ITY [[I Entertainmen Critic D( Only the most tanoramic pro fusion of adjectives can express my supreme delight last week in the University Theatre's first really significant contribution to the Carolina Community in its splendid production of William Shakespeare's "Troilus and Cres sida." Far be it from me to ex pound on Shakespeare's peren nially popular theme of the love between Troilus and Cressida as unrequited lechery and the Greek and Trojan war as vain brutality. His genius is understood. How ever, the originality and percep tion of Director Russell Green was clearly defined throughout the production by allowing very minor changes in the masterscript which strengthened the play in contin uity and in definition of charac ters. EXCEPTIONAL ACTING Don McMahon as Troilus, the youthful and passionate prince of Troy, electrified the stage with an almost breathtaking awareness of his depths of emotion. t Aside from the magnificent per formance of McMahon, several o t h e r exceptional characteriza tions were exhibited. Genesius - Jones as Ulysses, the magnetiz - ing Greek commander, displayed the forceful and pronounced speech that epitomizes the layman conception of Elizabethean thea tre. On a lighter note, Thersites, a base philosopher of the Grecian camp, was played to the hilt by - the delightful and cunning wit of .John Carpenter. ROLES PLAYED WELL Adrian Kennedy's portrayal of , Cressida was compelling and over all, quite good. She tended, how i ever, to lean more to overplay than the other major performers, i but this was not carried out to the extent that it scratched the effect i of the production.. Burrell Sanders had a field day as the aging and effeminate uncle I of Cressida. Like Carpenter, he supplied a ribald balance to much of the heavy dialogue. In minor roles, Carol Treacy as the sister of Troilus, Terry Lamb as the Greek warrior Achilles, 0 ng less than you >ut 5% is a real 2side, but make where it will y, yet remain ivings and loan :urity Federal is a to save with ety. stay away from 1ents until you r'e equal to six ig about finan ce action. Open ant at Security ERAL lighted H Robert Treacy as Agamemnon the Greek general, and Frank Dur ham, a Trojan priest, were out standing. POTENT ACHIEVEMENT Sets and music were kept to a tasteful minimum and costumes designed in part by Judy Morgan were adequate though perhaps a little too colorful at times. For the most part the technical aspects of the play were far above par Top Medica Relates Spa By TINA DERRICK Staff Writer Medical experiments for manned space flight was the topic for discussion when one of America's most widely recognized medical specialists, Dr. Lawrence F. Diet lin, visited the University. Dr. Dietlin, who is presently the livision chief of the Biomedical Research Center in Houston, Tex., told listeners at a recent seminar that "the aim of biomedical ex periments at that manned space :enter was to investigate man's response to the environment he might meet in space." Through a movie describing the medical experiments for the Gemini and Apollo flights, it was learned that effects of weightlessness and stress are two medical difficulties to be overcome. "Weightlessness is still the one thing that little is known about," Dr. Dietlin said. "But it is known that weightlessness can produce bad physical reactions such as muscle or bone aphrophy (loss of muscle mass)." A startling fact brought out was that an astronaut's pulse rate on splash-down was 134, -7 lower than a racing car driver's pulse rate at Daytona Speedway, which was over 200. Another serious condition that Dr. Dietlin discussed is a failure in the blood pressure when the istronaut resumes an upright position after space flight. Rus ;ian scientists have reported this is a problem also. REWARD For a gold charm bracelet lost between USC and Five Points. Jill Abrams, South Tower, 765-3626.
