By SUE GARFIELD
B. Iden Payne, guest directo
in the Department of Speech thi
summer, will play his most famou
role in the Play Production's third
play in the summer series.
Under the direction of Prof
William Halstead, the speech de-
partment will present Richard
Brinsley Sheridan's r e h e a r s a:
farce, "The Critic," at 8 p.m. ir
the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre

Payne played his well-known role
of Mr. Puff in the United States
for the first time.
The summer's presentation ol
"The Critic" is a revival, as i
was staged by Prof. Halstead ir
the spring and summer of 1940.
Cast of Fifty
A cast of over fifty will be needed
to present this "play-within-a play"
with its satire of Elizabethan bom-
bastic tragedy. The "Masque of the
Rivers," which climaxes the per-
formance will be choreographed
by Prof. Estler E. Pease of the
Women's Physical Education De-
partment.
Scenery for the production, which
includes an elaborate staging of
a naval battle and the sinking of
the Spanish Armada, will be de-
signed and executed by Jack E.
Bender.
Wig-making for theatrical pur-
poses involves a few basic steps
according to Lloyd Evans, Mary
Lou Moench and Ralph Duckwall,
who are asisting Phyllis Pletcher
costumier for Play Productions.
The first step is to cut felt and
fit it to a wood head-block. The
felt is shaped and then covered
with liquid latex and fleshcolored

Introduce Bill
T o Create New
Cabinet Office
WASHINGTON (R)-Rep. J. Ar-
thur Younger (R-Calif) Friday in-
troduced a bill to create a De-
partment of Urbiculture at a Cabi-
net level.
By urbiculture, he said, he
means he wants a department de-
voted to the problems and the wel-
fare of city people.
"I'm serious about this," Young-
er said. "When the Department
of Agriculture was set up, 75 per
cent of our people lived on farms.
"Now around 75 per cent of our
people live in urban communities,
and it's time we were doing scien-
tific research and study on their
economic and social problems:
"There is, for example, a defi-
nite for a study of the proper
use of urban land."
Obviously, with Congress strug-
gling to get out of town, Younger's
bill isn't going to get anywhere
this session. But he figures it's a
good time to throw the idea in
and see what happens.
Younger says he has no quarrel
with agriculture.
But he says he has noticed that
congressmen f r o m agricultural
districts always are able to speak
with authority whereas the city
congressman is at a disadvantage.

Move Made
To Bar TV
From Court
Newspaper Code
Being Considered
LANSING-o)-Television Cam-
eras would be virtually barred from
all court rooms under a new code
adopted by the State Supreme
Court.
The Supreme Court disclosed it
had adopted a new canon of judi-
cial ethics at the request of the
State Bar.
At the same time, the State Bar
of Michigan said it is considering
a proposal for a newspaper code
covering the reporting of investi-
gations, arrests and trials.
No Television in Court
The Supreme Court canon ad-
vises lower courts not to permit
the televising of court proceed-
ings. An exception is the tele-
vising of naturalization ceremon-
ies conducted under the supervis-
ion of the court and in such a
way as to demonstrate the "dig-
nity and seriousness" of naturali-
zation.
The new code is an amendment
of a former canon which forbids
the taking of photographs during
court sessions or during court re-
cesses and radio broadcasting of
court proceedings.
The State Bar Journal said its
Board of Commissioners would
meet in Detroit July 30 to consider
a resolution aimed at a new canon
governing newspaper handling of
trials and arrests.
If approved by the commission-
ers, the resolution would be sub-
mitted to the annual meeting of
the State Bar.
Resolutions Content
The resolution said "the pre-
sumption of innocence and other
rights of the accused, though
deeply rooted in American tradi-
tions of individual liberty, are
gradually being undermined in
the minds and attitudes of the
American people by certain poli-
cies and practices of many news-
papers and other media of com-
munication."
The resolutions said that there
is a problem of "reconciling the
conduct of newspaper publications
and other media of communication
with an adequate recognition of
the rights of an accused."
It asked the bar to authorize a
committee to "enter into negotia-
tions with the representatives of
the newspapers and other media of
communication regarding the re-
porting of investigations, arrests
and trials, with the view of adopt-
ing suitable and effective canons
and codes of conduct."
Two Faculty
Members Add
To Publication
Prof. James V. Neel of the In-
st mute of Human Biology and Prof.
William J. Schull of the zoology
department are listed as contribu-
tors to "Statistics and Mathematics
in Biology," a new book released
this week by the Iowa State Col-
lege Press.
This book represents the collect-
ed writings of 44 leading workers
throughout the country, and is a

summation of material presented
at the Biostatistics Conference at
Iowa State College in 1952. Ac-
cording to the editors, the 640-page
book synthesizes theh concepts and
methods of biology with the con-
cepts and methods of statistics and
mathematics.
"A Description of Studies on the
Potential Genetic Effects of the
Atonic Bombs in Japan 1. Or-
ganizational Aspects" is the title
of the chapter written by Prof.
Neel, while Prof. Schull contribu-
ted a secion on "A Description of
Studies on the Potential Genetic
Effects of the Atomic Bombs in
Japan II. Analytical Problems."

