By MIKE BOOM
Last year if you asked a tele-
vision viewer to name a few signs
that told him summer was here,
he would probably have answered
with "Movies . .. old movies .. .
more old movies."
Well, the television industry has
not yet found a way to do away
entirely with Hollywood's epics of
the 1930's that formerly replaced
all the major TV shows for the
summer. However, viewers will be
pleased to know that an increas-
ing number of "live" productions
are serving as replacements this
year.
AMONG THE best of this sum-
mer's crop of new shows is the
"Westinghouse Summer Theatre,"
seen on Channel 2 at 9 p.m. Mon-
day. It replaces "Studio One."
probably TV's most consistently'
excellent dramatic presentation,
and does a very creditable job.
Comedies, mysteries, and
lighter works will be featured,
and there are promised several
repeats of past "Studio One"
successes. Next week, John Mc-
Quade (TV and radio's "Charlie
Wild") and Margaret Hayes will
star in a mystery, "Nightfall."
NBC has kept in the lighter vein
in providing a relief show for
"Kukla, Fran, and Ollie," seen
on Channel 4 at 6 p.m., Monday
through Friday.aThey now offer a
new personality, Ernie Kovacs, in
a show that is hardly describable.
Ernie himself says it's "a short
show . . . it just seems long."
On some nights Ernie deals in
his forte, subtle satire, but on
others he explodes with boister-
ous corn. All in all, this mixture
of comedy, songs, and music is
fine fare for summer dinnertime
viewing.

FRED WARING'S summer suc-
cessor is a production called
"Guest House," viewed on Chan-
nel 2 at 8 p.m., Sunday.
Although the studio was filled
with over a dozen top enter-
tainers and theatrical personali-
ties for the premier show last
week, Oscar Levant had little
trouble stealing the spotlight.

Second in the speech depart-
ment's summer series of plays,
"An Enemy of the People," adapt-
ed by Arthur Miller, '38, will be
presented on campus for the first
time at 8 p.m. Wednesday in the
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
Henrik Ibsen's long-famous tra-
gedy - of which Miller's is the
most recently produced adapta-
tion-tells of the unsanitary con-
ditions of the health baths which
have become the livelihood of a
small town in Norway, and how
they affect two publicly prominent
brothers.

To Present
Symposiums
A scientific "growth and differ-
entiation" symposium will be held
Monday through Thursday in the
School of Public Health.
"The Longer Classic: Fiction"
will be considered at a conference
of English teachers at 4 p.m. to-
morrow in Rackham Assembly
Hall.
Dean James B. Edmonson of the
School of Education will lecture on
"The Old Versus the New in Edu-

covers and becomes scientifically
certain of the water's pollution.
He mistakenly believes that he has
done the town a great service and
that the matter will be improved
immediately.
But Dr. Stockmann, played by
Nafe Katter, Grad., had not coun-
ted on his brother-mayor of the
town-who's reaction was entire-
ly different.
Peter Stockmann, played by
Richard Burgwin, Grad., and
Bruce Nary, Grad., who plays
Hovstad, the local newspaper
editor, succeed in turning the
whole town against the doctor.
Attempting to defend his posi-
tion, which is one of truth, Dr.
Stockmann holds a meeting in a
private home,-the only place not
controlled by Havstad and the
mayor.
EVEN THERE, however, the
side of hypocrisy is able to move
the mob's spirit. They attack the
home; Dr. Stockmann; his wife
as played by Bernice Daniel,
Grad.; and his children, played
by Dennis Morley and Michael
Philbin, two Ann Arbor grammar
school students.
At this point, branded as an
enemy of the people, Dr. Stock-
mann martyrs himself and his

erence Room of the Rackham
Building.

stand for truth they must re-

loneliness,
Others in the cast include Wil-

lard Booth, Stan Challis and
James Briley, all of whom are
graduate students in the speech
department.

