'ltalian Straw Hat'
To Open Friday
French comedy is full of surprises and no one can really
tell what is going to happen next, according to Joseph Ser
vello, who has the leading role of Ferdinand in the Player's
production of "An Italian Straw Hat" which opens Friday
at Center Stage.
Other French comedies in which Servello has appeared'
are "Carnival of Thieves" which,
lhe did several years ago for,,
,Players, and "Tovarich" which he,
played in this past summer at the
!Community Theater.
Servello said that in "An Ital
ian Straw Hat" there is a bit of
satirizing, but it doesn't get in the
!way of the comedy. He said that
each character in the play has
(something different about them
!that adds to the play.
"French comedy isn't a new
thing," said Servello, "but there
is a certain flare which the di
rector has to pull out of his
character." Servello said that he
feels as though director Frank
S. Neusbaum has pulled out this
flare in "An Italian Straw Hat."
The part of Ferdinand is com
'pletely different from that of
"Gramps" which Servello played
in the Players' opening produc-
Ilion of their fall season, "On Bor
rowed Time."
The biggest difference between
them is that Gramps was a char
acter with a strong personality
who won in a struggle to get
"death up a tree." Ferdinand is
,very young and weak character
;who gets very confused on his
!wedding day.

MEMO TO: Editor,
FROM: Gus Tyler, Director,
ILGWU Training Institute
Subject: A CAREER WITH A CHALLENGE.
Your readers, especially those under the
age of 35, have been a source of talent, in
spiration and raw material for us during
the last few years. Each year, we have heard
from your readers in response to our appeal
for dedicated young men and women to work
in the labor movement.
We are convinced that in every generation
there is a segment of young people who would
like to play a courageous and active role in
changing the shape of things, and we are
therefore renewing our invitation to a
career that others—in this decade—have
found a rewarding way of life.
The International Ladies' Garment Work
ers' Union conducts its own "West Point,"
to prepare young men and women for careers
in labor leadership. The one-year course
combines classroom and field work. Those
who complete the course are assigned to a
full-time job with the union.
With the job comes the challenge—to prO7
vide the kind of dedicated and ethical
leadership that will make the American
labor movement the creative social force it
seeks to be.
The Training Institute is now in its tenth
year. 140 of its graduates now hold union
office in the ILGWU. Virtually all started
as organizers—to learn the labor movement
at the grass roots. While some continue at
this mission as their first and' enduring
love, others branch out to take' on respon
sibilities as business agents, local union
managers, educational and political di
rectors; area supervisors, time study ex
perts, etc.
There is nothing soft or cushy about any
of these jobs. But then we are not looking
for young people who want the easy plush
life. We want those who will enjoy the sting
of challenge.
To these. we open the doors of the In
stitute. Write before April 15: ILGWU
Training Institute, 1710 Broadway, New
York 19, N. Y.
