Farce l480 And All That Opens To Capacity First-Night Crowd -N ' By W. R. Williams The students, faculty members, and friends of UCR, after having witnessed the opening performance of H1480 and all That Wednesday night in the auditorium, came away as pleased as kittens who had just finished lapping up bowls of warm milk-that is to say, they were ex- tremely gratified with the quality of the entertainment which had just been presented them. The performance, which never flaggedor became boresome, was 'of a.decidedly higher calibre than most of the first-nighters had an- ticipated. Every perfonner dished -out his or her role with an obvious relish which seemed to advertize that I, and I alone am the star of your show. Yet, no one managed or even tried to steal the limelight from his fellow thespians. The theme of this well-balanced bit of pot pouri pointed up the con- troversy during the 14th century as to whether art, music and architec- ture should be purely religious or purely secular. Dr. Jack Beatty set the stage for -the scholarly discussions of PARI- SIAN men of letters, Drs. Purpus, Ballots Show ASUCR Favors Delay On Mascot As a result ofthe ballots cast by the ASUCR in elections May 12 it was decided that no immediate choice should be made as regards to a mas- cot. The count was as follows: Arabs, 16, Bearcats, 75 Condors, 6, Corsairs, 2 votes, and Falcons, 8 votes. How- ever, a large majority, 561voters, cast their ballots in favor of delaying the choice of mascot. A mandatory student activities fee was also approved by the large mar- gin of ,80 in favor and 17 against. D owever, as regards the amount to be charged the balloting was much closer, 40 in favor of a 37.50 fee and 43 in favor of a 310.00 per semester fee. Martha Beckley was chosen by the Associated Women Students to be Head Sponsor for Sponsor Week. Almost 8071 of the student body cast votes in the election. 9 of Riverside M IEKSES' WOM EN'S Fashion Clothes 3855 MAIN William Sharp, Edwin Simon and Francis Camey. These gentlemen in turn, at the special behest of scho- lar Sharp, went on to introduce the farce Pierre Patelin, which saw Pamela Payton and Dave Miller las the lawyer Patelin and his wifel, Bill Nelson Kas Jacques, the Draperl, Frank Mason fas Thibault Lambkin, the sheepherderl, and Dr. Beatty Cas the ludxcrously solemn judgel, tum in performances which, either individually or collectively, would be difficult to top. Coran McNair, Dr. Jerome Roth- enberg and Martha Beckley did an admirable job as the singers. A spe- cial aside is due Miss Beckley, whose melodious sole work did much to enchance the entire bit. Drs. Adelaide Brokaw, George Knox and Andre Malccot provided the singer's background music. Gene of Claremont fmore com- monly known as Dr. Eugene Pur- pusl and director William Sharp are especially to be commended for their delightfully inspired costum- ing and staging, respectively. Dr. Jean Boggs, although not present on the stage, was represented for the entire performance by her well- executed mural which hung behind the players in a centrally positioned spot. Much of the wittiest dialogue was taken up with a discussion of this very mural. Critically speaking then, I have not a leg to criticize on, so to speak. The farce was definitely one of the finest pieces of theatre ever to have been staged in Riverside. And-it has to be seen to be appreciated. The annual staff would appre- ciate students loaning snapshots of UCR students in action, parties, etc., for the snapshot sec- tion of the yearbook. UCR Welcomes H. S., J. C.

ERS TO THE EDITORS THE EDITORS: -have observed a movement on campus to establish traditions, cots, and policies in the short od of this first term. I would like sk two questions and I would also 'to see the ASUCR give these tions some. serious thought: 1. at is the all-fired rush? 2. Why t traditions,-'mascots, and poli- ,- be established NOW?

