Self-Realization
Action centers around Segis-mundo and his self-realization, which is achieved only after he has overcome his lustful appetites and has shown that he is capable of social integration
Dr. Hesse has taught at NYU nn.l the University of Wisconsin. In 1953, he was elected n iticnal president cf the American As-soc!a:;'>n of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese.
Debaters Get High Ratings
Two debate teams from USC were Riven superior ratings by the Speech Alternate Debating Tournament held at Pasadena City College recently.
More than 30 colleges and universities from the Southwest competed in the weekend debates in which the two USC teams compiled a 5-1 record

days of McCarthyism.
Birch Dissenters
Among the dissenters from the John Birch Society doctrines was law’ student Jerry Sarrow, who said, “Being against communism isn't enough, you have to be for something, too.”
Tom Schultz, another law student. claimed that the ideas of Robert Welch, founder of the Birch Society, were too intense for “any person in his right mind.” Schultz felt that Welch had merely ^iven a new form to the tactics oi the late Sen. Joe McCarthy.
Bob McLemore, a second year I pharmacy student. expressed faith in Moral Rearmament as j an alternative to the Birch So-j ciety.
“I feel that the John Birch So-! ciety is under excesive authoritarian command from Welch and is a spasmodic rather than well-defined organization,” he ex-i plained.
On the pro side, students ex-j pressed regret at the disbanding of the UCSB group, which they felt helped make the populace more aware of the Communist ! threat.
Shari Farrell, a senior in IR, defended the society as “an organization to better democracy.”
“Anything that makes people I t?ke an interest in government ! serves some useful purpose.” she explained. ‘ There is nothing subversive about it (the society), and its members are good citi-' zens who are active in govern-1 ment.”
Jim Kincheloe, a sophomore in economics, maintained that free speech should not be extended to the point that Communists are allowed to publicize their doctrines.
Group Justified
“Because of this, I think the society is justified in exposing Communist activity,” he said. I'm for anything that’s against communism.”

She said that the children, who will be selected this year, largely from the district surrounding USC, will be treated to a variety of activities and experiences while at the camp.

“Of course, one of the things the children like best is the overnight hike. It is a 3’2 mile trudge up a mountainside to sleep in the open in a meadow. The children—who range in age from eight to twelve—cam- bed rolls, which are practically as big as they are.”

Club to Hear Theater Topic By Producer
The «titus of the theater in
America today will be discussed at the Faculty Center at noon today by John Houseman, motion picture, TV and stage producer during the weekly meeting of the USC Faculty Center Association.
Houseman's most famous pictures are “Julius Caeser.” “Executive Suite,” and “Lust for Life.” He also produced “The Seven Lively Arts” and several Playhouse 90 shows for CBS-
TV.
Houseman has led a varied life. Bom in Rumania, he worked for two years in Argentina on a cattle ranch and in a bank. In 1922 he traveled to England and went to work for an international grain brokerage.
First Success
Houseman succeeded in his first effort in the U.S. theater in 1934 w'hen he produced and directed “Four Saints in Three
Acts.”
From there, it was one success after another for the young producer. In 1937 he joined with Orson Welles in forming the Mercury Theater and was in-j strumental in the “Men From
Mars” broadcast that rocked the nation in 1938.
During the war Houseman was in the Office of War Information. Afterward, he joined David Selznick in producing 14 motion pictures.
The producer’s academic career includes -r year as associate
professor at Vassar, and guest lectures at USC, UCLA and many other colleges.

Along with the lecture will be a showing of “La Strada" (The Road) at 8 p.m. in Hancock Auditorium. “La Strada” was directed by the well known contemporary director, Fredrico Fellini.
It was Fellini's first picture and is characterized by a search for identity, purpose and love.
Dr. Rinaudo-de Ville will explain the “Risirgimento” (Re-| surgence) movement, which had ! it's beginnings in th-? 1820's and I finally came to fruition in the | person of Giuseppe Garibaldi, i the most spectacular and popu-j lar figure in the movement for Italian unification.

Cuban Invasion May Halt Castro
(Editor's note. This is the eighth in a series of articles on Latin America by Penny Lernoux. Today she discusses the crisis in Cuba.)
+ * *
• By PENNY LERNOUX Daily Trojan City Editor Fidel Castro’s Cuba, according to the highly publicized reports of invasion this week, is tottering on the brink of a collapse that may be final.
The invasion has brought on riots and incriminations against both the U.S. and Castro from around the world, but bcth sides apparently intend to rer'ain firm on their different stands.
Yesterday, President John F. Kennedy warned Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev against living the revolt in Cuba as a pretext for stirring up trouble in ether areas of the world. But Ihe other areas were already stirred up. Indeed the tempest
in the Cuban teapot is boiling over.
Castro's Fall
Undoubtedly, Castro must eventually fall. The question is now only a matter of time as to when he sows the harvest of his own unfortunate making.
Actually, Castro has not been any worse a military dictator than his predecessor. Fulgencio Batista, if, indeed, as bad. But Castro committed a crime far more serious than any of Batista's.
Out of weakness and egotism, he let what could have been another Mexican revolution in Cuba turn into the usual Latin American circus cf dictatorial militarists with the added embellishment of Communism.
Back in The early days of his fight against Batista in the Sierra Maestra, few of his supporters ever imagined that things would turn out as they have. Those who today label Castro
beginning” (e.g. KTTV's grossly inaccurate program, “Castro, Cuba and Communism” of last week) are in error.
It is very doubtful that Castro had any such plans for Communist domination of the island during that time. He even preached pro-Americanism to his followers during the period of mountain guerilla warfare.
Not Communist Today, although outward appearances believe it. Castro is probably not personally Communist. But, because he is a weak man, he has not been able to stem—and now welcomes—the time of Communism that has enveloped Cuba.
When Castro overthrew Eatis-ta on Jan. 1. 1959, he was greeted with almost slavish adoration by a large part of the population.
The temptation became too much. In his role as “spokesman for the people” and chief of the popular revolution, he
as “Communist from the very j began to believe that opposition
to measures he proposed and to his own political ambitions were opposition to the revolution itself.
More important, however, he let Major Ernesto “Che’’ Guevara. one of Latin America’s i handed, leading Communists, take over the purse strings of the country as president of the Cuban National Bank.
Economic Trade
In this position, Guevara went happily about making economic trade agreements with the Communist European bloc and Red China.
Of course, the U. S.’s attitude toward Castro when he took over the country was not particularly conducive to developing good economic relations between the two countries.
For example, one of.Castro’s first requests of the U. S. was for a S4 million loan for road building equipment and a SI million barter deal of Cuba chrome for corn to meet a food short-

Due mainly to Guevara and his Communist cohorts and somewhat to the U. S. cold shoulder, Castro naturally turned to the Communists. At first, he had nothing to lose. He later found out that he would have everything to lose if the Communists decided to drop him.
