All-State, an intensive three
weeks course no truer words
were ever SDoken. To show you
what we mean by intensive, here
is a resume of some of the things
we did.
Within a few days of arrival at
All-State we became accustomed
to our schedules whether in
SDeech. Art. or Music. On the
average day we were awaKenea
at 6:30. Some of us had classes
as early as 8 a.m. Following
classes music students were given
private lessons, two ' a week.
These lessons were given to us
bv instructors who are the best
in their Drofessions.
Our meals were planned by
University dietitians and were
served to us in the Union. Every
one soon got used to eating off
travs and found it made no dif
ference in how good the food
tasted.
Student recitals were given
about three times a week. We
also had two one-act play pro
crams and one debate. Follow
ing some of the programs we naa
dances. The counselors attempted
to teach us some new steps the
shag, bunnyhop, and tango.
The chorus, band, and orchestra
made some radio transcriptions
to be played on later dates. They
recorded for "Farm. Facts and
Fun", and for "Your University
Speaks."
On Saturday afternoons we
were specially entertained. The

first Saturday, we were taken to
Pioneers Park for a picnic. . The
next Saturday, the different
houses gave their skits and on the
last Saturday we spent the after
noon at, Capitol Beach.
On our last day we all realized
that a wonderful experience had
come to an end, an experience we
would remember for many years.
Besides learning much about our
art, we had gained something far
more important. We had gained
many new friends and much more
knowledge about our American
democratic way of life. -
Humor will be the accent of the
University Theater s summer pro
ductioiv of "Out of the Frying
Pan" by Francis Swann.
Tryouts for the play will begin
Thursday from 3 to 5 p.m. ana
7 to 9 p.m. and will be completed
Friday from 3 to 5 p.m. in room
201, Temple.
The cast includes speaking parts
for seven men and seven women,
John Tolch, director of the sum-
mer theater announced, xie
stressed that any University stu
dent may try out for the parts. "It
is not necessary to be a speech
student or have any previous
theater experience," he explained.
Everyone is given the t same
consideration when trying out
and in most University Theater
plays, the majority of actors have
not been speech majors. i
"Out of the Frying Pan" is the
story of three young men and
three young women who are
sharing an apartment. They have
been driven to this community
scheme by the lack of economic
security.
These would-be stage folk have
a wacky plan in mind, for the
apartment they rent is immedi
ately above that of a Broadway
producer who has quite a hit
running and is about to cast a
road company. -
The entire play revolves around
the six would-be actors' attempts
to act for and be hired by the
producer.
Among the characters is George
Bodell, a large, lazy, and com
pletely good-natured young man,
with a slow voice and a dry, flat
way of saying things.
Norman Reese is the capable
member of the group. He takes
care of things, sees that appoint
ments are kept, watches over the
others like a mother hen with her
chicks. i
The other four occupants 'of the
apartment are Tony Denisoii, the
handsomest of the three boys:
Kate Ault, the cynic or the
crowd; Marge Benson, a serious,
attractive girl, and Dottie Coburn,
the "Dumb Dora" type blond.
The remainder of the cast in-'
eludes Mrs. Garet, the landlady;
Muriel Foster, Dottie's friend from
Boston; Arthur Kenny, middle
aged, dignified, sphinx-like char
acter; Mr. Coburn, a politician;
and two policemen. . Mrs. Coburn
and a Lady are also included in
the cast.
"Out of the Frying Pan" will
be presented in the Union Ball
room, Monday, Tuesday and Wed
nesday, July 21, 22 and 23. The
play, which is in three acta, will
be presented in the-arena staging
style with the audience seated
around the stage.
