ther remarkable accomplishment
for a show whose music, dancing,
and script was directed by dif
ferent persons.
Incongruities in medieval and
atomic age speech idioms make
for some hilarious plays on words,
which, coupled with the situa
tion of “Sir Boss” introducing
modern technology to King Ar
thur’s court, makes a script that
could stand alone without music.
Add to that the Rodgers and
Hart score, whose popularity af
ter 25 years is proof of its great
ness, and it’s a hard-to-beat com
bination.
Just to prove the success of
her initial number wasn’t begin
ner’s luck. Miss Cooper, as Queen
Morgan La Fay, put over “To
Keep My Love Alive” and “Can’t
You Do a Friend a Favor?” with
even more gusto.
Rolf Is 'Yankee'
Nancy Lou Thomas and A 1 Mc-
Chesney, who played the delight
fully imbecilic Galahad, did won
derful things with both “Desert
Isle” and “I Feel at Home with
You.”
Ed-Rolf, as the ingenious Yan
kee who becomes “Sir Boss,” had
the opportunity to display his
range and tonal quality in “Thou
Swell,’ 5 and “My Heart Stood
Still,” both evidently favorites of
Betty Richardson, who played
Sandy. At times she actually car
essed her notes with the same
earnestness that made the
“thee’s” and “thou’s” in her lines
so hilarious.
Eclipse of Sun
In contrast to the generally
flippant mood of the show is the
storing “Rise and Shine” scene.
The courtiers, enveloped in dark
ness as a result of an eclipse of
the sun, raise their voices in a
plea for light.
The mechanization of Camelot
is portrayed at the beginning of
the second act with the “Lunch
time Follies,” a rhythmic num
ber 1 complete with calisthenics
that has everyone “pulling in the
belta.”
Generally good production in
cluded a 15-foot tree and a jeep
that appears in a flash of light—
Thespians’, not Merlins’, magic.
The band—extremely brassy—is
good in parts and extremely hard
on the ears in other parts that a
little more practice should smooth
out.

He said, that the group had voted
in favor of cabinet support of the
measure.
The FM system, which was pre
sented in a,report by the radio
committee, would call for the es
tablishment of an FM radio sta
tion on campus, with slave trans
mitters set up to convert the
signal into AM in order to make
it available to more students.
An additional consideration in
the discussion \yas the acceptance
by the board 7 of trustees of an
FM transmitter and antenna free
of charge for College use. The
offer, was made by the Gable
Broadcasting Company of Altoona
which has dropped FM transmis
sion in order to go into television.
However, the trustees did not
commit themselves as to how the
equipment would be used. It has
been estimated, the transmitter
and antenna are worth approxi
mately $24,000.

The amazing height
of Remington Teeny
Remington Feeny's money went to' his feet.
Being extremely cautious, he hid his money in
his shoes so he 1 could always keep it with him.
By the time he was 48, he was nine feet tall.
Money can bemused to grow on, but not neces
sarily by Mr. Feeny’s method. For instance,
more than 1,100,000 people have shown their
faith in the future of the Bell Telephone System
by investing their money in it. About one-fifth
of them are Bell employees who bought stock
through a payroll savings plan.
It takes both money and people to keep the
Bell System growing and improving to meet
our country’s telephone needs. That’s why col
lege men with tbe -right qualifications can'find
interesting opportunities with us—in engineer
ing, research, operating and administration.
Your campus placement office will be glad
