The University of Nebraska
(Lincoln) Summer Repertory
Company opened its season
last week with the musical
"Man of La Mancha."
The show, which ran over
1000 performances in New
York and received many
awards, including best musical
of the year in 196S, is a great
one. This work is a far cry
from the light-hearted
extravaganzas we associate
with the usual musical. It's a
rather touching, believable
drama that speaks of idealism
and morality, very timely
Festival To Feature
ftlefheds Presentation
A presentation by Arthur
M. Suchesk, the originator of

Suchesk will give a

future, according to James
Buterbaugh of the NU
Instructional Media Center.
"Suchesk will present an
jnentation to the history,
purpose, development,

Buterbaugh said. "He will also
define the roles of the

movement.
Suchesk will give his
presentation at 9:00 am.,

An idea being tossed about
lately is that since news
reporters cant write objective
newt stones they should write
them with declared bias, whkh
supposed !y it a more honest
approach.
The idea tut new. The
Daily Sludgepump in
Muckracber. Ohio, prints
nothing but editorialized news
stones. Its 15-nember staff
rewrites all news from wire
services according to personal
opinion. Each reporter bandies
one news department and
staffers rotate departments
weekly.
This gives readers a wide
variety of opinions to choose
from," said Al Puckttt,
Sludgepump reporter and
recent Harvard graduate.
Other reporters mdude:
Henry Stonebcflow, 72, who
said he is a former aid to
President WJ. Bryant; Sid
Ferry, an ex-model for

One basic, very effective set
worked for all the scenes. A
suspended stairway which
could be raised and lowered
was the only elaborate
machinery needed. This, with
the addition of a few boards
that served as stools, tables,
beds, hearth and what have
you, were all the props used.
The constant resetting of the
scenes was done - quickly,
efficiently and naturally.
Nothing got in the way of the
action, nothing seemed
out-of-place. The simplicity of
these sets contributed much to

"Some distributors," he
said, "m ill be exhibiting a total

"We're getting it alt

the success of the play.
Lighting was equally natural
and low keyed. Except for one
spotlighted duet and Padre's
solo "To each his Dulcinea,"
the lights never called attention
to themselves or seemed
excessively dramatic.
Mitch Leigh's musical score
doesn't boast a troupe of hit
songs, though "The Impossible
Dream" and "Dulcinea" are
certainly well known. It is the
way that the music is so
beautifully woven into the
story that makes this musical a
good one. With the possible
exception of the choral finale
that smacks of too much
theatricality, the songs flow
naturally out of the action.
Director Hal Floyd chose to
place the orchestra behind the
set and the result is excellent
balance - a rarity in the small
confines of Howell Theater.
The ensemble, directed by
Gary Lamb, is a first-class
group, though the overture was
a bit shakey at the pre-opening
performance.
The costumes designed by
Frank Vybiral are necessarily
on the drab side to suit the
setting in the dungeon and
tavern. They are also the
product of a lively imagination.
All costume changes were done
on stage for the play-wit hin-a-play.
With very few pieces of
material he accomplished fast
changes and changes that
achieved nice variety within a
narrow range of muted colors.
Dale McClellan in the dual
role of the poet, Cervantes, and
the knight Don Quixote was
excellent. If his body
movements are sometimes a bit
stiff, his facial movements and
over all characterizations are
not. His powerful voice was
used well. He projects well and
his diction was exemplary.
Margaret Hawthorne's role
as Aldonza was also well
handled. She looked and acted
like a rough and tough bar girl
and belted out some fine songs,
doing a nice job of singing
when she wanted and parlando
style when she didn't.
Frank Kopyc lent a pleasing
voice and good humor to the
role of Padre. Mitch Tebo as
the Duke, James Barty, the
barber and Royal Eckert as the
loveable Sancho Panza all
deserve mention for their
work.
Creates
according to Gritti. The rest of
the day is used to "create the
truth" for Sludgepump readers,
be said.
One subscriber, Harvey
Hick, 24 Muckracber Lane,
said he is "much better
informed" with the news
handled tlm way.
1 used to fry to think but I
don't have to now," Hick said,
adding, "The Vietnam war is
justified, unnecessary, a holy
war and a capitalist pig plot."
"It's easy to learn the true
facts," said Claude Upright. $0
Slate St. "If Stonebellow
doens't write the story I don't
bother to read it. He did a
dynamic write-up on God's
tone (as opposed to daylight
saving's time) last week,"
Upright said.
Sludgepump circulation has
doubled since Gritti joined the
staff. Only two Muckracber
citizens refuted to subscribe to
the paper. Both died in March
of "unknown causes,"
according to Gritti.

