Last fall, when Darrell Dapper
came down to school from straw
berry Corners, he had his mind
made up that he was going to be
a self-made man.
In fact, all through his first
semester, he lived in the illusion
that he was very different from
everyone else. When it rained,
he was the only one who got his
feet wet or so he thought. Con
sequently, he was the only per
son who caught cold.
Darrell always had the feeling
that instructors picked pn him.
Nobody else seemed to get the
treatment We got, and he resented
it.
Then too, it seemed to Darrell
that he was the only person who
ever had troubles with his study
ing. 'Why Do I Get Picked On?'
"Why is it that I always have
to get picked on?" he sometimes
asked himself. "Why don't tne
instructors ask any of the other
students in my classes to answer
questions? They always have
their lessons. They iiever seem
to have troubles like I do."
And, so it went all through
the first semester of Darrell's
college life. He was living in the
sad illusion tnat everyone else
was getting along fine that no
body had any worries. They all
flocked upon him like flies.
Darrell continued to live in his
illusion, wade in his sorrow and
swat the flies. Before he knew it,
people were talking about final
exams and registering for the
next semester. Darrell didn't
know whether he wanted to go
on to school or not. At the same
time, he was so scared about his
finals that he didn't know which
way to turn.
Darrel Registers Anyway

University students will present
a second performance of an ex
erpt from T. S. Eliot's "The Cock
tail Party" Tuesday at 8 p.m. in
Room 205, Temple.
The first presentation of the
play was made Monday night.
Under the direction of Richard
Garretson, the play stars Marjorie
Miller, Wesley Jensby, Cyra Ren
wick and Dick Miller.
Eliot, a Nobel prize winning
poet, has written the drama about
a man's need for a goal toward
which he can travel.
The excerpt being presented is
concerned with the central scene
of the play, which illustrates
Eliot's thesis of salvation.
Celia, 'Sophisticated Woman'
The play is about Celia Copple
stone, a young and sophisticated
woman who suddenly finds that
the world has become a delusion
to her and she no longer believes
in her own reality.
With the guidance of a psychia
trist, Celia brings her problem in
to the open. She admits having a
vision which she longs to follow.
The psychiatrist helps her to
choose the way of preparation for
her life, and she leaves to join a
religious order.
In explaining Celia's death
the result of this choice Eliot has
said, "Everyone makes a choice at
one tme or another and then must
take the consequences."
Lead Taken By Marjorie Miller
Marjorie Miller, who plays the
part of Celia. has appeared in
"Faust," "Glass .Menagerie,"
"School for Scandal," "Family Al
bum," "Antigone," and "Hay
Fever." She received the Techni
cal Theater Award of 1950.
The psychiatirst, Sir Henry
Harcourt-Reilly, is portrayed by
Wesley Jensby. He has acted in
"Ah Wilderness!," "Guest in the
House," "Once in a Lifetime,"
"Antigone," "Caesar and Cleo
patra." He received the Outstand
ing Freshman award last year.
Cyra Renwick, who plays the
part of Julia Shuttlethwaite in
the play, has appeared in two Cir
clet theater productions, "Life
With Father," and "The Night of
January 16th."
Dick Miller, portraying Alex
ander MacColgie Gibbs, has pre
viously starred in "Guest in the
House" and "Three Men On A
Horse."
tered for the following semester.
If he didn't come back, he
thought, he won't have lost any
thing by doing it. i
Finals arrived more quickly
than he had intended them to.
Nevertheless, he decided that,
despite his poor grades, he would
try to study hard and see if he
could raise them a little with his
final examinations.
"I'll really show those instruc
tors," he thought.
However, Darrell's sea of sor
row began to turn to quicksand
or so he thought after his first
final. As' the week progressed,
the more he studied, the faster
his hopes for coming out with a
fairly decent average slowly
ebbed away or so it seemed to
him.
By the end of exam week, Dar
rell had almost completely
drowned himself in the realiza
tion that he was only going to
have an 8.999 average. He had
been hoping all along for a 9.999.
'What Will I Tell Mother?'
"What, will I tell my mother?"
he thought desperately. "She will
be very disappointed in me."
Upon receiving notification of
the grade he had received in his.
last exam, Darrel walked slowly
out of the building. Sulkily, he
started for the bus stop.
However, as he did so, he
failed to notice a fairly intelli
gent looking fetllow who came
droopily up the walk from the
opposite direction. As a result
Darrell and he connected in a
surprise collision.
Books flew every which way.
Both of them very self-consciously
got to their feet, each
brushing himself off and looking
at the other suspiciously at the
same time.
After standing there staring at
each other for a moment, they
both broke out laughing, stifling
it as quickly as it had begun.
Expression Shows Same
Expression
Darrell looked at the expres
sion on his face, finding there
somewhat the same thing he had
felt inside of himself all week.
"What's the trouble?" he asked
h6pefully.
"Oh, nothing much," the
stranger replied; "Just a little
matter of some poor grades I'm
going to have to tell my folks
about."
"What's wrong with them?"
Darrell asked eagerly.
"Well," said the fellow rather
hesitatingly, "making a 1.2 aver
age is no funny matter. I don't
exactly know how I'm going to
break the news to the folks at
home."
Darrell was relieved. "And I
thought I had worries!" he mut
tered under his breath.
"What did you say?"
"Never mind," said Darrell,
tossing it off. "Come on. Let's go
someplace for a coke. Maybe we
can think up a good story to tell
your folks and mine."
The two boys turned in the di
rection of the drug store, blithly
conversing about what they were
going to take next semester and
their plans for the futture. . .
At last Darrell had found that
he wasn't the only one in th
world who had problems. . . .
