Seeing Mary Manning’s stage version of •‘Finnegans Wake” ami understanding James Joyce’s original novel are two distinct experiences. As it turned out Iasi night. ihe play by itself is a memorable experience.
Anri whether or not art by definition must be entertainment. the drama department production was entertainment, and the audience in Stop Gap Theater enjoyed it immensely.
This is not to say that the play did not illustrate Joyce's theme of the eternal cycle of life and regeneration of the livine. To the credit of Norman Lofland, it rather transcended bis theme and brought to the stage whal is more worldly religion than propaganda, if that can exist; an instrument of allegory in wl.ich soul is more important Ilian intellect, no matter what
There was a feeling of eternity and not the harangue of Joyce’s dour outlook on life: there was Joyce's musical proce and not ihe weicht of his individual, petty. multilingual puns and slurs and vague illusions (suecubus is sissibus 1.

The play was a technical jewel also to the credit of Lofland. Movement was as slick as a professional production, costumes were apt and interesting, and settincr and props were surrealist ically hare and right.
The lighting was superb: a brilliant, deathlike, lively green over the faces of the living and the dead, an orange that evoked dawn and rebirth, and a red that was suddenly enveloping the tableau of the wake in a manifestation of hell.
Lofland's pacing and rhythm were also remarkable—and the music of Joyce’s language was
KUSC to Air | New Program On Economics
"Contemporary economics, sec-end of three new programs going over KUSC’s airwaves this month, will be broadcast at 8 p.m. tonight.
Jack A Portney, SC economics J instructor, will speak on the ‘‘Forces and Factors in Inflation Since World War II."
Pressures behind United States and world economy that are contributing to current inflationary nroblems will be discussed by Pontnev.
KUSC program director Rill Sprague said that the program should be of special interest to economics, international relations and political science ma-I jors.
Covers Wide Area
Forthcoming ‘'Contemporary Economics” programs will covei many different aspects of economics throughout the world.
Next week Dr. Robert Campbell. assistant professor of eco^ nomics at SC. will discuss “Economic Comnetition with the Soviet Union.”
Dr. William H. Anderson, head of SC's economic department, will analyze ‘‘Problems in Federal Debt Management on Dec. 30.
“Contemporary Economics” is produced in cooperation with the department of economics.
Others Debut Last nicht ‘‘Canadian Portrait.” another new KUSC- FM r^dio feature, was aired for the fir«’! time.
The program which is produced in cooperation with the Canadian Rroadcasting Corp.. j provides weeklv glimpses into j 'he life a:id landscape of Ameri- i ca's northern neighbor.
Dramas, comedy and docu- ' mentary presentations highlight j the show, which is heard at 7:30, said Sprague.
Presents Poetry The third of KUSC's new programs. “Poetry and Talk.” will tie broadcast Friday at 8 p.m. Readings by contemporary poets will be presented, along with d’scussions of poetry and cultural events in the Los Angeles area.
Dr. Peter Carr, publisher-printer of the C.allinas Press will !io«t the program. Dr. Carr received his PhD in comparative literature from SC, and did C’aduate work at the University of Paris and Johns Hopkins University.

carried throughout a number of difficult passages where it could have become tiring and prosaic.
The play is interesting in that the general idea does not appear through a specific progression o< action as in most theater. Each new phrase—each new' inci
dent seems to obliterate what has been said and done immedi-parsatelv before, and the Iheme appears in an abstract impression that lies vaguely in the back of one’s mind.
And, so, dreamlike, irrelevant comments and speeches flame suddenly like eternal truths, and before the spectator can grasp them or realize that they are nothing and nonsense, they are replaced by new dreamlike thoughts that build on them and build the idea of regeneration and an everlasting cycle of river. ! se^>. mist, rain and life.
The play will continue tonight j through Sunday at 8:30 in Stop Gan Theater. Admission is one dollar.
“Finneean’s Wake is being i done bv Lofland as a master's thesis presentation, in which he is responsible for all phases and asnects of production.
This play is an abridgement ; for the stage of the novel which i was the culmination for Joyce 1 of his work with stream-of-con-sciousness as a writing technique.

Dr. Saltman
Gets $75,000
Study Grant
Dr. Paul Saltman was awarded a 5-year Senior Post Doctoral Fellowship by the National Institute of Health this week. The Fellowship is the first of its kind to be awarded to an SC staff member.
Next year. Dr. Saltman. an associate professor of biochemistry and nutrition, will go to Denmark to study mechanisms of biological transport. His wife i and two children will accompany him.
He will return to SC the fol- i lowing year to complete biological studies on the grant.
The award, which covers all j travel and study expenses, is va'ued at approximately $75.000. ]
Dr. Saltman came to SC in 1953 after earning his RS in I chemistry and his PhD in biochemistry at Cal Tech.
For one year he did research and graduate study on a re- j search scholarship at the College de France in Paris.
Main interests in Dr. Salt-man's academic life include research in current biochemistry problems, the teaching of biochemistry to SC students and the communication of scientific knowledge to the non-scientific principle.
Dr. Saltman also is adviser to the Democrats on campus and has taken part in radio and television programs on such topics as science, philosophy and religion.