Integrated
As a whole the show is well
paced and beautifully
integrated. The coordination of
the sets, lights, acting and
music was the key to the
enjoyment this production
brought to the audience last
week.
My only objection involved
the more violent scenes in the
bar-room which seemed too
violently acted, too contrasting
to the rest of the play.
If this pre-opening is a
gauge, and I think it is, the
Theater Department has a hit
on its hands.

Dear Editor.
A recent article in the
Summer Nebraskan (June 7th)
on the plight of foreign
students on this campus irked
this writer for many reasons. A
follow-up search for the
reactions of foreign students to
the contents of the article
including sitting in on an
executive committee of some
students plus some foreign
"representatives" of the
administration only confirmed
t he miserable psychological
environment that exists on this
campus for foreign students.
This negative environment, it is
believed, is created in part by
the foreign student office and
its collaterals and in part by
the apathy of the foreign
students themselves.
This article is not meant to
be simply a criticism of the
above mentioned article, the
later being simply considered
testament to the circular
the Truth
policy," said Ferry.
Any newspaper
contemplating such a policy
should take a look at The Daily
Sludgepump.

indoctrination that prevails.
This is instead meant to remind
foreign students on this
campus, lest it be forgotten, of
the major role that they must
play on a global and not
merely on an American level.
The image of the foreign
student has been cited in
articles and even policized as
being "one not being able to
handle his own cash", not
digging the American slang
terms such as "up tight", "out
of sight", etc. Many other
cliches describing the image of
the foreign student are bandied
about. The unfortunate aspect
of this state of affairs is that
this image is deemed
acceptable even by foreigners
on the administration who
either determine policy or
counsel foreign student bodies
on policy determination. Does
this image of the foreign
student include the Canadian,
the English, the Australian
foreign students? Thus, a
general image loses worth when
analysed student by student.
This seems obvious but needs
to be put on record.
Must foreign students be
reminded that they have left
back home hundreds, even
thousands, of capable men and
women running their country,
their businesses, their banks.

In the United Nations, from
chief ambassador through
second and third secretaries of
a hundred or more developing
countries, are capable, brilliant
diplomats and scholars. This is
the "Third World."
Undoubtedly, compared with
America's technology and
gigantic gross national product,
most of these countries fall
short. Yet it does not take too
much imagination to witness
the equalizing force of the
Third World in foreign
currency exchange and even in
individual achievements.

country is this generation's

cream of the academic crop of
his homeland. Thus, in spite
of any image creating, whether
by tradition, by the media or
by insensitive policies, the logic
of the above negates any pet
criticism of foreign students.
It ill be a happy day for all
concerned when foreign

to the full actualizing of their
potential and not be bogged

the prevalent society.

there is the benefit of living in
a different culture, itself a
broadening experience. At the
expense of being presumptious
to fellow foreign students, this
benefit of living in a different
culture, beset with adjustment
problems, should be treasured
knowing full well that it could
only help, knowing full well
that satisfactory assimilation is
difficult to achieve, knowing
full well that the experience in
international living will add to
their presecribd role a role
deemed crucial owing to the
fast rising economic, political
and social "catch-up" being
evidenced by the Third World.
