CENNESSEE WILLIAMS:
'You Touched Me!' To Open at Saline

Atom Talks Stewart Praises Magazine

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN]

I

A play and a premiere.
Ann Arbor audiences are being
offered an opportunity to get in
on both at 8:30 p.m today at the
Saline Mill Theater.
As its second offering this season
the Theater will present the Michi-
gan premiere of Tennessee Willi-
ams' romantic comedy, "You
Touched Me!" Based on a story
by D. H. Lawrence, the three-act
play was written in collaboration
with Donald Windham.
First produced in New York five
years ago, when its author was still
struggling for recognition, "You
Touched Me!" contains many of
Williams' now familiar motifs.
Officer Returns
The gay, poignant story of the
play revolves around the return
of a young, virile RAF officer to
a sterile and feminine dominated
household.
Earl Matthews, as Hadrian, the
flyer, comes back to his adopted
home in rural New England and
discovers that its inhabitants are
completely dominated by Aunt
Emmy, a waspish middle-aged
spinster portrayed by Nancy Born.
Not only is Emmy's young
daughter Matilda under her heavy
thumb, but even her brother, Cap-
tain Cornelius Rockley has been
forced to take refuge from his
sister in his own room.
The ingenue role of Matilda is
enacted by Gillian Connable, while
the alchoholic, retired sea captain
is portrayed by William Taylor.
Tries to Change Things
After taking stock of the la-
mentable situation in which he
finds these two characters, Hadrian
devotes the remainder of his dra-
matic efforts to winning the love
of Matilda and emancipating the
Captain. It is with these efforts
that the remaining action is con-,
cerned.
Completing the play's cast are
Howard Malpas, appearing as a
timid vicar who is carrying on a
Platonic courtship with Emmie;
Martha Buhs and Jolly Kellogg
alternating in the role of Phoebe,
and Dale Schlafer who is seen as
a policeman.
Produced by Barbara Hamel and
directed by Ted Heusel, "You
Touched Me!" is scheduled to run
through July 24.

Take Stason
To Euroe
Dean E. Blythe Stason of the
Law School left Ann Arbor, today
for Europe where he will attend
conferences on peaceful uses of
atomic energy.
Dean Stason is Managing Direc-
tor of the Fund for Peaceful Atom-
ic Deielopment, a national, non-
profit organization.
He will hold conferences with
scientists and industrialists in
London, Brussels, Frankfurt and
Luxembourg.
A United Nations Conference on
atomic energy, scheduled for Aug.
8-18 in Geneva, will follow the
Big Four Geneva meeting. Dean
Stason will represent this country
at the conference.
Following his European trip,
Dean Stason will return to the
United States to attend a meeting
of the American Bar Association
in Philadelphia, Aug. 21-24.

On Ninetieth Anniversary

"YOU TOUCHED ME!" - William Taylor as Captain Rockley
and Howard Malpas as the vicar rehearse a scene in the Michigan
premiere of Tennessee Williams' "You Touched Me!", opening
today at the Saline Mill Theater. In this scene, Captain Rockley
is driving the meddling vicar from his house.

Lab To Be Dedicated Friday

BY CAROLE MOSKOWITZ
In the June 18th issue of "The
Nation," Prof. Kenneth N. Stewart
of the journalism department pub-
lished an article entitled, "Ninety
Years of 'The Nation'".
In it he states, "The battlefield
of liberal journalism is strewn with
the neglected graves of high-mind-
ed and short-lived periodicals,
nobly conceived and ignobly bur-
ied."
The liberal weekly magazine was
observing its 90th anniversary.
The first issue of "The Nation"
appeared three months after the
end of the Civil War July 6,
1865. At that time, four million
slaves had been freed.
"The Nation" dedicated itself to
the complex problem oft human
rights, an accurate discussion of
public affairs and democratic prin-
ciples.
Recent Court Decision
Prof. Stewart points up that
only recently the Supreme Court
gave its decision on Segregation.
At the same time "The Nation"
was getting ready to celebrate its
anniversary.
"What better yardstick than the
race question remains for measur-
ing the true degree of devotion to
the principle of freedom. 'The
Nation' is in the forefront of that
fight today as in 1865," wrote Prof.
Stewart.
Continuing, he said, "Taking
'The Nation' to task for specific
stands it may have held on isolated
issues is, however, beside the
point. We should think of liberal-
ism as an attitude, not a program,
if we grant that liberals ought
never become so irrevocably at-
tached to any plan or any man, to
any party or any policy, that they
cannot change with the changing
times."
Has Met The Test
"If we look not so much for
consistency in causes as for con-
stancy in principles and practice
we shall soon see that 'The Nation'
has lived up to its lofty heritage
and met the tests, of the years
unflinchingly."

