Emotional Pandemonium Shown
In Players' Anti-War Production
Munitions exploding ... torch sing

voice of a radio announcer ... minis
ters exhorting . . . the gruff entice
ments of recruiting officers ... bewil

killed my brotherl" ... pandemonium
. hysteria .. . chaos .. . war ...
Such are the impressions one cur
ries away from the Little Theatre
after a final-week rehearsal of
"Peace on Earth," the anti-war dra
ma which the Penn State Players
will present qn Friday, the day of the
international student strike against
war. More than fifty participants,
the largest cast ever to appear in a
'Players' production, project a tense
ness into their portrayals which is un
usual for an informal rehearsal.
Technicians Prepare Sets
In the basement of the auditorium,
technicians are touching up the sets
which they claim are "themost diffi
cult the Players have used this year.
A strike scene ... a river barge ...
a wake ... a prison. scene ... ethereal
illusions appearing before a man sen
tenced to the gallows ...
' Backstage, technicians are busy re
producing pulsatihg sound effects,
from the steady tramp, of marching
feet, to the deafening explosion of a
battleship. Electricians are perfect
ing the lighting 'arrangement which
will give the difficult illusory effect
required in the , last act. In the
dressing rooms, the cast is making
up students become professors,
torch singers, army officers, minis
ters, jailers, drunks, policemen; some
remain college students. •
