which the
faculty won "hands down."
Beyond the games room is the
dining room where approximately
100 of the club's members bring

their trays from the Union cafe-
teria to spend their lunch hours.
There are two ways to get to
the second floor of the University
Club - one is by the paneled
staircase and the other is the
more adventurous journey via the
small elevator.
The intruder must be wary,
however, for the elevator journey
will carry him up to the Union
and outside the University Club.

Union, there is a door also labeled
"University Club, Members Only."
Distinctive Touch
Stained glass panes add an ex-
tra touch of distinction to this
door. Behind itis the main
lounge which is complete with
fireplace, high ceiling and paneled
walls. A library, is situated be-
yond the main lounge.
According to Prof. Ernest F.
Brater of the engineering college,
president of the University Club,
the organization was founded "to
provide a means for informal as-
sociation of faculty members of
various colleges and schools of
the University.
At present there are about 700
members. Prof. Brater notes that
a committee is working on a plan
to build larger facilities for the
Club.
Musket Starts
New Honorary
Powder and Horn, musical and
dramatics honorary, has recently
been granted official status by
Student Government Council.
As the University's first honor-
ary society organized to include
both men and women, Powder
and Horn will "honor those who
have done a deserving job in all
facets of MUSKET."
Tom Lewy, '58, honorary presi-
dent, described the organization's
goals as "assisting MUSKET and
the University in public relations
and arousing interest in this type
of show."
Lewy mentioned a proposed
gu,-st speaker program which
would feature persons from vari-
ous fields in dr 4,rna and music
wbc would "instrlact members in
producing shows.
"High caliber dramatic presen-
tations throughout the campus"
was stressed by Lewy as.chief pur-
pose of Powder and Horn.
Shows for veteran's hospitals,
skits to be presented at the Uni-
versity and road tours are also
under consideration.
The name Powder and Horn
has a two-fold meaning, Lewy ex-
plained. Powder represents back-
stage make-up or the dramatic
aspect of the organization and
Horn represents the orchestra, the
honorary's musical influence.
In addition to Lewy, officers of
Powder and Horn include Jane
Holben, '58, Vice-President; Sandi
Sol, '58, Treasurer; Tom Cleve-
land, '57, Secretary.
Other charter members are Don
Medalie, '57BAd; Sara Schwartz,
'60; John Moore, '58E; Marvin
Starman, '58; Sandra Beer, '58;
Frank Knox, '57; Judy Tatham,
'57Mu; and Chris Pyrros, Grad.

By BEVERLY GINGOLD
Latin and Greek may be "dead",
Prof. Frank O. Copley of the Clas-
sical Studies department admits,
"but that doesn't make these lan-
guages any less fascinating."
"Latin should be studied first of
all for its own sake because it
is interesting and fun," the dy-
namic Latin professor said, "and
then for the numerous utilitarian
reasons for studying the lan-
guage."
Prof. Copley has made Latin
and Greek his life's work for 30
years.
He explains that for any serious
student of law. history or philo-
sophy, Latin proves invaluable
since it was "the official language
of diplomacy" before the 18th
century and most of the learned
writings of the early modern
period were in Latin.
Literary Value
For the youthful-looking classi-
cist, the interest and fun of Latin
and Greek is in their value as lit-
erary languages.
He discussed with animation
the most recent product of his
enthusiasm for Greek and Latin
poetry, "Exclusus Amator, A Stu-
dy in Latin Love Poetry."
In his book, published last fall,
Prof. Copley traces the "rejected
lover" theme, or paraclausithyron,
from its origin through its subse-
quent development in Greek and
Latin poetry.
According to Prof. Copley, the
paraclausithyron began as a
"boisterous street ballad" sung by
a drunken young lover on the
doorstep of his mistress' house
after he had been locked out.
The stock theme kept reappear-

ing with its basic elements intact
first in Greek and later in Roman
poetry, b e c o m i n g successively
more refined and complex.
Sorrow and Suffering
"The Greeks used the para-
clausithyron for a song to express
the sorrow and sufferings of the
rejected lover," Prof. Copley ex-
plained, "while the Romans great-
ly embroidered the standard
theme with psychological and
erotic connotations, making it a
vehicle for complex love prob-
lems."
The Latinist's most recent ef-
forts have been devoted to trans-
lating the poems of Catullus, the
the first century B.C. Latin poet.
"Catullus," Prof. Copley re-
marked, "in his day was consid-
ered a most radical poet, using
subjects never before used in poet-
ry. He wrote everything from the
most beautiful lyric love poetry
to the coarsest gutter doggerel."
The translation, now being pub-
lished by the University Press, will
be available next year.
Translates Comedies
Prof. Copley's translation ef-
forts began about seven years ago,
when during a lull in the school
year, he began translating from
the Latin several comedies by
Plautus and Terence "simply for
the fun of it."
This bit of "frivolity" unexpec-
tedly led to publication of the
plays by the Liberal Arts Press.
The professor admitted modestly
that he was surprised and rather
embarrassed when the plays were
used in several Great Books
classes.
"The plays are rather frothy
and their literary value is less
than their historical value in the
development of European come-
dy," Prof. Copley remarked.
French and Italian plays were
greatly influenced by these Latin
comedies. Moliere, for example,
used themes from Plautus in his
'*0; John Moore, '58E; Marvin
even Shakespeare's "Comedy of
Errors" was adapted from a theme
of Plautus.
