Choabez’s Monster Debuts’
Vandalism And Ringo Star
"Movies are movies but this
ne is something else'’ was the
tatement made by co-producer
nd director Jim O’Brion in des-
ribing the upcoming “Dr. Cho-
bez’s Monster^’ which will pre-
liere tomorrow at Mardi Gras.
The other mastermind of this
sampus first, Bobby Quantz, has
learned a lot about the production
films in this undertaking. “One
ay we didn’t know anything about
laking movies but the next day
was finished” was his gross
Inderstatement.
indE
I With “Glamour” award win-
llng Betty Tilley co-starring with
Ireck Chapman and Richard Van-
gerbloemen in the leading roles,
|)'Brion and Quantz expect stand-
ig-room-only crowds in the
‘Cially constructed “Lily Pad
•layhouse”.
►I Included in the cast are such
riotable campus figures as the
(iev. Davenport, tennis star Guy
Starling, and the “figures” of
l^any campus coeds.
The plot is based on the futile
efforts of humanitarian Dr. Cho-
^bez to rid the world of the scou-
ige known as ‘^pond slime”. Af
ter an initial failure to achieve
this goal, the doctor’s youthful
assistant, Lance Sterling, takes
on the task of eliminating a grea
ter menace, the horrible monster
portrayed accurately by Breck
“Ringo” Chapman.
Chapman, with makeup and hair
styles by Sue Hawkins and Gwyn
Coble, plagues the world of S. A.-
by-the-water with his attacks on
Shirley Pimple, the heroine, on
innocent women and children on
the causewalk, and on anyone who
stands for virtue and good.
Filmed in technicolor and with
a theme of brilliantly-conducted
music, the movie should keep the
audiences in the Lily Pad speech
less during the continuous show
ings on Saturday night.
Master of the language, Tom
Trow has completed a narrative
which will help spectators to grasp
the deep symbolism of the epic.
Working late every night to meet
the premiere date. Trow and film
editor Vann Taylor promise “no
dull moments throughout the 12
minute running time of our first
venture into the motion picture
industry.”
In addition to the highly talented
cast and the skilled technical crew,
the movie has been promoted by
the business brains of MAMA, Inc.,
which is a subsidiary of the Amer
ican Marketing Association chap
ter here at St. Andrews.
Senior Dick “Boner” Stone
has been the creative head of the
publicity department, which has
plastered the campus with signs
and posters. Frank “Knarf” Grier
is behind the construction of the
Lily Pad, the marquee, and the
ticket booth.
Other highlights of the pre
miere include guest appearances
by Breck Chapman and a chance
for movie-goers to get his auto
graph. Of course, Quantz and
O’Brion will be hand to welcome
the masses into their theatre.
Jim O’Brlonlon and L*il Bob Quantz discuss the world’s premiere
of “Dr. Choabez’s Monster” to appear tomorrow at Mardi Gras.

Learned Lecturer Boulding Quests Survival
Colorful Kenneth Boulding
amused and enlightened a packed
LAA with his lecture on “How
to Survive the Twentieth Century”,
in the last of the Concert-Lec-
ture Series Wednesday night.
With such picturesque analo
gies as “The DAR is the Shinto
religion of America” and “. . .
every airport In the world is the
same airport”, Boulding discuss
ed what he considers to be a
vast problem, that of the conflict
of the “superculture” and the
folk culture.
Classifying such things as high
ways, airports, universities, and
television as elements of the su-
perculture, the noted author la-
Enellsh born economist and author, Kenneth Boulding ^ks to
ConSrt-Lecture Series gathering on surviving in the 20th Century.
mented the way the folk culture
was dying out. Although he ad
mitted the im practicality of
“hiring grandmothers to sing
songs and recite nursery rhymes,”
he did wish there was some way
to preserve the uniqueness of the
world’s many vanishing subcul
tures while keeping a compa
tibility between them and the ever
growing superculture which is a
product of scientific advancement.
Now economic theorist for the
University of Michigan, Boulding
has taught in many universities and
colleges. He was visiting profes
sor to University College of the
West Indies, Kingston, Jamaica;-
and Danforth visiting professor to
International Christian University
in Tokyo.
In 1962 the American Council of
Learned Societies recognized him
as one of Ten Outstanding Scho
lars. Former vice-president of
the American Economic Associa
tion, he was awarded the John
Bates Clark Medal of the asso
ciation.
You Name It!
The Handbook Committee is on
the “look-out” for a name for the
St. Andrews handbook. Suggestions
should be given to suite leaders or
dormitory presidents BEFORE
April 18.
Madrigals: Evening Of
Musical Sociability’’
id
A “pleasant evening of musi
cal sociability” recapturing the
spirit of the 16th century will be
staged by the Madrigal Singers
tonight.
This is the aim of Director
Thomas Sommerville, who will
give spoken “program notes”
during the public concert begin
ning at 8 pm in the LAA.
“These comments will be infor
mal and should help people enjoy
the performance more,” says
Somerville.
The young music professor will
accompany his Madrigal Singers
on the string bass for a swing
ing setting of “Der Freuhling”
by W. F. Bach In an arrange
ment by the Swingle Singers. This
is a humorous piece from the 18th
century, as in “Eloquence” by F.
J. Hadyn.
The Singers will open their con
cert with four early madrigals,
demonstrating the differences and
similarities of the styles. They
will also do three songs by Paul
Hindemith, showing the continu
ation of the madrigal concept into
our own century.
After Intermission the group
will present three songs from the
Choral cycle, “The Winds of May”
with music by Kirk Mechem and
poems by Sarah Teasdale.
