That night they got ready for bed as usual, put their hair in the drawer, wound the clock, put Elmer out (don't be alarmed Elmer is the toy cat), looked un der their beds and locked the door. Their minds at ease they went to bed, but instead of dreaming peacefully of Tyrone Power tak ing them to the Cornhusker or Charles Boycr telling of his love or dancing to Harry James with their 'one and only (all six) at the Turnpike, they dreamt of Draculla'a black cape, Frankin stein's physique, Jerry Colona's mustache and the Wolfman's howl. ion onivm sEis:j eighteen-fifty now DAILY NEBRASKAN 5W UB5nQs Msffl'irMBe For the third time in as many years a marriage series is being sponsored by the YWCA as an all campus project open to both men and women.

Militzer's topic in the third Uni Theatre Leads Shift Walls, Nail Sets BY JIDGE MASON News of a coming University Theatre play brought me out of hibernation yesterday to satisfy my curiosity as to current activ ity in the theatre world. Making my way to the Temple, I found, much to my surprise, one of the leading characters, dressed in jeans and flannel shirt, reeling under a large stage window which she was trying to seat into the wall flat. The girl was Dorothy James, who plays the role of Olga, a 17 year old Russian girl. Watching her work industriously on the stage set started me wondering just what goes on behind the scenes to produce a play. wo sooner had the thought en tered my mind than the big oak door of the set opened and in came a smudgy, paint-bespattered per son whom I had difficulty recog nizing as Joan Bohrer, portrayer or Marion Curwood, an English girl, in the coming production. Behind the coating, I perceived a wide grin on Joan's face as she dragged a piece of wall, which she had been painting, on Btage. btandmg there watching the girls, I recalled the last time I had seen these two, smoothly dressed for ' an evening out, and wished their dates could be pres ent now to see them sitting on the floor, hammer in one hand and nails in the other, cheerily putting their "front hall together. Yes, I was to find out before the after noon was over that he really lets his hair down who gets in one of tterne HJishns productions. Act ing isn't the only job by far, for all of the characters become well acquainted with the work shop before opening night rolls around. Wandering up three flights of stairs to the work shop, I stopped with a jolt at the sight of Roberta Burgess, rip-saw in hand, en deavoring to part a board in the After this tranquil and serene night's rest they awakened on this cold bleak morning and found tHfclr door open. Super-sleuths of the Residence Hall have tried to find who unlocked the latch. Did It want their nylon hose? Was It looking for their No. 18 stamps? Did It long for their record of "You'll Never Know" by Frank Sinatra? Was It superman ? Did the Thin Man come under the door? Was it a gremlin? No, you don't have to tune in next week or send two box tops, merely notify residence hall or contact this office if you hear of a person who fits this descrip tion.

The idea for such a series came from marriage and family cour: hich is featured at Lin- for Play middle. Even more amazing was the realization that she was han dling the saw deftly, without bend ing the blade or amputating her fingers, as is usually expected of girl carpenter. With bated breath I glanced another direction to see Jean Recine, Betty Rhodes and Phyllis Overman on various levels of a rickety stepladder, painting a tall flat. Enshn Beats It Out. Boys were there, lowering the flats on stage and doing other heavy work. From Art Beindorff heard the interesting story of Friday night when Art, Don Keough, Victor Ferris and Bill Major stayed up with Mr. Enslin until the early hours of the morn ing, working on the stage. When they had finished, Director Enslin sat down at the piano and "beat out some solid boogie woogie" for a half hour. Janice Marx, June Heilman and Barbara Berggren were also seen doing odd jobs about the theatre, along with practicing their parts for the production which opens Wednesday. When I left the theatre, I de cided not to go back into hiberna tion until after seeing "Letters to Lucerne. Judging by the ambi tion and former experience of the actors and the fun and good will which has prevailed during prepa ration, I'd say that Wednesdays opening should be very interesting indeed, Cornhusker Lists Week's Bottlenecks Culprits again are being singled out by the Cornhusker and their names entered on the roll of dis honor.
