Summer Playhouse
To Offer Hit Shows
"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and "Diary of Anne Frank" will
be the feature productions at Standing Stone Playhouse this
summer
Both the famous plays will have 2 week runs during
the summer season, which wi
This will be the second season
for Standing Stone under Univer
sity auspices. It was formerly Ma
leer Playhouse. The playhouse is
located at Neffs Mills, about 18
miles southwest of campus.
According to a tentative sched
uled announcement by Dr. Wal
ter H. Walters, head of the De
partment of Theatre Arts, the
Beason will open with Eugene O'-
Neill's "Desire Under the Elms."
"Three Men on a Horse" by John
Cecil Holm and George Abbott
will play the week of June 29.
One play, "Houso by the
Lake," will be produced for the
first time in this country. The

liams' "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"
will run for two weeks beginning
July 20 and "The Diary of Anne
Frank" by Frances Goodrich and
Albert Hackett will play two
weeks starting Aug. 3.
The season will close with
"The biggest challenge
a man has to face is himself"
"Men and businesses are alike in one respect," says
Gerald A. Parsons, 30-year-old marketing and per
sonnel development specialist. "Their success de
pends to a great extent on how well they respond to
challenge. And I've found that the biggest challenge
a man has to face on his job is not the competition of
others but the far more important one of develop
ing himself to his fullest capabilities.
"During my four years with General Electric,
I've had plenty of opportunity for self-development.
Challenging training assignments at five different
locations within the company have given me a
broader understanding of my career area. In my
present job I have the benefit of working with ex
perts, both in establishing long-range goals and in
helping to achieve them. I've found that working
toward future potential is vital in the development
of successful businesses and successful men."
1 last from June 22 to Aug. 24.
Anton Chekov's "The Cherry
Orchard" beginning Aug. 17 and
Noel Coward's "Nude with
Violin" starting Aug. 24.
Walters said there will be a
company of about six professional
actors working the summer plays.
The remaining parts will be
filled by students taking summer
school work in acting and pro
duction.
Contracts for the professional
troupe have not been completed,
he said.
As during last summer, the
plays will be directed by Max
Fischer.

the Senate Subcommittee on
Methods for Improving In

mittee on Religious Studies.
He is working on a book
which will be titled "Experi

Wisdom."
As a final word of advise
Finch said, "Students should
continue to think as hard as
they can—and on that basis be
as generous as possible."
Young men such as Gerry Parsons are important
to the future of companies like General Electric and
to the growth of America's dynamic, competitive
enterprise economy. Our nation's progress will de
pend more and more upon those forward-looking
individuals who continue to develop to their fullest
capabilities during their lifetime.
That is why General Electric provides a climate
for individual progress with opportunity for in
creasing knowledge and skills for all of its em
ployees, including 30,000 college graduates. For it
is only as individuals meet the challenge of self
development that there continues, to be progress for
a business, an industry, or a nation.

Weightlifters
Lose To
Maryland
The Penn State Weightlifting
Club moved a little closer to var
sity status last week, even though
it lost to Maryland, 32-26, at Rec
Hall Saturday.
Acting coach Fred Bellas said
that he was very pleased with
his team's performance especially
after just four weeks of practice.
Maryland, meanwhile, had been
in dual competition since Sep
tember.
Bellas feels that with a little
more practice and depth, his
team can compete with the best
weightlifting squads in the
country.
Penn State's athletic director,
Ernest B. McCoy, has expressed
interest in the club and is giving
some thought to making it a var
sity sport because of the Olympic
interest in weightlifting.
There are seven divisions in
intercollegiate weightlifting
123.5, 132. 148, 165, 181, 198 and
heavyweight.
Points are awarded for first
(5). second (3) and third (1) places.
Each entrant is allowed three at
tempts at each of the three Olym
pic lifts—the press, snatch and
the clean jerk.
A total composed of the high-
