Robins< recognize outstanding scholarsi foster a spirit of liberal culture WUSC Has New Idea For Radio WUSC, campus radio station, is invibing a'll students to participate in an innovation in radio drama, Russ Burns, station manager, has announced. There will be no scripts from which to work; those in the presen tation will become familiar with a story, high points of the action will be agreed on, sound effects planned, and then the show will be acted out with the characters using original dialogue as they feel it fits the part which they are portraying, Burns said. Burns points out that this idea is not new as it is the method used by the early actors, but .it is be lieved that it jis the first time that this idea has been applied to radio. All interested students are re quested to leave their names in the USC studios on the second floor of Russell House. Work on the drama will begin shortly and the time and title will be an nounced soon, he said. Four Degrees Continued From Page One (1956), Canberra (1957), and Manila (1958).

The set designed for the three et comedy, which ran for three erformances (April 21, 22, and 3), was an eye-catching one in eed.

The props rere lovely and varied, ranging rom a convincing mummy case to iodern-day radio equipment. Cynthia Gilliam and Olarence 'elder, neither newcomers to the ~arolina drama scene, were cast s the reluctant hosts, Mr. and irs. Stanley. Both did fine jobs rith their parts, with Miss Gil am doing quite a delightful bit f acting 'in Act I.

Also, Ann Logwood, Frances Mc resent Fii Warmly remembered as the sweet hearts of "Our Town," David and Julie were cast in much smaller parts in the current production, but handled them well. Bill Bates was convincing as the blustering, egocentric friend of the rich and the famous, Sherman Whiteside. Mr. Bates stormed through his lines like a March hurricane, and the audience loved every moment of it. Though at times he did not pause for the laughter, and again he often spoke his choice dialogue too hurriedly, Bill nevertheless did a commend able job with his long and some what-wordy role. Jo Allen Bradham, versatile veteran of numerous University roles, was seen as Maggie Cutler, Whiteside's secretary. Miss Brad ham's -acting was realistic and re vealed a talent that is consider ably above the usual amateur col legiate level. Her costumes were appealing, and she brought to the script a touch of pathos it needed at times. Joy Jennings continued a fine record for dramatic perform'ances with her role as Lorraine Sheldon, the man-loving movie actress; Janet Case was hilarious as Miss Preen, W.hiteside's nurse, whom he terrified with his shouting; and Anthony Brown completely dominated the closing part of Act III with his original interpreta ti'on of Banjo, the Hollywood IOSSWORD 1 2 3 4 5 6 9 10 ny 11 12 13 14 15 17 16 19 -y 25 4 27 - 26 29 30 31 32 33 37 36 40 41 43 44 lie SWrTC4 FR~OM KGIDL eath of fresh air. ld refreshing menthol . oroughly teoted. filter ! th feels clean, rt Auction rPaintings of fine arts will hold its an ussell House Assembly Room Wednesday, May 6.

Mr. Brown's role was one of the highlights of a thor oughly enjoyable comic offering. Bill McDonald was a delightful addition to the cast as Dr. Brad ley, and he stole many a scene from the 'principals. His wit was natural and he was well-received by the audience. Melvin Byars was very funny as Beverly Carl ton, another conceited movie cele brity. R. C. Wilkie, another fine talent from "Our Town," appeared as John, the butler; and Nancy Hayes did a lovely job as Sarah, the maid. Dan Stanland, whose role as Stanley in "Streetcar" will be re membered for some time, was seen as Bert Jefferson, editor of the local newspaper. While Dan's role was obviously no great challenge to his ability, he discharged his part in good .taste. Henrietta .x Gourdin was charming as Harriet Stanley, and it came as quite a surprise to learn that the demure old-lady was actually the murder er of 'her father and mother! Rounding out a very fine east were: Kay Adams, Louise Farris, Jerry Wilson, Bill Lumpk.in, Chris Brooks, Frank H-ighamith, Sally Davis, Jimmy Tood, and Timothy Mayo. Thus the curtain came down on the 'last play for the current sea son.
