Here's The Essence Of Three Plays On Playmakers ' Series By Brooksie Popkins "How does anyone ever write a play?" is a common question. People will admit plays don't come out of the clear blue sky, but they often wonder how the playwright gets started. Here is a little insight into the beginnings of the plays which will appear on the Playmakers Bill of Experimental, Friday night. "Through a Glass Darkly" has roots that began several years ago in a Detroit factory where Play wright Elinor Hayes Martin worked. After graduating from Wayne Uni versity with a BA in speech, Mrs. Martin worked for a while in Excello, a factory which turns out airplane parts. There she worked and lived side by side with women from all sec tions of the country and from all types of environments. She watched these women work to gether, noticed sociological tension Of WGA undergraduate women voting, Ruth Dun Next speaker of the Coed Senate will be Lib Schofield, who won the post over Meadie Montgomery by a vote of 306 to 297. Miss Montgomery automatically becomes a member of the Senate. This week's vote was by far the largest ever polled in coed elections, with over 600 ballots cast. Last year only 45 per cent of the coeds voted. Candidates on the CICA-Chi Omega slate won almost twice as many posts as did those put up by the Pan-Hellenic bloc. The former took six of the major coed offices, as against nine taken by Pan-Hell candidates. Eight of the 12 coed senators elected were put up by CICA-Chi Omega. Tuesday's record vote was attribut ed to intense campaigning by both sides and to the fact that ballot boxes were placed in every dormitory. All candidates won by close margins. Other New Officers Newly-elected secretary of WGA is "Twig" Branch, who defeated Evelyn Davis for the post by a vote of 331 to 260. Travis Hunt defeated Viola Hoyle as treasurer of WGA by a vote of 326 to 272. Frances Bleight, the defeated can- didate in the race for the WGA presi dency, automatically becomes vice president of the association. President of the Women's Athletic Association will be Joyce Fowler. She defeated Barbara Boyd by a 341 to 247 margin. Viola Hoyle was unop posed for the vice-presidency, as was Ann Christian for the treasurership. Gerry Smith is secretary of the asso ciation, winning over Nicki Nicol by a vote of 309 to 277. Betty Marks defeated Carlisle Cashion to be reelected town repre sentative to Honor Council. Elected to the Student Legislature as representatives from WGA were Ida Prince and Betty Edwards, who won over Nookie McGee and Eugenia Pafe. Coed Senators Newly-elected members of the Coed Senate are Alice Turnage, town; Sally Bryan and Barbara Boyd, Al derman; Lib Henderson, Archer; Ann Osborne and Mary Hill Gaston, Carr; Lillian Leonard and Jane Richardson, See COEDS CROWD, page U.

When Mrs. Martin came to Chapel Hill this year to work on her MA in dramatic art, she looked back on her life in Excello, and de cided to put her fellow workers into a play. "Of course, I cannot say the women in this play are direct char acter sketches. Rather they are com posite characters of many of the people I have known and worked with." Cast in "Through a Glass Darkly" is Ann Campbell as Ann, William H. Andrews III as Bob, Barbara Schus ter as Edith, Elizabeth Johnson as Martha, June L. Kane as Mable, and Sarah Spratt as Sarah.
