Lister Sinclai rShaw Festiva l

By SYLVIA SHORTHOUSEThe Shaw Festival on the UBC campus next wee k

is an advent marking many firsts . It will mean a once-in-

a-lifetime theatrical experience as well as an opportunity

to hear distinguished speakers discuss the Irish playwright .

A new page in the history of Canadian theatre will

be written with the production of "Back to Methuselah, "

being presented in its entirety for the first time in Canada .

"No other lunatics will ever want to produce 'Methu-

selah,'" Shaw said after the first production of the play

in 1922. And indeed the play has been staged only six

times. The fact that the playwright himself recognized th e

innumerable difficulties entailed in producing ,,one of the

world's longest plays, emphasizes the magnitude of the

undertaking .

The four-hour production in the UBC auditorium nex t

Friday and Saturday nights will be a condensed versio n

of the play which originally took three nights to perform .

The play will also mark another first in Vancouve r

theatre as the entire play will be staged with projecte d

scenery by CBC television set designer Cliff Robinson .

Here is the schedule of events for next wee k ' s Shaw Cen -

tennial Festival :MONDAY, JAN. 18, 12 :30—"Bernard Shaw--A Goad to

The series of events during "Shaw Week," under a

committee headed by Dr. M. W . Steinberg of the English

Department, and the UBC Fine Arts Committee unde r

B. C. Binning, will revolve around Shaw as a politica l

thinker, philosopher, dramatist and critic .

Noted Canadian playwright and dramatist Lister Sin -

clair will perform readings from the works of Shaw before

afternoon and evening audiences on Monday and Wednes-

day .Professor George Woodcock, British biographer, lit -

erary critic and broadcaster, will be one of three othe r

Shaw .The festival will be opened on Monday noon in the

personal impression of Shaw and the influence he ha s

wrought upon his generation in an address entitled "Ber-

nard Shaw—A Goad to the Intellect . "

Tuesday night Professor David Corbett of the De-

partment of Economics will speak on Shaw 's politica l

philosophy, "The Quintessence of Shaw . "

pause for a moment and consider just what it is that makesuniversity life worthwhile aside from scholarship .

The value of years spent at university in no small measurecan be judged by the number of activities that take place out-aide the lecture room and yet within the university community .Perhaps because of its fortunate location, or for a number o fother reasons, a very real community exists here at UBC .No university in Canada offers a more extensive and diversi-fied program of events than does this university. Many aresponsored solely by the students, many by the faculty andmany are jointly sponsored .

Perhaps the activity most unique to UBC is the noonhour lecture sponsored by anyone of a multitude of clubs .Today for instance, Dr. Brock Chisholm, former head of theWorld Health Organization, will speak in Physics 200 at noon .Dr . Chisholm is just one of a parade of interesting speakerswho have appeared and will continue to appear before lunch-munching audiences .

Earlier this week the UBC Alumni Players Club, wholast year brought honour to the university by winning theDominion Drama Festival with the production of 'Tlie Cru-cible," presented this year's production of "Liliom" in theregional trials of the same festval .

. The School of Architecture scored another first this wee kwith the Campus Art Gallery in the basement of the Libarythat depicts man as he is influenced by the elements of archi-tecture. It is a breath-taking display unique to most NorthAmerican universities, and will run for two more weeks andshould be seen by every student .

The Special Events Committee has done an outstandin grob this year in presenting many renowned personalities an dthe program for this term ranging from Dr. Chisholm to theModern Jazz Quartet promses to be even better .

The intramural program is bigger than ever and we haves hustling, winning basketball team that calls for a crowdedgym each game time.

Next week the McGoun Cup debates sound off with ou rteam competing here and at Alberta and we hope that thisyear the Cup will reside on this campus . At the same tim enext week Mardi Gras in Outer Space will be in full swin gat the Commodore and it is expected that over $2000 will beraised to aid those stricken with muscular dystrophy .

