Group Brings 'Experimental Theatre5 Here Theater goers can see "ex perimental theater" in action Saturday night when the Oak Grove Players of Staunton, Va. bring a new play "The Positive j Hour" to the campus." The drama will be presented at 8 p.m. Saturday in the Gra ham Memorial Main Lounge Admission will be free. Sponsored by the GM Petite Dramatique, "The Positive Hour" is the winter "on-the-road" production of a summer theater in the Shenandoah Val ley of Virginia. Its group is an outstanding example of a the ater which produces the tried and true, the new, never-before produced play and the popular choice. "The Positive Hour" is their first production in North Caro lina. The story of the contrast of modern-man's obsession for fame and wealth in opposition to the simplier and finer things of life, this play, by award winning playwright Margaret Collins, combines an abstract setting, unusual characteriza tions and the atmosphere of op pression to give its audience in sight into the pathetic failures of man against the onslaught of life. Murals depicting the more than 300 years of North Caro lina history, from Queen Eliza beth's meeting with Walter Raleigh up to events of the space era were unveiled Mon day during dedication exercises at UNC's unique Institute of Government. The murals were painted by the outstanding New York artist, Francis Vandeveer Kughler. The 14 murals exhibited on the walls of the Joseph Palmer Knapp Building, being dedicat ed in ceremonies here lasting through Wednesday feature "turning points" in the history of North Carolina, one of the original thirteen colonies, and one of the colonies governed by the Lords Proprietors. The cost of the murals is $100,000. Artist Kughler spent six years on the large canvasses being shown here for the first time. Among Kughler's previous works are the memorial por traits of Associated Press for eign correspondents who have died in the nation's wars. The Kughler war correspondent paintings are at the AP head quarters in New York City. Some titles of the murals are: and Walter Ttaleieh"; "The 'First English. Colony"; "King Charles II and the Lords Proprietors"; "On the Kings Mountains" (battle scene of crucial turn of American Revolution); "Found ing of the University of North Carolina" (by . William Richard son Davie). --SiLi'i-- J 1 1 Hr mi ih si, Vn- --.-.-:- I; 1. i '''4 -- I I . I v - nss x!,)."-- Illnl1llmlmlw "' t ;, X. . ' .iii .i M mill I mwm inn ' ' """" " - .
