Open Stage to Be Used The temporary open stage built for "An Inspector Calls," is a mod ern concept as .well as a return to a classical form of theatre. Built along the lines of the Eliza bethan stage at Stratford, On tario, the open stage juts out from th - e traditional proscenium of Schwab Auditorium, bringing the play into the same room as the audience. Some of the greatest plays of 'both East and West have been written and played on such sim ple acting platforms. The new stage, according to Kelly Yeaton, associate professor of dramatics, represents a "direct attack on the sight and sound problems in Schwab Auditorium, which have been hindering Play ers' designers and technicians since the auditorium was first used for plays." The open stage is also used to lend dignity, simplicity, and sig nificance to the action in "An Inspector Calls."

' Mike-- (Continued from page four) HUB for a subject—it's got those ! sleek, modern lines.) A study of these people is inter esting. Yesterday a young coed was perched atop a bench in the West Dorm courtyard peering in tently (in other words, squinting) at that most beautiful and at the same time, most puzzling of all edifices on the campus, Willard Hall. This young would-be artist, dressed in a very arty costume, unfastened this gaze after about thirty seconds and then began stroking gracefully on a small notebook. After half a dozen strokes she again began staring at Willard. Then six more strokes. Then a gaze: then strokes. A masterpiece in the creation! I always thought Willard was square. MORE OBSERVATIONS Having to take a Philosophy 1 blue book this morning has forced me to read a certain book by Irving Copi, lately. While perus ing this book. I ran across an example of some sort of fallacy. It concerned the young boy who. after brutally slaying his father and mother with an axe, threw himself on the mercy of the court because he was an orphan. Come to think of it, there is something wrong with reasoning. The well-known grapevine has brought to this corner com plaints of the rules which the housing department has placed on •men and women dormitory students. These gripes especial ly concern the objects which are not allowed to be kepi in rooms. and the way these illegal objects are removed. This is one time when the dean of women's office won't be able to take the blame.