On the first floor of the Na-
tural Science Building stands a
curious looking little gadget with
a souped up balancing mechanism.
It is called a seismograph and
standing a perpetual vigil as the
Geology Department's "watchdog"
to record the "moans" and the
"groans" occuring under the -
earth's surface.
Whenever an earthquake or tre-
mor hits any section of the globe,
the seismograph picks up the
sound waves as they are cast up
through the underlying areas be-
neath the earth's crust. t
As the slightest vibrations trans-
mitted through the earth come F
near Ann Arbor, the seismograph
faithfully picks them up and auto-
matically records them on a photo-
graphic plate in a dark room in
back of the instrument. Once
each day staff geologists develop
the negative to determine if there
have been any noticeable varia-
tions.
The balancing mechanism on
the seismograph is so delicate that
large trucks driving past the build- SEI

ment compensation wages have
been paid than during the entire
year of 1953.
July figures tallied thus far show
that 1,500 pesops are now receiv-
ing unemployment compensation in
the county. The increase of 100
[persons on this lit is attributed
to "seasonal vacation and regular
periodic production changeover"
by Nottingham.
Increase Over Last Year
Last year during the month of
July, $14,260 was the amount paid
unemployed people in the county.
The over-all increase in unemploy-
ment is the result of lapsed defense
contracts in the area.
Earlier this year, City Council
members requested that this area
be considered a "distress" area
in terms of numbers unemployed.
R. J. Barden, member of the
staff of a local finance company,
yesterday said that "many people
believe incorrectly that there is an
increase in loan requests when un-
employment goes up." He said that
laborers laid-off are considered
"out-of-work," and few ask for
loans. "They don't want to obligate
themselves when tmere is no way
to pay off loans" Barden remarked.
He continued "when there is an
unstable labor market as there now
is, the volume of business a loan
association does decreases."
Finance companies will make
loans to persons considered only
Food Costs Up
Since January
WASHINGTON (R-Rising food
prices edged living costs up slight-
ly in June to the highest point
since January and close to last
October's peak.
The government Bureau of Labor
Statistics Friday reported its in-
dex rose one tenth of 1 per cent.
This brought the index to 115.1
per cent of the 1947-49 average,
compared with 115.0 in May and
October's 115.4 record level.
Generally speaking, living costs
are holding stable. They are only.
one half of 1 per cent above a
year ago. Statistics Commissioner
Ewan Clague said the outlook is
for "continued strength" in con-
sumer prices without much change
either way.
Higher prices for fresh fruits and
coffee led the June food price ad-
vance of four tenths of 1 per
cent. Fresh vegetable prices were
down.

temporarily unemployed in some
cases however, according to Bard-
en. "If we know the people who
are temporarily out of work, we
may be able to give them our
services" he concluded.
Loan Extensions
A member of a local bank staff
told the Daily that there have been
some extensions in loan payment
dates made for unemployed per-
sons. He said that few banks in
the area will make loans to un-
employed people because they will
have no means to repay the loan.
How To Find
'Great Bear'
To Be Shown
'Storytime' will depart from its
usual narrative technique on Mon-
day at 6:30 over WPAG-TV, when
it presents a program about the
Big Dipper.
The story will be done in pan-
tomime, using a shadow box. It
will explain to children how to
make the Great Bear out of the
dipper, something which few peo-
ple are able to do. It will also
give a brief history of the Big
Dipper, explaining what people in
other lands thought it was. The
program will conclude by urging
the children to go outside after it
becomes dark in order to discover
the Dipper for themselves. The
program was written ny ana will
be directed by Ann Remley.
Musical Program
'The 310 Weekly,' at 7:30 p.m.,
will feature Professor Sigura Ras-
cher of the University School of
Music. Accompanied by Patricia
Arden at the piano, Professor Ras-
cher will present a saxophone con-
cert which includes: Henry Pur-
cell, "Two Bourroes"; Francis Sch-
ubert, "The Bee", George Gersh-
win, "Prelude No. 2"; Mondonville,
"Tambourin;" Glaser - Rascher,
"Carnival of Venice Variations".

land in 1936.
