JINKS The students in the department of Dramatic Art form the working nucleus for a Playmakers pro duction such as "Carousel." Darwin Solomon (left), who will dance in the pro duction, is an example of a student who came to Carolina to study drama. A senior now, Solomon holds an undergraduate assistantship in the depart ment of Dramatic Art. In "Carousel," to be presented by the Play makers October 23, 24 and 25, he will dance the part of Billy Bigalow in the dream sequence. With the Playmakers Solomon has had training in technical production, acting, singing and dancing, writing and directing. He decided on a career in drama while attending the Robert B. Glenn High School in Winston-Salem. The drama director, Carl Clark, encouraged him to switch from nuclear physics to the theatre. The de cisive moment came when Darwin was rejected by the Air Force Academy because of a heart scar left by childhood rheumatic fever. A football player and track man, he then turned seriously to drama. While still in high school he worked with the Forsythe Players in Winston-Salem and toured the state with them in his senior year. Billy Costanza, his dance teacher from the Boston Conservatory, encouraged Darwin to continue his work in the dance. Solomon came to Chapel Hill in the fall of 1956 and enrolled in the department of Dramatic Art. As an undergraduate Solomon has received board experience and concentrated training in all phases of dramatic art. For acting experience he has appeared with the Playmakers as Dromio of Syracuse In "The Comedy of Errors", as the Cooley in "The Ex ception and the Rule", and as Joan's brother in "The Lark." He has appeared in numerous one act plays and has had small roles in such pro- ' ductions as "Inherit the Wind." His favorite role was that of Will Parker, the Kansas City visitor, in "Oklahoma!" This show gave him a chance to sing, dance and act. Solomon claims he is not a singer, but he likes to try to "sell a song." His acting experience with other producing groups include lead roles in "The Little Foxes," "Tea and Sympathy," "Seat of Adam," and "Hope is a Thing With Feathers." He has also done television work at the WUNC studios. INFIRMARY t..-.i f -,o,.. T .. m lT..r. Dink.

Comprise Nucl The young actor considers his "back stage" work with the Play makers just as important as per forming before an audience. He toured four states with "Androcles and the Linn" as actor and techni-1 cian for the Playmakers last tour ing company in 1956. Last spring he was lighting director for the Carolina Dramatic Association fes- tivaj He was property master for the Paul Green festival, and de signed a set for an original one-act play. When Solomon graduates in February he .1 not heading straight for New York as most young actors would do. "I'm going to work," he said. He has already made plans for a tour with a professional com pany in the spring. "I lov? New York, I've hitch hiked there twice just to see the shows, but I don't want to be an actor woking in a department store in New York. There are op portunities to be working in the theatre all over the country and I want to find them. The important thing in the theatre is to be work ing. You don't have to have New York for that."

