PAGE TWO Talking It Over... FATHER AND TEENAGE DAUGHTER Dinah, played by Nancy May and John Anislon lalk over Ihelr lines just before the open ing performance of Philadelphia Story last night in Schwab auditorium. Review Players Present 'Philadelphia Story' Daily Collegian Copy Editor Players wrapped an ironic but not too believable story around the second marriage of Tracy Lord in the Philadelphia Story lasi night in Schwab Auditorium. Although the cast did an excel failed to completely lasso their ai Betty Rice succeeded in port des-like daughter of the well-to do Main Line family with con siderable spirit. However, she seemed a little lost for sincere acting in the more difficult and emotional roles when she is told she had a heart of stone by her father, fiance, and former hus band. Frederick Hand, as Tracy’s first husband Dexter, makes himself an unpredictable and likeable man. Against the all too beauti ful scenery, he makes his jovial remarks and carries off his part of the serious scene with Tracy Quite well. At times his lines be come stilted and unnatural. Not Clear Mickey Kahn, as Tracy’s fi ance George, seems to be tack ling his role of inward struggle with an embroidery needle rather than a scalpel. He gets across the idea that ne is not a well inte grated member of the Lord’s so cial class, but fails to make his motives for waiting to marry Tracy quite clear. Nancy May, as Dinah, captures the teenage spirit beautifully, and adds much of the play’s life and gaiety. She kept the audience laughing with her antics, although some of her lines fly upward rath er than to her audience.

It is question able whether this is due to her acting or the role she had to play. Mike Connor and Liz } the maga zine reporters were complete op posites as far as acting went. Cliff Crosbie did a notable job as the hard boiled reporter and carried his role out well. Jean MrVicker, Mike’s cohort the photographer, lacked the acting to support her snippy lines or the role of hust ling photographer. Willie Adds Spice Uncle Willie, played by Domi nic Landro, added a little spice to the play, carrying out his lines with real feeling and spirit. John Aniston, as Tracy’s father, and Dick Land, as brother Sandy, both did good supporting roles. Others in the supporting cast were Dan Long as Thomas; Shit ley Stern as Elsie; Mai Gable as Mac the night watchman; and Boyd Freedman as Dr. Pasons. The play gave its audience a pleasant evening’s entertainment. (Continued on page eight) THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA IFC Doting Revisions Approved Three of four revisions in the Interfraternity Council dating code were approved by the Sen ate subcommittee on student af fairs, Wednesday. The revisions were presented to the committee by John Carpenter, recently re tired IFC president. Carpenter’s first proposed re vision deals with the hours at which women are permitted in fraternities on the four big week-) ends of the year. Under tne pres ent constitution, women are not permitted in fraternities before noon on Saturday and Sunday. .New Hours Granted Under the new revision, women will be permitted in the house at 10 a.m. Sunday bur the nooh deadline will remain for Satur day. The committee felt that because of the large number of students who have Saturday classes, there would be a conflict. A second change made in the code was a wording technicality. Under the present constitution wording in regards to the hiring of housemothers reads: “Their hours shall be determined at the beginning of each year.’’ New. Amendment Under the new amendment, the code reads: “Their renumer ation and hours shall be de termined . . .” The third change, an addition to the dating code, pertains to the eligibility of chaperons. The new addition to the constitution reads: “When parents visit the fraternity at time's other than for social events, they mgy act 4s chaperons for women guests who have accompanied them-” O. Edward Pollbck, assistant dean'in charge of fraternity af fairs, said that the above addition has been followed in practice but never appeared in tne constitu tion. Pollock said that the revisions will be effective immediately.
