very compUcaed, but in New
York, 1 could look at a map of
the city and see where I was. In
Tokyo you can not do that."
In comparing education in
America with that In Japan, Miss
Seimiya says the opportunities
for a higher education are far
greater here. There are a number
of colleges in Japan, she says, but
the entrance examinations are
very complicated, and only a few
of the people who would like to go
to college really have the oppor
tunity. The American system of
education, she believes, is "more
practical," and the greater op
portunities for social contact are
an advantage.
There are a number of school
activities, such as publicity and
athletics, offered y in Japanese
colleges, she explains, but the'
social activities are not nearly
so numerous. In fact, she adds,
there were no coeducational
schools in Japan until since tne
war.
What ait-e her plans when she
completes her American schooling
at the end of the summer session?
"I plan to do some more travel
ins." she says. She is planning a
trip to Grand Canyon and a few
other scenic spots in the South
western United States, then to
San Francisco and back home.
And what are her plans when
she rets back to Japan?
Japanese women, she explains,
have only begun to work since
the end of the war. "I want to ao
something to enrich .the life of
working women," she smiles.
Naming
Cast
and Jim Riley as the Second Cop
complete the cast.
The resignation of one member
of the cast still leaves the part of
Arthur Kenny open. Tolch said
this part would be filled in the
near future.
Tolch was very enthusiastic
in describing the play. He said it
was the type of play that was full
of unusual antics and packed
with swift action and good humor.
The first week of rehearsals is
concerned with casting, gaining
familiarity with the individual
parts, and going through the ac
tion and movement of the play.
The play concerns three men
and three women who are aspir
ing actors and actresses and, be
cause of a lack of funds, share
one apartment. The apartment is
used as a rehearsal room for the
sextette as they strive to gain
parts in the road play of a Broad
way producer, who lives in the
apartment directly below them.
The entire play revolves around
the humorous manner in which
the young men and women at
tempt to act for and be hired by
this Broadway producer.
The play; in three acts, will be
presented m arena theater style
in which the stage is in the center
of the audience with inclined
seats built out from all four sides
of the stage.
This method of presentation is
fairly unique to University theater
patrons. It was originated, here,
in a coliseum production this
spring.
Sponsored by the Student Un
ion, the play will be presented
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
July 21, 22 and 23 in the Union
ballroom.
It will be free and open to the
public.