The outstanding event at the University this year wil lbe the Shaw Centennial program which begins Monday andends Saturday. We are the first university in the world tomark the 100th anniversary of the birth of George Bernar dShaw and the program that is planned is worthy of any uni-versity in the world . Elsewhere on these pages the programis described in detail . A wide enough program is planned t oprovide some interest for every student on the campus .

MARJORIE MORNINGSTA R

The Girl Who '

Went Back Homy

The moral is: if one's destiny

is suburbia, there is no pointin seeking to "be an actress"rather Ikea "a fat dull house-wife with a big engagementring." The moral is also thata man who has written an in-teresting book from a mascu-line point of view (Thr CaineMutiny) shouldn't push his luck

too far by trying !anyone theprocedure. Af one point in he rlife, Marjorie Morgensternfinds that she is "very boredwith the problems of being agirl." Herman Wouk's problemis plainly that he has neverbeen one, and he cannot quit emanage to tell a girl's storyfrom a girl's point of view.Marjorie Morningstar is soapopera with psychological andsociological props .

It's heroine starts out as alovely seventeen-year-old, who ,having made the transitionfrom the Bronx to Central Par kWest, is reluctant to take th enext step. She refuses to be"the respectable girl, the mothe rof the ,next generation, all trick-ed out to appear gay and care-free and girlish, but with a ter-rible threatening dullness jut-ting through, like the grayrocks under the spring grassin Central Park ." She yearn sinstead to flower from Morgen-stern to Morningstar '4. , . herdrab name turned into an in-cantation, a name that coul dblaze and thunder on Broad -way." Eventually, she marries

We have just picked two weeks out of the university year well, the vision fades; butto describe and we have by no means mentioned every activity there's a long, long trail (565going on. We at UBC can be proud of the full and busy life pages) minding into the land

of her dreams; and while everyof our community and any student that is not participating step ,floe takes' in the directio nin it is sadly short-changing himself .

The New Republic

Reviewed by Nora Magid more surely on the road toMamaroneck, there are signi-ficant detours .

The first is to an adult campher mother labels Sodom whereshe meets Noel and Life . Herbest friend briefs her : "Really ,your folks have given you aterrible upbringing. You seemto live in some pink-and-whitedreamworld, where all the menare Galahads and all the girlsare lily maids of Astolat, ex-kept they eat kosher food .Margie, you're an infant . "Momentarily adrift, she has tobecome an unsuccessful actressand an unwilling mistress be-fore she can become Shirley ,the prototype of all she hasbeen raised to want .

The story is told in the thirdperson. Mr. Wouk tries to se eit all obliquely from her per-spective, and the effort provestoo much. Marjorie is discon-certingly girlish ("It was aterrific release to kiss Noel") .Mr. Wouk also thinks that girl sis their teens wear rouge be -fore they wear lipstick, walkarm-in-arm, call one anotherdear and darling and baby ,punctuate their sentences wit hgee and gosh and gad, thin kexclusively in hyperbole.

The men are as unbelievabl eas the ladies . Noel, the GreekGod, who is dedicated to dis-solution is nothing if not artic-ulate ; he regularly announceshis own motivation—his crap•pled arm, his Oedipus complex ,his early seduction by an olde rwoman, his anger at and at-traction to what constitutes be-ing Jewish . Set up in oppositionto him is Mike Eden, the otherman, whose grandfather hastechnically freed him by chang-ing the family name of Ein-stein,but Mike carries hisburden of guilt and he atone sby smuggling Jews out of Ger-many--the only political note

in a book notable for omission-since it takes place in the '30't,

The general problem is thatwhere Marjorie wants Noel fo ra husband, he wants her fora mistress, He relinquishes her.

By the time he is ready t omarry her, it is too late. MikeEden has freed her for thetriumph of conventional des-tiny--a successful prosperou sprofessional man, who can. givther a white house in the sub- 'urbs . The husband takes herdespite the fact that they bothrecognize her to be a cripple,morally. She knows that shewill never again see on hiyface the pure happiness thathad shone there during thedrive across the George Wash-ington Bridge in the sunset . Heloved her. He took her as shewas, with her deformity . . .that could no longer be helped;a permanent crippling like acrooked arm .