Swimming, dance music, and en- tertainment were provided by the class. Entertainment included a div- ing exhibition by Bud Barton. Bud performed five basic dives including: a forward one-half somersault from a pike position, a backward somer- sault from a pike position, a gainer somersault from a tuck position. These dives were all from the high board. From the low board Bud performed a full twist somersault from a pike position and a cutaway somersault from a tuck position. Miss Joanne Royer gave a demon- stration of synchronized swimming consisting of her interpretation of Starlight. Vaughn Blankenship gave his in- terpretation of Grimmis Fairy Tales for Hep Kids. Patty and Linda Huber sang Red, Red Robin, Zing Went the Strings of My Heart. Al Bielskis, Frosh President, M.C.'d Educ. Program At UCR Clarified Answering numerous inquiries con- cerning UCR education courses, Dr. Arthur C. Turner, chainnan of the Division of Social Sciences of the new College of Letters and Science, Said yesterday the courses will cover basic subjects like child development and the history and philosophy of education. Emphasis will be placed on broad knowledge of fundamental subject matter rather than a superficial smat- tering of educational methods, he pointed out. Dr. Robert A. Nisbet, dean of the College, said although opportunities for practice teaching are not now available it is possible for any stu- dent looking forward to a career as a teacher to begin work at UCR. He said the student could meet the great majority of requirements leading to a elementary or secondary school credential and finish work by SMALL PIANOS Bought - Sold - Rented Steinway - Knabe - etc. 55 a mo. up GosseTt's - 4024 7th transfering to another campus, such as UCLA. It is very definitely the intention of the new college to explore at the earliest possible time arrangements for the granting of elementary and secondary school credentials, Dr. Nisbet added. The Dean pointed out that such arrangements necessarily can be Completed only by action of the uni- versity president and regents after due consultation with appropriate representatives of the public schools. The UCR program for training prospective teachers was explained by Provost Gordon S. Watkins in these words: ' We think it is important to know how to teach, but we are equally certain that it is important to know what to teach. Teachers impoverished in subject matter in the arts, letters, and sci- ences are likely to be mechanically- minded, uninteresting and uninspir.. ing teachers? ' We desire, first, to give prospec- tive teachers a sound, well-rounded cultural education, and, second, Within this framework of broad knowledge to teach them how to pre- sent their subject matter effectively. The Provost said prospective teach- ers will constitute only a small per. centage of the large numbers who eventually will enroll at UCR, but the faculty desires to tum out uni excelled elementary and secondary teachers, the kind we think can be produced only through a liberal arts program.

Broadbent has extended an invitation to UCLA members of the Cal Club to be his guests at UCR tomorrow, May 22, for a business and swimming meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the placing of a big Cn on the mountains behind the campus. As in the past, the Cal Club is anx- ious to sponsor and to participate in the construction of a traditional Big C the purpose of which is to foster a sense of pride in the University. It is hoped that during the meet- ing plans for the organization of a chapter of the Cal Club at UCR will be made. It is possible that such ar- rangements can be made so that a chapter will be chartered as part of dedication ceremonies this fall. The Cal Club was founded in 1934 CContinued on Page 4l Changed By Com. Unforeseen complications have necessitated a change in plans for UCR's first semi-formal Spring Dance. As a result of University regu- lations which require that all bands playing on the campus carry Work- men's Compensation Insurance, it has been necessary to cancel plans calling for Iohnny Allen's band to play for the dance. Substituting for Allen will be Johnny Guinn and his band. Because of the change in bands it has also been necessary to change the date of the dance from Saturday, May 22, to Friday, May 21, that is tonight. The dance will still be held in the Physical Education Building from 9 to 12. It will be semi-formal, dark suits for the men and dressy dresses for the women. The affair will still be dates only at 351.50 per couple. Ticket sales will close today, an- nounced Bill Kassel, ASUCR Vice- President, and chairman of the Social Affairs Committee. No tickets will be sold at the doors. Faculty and administrative person- nel have been invited to attend. Citizen's Univ. Comm. To Host UCR Students The Citizen's University Commit- tee has extended an invitation to all UCR students and their wives or husbands to attend a banquet in honor of the UCR student body. Plans have been made to invite stu- dents Thursday, May 27, to the main dining room of the Mission Inn. A 6:30 reception for all students will precede the scheduled 7 p.m. dinner. Dean Loda Mae Davis and stu- dents Martha Beckley and Jim St. Clair met with Mr. Phil Boyd, Mr. Howard Hays Ir., Miss Frances Frazer, Mr. W. A. Thompson, Mrs. Henry Keil, Mr. T. F. Gore, and Mr. Buchanan of the Committee last Tuesday, May 8, to discuss arrange- ments for the affair. Members of the Committee pro- posed that students should be en- couraged to dress informally, suits for the men and dressy dresses for the women. Name cards will identify both stu- dents and the members of the Com- mittee. This has been done since it is planned that each student, who will have a personal host for the evening, can identify and in turn be identified by his host. Arrangements have been made to provide entertainment for a part of the evening to include among other things a strolling accordianist. Mr. Phil Boyd will briefly address the group explaining the Citizen's Committee. During the course Mr. Boyd expressed purpose of the dinner to the effect that Riverside realized that it was now a college town and hoped to make students realize that the community is very happy to have them here. All UCR students are urged to at- tend this dinner with their husbands and wives. Because it is necessary that the Committee know approxi- mately how many guests to expect students should sign their names in the Dean of Students Office, if they are going, before 4:00 p.m. Tuesday, May 25. STUDENTS CURRENTLY registered who wish to continue in the fall semester 1954 may register and enroll in classes by mail during the summer months. In order to accomplish this, an appointment for advising must be made with the student's divi- sion between Monday, May 24 and Friday, May 28. At the time set by the division, the student will report to his faculty adviser and arrange his program for the fall semeste1'. On and after june 1, students may obtain from the Office of the Registrar the necessary materials for registra- tion by mail.
