PAGE 4 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Thursday, December 4, 1 947i Flick Drama Resolves Age Old Conflict When a man discovers that "love in Philadelphia is not the same as it is in Surigao" and must choose between the two, his decision may be accompanied by a great deal or mental and emo tional confict. Thus was the case of Mark Hanlin in "Return to Surigao," three act drama writ ten and directed by Clarence Flick which played to an invita tional audience last night in the Temple's Experimental theater. Hanlin returns with his bride to the Philippines, where he be came a hero during the secoond World War, to discover that Marcia, a Spanish Mestizo with whom he spent three years while engaged in the fight against the Japanese, has born him a son and has remained faithful, awaiting his return to Surigao. Opposing a local political boss who resents Hanhns return be cause Hanlin, a hero to the peo ple, has refused to back Cozan, the politician, in an election for the Province governor, Mark is faced with Cozan's attempts to thwart his island-development plans as well as deciding whether it is his wife he really loves or Marcia, the devoted and attrac-, tive mother of his child. The decision is made in a dra matic moment which resolves the battle against Cozan and reveals which woman is to stay at Han lin's side. Author Flick has achieved a short three-act play which ably presents this age old problem and its inevitable solution, and he has created an authentic setting from accurate details of Filipfno life. David Innis in the role of Mark Hanlin was at his best as he Ag Union lo Present New 'Symphony, Song' Feature The Ag Union will present a new feature today for music lov ers, according to Stan Lambert, chairman of the music activities' committee. "Noontime Symphony and Song" will be a weekly Wednesday noon presentation in the Ag Union lounge beginning this week. contemplated the wide bridge be tween the war hero lauded at home and the undecisive ordinary human who could not decide which women was the true love of his life. Hanlin's two disillusioned island assistants were effectively por trayed by Rex Coslor and Ave Katz. D. Ann Richardson as the beautiful Spanish girl and Betty Laird as the understanding wife both revealed a sincerity and sympathy in their love for the same man. Russ Kruuger convincingly played Cozan, the politician. Pianist Novacs Gives Classical Concert Tonite A varied program of piano music, which when performed at Town Hall in New York City two weeks ago drew seven en cores, will be performed by Guiomar Novaes, Brazilian-born pianist, tonight at 8:30 in the auditorium of Lincoln high school as the third attraction of the Lincoln Fine Arts series. " Of particular interest is the third portion of Madame Novaes' (pronounced Nov-eyes) program devoted to an entire perform ance of Schumann's' 23-section "Carnaval." Composed in 1834 when Schumann allowed his whimsical ideas fullest sway, the work centers around one theme presented in various ways, among which are ones descrip tive of Schumann's wife, of Chopin and Papanini, and of the composer's imaginary projec tions of his own dual person ality. Other sections are labeled " V a 1 s e Noble," "Butterfly," "Dancing Letters," and "March of David against the Philistines." Taking four notes whose sym bols in German are the same as four letters of his surname, Schuman formed themes that are implicit throughout the whole composition. Clues to the whole intent of the work are not available. "If we knew them all," the noted pianist, Harold Bauer has said "some of the magic might disappear, dulling ....our appreciation of an im mortal masterpiece, colored with a fantastic and exquisite im agery which has never been sur passed."