ORIGINALLY TH idea came
to Ibsen when he read an article
in a German newspaper about a
similar event. The play contains
a good deal of autobiography in
that Ibsen himself was being cri-
ticized for standing by absolute
objective truth without the com-,
promises demanded by society's
practicality.
Miller has adapted the some-
what stilted language of the lit-
eral translation into free-flow-
ing American colloquialisms
without changing Ibsen's moral
point of view.
Directed by Prof. H. Z. Norton,
sets for the play have been de-
signed by George Crepeau, and
the costumes executed by Lucy
Barton.
Tickets for the performances,
which will be held Wednesday
through Saturday night, may be
purchased from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
daily, and on performance night
until 8 p.m., at the Lydia Men-
delssohn box office.

A STEADY turnover of ten-

booking of 47-including two
ducks, a raccoon and a deodorized
skunk-to a group comprised of,
four cats, 14 kittens and a host of
dogs, .but the four-legged residents
are obviously still pretty happy
about their quarters.
And with good reason, too.

thing fresh on TV, but after 45
minutes even it became somewhat
annoying. With some toning down,
this show can become highly en-

Some of the top shows are stay-

them Ed Sullivan's "Toast of the

The festival will be held in the

heat, modern ventilation equip-
ment, germicidal lamps, a diet
kitchen and continual running
water in all kennels.
There are also observation
and isolation wards for ailing
animals, enameled bathtubs and
a special nursery for the young.
A 28-cage "adoption room" gives
each pet an equal chance to
land a new master.
Hopelessly injured or diseared
animals are dispatched by a mo-
dern gas chamber which puts sub-
jects to sleep in less than a min-
ute's. time.
THE DELUXE layout includes
the shelter proper, a residence for
the manager and a garage with an
adjacent barn for wayward horses
or cows.
Funds for construction of the
shelter were donated by Frederick
C. Matthaei, Detroit industrialist.
"We spent a year and a half in
research," Matthaei said, "I think
we are far ahead of any other lo-
cality."
Chances are, the present in-
habitants of the shelter think so
too.
Alimony Hitched
To Cost of Living
DETROIT- VP) -Alimony, too,
has been hitched to the cost of
living.
It seems that of the nearly 1,900'
revisions of Circuit Court orders
in divorce cases last year, a large
majority were to help keep di-
vorcees abreast of their ex-hub-
bles' inflation - fattened p a y
checks.
Edward Pokorny, friend of the
court, hastened to explain that di-
vorcees usually don't rely on any
government price index. But he
pointed out that they have a right
to petition for more alimony if
there is a "material change" in
their former husbands' income.
Stassen Hits Post
For Youngdahl
ST. PAUL, Minn.-(P)-Harold
E. Stassen yesterday blasted ap-
pointment of Gov. Luther W.
Youngdahl of Minnesota to the
Federal District Bench as a "typi-
cal Truman trick of clever poli-
tics."
Stassen, former Minnesota Gov-
ernor himself, said he feels re-
moval of Youngdahl from Minne-
sota is a "brazen attempt to grab
the governorship of Minnesota in
1952 from Sen. Hubert Humphrey
or one of his henchmen."

Of Exhibits
Featured
Exhibits ranging from the lowly
to the sublime - swimmer's itch
to the seventh. President of the
University-are now on display
at various museums and libraries
around the campus.
Students planning swimming
parties at lakes near Ann Arbor
would do well to note the display
in the Museums Building which
illustrates the process by which
parasitic larvae, living in the blood
of water birds, attach themselves
to humans and cause a painful
skin condition, known as swim-
mer's itch. Methods of prevention
and control of swimmer's itch are
also shown.
AN EXHIBIT on the first floor
of the General Library pays tri-
bute 'to Alexander G. Ruthven,
seventh president of the Univer-
sity, by showing how the campus
has grown under his guidance
from 1930 to 1950.
Several volumes from Presi-
dent Ruthven's rare book col-
lection are in the library cases.
After seeing the work of ex-
pansion done by the seventh presi-
dent of the University, students
may be interested in a display
showing the University a it first
existed in Detroit in 1817.
Pictures of the lone building in
which the University washhoused
and of its first president, the Rev-
erend John Monteith, are now on
exhibit in the Michigan Histori-
cal Collection Room of the Rack-
ham Building.
