Photo by Charlie Blumenthal Students At Theatres Pass Out Pledge Cards Distribution of pledge cards asking for equal service at the v"rslt' amI Carolina theatres got underway yesterday under the sanction of 10 student religious groups. Students worked in pairs for three shifts beginning when the 4 theatres opened and continuing until around 9 p.m. The stubs were being accepted at the box office of the Varsity, and the cashier was counting them hourly. The cashier at the Carolina was not accepting the cards. The manager at the . Carolina refused to comment on the action being taken by the religious groups. When asked if his cashier vvas accepting the cards, he said "I don't know anything about it. I see some boys out there, but that's all." The manager ot the Varsity was not available for comment. Yesterday, one - hundred and sixty-one people signed the cards at both theatres. Deene Clark, one of those handing the cards out, said that Harris as the old manservant in the "The Misunderstanding," practice a photo by Cunningham many of the people who came into the theatr seemd to b unaware of the group's plan. Much of our time is being consumed explaining about the cards." Clark said, "and we're missing a lot of people." Clark said he feels that it is "important, that we arc here, and calling to the attention of the peo ple of the community that the theatres aren't giving equal serv ice. Our witness by just being here may be more important than the count of the people who sign the cards," he said. Clark asserted that "the ma jority of the people we've talk ed to have signed," though this was not necessarily a majority of the people who patronized the theatres yesterday. "We welcome any others who feel inclined to help," Clark said, "if they check with someone at the Presbyterian Student Center." Clark said the group needs more students to hand the cards out. "We're pretty much set up through Thursday, but we need some stu- dents for other days," he said. By BLAKE GREEN A spring afternoon brought much distraction clicking type writers, bemuddled laughter, scuffing footsteps and the constant rise and fall of passing voices. And yet it vvas necessary to talk of death and despair and to rehearse the distorted facial expressions and practice the neces sary malice needed to give" the actors the right interpretation of Albert Camus's tragic characters in "The Misunderstanding." Under "not the most ideal conditions," the current Petite Dramatique cast spends its afternoons in Roland Parker Lounge 1 with a few chairs for scenery, and the front of the room for a stage. Director Tony Wolfe calls for an occasional break, but the bulk of time is spent in a constant rehearsal of lines, with the actors memorizing their lines in corners of the room when they're not appearing on the "stage." At night the scene shifts to 113 Murpny where, amid a mass of crushed cigarette butts and desks for scenery this time, the rehearsals continue. Problems arise constantly while the play is taking shape. "Where should I stand?" "Am I blocking her?" "Do I kneel be fore he says the line or after?" And all of them must be worked out by the director and cast before the play opens in late April. In Camus's tragedy the necessity of portraying th dismal images of fate brings a variety of interpretations from the actors. There is the mother, played by Marion Fitz-simons, who shows an attempt to repent, and even beg forgiveness for her former deeds, but is driven on by her daughter, Martha, played by Betty Green, and by the greater desire to escape from her present at mosphere. The tragic outcome of his refusal, and the uncanny plans for his death bring a climax to the play with the realization of the deed and its outcome woven into the insistent idea that no one can do anything for anyone, and that the pain of life must be endured in solitude.

J., charmed the crowd at Chap el Hill High School with her silent skit of an eight-year okhat a movie. The skit counted heavily in the judging, as modified contest rules made the talent portion of the page ant worth 50 per cent. The- remain der was based on poise, personality and beauty. In addition to the tal ent portion, the seven contestants competed in evening gowns and bathing suits. The rules were the same as those ued in the Miss America pageant. Miss Brew, sponsored by Town and Country Studios, played the flute and sang "It Might As Well Be Spring." Miss Finley played a selection from Songs Without Words by Men delssohn on the piano. She was sponsored by Town & Campus. Other contestants were Martha Hodson ot Coral Gables. Fla.; Jaskie Wompie of Durham; . De-bf-rah Ives of Warwick, N. Y.; and and Marilyn Zschau of Raleigh. The program was punctuated by trouble with the sound system, as it wavered from loud to soft throughout the two-hour show. Miss Womble showed color movies of rhythmic swimming, but pro jector trouble delayed the film for several minutes. The master of ceremonies came to Her rescue and kept the audience laughing with his J ad-libs. Miss Womble's films were final ly shown, after the other girls had completed their acts. After the swim suit competition, which was third on the program, the three finalists were announced. Each of the girls was asked two questions. The first question ask ed was, "Express what you feci are the most important qualities of good parenthood." "Who would you choose as the most important person in the world picture to day?" was the second question. In addition to winning a $200 scholarship, a wardrobe and a tro phy, Miss Wills won an expense paid trip to the State Pageant, to be held at Charlotte in July. J. Norman Crutchfield, a Phi Kappa Sigma, won the door prize of a free trip to Miami for two. The pageant was sponsored by the Chapel Hill Jaycees, and was a part of Jaycee week here.

World News In Brief Crucial Wisconsin Primary AA K I x n In II iviay iNei decora oa noting MILWAUKEE (AP) A massive outpouring of voters in a cru cial election yesterday shot the balloting toward a record in Wis consin's presidential primary. Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, shoved all his chips into the center of the table. "If I am beaten, I'm out," he said. Riding on the outcome of the primary, too, was a significant share of the hopes of Kennedy's never give up rival. Sen. Hubert II. Humphrey of Minnesota. Humphrey was hoping for an upset. Certainly some of the ingredients for one were present if they could be mixed together in the right proportions. Ben Hur Sweeps Oscar Field , HOLLYWOOD (AP) The costliest movie ever made "Ben Hur" today holds the greatest number of Oscars in the history of the Academy Awards. The 15-million-dollar spectacle, a Biblical tale climaxed by a chariot race, took 11 awards Mon.-'ay night at the 32nd annual. Academy Awards show.

Charlton Heston won the Best Actor award for his pertrayal of the title role of Ben Hur. Welshman Hugh Griffith was named Best Supporting Actor for his role as the Arab sheik in "Ben Hur."

Wallace near the turn of the century, also reaoed awards for: Best Costume Design in Color: Best Sound: Best Film Editing; Best Art Direction, which included Best Set Direction by Hush -Hunt, who did the same job on the original -ibnt "P.on Hur" in 1024; Best Color Cinematography and Best Musical Scoring.
