This isn’t the first big music writing break for the blond, pipe-smoking student. Anderson has composed scores for four documentary films. Last year he wrote ihe incidental music for the drama department’s production of "M idsummer Night’s Dream."

Anderson admits that music for a science-fiction movie does at times necessitate different sounds - futuristic, errie, weird But he said these can be accomplished without going overboard.
“Such sound.« shouldn't scare your audience,” Anderson said. "They should convince the audience, and describe and add to to the picture.”
Anderson said that film scoring differs from concert music because the form of the moving picture determines the form of the music.
“In concert music, musical sounds exist for their own sake,” he said. "The composer assigns his own limitations. In film music, the type of music and its texture are determined by the picl ure.”
In a love scene, Anderson must lose the tension, heroism, awe and fear texture of his music. The familiar earthly, man-woman relationship texiure must be brought in. The dissonance or quality of unrest in the music give way to harmony.
Composers Displease
Anderson is displeased with ihe snobbism among some composers who claim that good music can't be written for the screen and that any composer who is associated with film music is a hack writer.
‘‘True, a lot of bad music has been written for motion pictures, partially due to accelerated production schedules,” Anderson said.
However he pointed out that film music can be good. He cited the Quo Vadis Suite drawn from Miklos Rozas’s movie score. Anderson commented that this piece has been played by symphony orchestras all over ihe world. In Europe, he said, the best of symphonic composers w'rite for films.

Screening Panel Will Be Formed
A new proposed student-administrative plan governing campus speakers which could mean the end of a confused speaker policy and the beginning of a concrete one was approved today by President Norman Topping.
The revolutionary plan calls for the formation of a
- three or	six	man	com-
mittee which would have direct control and entire authority over speakers on the campus.
As a result of the ASSC Senate’s resolution for an “open door*’ policy which would enable anyone to speak on campus. Dr Topping called for a proposal limiting the Senate's plan.
"The Senate has ignored the fact that there can be no greater compliment paid by students than to be invited to speak to them.” Dr. Topping said.
He pointed out that being listened to is as important as having something to say, and a respectable attendance at the speech should be assured by the people who invite the speaker.
"In view of this, it is evident that some value judgments must be made by the students and perhaps not just a tiny minority.” Dr. Topping maintained.
In a meeting with four “lame-duck” members of the ASSC Senate — Abe Somer. Stan Arkin. Jim Bylin and Scott Fitz Randolph — Dr. Topping suggested the formation of a committee which would govern the selection of campus speakers.
"The committee will formulate an adequate program covering university policy toward all to feel that speakers." Dr. Topping explained.
This committee would consist of the student body resident, chairman of the faculty senate
