CHKa ' tO TON ' LOI AH6IU SAR FtAsKllCO Critic Finds Appreciative Audience at 'Studio' Plays Speech Classes Join In Practice Dramas The first in a series of plays sponsored by the Studio theater was presented Wednesday night to an appreciative audience in the Temple. Outstanding performances were given by Barbara Birk and Jack Bitner in a 1-act play center ing; around a "love-sick" couple who were confounded by a series of complications which proved to be a stumbling block in their matri monial plans. Dan Cupid in a minor role saved the day much to the mirth of the audience. Bitt ner recently stalled in "Judgment Day' presented by the University Players. Three one acts were presented by members of sophomore, junior, and senior dramatic classes. First of the plays was an interesting study of split personality. ' Real actors represented the sub-conscious self of the main characters. Rilla M:ie Kevin and Rowena Bea dle were cast in the "flesh and blood" roles. Their sub-conscious selves were played by Doris Mae Toolkit and Tex Rounds. Miss Foellot gave a good performance in spite of the fact that her mind was in Miss Kevin's role. Miss Rounds also seemed preoccupied in the affairs of Miss Beadle but managed to cut a few capers on her own. Purely Experimental. A comedy involving a doctor and a woman who delighted in consoling the sick and the bed-ridden concluded the program. Jean Moigan as the woman gave a good performance as did Bernard Me nke in the role of the doctor. The plays are presented to give potential members of the Univer sity players experience in dramat ics. All students outside of the speech department who have tried out for the plays will be cast in some play during- the season, ac cording to Mr. Rider. The theater is planning on presenting Shakes speare's "Macbeth" in the latter December. part of November or the first of Miss Howell, who gave a brief talk before the performance, em phasized the fact that the plays were purely experimental and were not to be regarded as "fin ished" plays. She al30 stated that the theater will' present several more one act plays and a few three act dramas. No admission will be charged for these performances. Dear Biff Jones: Well. Major. tomorrow's a red letter day tin the calendar of ccry Nolrakan. You semi tho Huskers out on the t'ieM for t ho fourth time this season. This week's foe is Otfaluuna. Hi i? Six threat to Nel-raska's contYrenee supremacy, and a team ranked anions the top Hotelier so far this season. Your CornluiskiTs performed smoothly enough last week against Indiana, hut lacked the seorhic punch four times to break the deadlock. Tress reports from Sooner territory assure t he Jones Hoys their assignment will he toucher tomorrow than it was a week ao acainst the sophoinoric lloosiers. You know that the Indiana tie was enouiih to bring the Huskers out of the doldrums of defeat. Oklahoma rates today as the Hiii six power-to-be. The Sooner have played and defeated only one conference team Kansas. But their non-eonfereiice victories must impress you. Major, and the Jones Boys as to the Sooner sirenizth. The game worTl be a battle of sophomores or a kicking duel. Oklahoma's pass attack is certainly an offensive to be feared, if the statistics of past games mean anything. Your Oklahoma successor. Tom Stidham. has built up a powerful line too. Major. We hope our sophomores can break thru it ami hold it. And the game is at Norman. Oklahoma's big worry is o erconfidence which has been sweep iigMhe Sooner campus. You'll excuse us. Major, if our enthusiasm isn't at a peak. You see, for the first time in years Nebraska is going down to Norman as the under dog. and such a situation curbs our pep but not our confidence in the Oornhuskers. We're still all for you one hundred percent, Major, and we wil continue to be Nebraska fans after tomorrow ' game w in. lose or draw . Like the rest of the loval lluskcr rooters. Major, we were a little burned up this week when a national sportswriter whom we can't remember being in Lincoln for the past two years tagged Nebraska among the "biggest disappointments of 1.'!S."' (Yesterday he turned cheek and predicted a Nebraska vic tory saying Oklahoma is plenty tough, but Ne braska is about due.)

Sanfor.i. jjCornhusker jj it r i j a Cavalcade Photography plans have been changed for this year's Corn husker. The staff had originally planned to make as many candid photos as possible and then select the best of the lot. These photon which are taken without any spe cial attention given to lighting ef fects or subject matter proved to be Inadequate. Most of them were Indistinct and not effective. After a consultation with the staff photographers, Pat Lahr editor, decided that photos which were planned out and then taken would be far more effective, and yet would still retain their can didness. Major Problem. One of the major problem which confronted the staff wa that of picturing the fraternity -.nu sorority houses. They couldn't de cide whether to use line drawings or photographs. At the suggestion of Bill Bu chanan, it was decided to photo graph them through Infra-red fil ters. This will not only make the picture much more clear but at the same time will make them flattering and unusual. Pictures on the division pages will be done in a green tone The photographers, who are selected on the basis of knowledge of the subject, have each bem assigned to a separate division. In order to keep in contact with up-to-date methods and techniques of photography, all photographers are taking a night class in photog raphy which is offered by the university. Pictures Themes. The main purpose behind all of this year's photography is a theme of some sort for every picture which is used. All of the pictures which are taken this fall will be filed so that they can be readllv found for use in the lay-outs this coming spring. Photography will be the biggest feature in the editing of the an nual. In recent years, photography has come to the front in a number of magazines such as "Life." "Look" and many others. This photo trend has been adopted by most of the college annuals in the country including Nebraska. sincerely n the hi think ads of the ihe Th foinii!is.kpi fViuntrvman . subscription campaign is still be-, pediatrician.
