“But this doesn't mean that ihe American woman should not have a college education," he quickly added.

“She should be on intellectual terms with her husband,” he said. “She should lie able to talk with him and his friends as their equal.
“She has great influence on the American scene and must be well-educated in order to wield that influence wisely,” he said.
Dr. Caldwell thinks that most girls attending college today are looking for a man who is going someplace.
“I consider this in ideal goal.’’
Chanty Fund
To Hit $4000
Troy Camp donations are expected to have rocketed over the proposed $4000 mark, although the final count won’t be known until later today, said Chairman Bruce Stuart.
A final boost came from stu-dents attending Saturday’s football game, who nave freely to the cause.
The drive, which started last Monday, will result in the sending of 150 underprivileged children to summer camp next year.
This year’s drive indicates that the students realize the importance of this project and are more than willing to back

MASTER SPEAKS—Matter film director, William Wyler, iks to a number of disciples in the SC cinema dement. His latest production, "Ben Hur,” follows a iber of other successful pictures including "Roman Hoii-" "The Big Country,” and "Friendly Persuasion."
By MIKE ROBINSON
The use of the close-up shot in motion pictures was recently declared one of the greatest drawbacks of all times to the film industry by director William Wyler.
Wyler, who has just finished the mammoth production “Ben Hur.” spoke to large gathering of delighted cinema students last Thursday evening.
He said his chief objection against close-ups was the fact that such shots exclude everything else.
Close-up Ruined
“Although the close-up may fulfill its purpose of showing a person’s deep emotions, good scenes are often ruined.” he explained.
Wyler pointed out that in one of his pictures he was shooting liiree different people — each one close up.
“The acting was very good and a friend of mine said, ‘That scene will be three times as good when those are run together.’”
Wyler replied, "It will be one-third as good.”
He added that when it ran 111 the picture, “it wasn’t very good at all.”
One Shot
Wyler said he would have preferred to have shot the scene altO"t her.
“I would have had ir filmed so that all three people were seen well, and I would have shifted the camera angles to iliift the emphasis on each one 1 of them,“ lie explained.
The celebrated director told I the attentive students that he developed this technique from a ¡cameraman he worked with af-I ter the war, who always filmed sharp pictures.
“Because the whole picture ! was always good, I tried to fill j the screen with characters, and avoided a great deal of cutting he said.'
Action and Reaction
"I would put one in the foreground. one in the middleground and one in the background. This i way I let the audience do its I own cutting, giving another ad-! vantage they see both action | and reaction at the same time,” he added.
The use of color film is another of Wyler's objections al-I though he admitted “now you j have to have a reason not to use I color.”
He maintained that "we have not yet found a way to get the sharpness in color that we get with black and white.
In color you can’t have something important in your scene going on in the background.
Color Unnatural
"Usually color seems unnatural because were not used to looking at color with a frame around it. When a person sees, he sees a certain range of scene-1,v and then i-t blurs off al Hie corners,” he added.
As the air cooled off about 10 p.m. in the cinema projection room, W> ler kept his audience, warm with his red hot humor.
One sludent, fascinated by the goose Samantha in “Friendly Persuasion.” asked the director about the animal.
“Well. I tell you,” Wyler began in a style of speaking all his own. "We had about 14 geese in ’Friendly Persuasion.’ We had a special director who did nothing else for weeks but work with the geese and their trainer, who could teach each goose to do so much and nothing else.
Goose Scenes
“We had a number of scenes with those geese in them, and— I tell you — they practically drove me. crazy,” he quipped.
and tonight's meeting will be held in honor of the Cornell Society of Hotelmen, of which many members of the Los Angeles area will attend.
After dinner. Professor Merle L. McGinnis, head of the food distribution program in the SC School of Commerce, will be chairman of a food panel discussion, which will be held by four of his students.

He told how one Quaker was shown in church saving. “I’m not going to raise a weapon against my fellow man no matter what they do.”
“He got so violent about his non-violence, he was actually bad.” Wyler said.
Renegade Quaker “On the other hand,” he continued, “the father, Gary Cooper, was a renegade Quaker. Hut we tried to show that he was the best Quaker of all because he was not an extremist."
Wyler, who did a number of documentary films during the war, said the main difference

What do two “egomaniacs” say to each other when they ! meet? What do they have to I talk about, and how do they act I toward each other?
These questions will be answered and discussed at the noon reading today in 129 FH by Dr. Harold Briggs. English professor.
In finding these answers. Dr. Briggs will read excerpts from James Boswell’s journal in which he describes his meetings with the French philosopher Rousseau.
“The English Boswell is best known for his biography of the English author Samuel Johnson," Dr. Briggs explained, "while Rousseau was, perhaps, the greatest philosopher and revolutionist of the romantic period.” First Meeting
The two men met lor the first time 111 1764. Boswell, who kept an almost daily account of his activities, described ihe encounter.s which ensued throughout the week.
"It is an amusing account in which Roswell points up the inevitable clash resulting between
the two egomaniacs. Dr. Brig: said.
“In addition to the humoroi aspect of Boswell'* autobu graphical sketch, the papers a i significant because of the In j torical interest of the two men 1 he added.
The readings which Dr. Bi is: will present cover a large ran^ 'of conversation indulged in t) the two notables.
Notes Just Found
Material for the reading vvi be obtained from some of Bo? well's notes which have bee I found only recently.
“It is extremelv interesting t note that Boswell's works ar being discovered still. I* Briggs said. “In keeping wit the theme of this semester noon readings, 'Discovery

Next week's English department noon reading will be presented by Harry Reed. English professor. He will read from James Thurbers “You Could Look It Up.”
