troubled man. Peyroux waits
for his laughs and pulls the
tears and in all ways fills the
bill. The Dauphin, who deserts
Joan, is no hero in the play,
but Peyroux has planted the
seed of might in his charac
ter which will grow, so history
tells us out of the weeds of
confusion to reconquer his lost
France.
As the true comic element
in the play, James Copp, por
traying LaHire, Joan's cap
tain, is tough, bawdy, delight
ful. Deserving special mention,
though, is Bill Gnuse, who
portrays Robert, the lord of
the manor. This part is diffi
cult for it combines the rug
ged, the simple, the wisened,
the regal characteristics in
one man and demands that it
he played to the hilt. Gnuse
does it.
- Split Scenes
The play is divided into two
acts, or more accurately, two
parts. Lown uses a series of
flashbacks and split scenes to
differentiate between the
times and locales significant
in Joan's life. And despite the
lack of scenery, the viewer

is not disturbed when, for ex
ample, Joan and La Hire ride
off merely standing on
benches.
The lighting was the first
time I can recall when the
Century electronic board has
been used to its capacity. But
the impressions the light crew
creates are perfect, they are
not distracting, they are rep
resenting scenery.
The Lark is filled with
many minor characters who
are none the less important
as you might imagine, for
with all on stage throughout
much of the play, the per
formers must remain in per
fect repose.
The Lark is a play of ideas.
Anouilh represents on the
stage the eternal struggle of
rieht aeainst power, of the
simple, humble person against
the world. Anouiln tnen con
trasts the depth of Joan
against the shallowness of her
mother, played by Beverly
Giltner, or the queen, por
trayed by Eleanor Kessler or
The Promoter, done by Roy
Willey or the Mistress of
Charles played by Diana
Peters. These characters all
pose a sharp contrast to the
light and the premature wis
dom of Joan with their thin,
sharp characters.
Against Joan
Every character in the play
with the exception of Cauchon,
stands opposite Joan looking
up, confounded, frightened by
her truth, her ' courage. If
Miss Miller lets down or be
comes too intense, these char
acters, bv their contrast don t
let it show ostensibly.
The Dlav. finally, is uplitt-
ing. It is a sparkling, comic,
pathetic story yes, ail tnese
things. But The Lark is a
moving story of a Young Girl
willing to face the world, to
fight for what she belives in.
And leaving the audience with
that message, the drama suc
ceeds. The University Theatre
should be Droud to take tnis
play on the road to show
Nebraska what heights its
University Theatre can reach.

condense parking in the cen
ter of the ca.npus.
"The best we can hope to do
is provide parking on the peri
phery of the campus and that
we are doing."
Pittenger explained that the
block located north of V i n e
St. between 16th and 17th,
might be purchased by Uni
versity and adapted for park
ing and storage until the land
is needed for expansion.
Gold Plated Lots
Fowler said his department
is limited by cost of building.
"We could make gold-plated
parking lots," he commented,
if the Board of Regents would
authorize such a venture.
"We would encourage per
manent surfaces," he said "in
cluding lighting and landscap
ing of the lots."
Other suggestions by stu
dents include:
multi-level parking lots
which could not fourish as a
self-paying proposition.
utilization of the area
around Love Library and the
strip running north from the
temporaries to the Carillon
tower as permanent parking.
restriction of parking of
a single class, such as not al
lowing the freshmen to park
on campus or else compelling
them to use special lots on the
edge.
