'Boheme'
Gives Idea
for Thesis
Jerry Carlson, graduate student,
is gathering plenty of ideas and
materials for his master's thesis.
Carlson is designing the scenery,
costumes, make-up, lighting and
is staging the opera "la Boheme."
Carlson's thesis will be on the
settings used in staging an opera.
"I chose 'La Boheme' because it
has always been one of my favor
ite operas," Carlson said.
Carlson has always liked music,
but he has never seen "La Bo
heme" staged. This was an excel
lent opportunity to use his own
interpretation of how the opera
should be staged.
In November, Carlson began
his research. After he had the
music and the play well in mind,
he started to create scenery ap
propriate to the composer's in
tent. Unlike a play, most of the in
spiration for designing the settings
of a opera stems from the mood
of the music, he said.
The function of the scenery is
to create the mood and atmos
phere of the show. The opera
takes place in the left bank sec
tion of Paris during the 19th cen
tury. "La Boheme" has two settings,
street scene and the garret
home of the Bohemians. Carlson
began the actual construction of
the settings in January.
Carlson will begin the final writ
tig of his thesis after the presenta
tion of "La Boheme." Judges will
appraise lightings arid staging of
the opera.
The final thesis will include the
opinions of the judges and also
the reactions of the crowd.

Law Violations
Said Excessive
The University has received an
excessive number of traffic viola
tion reports from law enforcement
agencies around the state, accord
ing to University officials.
Most of these reports involved
speeding, running stopsigns and
careless driving.
They also reported that there
were 12 serious accidents during
1955. In five of these accidents the
cars were demolished and sold for
junk and in the other seven exten
sive and costly repairs were neces
sary. The University car pool owns
66 cars, 29 of which are 1954 mo
dels and 37 are 1955 models.
These cars may be used by any

Jet Engines Tested 1
in World's Most Complete
Privately Owned Turbine Laboratory
Located on the bank of the Connecticut. River
at East Hartford is a singular development facil
itythe Andrew Willgoos Turbine Laboratory.
Here, behind windowless, thick concrete walls,
many types of engineers find a never-ending
challenge in the development and testing 'of
advanced aircraft engines.
Test methods used by Pratt & Whitney Air
craft in their unique laboratory are highly com
plex. Tests are conducted on full-scale experi-;."
mental engines at simulated altitudes up to
76,000 feet. Extremely high speed airflow, with
pressure and temperature accurately controlled,
duplicates speeds as high as Mach 2.75. To re
produce such prodigious flight conditions, ex
traordinary equipment had to be devised. For
example, a 21,500-hp driving dynamometer sup
plies the enormous power needed to test jet
engine compressors over a range of speeds from
800 rpm to 16,000 rpm.
The time lapse between development and
production of new engines is reduced consider
ably by the advanced facilities of the Willgoos
Laboratory. An outstanding example of results
achieved through concentrated engineering ef
fort and complete research support is the Pratt
& Whitney Aircraft J-57 turbojet. Today the
iinrhaUenged leader in its field, the J-57 is
merely the forerunner of greater aircraft engines
that will power the preeminent military and
commercial aircraft of the future.

piped to test cells are located in the large central sec
lion of Willgoos Laboratory.
