Tuesday, February 13, 196D THE DAILY TARHEEL 'Mancha' Troupes Arrive The hit Broadway musical MAN OF LA MANCHA will have extensive North Carolina exposure within the next two weeks. Two troupes will visit the state. Playing in Charlotte this week through Saturday night is the Jose Ferrer company. Tickets are available through Ovens Auditorium. The other traveling edition, headed by Broadway replacements David Atkinson and Patricia Marand, will make three stops in the area, beginning with a two-performance engagement this Friday at Duke. The Page Auditorium evening performance has sold out. At last reports, there were a few tickets left for the Friday matinee. On Saturday (Feb. 22) the company will go to Raleigh's Memorial Auditorium for one performance. Tickets are being sold by Thiem's Record Shop. Finally, the troupe will be appearing in the Greensboro Auditorium on Wednesday (Feb. 26) through Saturday (March 1). Ticket requests should be addressed directly to the Auditorium. Toronto Exchange: In forma live. "OK, don't get wise. Just answer their questions. Don't offer any extra information. Don't give 'em any lip and you'll be over the border in 30 minutes." Over the border. Not to escape but to rendevous with 30 Canadians at the University of Toronto. We listened to our friendly "leave it to us" bus driver's advice. We lined up quietly behind the custom official's desk to state name and birthplace. We gave them some 3? hairy lips but no wisecracks 1 'si. ) and everyone passed except. . . "Damador Airan. India." Has to be one in every crowd. But the UNC grad student had all his papers, smiled innocently and quickly joined the rest of the Tar Heel Exchange group. The 23 hour bus trip was now nearly over. We had survived and believe me, it was something to survive a 2 a.m. visit to the heart of downtown D.C.'s bus station, changing buses in Elmira,N.Y., and, of course, the terrific john facilities en route. But our drivers, all eight (?) of them, were charming. Their chatter, an endless game of charades and Riggan's musical repetoire helped pass the time until we were standing on Canadian soil. Our first view of Canada was the fog over Niagara Falls. Disappointed we drove on through southern Ontario where lighted smokestacks resemble northern New Jersey. Toronto is like nothing you'll see in the United States. We arrived in this awesomely Dreaming of Sunny Islands And Dreamy Dames? Dream ahead, chum and when you dream come sit by our big assortment of back-number National Ge ographies. Wonderful magazine, the Geographic, full of pic tures a man can dream ing of writing by chaps who over, and a nice smatter ing of writing by chaps who really know.

THE OLD BOOK CORNER in the INTIMATE BOOKSHOP 119 East Franklin St. Open Evenings r:::::: i::''::::;:"::::::::t:zi spread out metropolis around 6:30 p.m. The sun had set, but the city was brilliantly lighted from the green glow of Gothic Parliament buildings to the bright spotlights on Toronto's new city hall. Later we were to ride beneath Toronto's streets on incredibly clean and quiet subways. Later we viewed the neatly laid out city streets from the top floor of a 54 story skyscraper. Our first glance, however, impressed us with the freshness of this urban By Bonnie Schultz center. We, however, were not so fresh. But our lack of sleep and grubby appearance hardly interfered with the reunion in Toronto that night. We hugged and shouted, ate roast beef sandwiches and apples, and we sang "The Song." "The Song" was written by Steve Barefoot and Stan Davis of the exchange after the Canadians left Chapel Hill last November. ". . .1 don't know where we were, but I know we're going back again." We were back again with the greatest conglomeration of kids you'd ever hope to meet. The second half of the '68-69 Toronto Exchange was in full swing. From that moment on we were lucky to get 3 hours sleep a night. But who cared? We ate well. We had French onion soup at Le Provencal, salmon steak at Sutton Place, four legged chicken at Bienvenuto THE ORDER of the GRAIL Will Sponsor YOUR 0 GLASS R Monday, Feb. 17 thru Friday, Feb. 21 Time: 9:00-4:00 Where: Jew Student Union For Whom: Seniors and 2nd Semester Juniors and a buffet at the Mississippi Belle. The Mississippi Belle? We had lunch with the mayor of Toronto, sherry with President Bissell from the University, and cokes with Ontario's governor, Ross MacDonald. But we did more than eat. We played. Friday night was the U.T. Guelph hockey game with entertainment by the Lady Godiva Memorial Band. This haphazardly organized group of engineers played Dixie, Swanee River and at least one bar of the Star Spangled Banner. On the ice U.T. men outskated and out scored the boys from Guelph 11 to 5. Afterwards everyone split up to either pub hop, tour local hippie hangout Yorkville, or get frostbitten wandering around campus with their cos. Saturday night "was dress your wildest and fresk out" to the music of the Grub Street Banana Band. About 70 of us jammed into the candle lit basement of Canadian chairman Dave Adamson's home for a love-in that lasted till 4 a.m. Sunday night the exchange took the hills outside Toronto for ski-dooing, tobaggoning or just walking in the snow. A few brave souls hiked a mile to steam in a sauna bath, then roll in the snow afterwards for ultimate invigoration. By 5 a.m. we all settled down for a short winter's nap. Monday evening Dixiecups practised to challenge Toronto's Mapleleafs on ice. Later that night we warmed ourselves in the sing-along, dance-along, shout-along atmosphere of a local speakeasy. W7e ended the evening early. We needed strength for the next day's shopping expeditions to Hercules for military greatcoats, to the Colonnade for Eskimo prints and muktuk, IUGSALE Their point was driven home the next afternoon by Laurier La Pierre and Pierre Bourgault of Quebec. "Yankee, go home" rang in our ears after these two passionate Frenchmen enthralled an audience of over 300 students with their eloquent tirade. Though separatist Bourgault favored an independent Quebec and federalist LaPierre sought a stronger central government, both expressed in most colorful terms the need for a v f f, - -; V w ' - veLn Wood Reading Dynamics ...

We had seen an award winning Expo film about Ontario and a tongue-in-cheek filmed view from a helicopter of the whole nation. We saw a reflection of our own generation gap between young idealists and older established politicos in a film about Toronto's Yorkville, "Flowers on a One-Way Street." 5 illi Is svil You'll see a documentary film showing a Wilmington High School student reading 49 pages of a diffi cult book while Art Linkletter reads a 60 second commercial.

Then, we'll devote time to ques tions and answers. We can say with experience: the Mini-Lesson will be one hour of your time that will lead to saving you hours o day.

The different forms are combined in a varied and interesting program. The two festivals include the following films: "Riff '65," by N.Y.U. filmmaker Eric We met with four draft dodgers and vehemently debated the sincerity of their commitment to freedom, the validity of their reasons for leaving the States and the effectiveness of their activities in Canada. No consensus was reached. We were foreigners in Canada; most graciously welcome certainly, but also challenged.