The TIargi Rubber Technology laboratory projects were moved j from an old brick building at j 36th pi. and Hoover st. to the i petroleum and chemical engi-l neering building, Lazzaro said. The brick structure was a grocery store before coming into university possession.
Department Moved
He added that the mechanical engineering department, formerly occupying a Quonset hut and an airplane hangar, have relocated in the engineering building.

Movie Actor Will Speak
Movie actor Dean Jones, formerly with MGM. will read from j Franz Kafka before the Wesley ! Club at University Methodist Church tonight at 6.
Jones’ reading of Kafka's “Re- ■ port to an Academy” will be followed by a discussion led by j Methodist minister Rill Steele.
The Rev. Mr. Steele, who serves a congregation in Woodland Hills, will bring out the impications and meaning of the Kafka work.
Actor Jones, who was under contract to MGM for three years, co-starred with Frank Sinatra and Gina Lollobrigida in “Never So Few.”
He had the lead in “Handle with Care.” which was quite successful in Europe, winning film of the month in England and receiving the Laurel award.
Jones will soon do a Rroadway play for Joshua Logan.
The Wesley Club event will follow supper, served at 5.
! and the clearance of temporary I ¡structures, (mostly barracks» I j west of the two engineering i j buildings, the university has i taken another step toward com-i pleting its planned Engineering ; Quad, Lazzaro said.
The former location of the j house will be turned into a park- 1 i ing lot in the near future and eventually into another engineering building.
Long-range plans call for a building to house all engineering research facilities on the present barracks site, Lazzaro explained.
Form Quadrangle
He said the two present buildings and the two proposed structures will form a quadrangle j which the university will fully landscape.
Work on the engineering project began late in September when the university cleared away six old structures on Hoover st. between 36th pi. and 37th st.
The apartment house on 36th pi. was the only building on the block not in the possession of SC when the clearance project started, Lazzaro said.
Crews Close SC s Streets
All streets leading into University Avenue now are owned by SC and shortly will be closed to automobile traffic, Anthony D. Lazzaro, director of the physical plant, announced today.
Work is proceeding to close in the intersections of 35th st. and Hoover blvd., 35th pi. and Hoover blvd., 36th pi. and Hoover st., 37th st. and Hoover st. and 34th st. and I'ni-versity Ave., Lizzaro said.
“Eventually, these streets will resemble the intersection of 36th and Hoover sts., w hich is integrated into the campus landscape,” the director added.
At that time, the plant director said that the clearance of structures and utility poles from the block was an important step toward the fulfillment of a long-range campus master plan.
He said when the plan is completed, SC will own the land from Figueroa st. to Vermont ave. and from Exposition blvd. to Jefferson blvd.

A provisional government consisting of 40 senators appointed by Karabian will take over the student government operation during the time between the constitutional election and the next general student body election held in the spring semester.
Dubin, chairman of the presidential constitutional committee, appeared almost certain of a positive victory at tonight's meeting at 7:15 in the Senate chambers.
If the Senate does pass the new’ constitution tonight, and all opposition seems to have faded from sight since a revised document was circulated Monday, then it will go to the election polls for final student body ratification.
New Government If that election shows that the student body is in favor of a new' government, the old Senate will be dissolved and the Dubin-Karabian provisional government will be set up.
"Members of the present Senate will petition the president and he will appoint 40 of them to serve as a temporary body,”

Plans recently outlined by Ruilding Committee chairman Arthur Kooker for the proposed Faculty Club Ruilding indicate that the new structure will be a glamorous as well as functional addition to the SC campus.
Although there is still debate as to whether the club will be able to afford its modern clubhouse, planning of the building continues.
At last week’s progress report meet inc. Dr. Kooker announced that ihe architect’s plans for the building which is to be ready await final approval by the Board of Trustees. The club has not yet received final approval on the interior plans.
The club is meeting this week with ihe Roard of Trustees in an attempt to get linal approval on the construction plans, reported Dr. Russell 11. Caldwell, presi-| dent.
"We hope to break ground for
year, and I still believe we can finish the building on schedule,” Dr. Caldwell said.
As vet no construction bids have been let on the $250,000 building which is to be ready for occupancy by next fall.
Designed by architect Quincq Jones, the new Faculty Club will feature a spacious dining room with a seating capacity of 185.
The building, which will be constructed immediately adja-
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Professor Will Discuss Roles of Husband, Wife
Dr. James A. Peterson, associate professor of sociology, will discuss the distinct roles of man and vvife in marriage at the Faculty Club's noon luncheon in the University Commons today.
Dr. Petei«on has been in charge of the SC marriage education pogram since 19:>0 and pioneered ihe development of a graduate program in marriage counseling leading to the PhD
i Ihe building eatly in the coming , degree.
He also heads his own counseling service, (he Peterson Marriage Clinic, and stars on his own CBS-TV program “For Better or Worse.”
Dr. Peterson's book. “Education for Marriage,” has been adopted as a text by 50 universities and colleges lei.s than six months after its publication. He recently finished five dramas for I lie “Way,” a dramatic series screened by the National Council of Churches.
I cent to the east side of Town and Gown Foyer, will make its dining facilities readily available and convertible lor Faculty Club i use.
A large fireplace will separate the dining area from a lounge across the hall. A game room will lie built on the northeast j ; side of the club complete with ,
I game equipment.
Three “VIP” meeting rooms are included in the architect's drawings, as well as Faculty I Club offices. Outside terrace [ j gardens are to be constructed I just off the dining area and I j meals may be served there in good weather.
There will also be several pri-| vate dining rooms as well as a I faculty grill where short lunches I ! and snacks will be available.

