Hoffmann'' Pleases Capacity Audience
By MARILEE MILROY
The SC opera department's second performance of Offenbach's French music fantasy, “Tales of Hoffmann,” was heard last Saturday night in Bovard Auditorium in an English version.
In a near-professional manner, Jahn Maloy as Hoffmann, the aimless, amorous poet, captured the capacity audiencc composed of mostly elderly persons and a few students. From his entrance in the epilogue where Hoffmann telis a group of students about three of his romances. one in each act. to the curtain close where the poet in a drunken stupor is alone on si age. his fellow companions leaving him to his faithful love, the Muse of Poetry, Maloy’s
UCLA Rally Set Tomorrow
The foot bail rally for the SC-UCLA game will be held tomorrow night at 9:45 on Bovard Field and will be followed with a street dance in the laculty parking lot behind Founders Hall.
“Were holding the rally on Tuesday because of the Thanksgiving vacation ” Pat McDermott. publicity chairman for tbe ASSC Rally Committee, sponsor ol the event, said.

Dann Ansreloff will lead the rally along with the other cheerleaders.

light tenor voice and excellent hearing rang true to the character.
Melodramatic Villain
French Tickner’s villains, who shatter every romance of Hoffmann, gave humor while retaining the quality of sorcery. Especially commendable was his Coppelius, who slunk about tne stage in melodramatic fashion in the first act.
“Tales of Hoffmann’* will be presented tomorrow night in Bovard Auditorium at 8:80 for the last time this semester. Tickets may be purchased today and tomorrow in the Administration Building Ticket Office.

Noon Panel Airs Middle East Crisis
An estimated 200 SC Arab students are expected to overflow 229 Founder Hall today at noon when a six-member panel of faculty members and students stage an open discussion on the situation now existing in the troubled Middle East.
The program, scheduled to last one hour, is under the sponsorship of the 400-n^ember SC Arab Students Organization.
The Anglo-French invasion of Egypt, the danger of Russian “volunteer" intervention and the status of the newly-formed United Nation Police Force will be aired by the panel group.
States Aim “This is an attempt to bring to the students the unique experiences of these people, with the aim of illuminating the present situation in the Middle East,” said Samiar Haijjar. president of the SC Arab Student Organization.
Members of the recognized j Arab Student Organization r«e- | ceived the green light to hold the discussion after similar attempts by the anonymous Afro-Asian protest group failed.
The Afro-Asian group, it was j felt by the administration, did not represent the majority of | the foreign students on campus, ! Miss Haijiar explained.
Six-members The six-member panel is comprised of Dr. Leslie R. Loschen, assistant professor of accounting. and former Near East exchange teacher; Abdel Salam Mousse. Egyptian graduate student. who served as a member of the Cario City Council for two and a half years, shortly before 1955: William Wake, chairman of the World University Service, who recently returned from the Near East, and who
ities in love.
James Coday appeared enjoy-ablv Wizard of Oz-like as the mad scientist and Ray Arbizu’s facial expressions while the doll sang provided background action — rarely seen in many college productions.
The first act chorus wore black and white costumes in rm array of styles. Perhaps the fantasy of the occasion was enhanced by the crew-cuts among the male members of the chorus?
One immediately became oriented to Venice when the second act curtain opened to a blue-grey setting of various levels attained by steps and a round slanted platform from which rose straw-resembling pillars.
Eclipse Sustains Mood
This platform was used to set off Giulietta whose cunning oe-ceptive nature. Marion Oles succeeded in depicting.
James Gibbons as Giuliefta's lover was a bit overshadowed by the excellence of the other players althoug it may be because ers although it may be because the length of his part was not sufficient to show his full scope.
A lunar eclipse during the second act intermission preserved the mood of fantasy until the third act.
This act moved at a slowr pace livened by the deep, powei tul voice of Carl Schultz playing Crespel, a violin-maker, and the splendid manipulation of the comic relief scene by Ray Ar-bizu.
Antonia Not Convincing
The Antonia of Virginia Bitar was not convincing. She sprang to life only w'hen she was singing — in fact one time springing on tip-toes to the center of the stage before she started singing. Antonia also managed to be caught outside of the curtain during the curtain call at the end of the opera. Miss Bitar did. however give an essential and necessary sweetness to Antonia and has a beautiful clear tone when she sings her highest notes.
Orchestra Lauded
The orchestra, under the direction of Walter Dueloux, played the airy music of Offenbach giving it the undertones of witchcraft. A supreme blending of voice and instrument was maintained throughout the evening's performance.
The lighting director. William C. White, and crew’ are to ho praised for their alertness in performing much of the magic seen on stage.
John Blankenchip, on settings and costumes, and French Tickner and Stephen Arpas on make up, deserve mention for their creative and imaginative treatment and effects.

Under the warm sun over Cromwell and Bovard Fields, the immortal four horsemen rode again. In literature they were known as Death, Pestilence, Famine and War, but last Friday in the Knights-Squires Orphan Bowl they were better known as Meads, Madera. Fagerhult and Mer-
ganthaler.----*--—
Sparked by the brilliant third quarter ten-micron touchdown run of Bob Meads, the Knights scored a hard-fought 6-0 win over their "little brothers,” the Squires.
Statistics prove the validity of the outcome. Total yards showed the Knights gaining four times as much as their opponent; eight yards to two.

Lost your decency and respect for fellow students, Trojans? The student parking lots shout you have.
It’s a mighty low creature who will run another student’s car into the street where it is sure to get a ticket for double parking.
Selfishness reigns supreme when a student blocks the parking lot lanes so his fellow students can’t get in or out.
These are only two of the many thoughtless tricks played on the SC parking stage every day. An irate witness to a Trojan parking prank exploded that it was “the sneakiest thing since Mata Hari.”
Strict Enforcement

the car you rolled out into the street back in the parking lot. You don't enjoy parking tickets; maybe the other student doesn't either.”
The police policy is one of strict law enforcement, Lee stated. The traffic officer writes tickets for violations. He hasn't time to investigate each ticket to determine who is responsible for the infraction of the law.
The Captain further warned that when a student leaves his car open with the keys in it, he is legally giving any person implied permission to move it. Open cars are also a great temptation to thieves as many a sad Trojan has reported to University station.
(iet To School Early
“SC students have the idea that they are immune to tickets,” Lee frowned. He continued that the students never seem to learn. Every year the police give the students a week’s grace and they don’t take heed. Then the law cracks down. Fifty to 100 citations are given out in the next week or fwo. Finally the students’ pocket books begin to hurt and violations correspondingly begin to decline. Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the worst days.
“The late students.” the Captain mused, “Are the ones usually caught without a place to park their hunk of steel.” Moral —get to school early, real early.
Another Lee suggestion was that fraternity and sorority members quit driving their cars to campus. “Don’t be a parking space hog when you can ride a bike or walk.” he said. The Captain asked that they leave the space for students driving from homes as far as 30 mile6
away. These distant students should also help by doubling— up on rides.
S2-S10 Parking Fines When asked about the Coliseum parking facilities, Lee said they were closed by the 6th Agricultural district because damage was done to the lots and the group could not afford to keep on making needless repairs.
Parking tickets aren't cheap either. They range from $2 to $10. Multiply the cost of a ticket by five days’ by a semester—this mode of parking the old bus would be expensive to say the least.
SC Business Manager Elton D. Philips stated that money is the big question in developing more and better parking facilities. The only plan at present is to make available all the parking space possible with the greatest economy according to Philips. Parking attendants on small lots are I too expensive, he said.