Georae Marshall WASHINGTON,(-Gen. George C. Marshall, mourned through out the free world as a soldier, statesman and humanitarian, will be buried with simple honors Tuesday in Arlington National Cemetery. It was his wish that the serv ices be held to a minimum. The body of the five-star gen eral of the Army, who died at 78 last night after a long illness, will lie in repose in the Bethle hem Chapel of Washington Na tional Cathedral from noon today until noon Tuesday. Canon Luther D. Miller of the cathedral, which is Episcopalian, will conduct services Tuesday aft ernoon at the Ft. Myer Chapel, adjoining the Arlngton Cemetery. Burial will be private. By order of President Eisen hower, who called Marshall's passing "a cause for profound grief," the American Flag was lowered to half staff on all public buildings and military installa tions and will remain that way until after the last rites. Eisenhower, who owes his own rapid rise through the ranks of senior officers at the start of World War II in large part to Marshall said of his former chief: "For his unswerving devotion to the safeguarding of the secur ity and freedom of our nation, for his wise counsel and action U.S. Charges Soviet Agents Seized Envoy WASHINGTON, .fl The United States charged Saturday that "unidentified Soviet authori ties" seized the chief security of ficer of tne U.S. Embassy in Mos cow and tried to force him to spy against the United States. The State Department said threats of violence and offers of money were made in an effort to force him to act as a Soviet spy. The U.S. Embassy protested to the Soviet Foreign Ministry yes terday afternoon. The Soviet gov ernment ordered the diplomat, Russell A. Langelle, removed from Russia on grounds that he had en gaged in espionage against the So viet Union. The United States rejected the Soviet accusation against Langelle, but the State Department said he and his family will leave Moscow soon. An order lor ouster of a diplo mat by the host nation has to be obeyed by his home government under diplomatic procedure. The note of protest said Lan gelle was seized by five men in civilian clothing at 9 a.m. (Moscow time) yesterday, forced into an au tomobile and driven to a building on Vorovskovo Street where he was detained for one hour and 45 minutes. He was accused there of espionage against the Soviet Un ion. "When Mr. Langelle refused to Radio Club Offers Free Message Home To Folks All North Carolina students who wish to evade the awesome task of writing home may send a mes sage to their parents, through the UNC Amateur Radio Club. The Committee on Academic Af fairs, of which Norman B. Smith is chairman, will have a booth in "Y" Court tomorrow through Fri day from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. They will take messages, anything stu dents wish to tell their parents, which will be transmitted by the UNC Amateur Radio Club to ham operators in or near the home town. The ham operators will then telephone the message to the pa rents. There is only one catch to this. The message must include a re quest that parents vote for the Bond Issue of Oct. 27. and driving determination in times of grave danger, we are lastingly in hLs debt." Marshall served as Army chief of staff during World Wrar II and later as secretary of state and secretary of defense. He was the author of the postwar Marshall Plan which brought him the No bel Prize in 1953. He died at Walter Reed Army Hospital of age complicated toy strokes and kidney disease. In the waning years of his life Marshall declined to write a book of memoirs, saying he did not wish to profit personally from his public service and did not want to harm others who might still be living. But he did help compile a vast collection of documents and other material, including 40 hours of recorded observations, rem iniscences and other dictated memoranda. This data will be made public at the discretion of the George C. Marshall Research Founda tion at Virginia Military Institute, his alma mater. The foundation was established six years ago to collect and preserve a record of Marshall's life and service. ' Tributes poured in. Eisenhower sent a personal message of con dolence to Marshall's widow, Mrs. Katherine Tupper Marshall. In addition he directed Gen. enter into any conversation with them, they began to threaten him," the note said. "They asserted that Mr. Langelle's diplomatic immuni ty had been revoked and that he therefore was subject to imprison ment. "They threatened him with phy sical violence. They also threaten ed to take unspecified action against his wife and three small children, who reside with him in Moscow. "When Mr. Langelle continued to refuse to enter into conversa tion, the men then sought at? length to enlist his cooperation in under- j taking intelligence activities on be half of the Soviet Union against the United States and promised him monetary reward." Langelle, 37, is a native of St. Louis, Mo. His present home ad dress was given by the State De partment as 279 Taylor Ave. Long Beach, Calif.

Former President Harry S. Tru man, on a speaking trip in Texas, was visibly saddened by news of Marshall's death. "He was a great general, a. great secretary of state, and a great secretary of defense," Tru man said. "As a military man, he was the best since the days of Robert E. Lee." Former President Herbert Hoover called Marshall "an out standing figure in American life." "He will be remembered with gratitude by people all over the world," Hoover said in Nw York. Marshall's death leaves only two five-star Army generals: Douglas MacArthur and Omar N. Bradley. The Navy has one re maining five-star Admiral of the lleet: Chester W. Nimitz. Eisen hower resigned his commission. Among the honorary pallbear ers at Marshall's Funeral will be M. Sgt. James W. Powder, 62, who served the general as aide, driver and friend from 1934 until 1945.

