Freshman were urged to appear at the next meeting for instructions on use of the flash cards.

Comedy 'My 3 Angels Opens • Collegian Copy Editor Three angelic convicts who take it upon themselves to straighten out the dire predica ment of a'n appealing, but im practical shopkeeper provide the core of the comedy “My Three Angels” which opened at Center Stage last night. The action is set in a French penal colony over the Christmas season. It takes place in the Du cotel family’s living room, back of their general store. The Players’ presentation of the Broadway hit can be likened to a tri-legged stool. The action was supported primarily by the three Gallic rascals who stole every thing including the audiences' hearts. The convicts were deftly portrayed by George Cavey, Jack Timmis and Ronald Weitz. Cavey. as Joseph, carried his role of the rollicking rascally pro- COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA Review By BECKY ZAHM Duff Hits Corruption in Leader Regime Senator James H. Duff termed the Leader administra tion “the rottenest which has ever been in Pennsylvania in my knowledge” at a press conference in Bellefonte last night. He said that the state is shot through with corruption and cited cases in Bucks and 6eaver counties to uphold his contentions. The press conference preceded a Republican dinner and rally held in the Cen tre county court house. Employees in Beaver county mills. Duff said, have been get ting salaries from the state while working at their regular jobs and doing no work of any kind for the state. As a further example of alleged corruption Duff referred to the much-publicized Darcy murder case in Doylestown in which a tavern-keeper was shot and killed during an attempted holdup. The case will have a definite bearing on the Bucks county vote. Duff said. He did not comment on whether or not the possible dis content with the State Parole Board’s ruling to commute the death sentence. Duff, who was governor at the time of the slaying called the ruling, “one of the foulest blows against the' due process of law that was ever struck.” “It only goes to show,” he add ed, “that if you have enough mon ey and political pull you can get away with murder in Pennsyl vania.” Duff, strangely enough, had little to say about his rival for the [moter with professional skill. His j two roguish cohorts delivered their roles with equal polish, al though in several places Weitz’s I leg on the stool wobbled. [ As the hapless, impractical 'shopkeeper and head of the household William Warthing does a more than competent job. Joyce Andruzak’s portrayal of his pa tient wife is done with under standing and skill. Uncle Henri Portrayed Well Mark Wallace, as Uncle Henri, the unscrupulous swindler who brings the consternation into the household, delivered a high cali ber performance. He was simul taneously arrogant, rude, and vip erous. He earned his well de served end. Patricia Rubin’s performance as the ingenue daughter of the [household was somewhat disap pointing. She was many times expressionless and unconvincing. senatorial post, Joseph Clark, for mer mayor of Philadelphia. However, he did repeat former : charges that Clark was the hand- I picked choice of Governor Leader ■ and Matthew McCloskey, a Phila delphia real estate man and one ! of the powers of the state Demo ; cratic party. William J. Greene Jr.. Phila i delphia congressman, was the choice of 51 of the 52 ward chair men in Philadelphia for the sena torial nomination. Duff said. However, he said that Leader and McCloskey stepped in and hammered the others into line thus leaving Clark with no oppo sition. Duff had a word for college students when he repeated his backing of the bill to change the voting age to 18. He said. “If the boy can risk his life on the battle field then he should be able to voice his opinion on the issues; and the only way he can do this is by voting.” He added that President Eisen hower also supported the meas ure but that it did not pass Con gress. The audience was distracted by the fact that she never did seem able to make up her mind whe ther to deliver her lines in a French or English accent. Dennis Castelli, as Paul, the nephew of Henri and Marie Lou ise's lover was indistinguished. (Continued on page five) A Special Something fo Remember this Home coming by...
