PACE POtT THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, JULY S, 1953 a nu.ur a. v va . . e.._. .. . a ._ -- ___-_ REVISITS ALMA MATER: Lippman Discusses University Theater __ A? * - * * By PAT ROELOFS Gray - mustached southerner, Prof. Munroe Lippman, here on a three week visit to his alma ma- ter claims to have spent half his life at the University. Claiming 'that he is apparently unable to leave "dear Ann Arbor" permanently, he is back this sum- mer to direct the Speech Depart- ment's forthcoming production of "Country Girl." A MICHIGAN man, Prof. Lipp- man received his A.B., M.A. and PhD degrees in speech at the Uni- versity. Now chairman of the Depart- ment of Theater and Speech at Tulane University, he manages to return frequently to direct summer session speech depart- ment productions. His last pro- duction here was in 1950 when he did "The Time of Your Life" by William Saroyan. Prof. Lippman is also director of Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Car- -re, famous community theater in New Orleans. During the past year he has directed such Broadway favorites as "Stalag 17," "Come Back Little 'Sheba" and "Berkeley Square.". COMMENTING on the Clifford Odet's drama "Country Girl," Lippman said that this play, un- like the majority of Odets' plays which are "socially significant," is about personalities the play- wright has known. He beleives that Odets has portrayed these people in effective theatrical terms. "I'd rather have aplaywright pull you up in your seat, than expose the audience to a dull, well written play," he continued, and this he believes is Odets strong point as a playwright. "Odets writes with color and; poetry," Prof. Lippman pointed out. Discussing the differences in University and professional theat- er, and the role of college thea- ter direction as a basis of profes- sional preparation, director Lipp- man commented that the main task of, the theater in a liberal arts college is to give the univer- sity community access tonvarious types of plays in many centuries of playwriting. In this way, the participating students also re- ceive some basis for professional stage work. * * COMPARING Tulane and the University speech and theater stu- dents, Prof. Lippman reminded local spectators that because of the size of the University, aspir- ing young actors don't get into the act until their junior year, -Daily-Chuck Ritz 'COUNTRY GIRL' TALKS WITH DIRECTOR LIPPMANN * * * * * * and carry on with graduate stu- dents. At Tulane, on the other hand, because of a smaller enrollment,, freshmen are able to perform in student productions and receive on stage training for four or more years. The attitude of. actors at the University, is excellent, according to Prof. Lippman; "They are all conscientious workers." Joining Prof. Lippman in his three-week Ann Arbor visit are Mrs. Lippman and the family poodle Gigi. Speech students re- port that Gigi has accompanied her master to "Country Girl" rehearsals. "She interrupts," Scotch Minister To Speak Hsere A Scotch Minister, the Rev. J. Frazer McLuskey, will be in Ann Arbor Monday through Saturday to give two lectures, take part in a luncheon discussionk pandrtalk with summer session students.

The former Chaplain of the University of Glasgow will also take part in a luncheon discussion on "Wartime Experience in France with the Underground Move- ment" at 12:15 p.m. Thursday. Lippman laughs, "so I have td leave her home." Prof. Lippman concluded a con- versation with reporters by hint- ing that box office sales are now open for "Country Girl" tickets, the play opening on Wednesday night in Lydia Mendelssohn the- ater. U.. Refuses SoapyDefense Conference LANSING -(P) - Secretary of Defense C. E. Wilson has rejected Gov. Williams' request for a con- ference on Detroit's future in de- fense production, the Executive Office said.- The office said Wilson denied published reports that the De-, fense Department plans to bypass Detroit on future defense con- tracts. Wilson asserted that, therefore, the conference would be unnecessary. WILLIAMS SAID he was glad to get Wilson's denial, but he thought the conference should have been held. The Governor said the State Employment Secur- ity Commission reported about 14,- 800 factory workers will be af, fected by defense contract cut- backs now in the making. "Under these circimstances," Williams said, "it seems to me we should be given every opportunity to know what faces Michigan in- dustry and to take the necessary steps to cushion the economic Iook and/i4teth By DONALD HARRIS The weekend's schedule on Ra- dio and TV is not as full as other weeks mainly because too many regular shows are on vacation, but there are a few musical, poli- tical and theatrical programs on the agenda.
