Players To Use 3-Dimensional
Sound In The Gentle Peo
By ROSEMARY DELAHANTY
There'll be sound in the round
at Center stage for the next six
weeks.
Penn. State Players will be
pioneering when "The Gentle
People" opens tomorrow night,
for they. will be the first dramatic
group anywhere to use three
dimensional sound effects in ar
ena staging.
This "round" sound isn't quite
as complicated as one might
think, according to production
technician John Price, who set
up the system which will be used
for the six-week run of the play.
Locate So‘und
The idea is to locate all sound
at its origin. This means that
when "Jonah" and "Philip," two
leading characters in "The Gen
tle People," are fishing from their
boat, the sound of the motor will
actually seem to be coming from
the boat—not from some place
off stage.
The lapping of water against
the boat, the tinkling of buoys,
and other 'harbor noises will •be
reproduced.
All this is accomplished by the
use of loudspeakers placed stra
tegically throughout the building.
In some cases the sound will
even "move"—when ' a diesel
launch approaches the scene of
action for example. This is done
by transfering the sound from
one speaker to another.
Change Of Noises
The impression that sound is
fading from one direction to an
other is the hardest to obtain. If
the change is from harbor noiser
to surf noises, WS difficult to kee:

Dulles Mission
Plans Liberal
Jap Treaty
TOKYO, Thursday, Feb. 8—(?P)
—lnformed sources today said the
Dulles mission is working on a
treaty plan leaving Japan virtu
ally free to carve her own future,
hoping thereby to keep a Hitler
from arising in the Orient.
They said the U. S. position is
that specific restrictions would
arouse Japanese resentment. They
point to the way the Versailles
Treaty helped to bring Hitler to
power in Germany after World
War I.
Ambassador John Dulles him
self said in an interview that
peace terms as now foreseen by
the United States will not speci
fically bind Japan to perpetuate
occupation reforms. The inter
view was given Monday and some
details were released Wednesday.
Could Restore Leaders
In theory, the Japanese could
discard all the occupation re
forms and restore purged war
time leaders to power. The Amer
ican hope, of course, is that Japan
.will stick to the road of demo
cracy.
These reforms include such
sweeping measures as distribution
of land to former tenants, the
breakup of the great industrial
monopolies that once armed Ja=
pan for conque - st, and the order
that banned wartime industrial

From Editor f Inkling

A complete report of the work accomplished on Inkling,

Judge Urges
Army To Start
Rail Service
By the Associated Press
A federal judge hearing con
tempt charges against striking
switchmen urged the army Wed
nesday to "get some soldiers" to
see that the roads operate.
New mediation efforts were re
sumed in Washington, meanwhile,
and W. P. Kennedy, head of the
striking switchmen, said "things
look good" for settlement.
Although back to work move
ments were gaining momentum
elsewhere, striking switchmen
holding out in key midwest rail
hubs' held cross-country freight
traffic to a dribble.
Judge Michael L. Igoe in Chi
cago declared the work stoppage
is a challenge to U. S. sovereignty.
He criticized army officers ap
pointed to operate the railroads
for "strutting around this court
room" and sitting in court during
the hearing. He said:
"If they were performing the
duties of an officer of the army

Council Votes
11 Dorms Open
Nittany. dormitory council last
night voted to keep 11 dormi
tories open for the remainder of
the spring semester.
In deciding last night to close
dorms 23, 24, 26, 29, 34, 35, 41,
and 43, the council went beyond
an agreement it made last semes
ter with the administration to
close the dorms named with the
exception of Dorm 35.
Cduncil members made the de
cision after they learned that only
one part of the Nittany-Pollock
dining hall would be in operation
this semester. In light of this, the
council decided to close one more
dormitory than previously plan
ned.
Dorms 24, 29, 41, and 43 volun
teered to close because of the
small number of residents, but it
took a close 8 to 6 vote of the
council to close Dorms 23 and 26.
Dorm 23 has 29 residents and
Dorm 26 has 28.
Guarantee
The council decided to guaran
tee all dorms with 30 or mere
residents that they would be per
mitted to remain open. Dorm 35
now has 22 residents.
Of the 466 men in the Nittany
area, 25 will be given, rooms in
the West dorms by tomorrow,
Daniel De Marino, assistant dean
of men, said yesterday afternoon.
Council members claimed the ad
ministration promised 61 Nittany-
Pollock residents would receive
rooms in the new dorms.
Council members stated that all
men now living in single rooms
of dorms designated to be closed
will be able to obtain similar
status in the remaining 11 open
dorms.
Several students who witnessed
the meeting expressed the opinion
that other buildings should have
been closed.
One student said, "Now that
I've been ordered to move, I guess
I'll go down town, even if they
won't let me. I've moved too
often."
PRICE FIVE CENTS
senior commencement, and the
National Student association's
Chinese educzltional aid program.
Sophomore and freshman vice
presidents and secretary-treasur
ers will be installed at the meet
ing.
Vaughan said yesterday that
an issue of the Inkling would
have to be forthcoming this sem
ester or not for an indefinite per
iod of time. He said that means
of financing the literary maga
zine was the big stumbling
block.
Liberal Arts Subsidy
The possibility of having the
Liberal Arts school subsidize the
magazine is being investigated,
according to Vaughan. Inkling,
the successor of the now defunct
Critique, was chartered last
spring after cabinet granted it
$6OO to pay off debts carried over
from the bankrupt Critique's ac
count.
No issues of the magazine have
been printed, although Vaughan
and his staff have material for
an edition if adequate financing
can be •found.
Neil See, chairman of Tribunal,
will report on freshman customs.
More than 100 new freshman
men were to begin wearing green
dinks and name cards yesterday.
A report on senior commencement
will be given by Harry Kondoura
jian, All-College vice-president.
WSSF Report
William Klisanin, president of
NSA, will report on World Stu
dent Service fund money which
NSA uses for educational aid to
China. The funds have been froz
en pending a complete investiga
tion of the Chinese situation by
NSA. Klisanin also will report
on a proposed program for dis
placed persons.
