Review 4 Cherr By DEXTER HUTCHINS For the. first time this season the Mateer actors achieved complete acting “together ness” in the production of •'The Cherry Orchard” which which opened Monday at Stand ing Stone. A perfect artistic balance of acting, directing and set design made ‘‘The Cherry Orchard” a worthwhile theater experience. The story line of the "Or chard" was somewhat trivial, but the symbolism of each char acter and of much of the dia logue made the play an inter esting and comprehensive study of the social and political forces Road Traffic Blocked ul Period •llock Road may be blocked, beginning eriod. i to close the road temporarily to thru ade Sunday when Albert E. Diem, vice president for business adminis tration, returns from his vaca tion. Yesterday workmen drilled holes in the macadam road for posts. The road will be blocked at the Frazier St. intersection near Willard Hall and at the west end of the Old Main parking lot near the rear of Schwab auditorium. If the" test is conducted, it will be for trial period only, Dr. El wood F. Olver, director of the Division of Safety, said. The reason it will presumably be tested beginning sometime next week will be the lack of heavy traffic on the road during the final weeks of post-session. “This is the best time to test it,” Olver said, "as the trial will create less of an inconvenience now than during the regular school session. The University's Board of Trustees approved a request to . study the feasibility of closing Pollock Road at its January meeting. At that time, it was ~ staled that the road would be closed beginning in Septem ber, 1960. Closing the entire road from Shortlidge Rd. to Burrowes St. would prohibit campus trucks from making deliveries and en tering parking lots from Pollock Rd. New entrances and road ways would have to be construct ed from Curtin Roa.d or would have tQ connect present lots and driveways. The test period will determine how advisable it would be, to close the road beginning in Sep tember, Olver said. Three costs will be placed at each of the blockades and lame reflector signs will be posted. The closing of Pollock Road should help alleviate the overall campus traffic problem, Olver said. “To become permanent the closing will have to do some good,” he said. The closing, if begun next week, will definitely be removed during peak rush days on cam pus, such as during Orientation Week Sunday when 4400 stu dents and their parents will ar rive on campus. The closing will force traffic to circle around the campus per imeter on Curtin Road or College Avenue to get from one end of the campus to another. Orchard' Has Togetherness which culminated in the Rus sion Revolution and destruction of czarist rule. Charlotte Jones gave her best performance of the season as Ranevskaya, simple Russian no blewoman who finds her world disintegrating due to terrible and mysterious forces which she could not understand. The quiet and pathetic dignity of Miss Jones’ characterization conveyed a powerful expression of the na ture of the crumbling Russian aristocracy at the turn of the cen tury. Janice Champagne, as ’Anya, a symbol of young Russia and its 'mpe for the future, gave a char acteristic out standing perform ance in her most important role this season.

I displayed outstanding poise for a student actress and her ability to capitalize on "stage business" offset her complete lack of voice control and ability to convey emotional feeling. Ken Evans’ portrayal of Fiers, Madame Rzhevskaya's ancient dy ing butler, was his best of the season. He showed admirable body control, something he lacked in all his previous parts, even to the point of not twitching his toes when he died with his boots on. Richard G. Mason’s set design was a “rags to riches” classic. Working with crude materials and a limited stage area, Mason has consistently created effective atmosphere and staging for Ma teer plays this season. The sets for “The Cherry Orchard" were no exception to this record. A non-returnable fee of $l5 per semester will be charged for obtaining student park- Davis’ speech was read to the Bth annual Pennsylvania pgtatt Study Habits Health Conference by Dr. Charles jL. Wilbar Jr., secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health. Davis was detained in Harrisburg on official business. "The study of automobile ac cidents to determine their un derlying causes and how ih§y may be prevented is now being recognized as a public health function," Davis said. "Efforts to establish physical fitness standards for motor vehicle drivers is another long-needed step in the right direction." The Lieutenant Governor called control of air pollution without jeopordizing industrial expansion a vital need, because of gases and fumes produced "by automobiles and industrial plants. He also urged persons in health fields to begin immediate planning for the populations will need. Dr. Justus D. Rice. director of medical research at the Wip throp Laboratories in New York City, told the conference yesterday that many of the ills now placing mankind will be eliminated if medical scientists continue their teamwork efforts for public health goals. "The cooperation of chemists, biologists, pharmacologists and clinicians banded together as members of a team was the most significant single factor in. the spectacular progress against dis ease in the 1950’5,” Rice said. He predicted that some but not all forms of cancer will yield to medical treatment. v Careful Evaluation See Page 4 ing permits on campus beginning in September.