Its first editor was Edwin Law-
rence Godkin who directed its
course from 1865 to 1899. During
that time it became part of a
weekly edition of the New York
Evening Post.
After a series of editorial shifts
Oswald Garrison Villard became
editor in 1918 and continued until
1932.
After being directed by a board
of editors the paper was put under
the direction of Freda Kirchway
as editor and publisher in 1937.
It- is under her leadership today.
Prof. Stewart ended his article
on the theme, "Today as in the
twenties and other times past the
nation desperately needs 'The Na-
tion'".
Prof. Stewart is the author of
"News Is What We Make It" and
co-author with John Tebbel of
"Makers of Modern Journalism."

To Give Talk
"Intellectual Freedom in Amer-
ican and English Universities: A

masters degree from the Univer-
sity, and then his Ph.D. from Har-
vard in 1933.
He has written several booys

The University's new Architec-
ural Research Laboratory will be
edicated at 11 a.m. Friday in a
eremony at the new structure.
University President Harlan H.
[atcher will formally receive the
Kperimental b u i ld i n g from
'harles W. Attwood, president of
hre Unistrut Corporation of
Vayne, Mich. His company spon-
ored research that led to the
aboratory's development and do-
ated materials for its construc-
ion.
lade of parts literally bolted
nd snapped together, the building
ras erected during the past year

4ith wrenches.

It can be expanded, rearranged,
made smaller or demounted and
carried with ease, according to
Prof. C. Theodore Larson of the
architecture and design college.
Prof. Larson headed the Engineer-
ing Research Institute team that
devised and built the laboratory.
The two-story structure also em-
bodies a new architectural concept
that results in unusually strong,
three-dimensional roof and floor
frames.
Also Friday, an oven house will
be held at 1:30 p.m. for public
inspection of the new lab and the
entire architecture and design
college.

Kashmir Problem Stumps 'Peacemaker' India

NEW DELHI (P) -- Currently'
ard at work on the job of becom-
Lg "peacemaker to the world," In-
La is proud of her own record as a
ation willing to negotiate dis-

v

Indians have received credit in]
some quarters for bringing about
the Korean truce and promotingt
the present shaky de facto cease
fire in Formosa strait.
In the past six years, they have
had ample opportunity to practice
what they preach in their own
backyard. Both India and Paki-
stan claimed the former princely
state of Kashmir, the "Switzerland
of Asia," when the British moved
off the Indian sub-continent.
Kashmir's ruler, a Hindu, acceded
to India but many of his pre-
dominately Moslem subjects de-
manded to be incorporated into1
Pakistan. Bloody warfare between7
tribesmen and Indian army units
ended with a cease fire in 1949. ,
No Truce Violation
Since, that time heavily armed
Indian and Pakistan troops havei
watched - and still watch -- each
other from timbered bunkers along
a 450-mile truce line. United Na-i
tions truce teams enforcing the
cease-fire agreement watch both.i
Although isolated border incidents
occasionally occur, there has been1
no major truce violation..
A meeting between Prime Min-
ister Nehru of India and Prime
Minister Mohammed Ali of Paki-
stan recently brought the countries
no closer to an agreement than
they were six years ago. But the
way for discussion was kept open.
Both hope that sometime in the
future they may find means to
end the bitter quarrel.
Split Pakistan
As the accompanying map
shows,' India holds the rich Vale
of Kashnilr and the southern part
of the state. Pakistan has a narrow
slice on the west and the Hima-
layan areas to the north. Between
lies the cease-fire line, a barrier
both political and military which
halts all trade and traffic.
Six years have brought no
change in the military situation,
but there have been many political
and economic changes. The Indian
government has made great strides
toward solidifying its position with
an eye toward winning over the
Moslem population.
Two years ago a new Kashmir
government commenced, with In-
dia's help, a program of subsidiza-
tion and major development
schemes. These included a pro-
posed tunnel through the 9,000-
foot Banihal mountains on the

hydroelectric project to generate
6,000 kilowatts of power for local
industries.
These projects plus continuous
support by India of the tourist
traffic which in prewar days made
Kashmir flourish, has stabilized at
least temporarily the area's econ-
omy.
Integration With Republic
The policy and program of the
present government of Indian-held
Kashmir is directed toward com-
plete integration with the Indian
republic. Kashmir, says its present
Premier, is an integral part of
India and no action can beataken
to separate it.
The Indian government, while
supporting his ideas and his pro-
gram, recognizes that a dispute
over ownership still exists with
Pakistan and before the United
Nations.
Above the truceline, Kashmir is
still regarded as a separate politi-
cal unit, ana no effort has been
made to include northern Kashmir
in Pakistan.
Pakistan regards final control of
the area as subject to agreement,
either bilateralfy with India or
through action by the United Na-
tions. Economically, northern Pak-
istan's progress is reportedly far
behind that of Indian-held Kash-
mir, largely because the Pakistan
government has withheld a de-
velopment program until the dis-
pute with India is settled.
