Film lo Be Shown
When completed, the film will
be shown throughout the state in
an effort to interest high school
students in a career in journalism
and in their matriculation at a
college' that has a journalism de
partment, not necessarily the Uni
versity.
. The picture stars a University
student, Jon Barry Wilder, soph
omore in arts and letters from
Scranton, as both the reporter and
the executive. Sally Miller, junior
in home economics from Con
neautville, is serving as a produc
tion assistant.
Films are also made for certain
outside organizations’ including
both state and federal agencies’,
educational groups and other non
profit . public service organiza
tions.
Facilities Include
Facilities of the studio include
a large-sized shooting or sound
stage, an editing room fully
equipped to handle all editing,
splicing and synchronization of
sound track and picture frames
and a viewing room in which
rushes (portions of film that have
just been shot) are viewed and
evaluated.
There is sound equipment for
recording on quarter-inch mag
netic tape, 16 mm. magnetic film,
16 mm. optical film and standard
discs.
A narration studio is used to
produce post-narration on films.
A film without narration is pro
jected on a screen, and the narra
tor reads off his (description or
explanation of the film and it is
recorded on tape. This sound is
then synchronized with the film.
The studio, a division of general
extension, is under the direction
of Frank S. Neusbaum, adminis
trative head. Neusbaum has been
the head and also the producer
since the studio’s inception.
Professor Teaches

is now teaching a course in mo
tion picture techniques. This is the
beginning of an emphasis on mo
tion picture arts by the Depart
ment of" Theatre Arts using the
facilities of the Motion Picture
and Recording. Studio.
Under Neusbaum, University
films have been selected by the
Library of Congress for the Na
tional Film Archives. Awards re

To Develop Man's Knowledge !
The University's overall objec-,
tive in a program of general edu- |
cation, as stated by the University
Senate, is to develop a man’s!
knowledge and capacities rather j
than to train him for a particular
puroose such as an occupation.
Whether the.new programs will
be required or optional has not
been determined yet. This will be
left up to the faculty, Dr. Cutler
said.
Generalizations on Russia
Warned Against by Prof
William Harkins, alumnus of the University and assis
tant professor of Slavic languages at Columbia University,
warned last night against generalizations about Russia, and
against attributing to Russian political control what may b®
cultural influence. ’
Harkins spoke before the Russian Area Study Club and
the Slavic Club. His talk con-i
cerned his experiences on a trip!
to Russia last summer. j
It is easy for foreigners to say!
that every bad thing about Russia!
is due to the strict regimentation!
imposed by the Soviet govern-!
ment, he said, but this is many
times not true.
Dislike Modern Art
Harkins cited the Russian at
titude toward modern art. Rus
sians, especially the young people,
denounce modem art, he said.
This follows the party line, but
the party line is not directly re
sponsible for it.
Harkins explained that there is
little .in Marxist teaching about
art, and the Russians have had to
establish a policy on their own.
Without a strict policy to go on,
the attitude toward art tends to
be very conservative. They are
conservative, he said, because
they are not sure what is good.
Russians Very Friendly
Harkins said that the Russians
were very friendly. Foreigners
are very popular especially in
Leningrad, he added. Here stu
dents would approach him on the
streets to. practice their English,
or just to talk to an American.
They could always identify him
by his clothes, he explained.
“There is a mania for American
jazz among the young people be
hind the Iron Curtain. This mania
seems to represent a fantastic
land beyond the sea,” he added.
Shows Color Slides
Harkins showed numerous color
slides he had taken on the Rus
sian trip. There was very little
resistance to taking pictures, he
said, and the only restriction im
posed was that he was not al
lowed to take pictures from an
airplane. ,
He was told by his guide that
he could not take photographs of
bridges, but he added that no one
seemed very concerned about this
and he could have taken the
photos if he had wanted to.
