Staff Writer
In a production high-lighted by
good music and fine performance
by the principal players, the Kos-
met Klub presented, lasi mem ai
h Nphraska Theater, the Cole
Porter musical 'Anything Goes'. As
a whole, the musical was excel
lent, however, weak it may nave
hppn in one or two aspects. Good
work from the principals, how
ever, made the show one of the
best seen from the Kosmet Klub.
Easily the most outstanding
member of the cast was nann
Gibson, who, as Dr. moon,
mugged, slapsticked, and gener
ally took over tne snow wnen
ever he was on the scene. His
norfnrmnnre was Drofessional in
its polish and stage-sense, as iu
capable straight-man and com
panion, Nick Amos did some fine
singing, as wen as presenting
fine appearance as typical musical
comedy hero.
Among the ladies, jean urui
Delong,playing the romantic lead,
was appealing, with a fine voice
and good stage deportment. Un
like some ingenues in me pasi
few years, it was possible to hear
every word and every note she
sang. Marilyn Lehr, with Gibson,
was pasilv the center of every eye,
and sane with the same relish and
! spirit which distinguisned ner per
Iformance in last year's show.
Ellie Guilliat was excellent in
her portrayal of Mrs. Harcourt, as
was Dick Marrs as Sir Evelyn.
Marian McCulloch was also very
brassy in a very brassy role
Anything Goes is the third in
a series of musicals presented by
the Kosmet Klub. In general, the
shows have improved from year
to year, with more professional
polish, better performances, and
u oil Wtpr musicals. HOW-
pvpyv 'Anvthine Goes' exhibited
some of the errors oi pasi
tv,p hnw was. again, too long
and played too siowiy. be;
scenes with the chorus seemed,
timoi tn rirau and the stars
often looked too crowded. In the
"Blow Gabriel Blow" number,
llarlv. it was often difficult
to see Miss Lehr, who was singing I
and the choreograpny seemeu iw
me, at this point, particularly
labored and artificial hard y up
. i-. 4V, a "Anv.
to tneir line wuik m "
thing Goes" number, where a
narody of different eras of danc-
ing was reany uihubius.
rhpstra was barely adequate and
showed a lack of rehearsal as
well as of spirit. The scenery this
vear was an improvement in that
it was easily ana quickly v-'b
but this was its only real ad
vantage.
The Show is bright, full of good
music, and well worth seeing.

Car Taping
Campaign
A "life saving" station will bo
set up between Social Science
building and Burnett Hall just off
12th street Friday from 1-5 p.tn.
The station will supply motor
ists with "lite-a-bumper" tape.
The tape will be placed on the
rear bumpers ot cars for a fee or
$1 by Lincoln Junior Chamber
of Commerce memoers.
Applied in one-inch strips
across the bumper of the automo
bile, the tape will last for three
years. It is made of plastic with
tvinucanrie nf tinv class lenses im-
beded on the outside surface of
the strip. The reflective material
is visible for about one-nan mm
and can been seen by motorists
approaching the rear oi me
"taped" car about 70 per cent
quicker than ordinary tail lights.
The effectiveness of the tape
was tested by officials at Iowa
State College. ,
The campaign is co-sponsored
by the Lincoln Jaycees and the
Daily MeorasKa as pan oi maym
Victor Anderson's "Safety Day."
Roger Larson, assistant Union
director and Lincoln Jaycee, said
it would be an all-out campaign
to apply reflective tape to as many
student cars as possible. Sgt. John
Furrow, of the University police,
added his approval to me cam

tape) should De required ior n

According to Mrs. Thoreson's
Drize-winning letter, tne young

had taken. Mrs. Thoreson said she
believed this way would make him
happier, for he would be able to
share both the responsibilities and
the benefits of the business, and
he would also have time to devote
to his family and community.
An interesting sidelight to the
story, Mrs. Thoreson said, was a
r.rn taken bv a University instruc

their opinion about what course
the bov should take. The instruc
