Play Cast Finds Interpretation Of 1 1 Semi-Pro 0ur Town Different
March 20, 1953
INGENIOUS! An ingenious machine known as the Vari-Typer was used to set the type on
today' s front page of the TELESCOPE instead of a standard t y p e writer as
Several of the members of the uOur TowJJ." play cast went to Los Angeles Friday, March 6, to see a semi~ professional production of "Our Town." "While their interpretation differed from ours," remarked Mr. Ben Padrow,
drama director, ''we were, nevertheless, able to absorb some ideas from a detail and business point." Rehearsal is progressing well, according to Mr. Padrow. The cast seems to have reached the point where they are beginning to understand and interpret
the play correct! y, he added.
Debaters Return From Tournament
A very unique program is planned for the play. A poem of "Our Town" by
Lynn Calland will he featured. Opening night is April 10. Price of admission will be $1 for the public. Students will be admitted free if they own student body cards.
normally used. Made possible by Mr. Arne Aunan of
the Ralph C. Coxhead Corporation in San Diego, sellers of the machine, the process is similar to the regular typing
method. The Vari-Typer looks very much like a typewriter, but almost every type of print can be produced merely by inserting a small cUrved plate with the desired type of print into the hack of the machine. A good typist can learn to operate the machine with very little effort, and it is widely used in all kinds of printing work. Mr. Aonan is present at today's Business Day, and those interested may see him demonstrate the machine.
Foreign Program How do American schools compare with foreign schools? If you are in doubt, you will enjoy the Foreign Panel Assembly scheduled for next Friday in the men's lounge at ll a.m. Mr. Adolph Heyne, language instructor; Miss Marianne Fritz, former Germany resident; Miss Anne Paula Van de Poel, former Holland resident, will discuss European education. Miss Fritz is s I ate d to speak on German grammar (elementary) schools, w hi 1 e Miss Van de Poel wi II cover secondary schools and universities of
Holland. Mr. Heyne will be in charge.
This
discussion will he open for questions from the audience. Also, these questions will be answered: Why does the state inspector in Germany give examinations? Why are there more men than women teachers? Why do students in grammar school go five-and-one-half hours a day, six days a week?
Members of the Palomar debate squad returned Monday from Pepperdine College in Los Angeles where they competed in speech tournaments with other leading colleges from California. Due to press time restrictions, results of the tournament are being printed on page three of
today's TELESCOPE. Palomar wal? the smallest school competing and had a ratio of one out of every 20 of its students in the contest,
while large schools such as UCLA and USC usual! y send one out of every 350. For this reason, according to Mr. Ben Padrow, debate coach, a junior college has more ad v a n tag e s than a large university. "Those competing are an untried team," stated Mr. Padrow, "and are handicapped by only a month's training." 13efore leaving, Mr. Padrow stated, "Our c~ances are excellent, and we've really been working hard."
Subject of the debate was the pending Federal Fair Employment Practice law. Debators from Palomar included Mary Lee Johnson, Janice Greenlee, Tom
Lasswell, Don Wolfe, Chuck Drew, and Linden Courter. Others competing along with the above in extemporaneous speaking and impromptu speaking, discussion, and oratory, were Sally Myers, Lynn
Cahan, and Anne Paula Von de Poe!.