T he environment Woukcreates is vivid and enormousl ycomplex . It crouches on econ-omic mobility—the moves fromthe Bronx to the Upper Wes tSide to the suburbs, the com-promises at Hunter betweenthe Jewish and the Christiansor'Srities for pol?tical control ,and the relationship of CityCollege to Ivy League students ;the conflicts between the older,immigrant generation--sweet ,squashed . and loving—and theyounger, growing up in a worl dthat includes Freud and perkand the Unitarian Church : theflight from and to Jewishness.

The fascinating c u l t u r a lsc ne in, however, backdropto the banal low story.

Perched on the shoulder o fNorman Young, Bernard sup-ervised all work . By pokingabout his rat-like nose he per-sonally inspected all paint-pots .

In return for this exactin glabor, Bernard received freeboard and room in the scen-

ery shop .

Conflict arose between thecostume ladies, who occupyan office on the upper floor ,and the scenery men.

Said Dorothy Somerset :"Bernard got in our way. Hekept running up our legs, tug-ging at our skirts . "

So, Bernard was throw nout. Nothing has been seen o fhim since.

It is believed that NormanYoung •misses the efficien tmascot. "I like white rats,".said Young .

Back-Stage Toil sFor Methusela h

By SHIRLEY KINGThe Player's Club has the sympathies of Shaw himself ,

in undertaking the expensive mammoth production o f"Back to Methuselah . "

Shaw didn't intend it to be a money-making play .An Englishman who went to Shaw for advice on producin gthe play, received this cryptic remark : "Is your familyprovided for?"

The play is composed of seven scenes which occu rchronologically from the time of Adam and Eve to 3,000A.D . The major difficulty was making scenery which woul drepresent the various settings, according to Dorothy Som-erset, co-ordinating director for "Back to Methuselah . "

"To meet this unique scenery problem, we are usin gprojected scenery," said Miss Somerset . "This system iscomparatvely novel in Canada . "

To do this, the Player's Club engaged lighting experts ,Tom Lea and Pat Larsen, along with artist Cliff Robinson .

Working in harmony with designing of scenery werethe costume-makers, under the direction of Mrs. JessieRichardson. Volunteer-workers have been stitching an dfitting for over a month to make over 40 different costumes .

Miss Somerset said the play calls for a number of pe-culiar properties . One of these is an egg ,from which afull-grown girl must emerge . The egg is cracked open wit ha huge saw .

Another property needed is a "very beautiful" snak ewith a 36-foot tail . "We also had to collect exact sizes o fVictorian furniture," she said.

Miss Somerset said that rehearsing this month ha sbeen particularly intensive . A set-back occurred whe nwork was postponed for a month because of exams an dholidays, she said .

done by the students of th eschool . This display is so goodthat Roger Smeet, Barry Rand ,and Art Allen, who designed an dworked on the show, are goingto be interviewed on Almana cat 7 p.m. Tuesday.

?'die lie farToday, everybody's talking

about juvenile delinquents .Dick Betidoes wants t h e inflayed alive: Jack Scott wantsthem :~hopped up into littlepieces and fed to whales : ErwinSwangard wants them renderedfor tallow: Harold Weir thinksthey should be forced to learnto play cricket: and Miss LydiaArsons doesn't care what hap-pens to them, as long as Van-couver's water supply isn' tfluoridated .

All those are senlible solu-tions, but none strikes at theheart of the problem. Thetrouble with these young hood-lums is that they don't wearties. Next time a gang of hood-lums invade your party, slashesthe curtains, attacks the maid,knocks your mother's teeth out,kills the baby, kills the dog andsteals the liquor, take a goo dlook at them.

