BULLETIN
Well known writers will be on,
hand today and tomorrow to dis-;
,uss various aspects of writing
from poetry to detective ficion as
part of the Symposium of Writing
sponsored by the English Depart-
ment.
In order to discover how it can
aid prospective writers to "find
themselves" the University is of-
fering a full program of lectures,
discussion groups, and clinical ses-
sions devoted to manuscript anal-
ysis.
SUCH WRITERS as Prof. John
Muehl and Prof. Allan Seager both
of the English department, Ken-
neth Millar and Leslie Frost will
offer their suggestions to young
writers.
According to Prof. Robert F.
Haugh of the English Depart-
ment, Chairmen of Committee,
the object of the symposium is
"to bring together writers for the
purpose of stimulating discus-
sion, forathe exchange ofrtech-
nliques and methods for the
communication of enthusiasm
and the sharing of experiences"
The first item on the agenda
today will be registration and cof-
fee hour a 9:30 a.m. in Rm. 1006
Angell Hall followed by an open-
ing greeting by Prof. Arno Bader,
Chairman of the Hopwood Com-
mittee.
AT 10:30 a.m. the Sy'nposium
will hear its first lecturer, Prof.
Mueh who will speak on writing
non-fiction.
Prof. Allan Seager of the Eng-
lish Department will be the
luncheon speaker at 12:15 p.m.
at the Union. He will discuss
"The Writer as Thinker." There
will be a charge of $1.75 to at-
tend the luncheon.
A manuscript session on fiction
Hidden Radio
JazzesSleep
ELGIN, Ill.-(P)-Ralph D. Cla-
born went to bed at midnight. But
not to sleep.
Somewhere in the dark of night
a radio was emitting music and
long commercials.
At 4:20 a.m. yesterday Claborn
rose and telephoned a complaint
to the police.
Policemen drove over to the
neighborhood; turned off the
motor of their squad car and lis-
tened. They heard nothing but
the stirrings of early birds. So they
went away.
At 5:20 Claborn rang up the po-
lice again.
"Can't something be done about
that radio?" he pleaded. "It's still
going."
The two officers drove to Cla-
born's home, investigated, and
?again heard nothing.
"Wait until. I put on my trou-
sers and slippers," Claborn said,
"and I will help you find it."
As Claborn reached down for
his slippers, the music seemed
louder.
He looked underneath his bed.
There, still giving out with tunes
sweet and hot, was a portable
radio that belongs to Claborn's
two children.
will follow in the afternoon at
2:30 p.m.
* * +
"THE SOCIAL Meanings of the
Detective Novel" as derived by'
Kenneth Millar will be the last'
item on today's agenda at 4:15
p.m. in Auditorium A, Angell Hall.
Tomorrow, Kenneth Millar
will again speak "On Writing
Popular Fiction" at 9:30 a.m. in
the Hopwood room. Following
him at 11 a.m. will be a manu-
script session on poetry.
Because acquainting the writers
with the University facilities is
another important objective of
the symposium, members have
been invited to hear talks by Col-
ton Storm of the Library and by
F. Clever Bald of the Michigan
Historical Collection at 2 p.m. to-
morrow in the William Clements
Library.
The final event in the Writing
Symposium will be a talk by Les-
lie Frost, daughter of poet Robert
Frost. Miss Frost will speak on
"Modern Poetry Looks at the Mo-
dern World" at 4:15 p.m. in Audi-
torium A, Angell Hall.
June Exits
In Hot Finale
By The Associated Press
Summer turned on the steam
heat in much of the nation yes-
terday.
Temperatures of 90-plus were
recorded at many points. It was
humid, too, in a long hot belt that
extended from California through
the Southwest and Midwest and
reached into the East.
* * *
READINGS were in the 80s and
low 90s in the East, topped 90 in
St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee,
Omaha, Denver and Indianapolis
and were over the 100 mark in
Blythe, Calif., and Tucson, Ariz.
Phoenix, Ariz., had 109 and
LaJunta, Co., 101.
June, a hot month in many
areas, ended with a final blast of
heat.
** * *
MAYOR ALEX Clark of Indian-
apolis senk an order over the po-
lice radio to all uniformed cops
to remove their neckties and un-
button the top buttons on their
shirts.
It has been the most torrid
June on record in most Texas
cities. Dallas, for example, had
14 days of 100 or higher maxi-
mums during the month. It us-
ually has 11 such cverheated
days in an entire year.
Rains in the eastern half of
Texas have moderated tempera-
tures a bit.
* * *
BUT THE showers did not put
an end to concern over the drought
in Texas and other states in the
arid area.
The best rains in several months
were reported in some sections of
Western Oklahoma yesterday. The
fall amounted to more than an
inch at several points. It was not
a drought-breaker but farmers
were elated by the lift the mois-
ture gave the dying crops.
By ELSIE KUFFLER
"It is striking what a large partt
women play in Greek tragedy,"1
prefaced Robert S. C. Levens, Pro-
fessor of Classics at Oxford Uni-
versity yesterday in speaking of;
Women of Greek Tragedy."
Prof. Levens went on to say that
the Greek tragedians only had two
outstanding male characters with
women dominating the scene al-
most entirely contrasted to Shake-
speare who characterized very few
women.
ACCORDING TO Prof. Levens
this is even the more surprising
because the women of Athens in
5 B. C. were "in a position of
social inferiority," and there were
no women on the stage.
The reason for this peculiar-
ity explained Prof. Levens was
the fact that Greek tragedians
based their plots on Homeric
epics and others of the Homeric
period in which women were
not so secluded.
In the Homeric age of royalty
and warfare "Women had a great
deal at stake, and they were the
great sufferers," he said. "This
had the effect of making their per-
sonal relationships a matter of
great intensity," thus enabling
such playwrights as Euripedes and
Aeschylus to create moving and
emotional characters like Cas-
sandra, Clytemnestra, and Medea.
ONE REASON for depicting wo-
men so prolificly in plays, was
that, "The dramatists realized wo-
man's emotional strength, her ten-
acity of purpose, her authority,
and her ability to make a grown
man feel like a little boy."
To ilustrate some of her hus-
band's points and to give the
audience a very real experience,
Daphne Levens gave dramatic
readings from "Agememnon" by
Aeschylus portraying both Cas-
sandra and Clyemnestra.
She also read selections from the
"Trojan Women" by Euripedes and
from "Medea" by Sophocles. The
EventsToday
"FOURIER Transformation and
X-Ray Diffraction of Crystals"
will be discussed by P. P. Ewald
of the Brooklyn Polytechnic In-
stitute at 9 a.m. in 1400 Chemistry
Bldg.
Following this there will be a
lecture on the "Experimental
Studies of Crystal Structures" giv-
en by William N. Lipscomb of the
University of Minnesota at 10 a.m.

