The average time for Home thirty Indents, amounted to little more than ten minutes, with less than twenty min utes spent in reading the entire paper. H'n king it for granted that these students are, typical, and that they represent a portion of the class of individuals who will help write the peace following the present war, it mihl t well to ask this iiestinn: Where docs peace come from T Not only in the I'niled States, hut in the rest of tin world, the problems of post-war reorganization facing students, scholars, and jrovcriiiiicnl officials will be multitudinous and far reaching. Where duex peace come fromt Does it come from n cloistered room 7 Does it come from a wholly frivolous spirit, h wartime altitude of ignoring the war until forced to give Nome attention to it! iKies peace, a sound peace, grow out of a nation of people going about their daily work with an attitude that White Space Vtatfrrday wt were about to finish our N-riew of J'rofewsor .

We think not. We think I hat to write a peace, you have to read the war. We think that everyone should read, should search, should try to dis coer day by day what has brought about present conditions. For bow can a peace be written, unless the writers, and the people who trust the judgment of the peace writers, under stand what the war is about, why it is being fought, where it is being fought, which daily eents are going to play an important part in shaping things to come? We read so that wc may learn to under stand many things, and we should do the same regarding this war. We read to understand that (I'ermany 's taking of Alsace and lorraine in the early mouths of this war followed scv end decades of squabbling between Krance and (icrmany, because the latter had long fell, the need of an inland empire, since World War I "treaties" had stripped her of her colonics, her trade, her wealth, and her "international brotherhood" spirit. To understand that the people of the third (ierman reich follow Hit ler - not because he is Hitler but becuuw lie was the first man who presented a plan to help lighten the burden placed on (Jermnny by ihc "peace" written after World War I. To writ this peace, Americans must read this war; For only through understanding of the factors bringing about war can a peace be w i itlcn to end wars.

The audience was afraid to breathe during many of the min ute of the atcond act Never be fore had I witnessed a perform ance that could be compared in its intensity with that of Itomulo Soldcvilla in hi portrayal of Briggs, the little Cockney work irigman, whose face completely dominated the stage during his seems. His frantic criea of of "Dr. Kurtz, Dr. Kurtz, Dr. Kurtz" will re-echo in my mind for some time to come! Character Well Played. Bill Todd in the difficult char acter of Charleston, the cynical writer who aought to escape the present by recreating the past, acted with a naturalness that was convincing as well as Inspiring. Marjorie Christensen' interpreta tion of Mtlaine, the lovely daugh ter of Dr. Kurtz, was a high jot of the play, and was acting with charming simplicity. Larry Taylor, as an aviator who was willing to die for ideals, was played straightforwardly and made of Strceter the strong, quiet character that the role demanded. Henry Lee fitted the role of Dr. Stefan Kurtz, "the tragedy of greatness unachieved," by jilaying with ease and gentleness. Bob Black wa amusing aa the grumpt Inspector Planning who re sented the lighthouse keeper, Charleston, for being too good for his Job. Altho 1'ri.scilla Moseley'g role of Anne Mnrla, the doctor' wife, did not contribute materially to the play, she played unassum ingly and in character. It was not by accident that "Thunder Bock" was a magnifi cent production. It was the result of hour of hard work on the part of the cast and the director. Too much praise cannot be bestowed on Mr. Zimmerman, not only for his superb handling of the cast but also for the designing of the atage act which beside being ar tistic was solid enough not to quake and quiver with every move. If "Thunder Rock" is as well re ceived aa it should be, we may look forward to serious drama in the future on the University Theater stage. Bulletin Employment.
