THI FAR SIDE By GARY LARSON Firebugs Continued from Page 10 clue that anything else is going on. Yet, there is an underlying story in “The Firebugs.” If one knows a little bit about the original context of the play and its author, order begins to form out of chaos. Frisch was German. This play was written after World War II. In the German context, it becomes a more obvious statement about the Nazis and their seemingly impossible rise to power. Biederman represents the German people in the 1920s and 1930s. The “firebugs” or arsdnists are the Nazis whom he accommodates. Frisch is commenting on the in credible ease with which the Nazis rose to power, and the lack of resis tance offered by the common Ger man . From Frisch’s point of view, the Nazis must have been as blatant atx)ut the atrocities they wanted to commit as the arsonists of the play are. - ——— —■— 20 Vehicles For Sale '83 Mustang convertible, automatic, air, cassette, cruise, power locks. 93,000 miles, great shape. $4,250. 476 9667. 110 Announcements 3 tans-$6.

But believe me, Doris — once you get to know me, you’ll see I’m much, much more than that." ' >* Biederman comments at one point, “If I report them, I ’ 11 make enemies of them.” He desperately hopes he can avert disaster by making concession after concession, but in the end, they send his house up in flames. An interesting aspect of the play is the use of a Greek-style chorus of firefighters (Ann Niergarth and Dylan McCullough) to help tell the story. They serve different functions in the play. Most of the time they narrate and foreshadow, and occasionally they act as Biederman’s conscience. In the end, the chorus tells the audience, “The fire killed many, but changed nothing.” Though many people would ques tion the idea that World War II changed nothing, Frisch’s is an interesting point to consider. Many of these confusing moments could have been avoided if notes had been included in the program to clue people in. Understanding “The Fire bugs” without a little help is too much to expect of an audience, and that is the only real fault of the production.

Recital Continued from Page 9 the course to develop his musical skills. “I’ve always been interested in trying composition,” Miller said. “I’m a vocal performance major now, but I’m not sure what my minor will be in graduate school. I wanted to give everything a chance. I also study composition because it is a lot of fun.” Miller has written three pieces to accompany sonnets by William Shakespeare. The sonnets, which are about vanity and the aging process, were inspired by personal experiences, he said. “Like everyone else, I’m afraid of growing old,” he said. “So when I checked out a book of sonnets, the ones on aging were meaningful to „ _ »♦ me. Miller said Shakespeare’s verse also was an inspiration for his music. “Sonnets are a certain form with three quatrains and a couplet. Each quatrain has its own point its trying to get across, and I modeled the songs’ style after that.” The songs are piano and vocal compositions and include both tonal (which uses an eight-note scale) and atonal (12-note scale) sections. Miller gives Snyder credit for helping him write in an atonal piece. “This is my first piece, and I had a tendency to stick with tonal ideas and ribt venture into the atonal world,” Miller said. “I started writing every thing as tonic and dominant progres sions. Snyder steered me away from that.” The Student Composers Recital will be held Sunday at 3 p.m. in Westbrook Recital Hall, 10th and R , , streets. Admission is free.