U b 4s& 0 B New Spread Clips Tarheel Wing By ELLIOTT COOPER (Special to the Daily Tar Heel) COLLEGE PARK, Md. A fired up Maryland team sent a lethar fic Carolina squad to the show ers here yesterday afternoon drag ging a 14-7 defeat behind it. The Tar Heels were pushed from one end of the field to the other as the versatile Terrapin offense did everything but score the num ber of touchdowns it rightfully de served. Maryland controlled the entire game with the exception of part of the fourth quarter. The win ners rolled up 19 first downs as they gained a total of 358 yards against a Tar Heel defense that didn't know whether it was com ing or going. The lone Carolina score of the day came in the first period when, end Al Goldstein blocked a pass thrown by Terp halfback Richard Novak, then picked it off in the air and raced 40 yards to the goal line to score. Bob Shupin kicked the extra point and the Tar Heels were finished for the day. Maryland Handicapped itself in the first half by losing two fum bles when they were in the midst of driving for the Carolina goal. Had it not been for this the Terps would have wrapped up the game by halftime. The winners got their first touch down in the second quarter to tie the score after 30 minutes of play. Their last tally came in the final period and they were threatening to get another one at the very end as they got the ball all the way to the Tar Heel six before time ran cut. The Heels were extremely Jucky not to be behind at halftime as the Terrapins eompletly outclassed them in every department. Caro- lina looked lethargic and sluggish and could not cope with the vari- ety of offensive formations that Maryland threw against them. Actuary both of the first half touchdowns came as the result of intercepted passes as neither team could muster an actual scoring drive. Carolina won the toss at the slait of the game and gained six yards in three plays before be ing forced to punt. The Terps took Jack Cummings' kick and rolled up two first downs, get ting all the way to the Carolina 30 before Gene Verardi fumbled and Cummings recovered. Again the Tar Heels could not move the ball and Cummings was forced to punt. This time the Terps took the ball on their own 40 and marched down to the Car olina 26 where their drive was halted on Fourth and 13 from the NC 26. Vincent Scott attempted a field goal but it fell short. The Tar Heels then put the ball in play on their own 20 and after three plays could get no more than one yard. Cummir.gs punted to the 41. On the second play from scrimmage Goldstein blocked Ncvak's pass, captured U-ie re- j buund and ran it into the end zone. Shupin's kick with just a little j over a minute text in the quarter made it 7-0 for the Heels.- Just a few minutes later light ning struck again as Ray Farris was hit attempting to pas's and the deflection was caught by Terp guard Tom Gunderman on the Carolina 33. . Alter ge'ting this break Mary land wasted little time in going the remaining 32 yards to tie up the score. In five running plays, three by Jim Joyce and two by Dwayne Fletcher, the .winners had six points. Joyce score the TD on a 12-yard burst over his own right side as he lugged Wade Smith and Cum mings with him for the last two yards. Scott booted the pat to tie the contest at 7-7. AH this time the Tar Heels had Z2h eT r Formation one without a first down but they finally picked up one aiter the Terps kicked off. On this drive, which carried to the Terps 36 be fore a baeklield in motion penalty forced the. Heels to kick, Carolina ticked up its only two first downs cft the entire half. Th-e Terps' winning score cli maxed a C3 yard drive which was begun late in the third quarter. Wuh third string quarterback Dale Betty directing the attack, Marylnad relied in for the mark er in nine plays. Betty, whose 32 yard run was the big gainer of the march, cap ped the march with a 9 yard pass to Bcb Gallagher. Scott again converted and the Terps led 14-7 alter 2:14 of, the peiiod had elasped. After this score the Tar Heel finally came to life and staged two drives which looked like they might end in a Carolina touchdown. On the first one the Heels moved from their 27 to the Mary lrnd 32 before Don Klochak fum bled and Rod Bredlove recover ed to end the threat.
