Actors to Play Oboe d Amour In SC Comedy
Using rare 17th-century instru-I ments, a Trojan team of actor-I musicians will piay and sing the overture and incidental music for I Moliere's “School for Wives” opening Dec. 2 in Bovard.
Originating in Italy as the j j “Comedia del Artes,’’ or wandering j j troubadors. the musical supplement j | idea was incorporated into many | of Moliere’s plays after the cele-j Lrated cynic once visited that country.
France also produced a version of the traveling tunesters. Primarily j cohrt musicians and jesters, they i became predecessors of the famous French ballet.
Instruments to be used include the virginal, a forerunner of the I piano, in which the strings are ; plucked instead of being struck with ■ felt hammers, and the oboe d’-amour, lower in pitch and range.
{but. more lyrical than the modern j oboe.
Music major John Bradley has : composed the overture and has ar-l ranged eight selections of incident-| al music from French "berger-' ettes,” or shepherd’s melodies, for j the drama department production.
Singing and playing will be an I integral part of the play, taking place on the stage and the musicians will have speaking parts.
Members of the musical troupe are Nancy Goldberger, soprano; Robert Raines, tenor; Frank Desby | and Loyd Rathbun, oboe; Erilia Reid, flute; and William DeVeau,

Dismiss Witch Hunters/ Campus Petitions Demand
Petitions demanding “the immediate dismissal of the witch-hunt grand juries, dismissal of the frame-up charges against all persons for Uieir political beliefs, and dismissal of the ‘contempt’ charges against the Los Angeles 10,*’ were circulated on campus Friday afternoon.
Sponsored by the Civil Rights congress of Los Angeles, the petitions, titled “What Is Your Freedom Worth to You.” are addressed to President Harry S. Truman.
The petitions urge Truman to call a halt to “undemocratic and unconstitutional grand jury investigations” and see to it that Attorney General Tom Clark drops the charges against “all those being persecuted for their political beliefs.”
Contributions were sought from signers to assist the Civil Rights congress campaign.
Leonard Grassi and Zulfikar Bhutto were top point-getters for SC.

His findings reveal that the length of the engagement, the approval or disapproval of in-laws, and whether or not a justice of the peace performed the ceremony all have a direct bearing on marriage success. Dr. Locke will explain the correlation of these and other factors with marital adjustment. The considerations are significant only when examined in company with other pertinent factors.