j general spring election which will probably be held between j the seventh and twelfth weeks of school,” he added.
“Working with the 40 senators will be a newly-formed Executive Committee.” Dubin con-j tinued.
The Executive Committee will already be in existence since the 8-man power-unit includes the ASSC president and vice president. AMS and AWS presidents and the four class presidents.
Set I'p Rules “The Executive Committee as well as the appointed senators will sit as an unofficial body and set up the preliminary rules of conduct for the new Senate,” he said.
Karabian said that this group wouid merely plan, not legislate.
"While the other groups are being formed, (the fields of study representatives), to hold office, the Senate will be in this provisional state and will operate as a planning committee,” the president explained.
Unanimous Senate approval was almost guaranteed on Monday when Dubin and Karabian, working with the opposition’s ideas, came up with a revised constitution.
leading Field The revised document specifically listed the major fields of J study and handed out the exact number of representatives from each field.
“Each major field of study has one seat.” Dubin explained. “A major field of study is given to any group which has at least 200 members in its association.” The leading field of study rep-resentative-groups is the School of Commerce with five representatives. Other high groups j include Social Studies with 5;
! Engineering with 4; and Education with 3.
Other minor revisions pacified I the opposing factions and the Dubin-Karabian student government was just about in.
New Concepts Dubin’s 12-Article document; has seven new and radical stu- I dent government concepts, all of which intend to give student government more influence and better organization.
They are:
1.	A presidential veto never : before in existence.
2.	Fields-of-Study representation eliminating the present sen-ators-at-large and serv ice groups' t direct legislation.
3.	Strong Executive officers embodied in the eight-man Executive Committee.
4.	A shorter general election ballot.
5.	Central control of all uni-act ivilies and organiza-
their tabs.”

Dr. Edward Stainbrook. head of SC's psychiatry department, said that he signed a “friend of the court'’ petition presented to the Supreme Court yesterday on behalf of kidnap-rapist Caryl Chessman because of the basic “c.vil rights” principles involved.
Along with 21 Southern Californians and psychiatrist Karl A. Menninger of Topeka, Kan., Dr. Stainbrook signed a petition which said that Chessman was entitled to a fast and speedy trial and that a basic civil right had been seriously violated.
Other signers included TV entertainer Steve Allen, author Aldous Huxley, Dr. William F. Graves, former prison staff physician at San Quentin »where Chessman has been in death row for the past 11 years) and actress Phyllis Kirk.
Strong Sentiments The petition said:
“We believe that much more is involved in this case than the life of one petitioner.
“What is involved is the right of every citizen to a fair trial in a criminal case; to due process in a meaningful sense: to the equal protection of the laws; to an impartial objective, dispas-| sionate enforcement of the law against a defendant in a criminal case bv the prosecution and judicial officers, without regard to the personality and character ; of the defendant.
“We believe that in this case, petitioner has been denied these elements of due process and has been materially prejudiced thereby.”
Eighth Appeal Chessman's eighth appeal to escape the gas chamlier was fi'ed Nov 2 and the high court has not ruled whether it will again i hear his case.
Dr. Stainbrook said that he had sisned the petition strictly ; as an individual because of certain “principles involved.”
“The law was never intended to persecute a man by holding the constant threat of death over his head.” Dr. Stainbrook said.
He maintained that the continual postponement of the penalty was unfair to Chessman.
No Personal Interest “I do not know Chessman personally and do not car»» to know him,” he said. "But there is a 1 definite principle involved here i concerning our basic rights as American citizens.”
Chessman’s appeal contends that the author-eonvict’s detention in Death Row for nearlv twelve years and the set tine and | postponement of his execution date seven times constituted “cruel and unusual nunishment.” Poor Record Chessman asked either for a new trial or his freedom.
He contended, in his apneal backed un by this petition, that he was denied a fair hearing on his earlier challenge of th ord of his trial.
The official court reporter at the trial died and his notes were transcribed by another renorter.
Yesterday's “friend of the court” papers were filed by Attys. Nathan L. Schoichet and Morris E. Cohn of Beverly Hills and Clore Warne of Los Angeles.