professor of speech will lecture on
"Through Europe by Stage" be-
fore the speech assembly at 3 p.m.

Theater.

"GALAXIES: Their Composition
and Structure" will be discussed
by Walter Baade, astronomer,
Mount Wilson and Palomar obser-
vatories at 2 p.m. in 1400 Chem-
istry Bldg. He will be followed by
Dr. George Gamow of George
Washington University who will

PROF. T. C. Rosenbloom of the
University of Minnesota will dis-
cuss "A Mathematical Approach
to Syntax" before the Linguistics
Luncheon Meeting at 1 p.m. in
the League dining room.
Medea monologue was given in the
original Greek after which Prof.
Levens jokingly pronounced that
it is possible to learn Greek in one
year as Mrs. Levens had only be-
gun its study last September.
State .Deficit
55 Million
For 1952-3
LANSING - (IP) - Michigan's
state deficit for the 1952-53 fiscal
year yesterday was estimated at
$55,000,000.
Fiscal officials said, however,
that it would be at least two
months before they determined ex-
actly how much the state is in the
red.
The state treasury and auditor
general's departments said the
state books would be kept open
for another 30 days until all bills
and revenue collections are in-
cluded. They said another 30 days
would be required to complete an
accounting of the fiscal year end-
ing yesterday.
The $55,000,000 estimate was
reached by subtracting additional
revenue obtained in the past two
months from the $90,000,000 pre-
dicted deficit which faced the leg-
islature- this year.
The largest revenue item was
the $35,000,000 supposed to be ob-
tained by shifting the due date of
the corporation franchise tax from
August to May. Officials said this
shift has not yet produced all the
revenue that was expected but
that part of the loss was offset by
incrpased sales tax collections.
