All University students are urged to use the reading list of books from the period of the 1920's. The list covers five viewpoints of the period: political, historical, eco- nomic, literary, and sociological. Sign-up lists for the program will be in the residence halls, sororities, and fraternities by May 21. Any other students interested may contact Mrs. Ruth T. Calla- han, administrative assistant to the Dean of Men, Student Activi- ties Building. The committee hopes to have an estimate of the student interest by May 25.' Program Informal Emphasizing the informality of. the program, Seasonwein said that" early in the fall semester a panel discussion will be held by faculty from. each of these fields. At present, Prof. George A. Peek, Jr. of the political science depart- ment, Prof. Theodore M. Newcomb of the sociology department, Prof. Edwin A. Engel of the English de- partment, and Prof. Harold M. Levinson of the economics depart- ment have consented to work with! the program. Committee Chose Books The committee, Seasonwein states, has chosen the basic books for the list. These are: Frederick L. Allen's "Only Yesterday," Ar- thus J. Schlessinger's "Crisis of the Old Order," two plays byt Eugene O'Neill, novels by F. Scotte Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, orc Sinclair Lewis, and a criticism by H. L. Mencken, as well as poetryc by Wallace Stevens. "The Twen- ties," by Frederick J. Hoffman willy also be included. LawMethods Stage Managing 'Worst' Job In Theatre, Weaver Says r J.-~J, I Second Semester v { By JEAN HARTWIG Stagemanaging is the "worst job in the theater," acording to Wil- liam Weaver, stage manager for the 1958 Drama Season. "The stage manager is respon- sible to both the producer and director," he continued. "He must maintain the production level set by the director and also be aware that the actors have to create that level at each performance." Weaver began his show business career when a friend asked him to appear in a small play in his Ohio hometown. From there he toured with a stock company in which he drove the car, packed the truck, changed the sets and did "practi- cally everything you can imagine." Directed Summer Show After a five-year stint in the armed services, he returned to New York where he acted in sev- eral productions including "Pick- Up Girl" and "Magnificent Yan- kee" with Louis Calhern. During this time he also directed a sum- mer theater show starring Ann Harding and ZaSu Pitts. The "Four Poster," starring Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn, was his first experience as a stage Instrument, Tel~kst ed 'U' By ROBERT JUNKER manager. "When Cronyn sold the New York play and stipulated that I manage it, whammo! It hit me. I had never stagemanaged before in my life." The cast rehearsed in a YMCA gymnasium. Director Jose Ferrer "polished" the action, but "we all put in our two cents worth or more," according to Weaver. Plans Tour Weaver, who has just finished directing and acting in a produc- tion of "Chalk Garden" starring Judith, Anderson and Kathleen Nesbit, is now working on a new script of "Midnight Sun" for the fall. During the remainder of the summer he plans to direct Rudy Vallee on tour with "The Happiest Millionaire." In comparing acting with direct- ing, he said he preferred acting "in a juicy role," but "with an exciting play and a stimulating cast, di- recting is really exciting." Costs High Due to the high cost of pro- duction, Weaver believes the "theater has a large amount of commercialism in it now. I don't know if it's the age or the fact that we're a comparatively young nation, but the poor standards of 'bill-paying" television acting are an example. "If you are blessed with working in an 'honest' play, and not a metre shallow work, the audience will recognize it," he said. "Audiences should reject everything else." Weaver, who will manage the next production of the Drama Season, "The Second Man," star- ring Vicki Cummings and Hurd Hatfield, concluded his discussion with "There's nothing as exciting as a good play."

Prof. James T. Wilson, chairman of the geology department, ex- plained that the seismographs, were located at several stations} across the country to record the non-nuclear blast of 1300 tons of explosives in Vancouver, British Columbia, early in April. The explosives were set off to clear a shipping channel. Prof. Wilson declared that the test provided "inconclusive" results. The station near Spokane, Wash- ington, recorded good results but the other stations got weak shock waves, he said. Detects Nevada Blast These results were "not as good as expected," he said. Th* seismo- graph; which is tuned to an above- normal frequency, had previously detected an underground atomic blast at the Nevada testing' grounds. This seismograph, which picks up waves of 100 cycles, while, the usual machine receives only those cycles below 30, was developed by a research team headed by Harry J. Bugajaski, technician at the Engineering Research Institute, at the Acoustics Laboratory of ERI. In recording the higher fre- quencies, the researchers are try- ing to find if these wavea are produced by earthquakes. Similar equipment to the new seismograph has been in use for years, Prof. Miller explained. It is used by acoustical engineers to, measure the amount of sound in a room. Explosions Test Equipment The researchers will test their equipment on any big explosion if they are informed that it is to take place, Prof. Miller declared. Ihe machine itself is "riot an elaborate piece of equipment," he said. "Some of the results obtained vith this equipment were made )ublic last fall," he mentioned, 'but only since the nuclear tests have taken place has general in- erest been shown in it."
