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.

Miss Wills, a native of Stanhope,
N. 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.