Not a man jack of them willhave a tie on. Grubby T-shirts,maybe, or turtle-neck sweaters,or one of those V-neck sweaterswith nothing on underneat hperhaps: maybe even a snoo dor two in the bunch—but nar ya tie.

Now, it's a well-known fac tthat every growing boy has hos-tile, anti-social tendencies. Dr.Nordstrool, in his penetratingstudy, "Why Johnny Can'tBreed" has demonstrated tha tevery boy wants to throw bil-liard balls at policemen andstuff chalk down his teacher' sthroat . Many do.

But exhaustive research re-vealed that not one of the casesexhibiting brutal, murderoustendencies was a habitual tiewearer. The reason, of course,is that when a boy puts on atie, he realises that he has be-come a part of society, insteadof one standing outside it .

For instance, can you imagin ea fellow wearing one of the Ti eBar's Tavia Ties (they're hand-loomed by unemployed police -men in California) smashingyour Ming vase, or kicking th erungs out of your antiquechairs?

How could a young man pou rink on your rug or slash thetop on your convertible, whenone of these slim, tweed-flecke dties was blending so winningl ywith his suit or sports jacket ?(The Tie Bar, 712 West Pander ,is the first place in town tocarry them . )

The answer of course, is thathe couldn't! A Tavia Tie make sa gentleman of anybody . If theCity Fathers would just wak eup and spend our tax dollars onties, George Archer could g oback to seising liquor from theEskimos, and the juvenile de-linquency problem would besolved.

Sixty-three people were asked the following question :

One unidentifiable individual *who . was wandering about said ,"There should be more of thatstuff around here . It's nice t olook at during noon hour . Idon't understand it, but it is nic eto look at . "

Ullysses B. Campusman, En-gineering 7, said, "This exhibi tis really unique in any universityof Canada. The whole thing i sdesigned and executed by th estudents of the School of Archi-tecture .

In spite of these limitation sa total of $129,664 .58 was spentduring the fiscal year 1954-55 .These funds were used to pro-vide 20,368 new volumes as wellas ' increased amounts of micro-print, microcards, microfilm ,sizable additions in Chinese, Jap-anese and elavonic literatureplus numerous government pub-lications .

Today, Friday the 13th is atraditionally j i n x e d day .About the safest thing wouldhave been to have stayed i nbed all day but since by th etime you read this it will al -ready be too late a list ofthings not to do is herewit hprovided .

Don't be born, get marriedor take a new job today .Don't cut your nails or visi ta sick friend . If you've al-ready turned your mattres sthis morning you won't slee ptonight. Don't go out to se auntil midnight and don't g oat all if this is your 13th trip .

The only sailor who evertried to break this last super-stition was a Mr . Isaac Harve yof Wilmington, Deleware who

named his brig the Friday ,fitted her out on a Friday an dput to sea on a Friday. Thebrig was lost in a gale a wee klater, on a Friday.

Salt is a very unlucky in-gredient today. About its onlyuse and one co-eds might beinterested in is the traditiona lthrice throwing of a handfu linto the fire with the mutter-ing of the following rhymein an undertone :"It is not this salt I wish to

burn ,It is my lover's heard to burn .That he may neither rest nor

happy be ,Until he comes and speaks t o

me."Europeans tend to be even

more superstitious about 1 3and Friday . Statistics take nshow only 2 percent of Friday

marriages taking place inEngland's midlands w h i l eParis, France, has not onlyno house numbers containing13 but people called "four-teenths" who will come at th elast minute to avoid sittin g13 at table .

Materialistic New York ,however, has a Thirteen Clu bformed of 13 members meet-ing for dinner on the 13th ofeach month at exactly 7 :1 3p .m. and so far reports noth-ing has happened .

And at UBC? A brief sur-vey conducted among the in-tellectual crop indicates that90 percent (or nine people )are not superstitious while 1 0percent (a certain sports writ-er) are or is . It's entirely upto you but I still think youshould have stayed in bed .
