Mr. Hesmondhalgh's speech on the "British Views on the Suez Crisis" is sponsored by the Student Gavernment Public Affairs Forum. Some of the topics which will be discussed, according to Forum chairman Steve Nagler, are: "Why the British do not want to leave the Suez." "The Kplil in the British Government because of Ithe Suez invasion," and "The future effects on the world because of the Suez crisis." A section of the newspaper's report of the sermon reads: Mr. Blackwelder, who had been a divinity student in New York City, contrasted George Washington University with City College, New York. After World War U, he said, the number of atheistic and Com- munist students at City College reached such proportions "that conditions of bedlam pre- vailed." President Deeply Disturbed The story was called to the at- tention of President Gallagher and he issued a reply Wednesday. In his statement, Dr. Gallagher noted that like Reverend Black- jja&eidej^ he &<> J& a New. JYoriL City theological school graduate J and an ordained minister. "I share his interest in freedom of religion,' 'the President stated, "but I am deeply disturbed! by his erroneous charge that atheism ever flourished at City College, This charge is untrue and he ought to have known it to be untrue." , } 'i President Gallagher's reply to the ministers charges was re- ported in Thursday's issue of the Washington Post and Times Her- ald.

Only 320 pints of blood were donated to the Blood Bank last Friday out of a total of 400 student pledges. The American Red Cross has asked for a pledge of 200 extra pints of blood. If this new quota can be reached, the Blood Mobile will be set up for the second time this semesier next Monday be- tween 10 AM and 4 PM in Knittle Lounge, Shepard Hall and in the Grand Ballroom of the Finley Student Center. The quota has been raised because of the added expense to the Red Cross in- volved in returning to the Col- lege. This is the first time since the initiation of the Blood Bank Drive in 19&1 that the goal set for the semester was not reached.. The goal of the drive had fceea lowered this term from 450 pints to 400 pints of blood. . i

•A Review

Bell, Book and Candle .By Jack Monet.

Tuesday, December U, 1956

Although "Bell, Book and Candle" is a comedy about witch­craft, Dramsoc's production of ilie John Van pruten fantasy Friday evening was less than enchanting. For the play, a fluffy and deli­cate trifle about a love-bewitched modern sorceress, can only be entertaining when performed with deftness and grace. Since only one of the five members of the cast had ever acted on a stage before, the performance lacked the suavity and [polish necessary to weave a uniform spell and there were only occasional moments of humor.

' Without the successful evocation of the humor in Van Druten's witty dialogue and merry situations, the evening was in general unsatisfying. Dramsoc's production fails because "Bell, Book and Candle" is so light and airy that only strong artistic performances by exceptional talents can make it succeed. In the Broadway pro­duction, several years agp, the two lead roles were played by Lilli

Palmer and Rex Harrison. The successful run of the play then can be attributed to the Harri­sons.

Though the Dramsoc produc­tion was admirable by standards usually applied to college drama groups, it was far from effec­tive in displaying to full ad-1 vantage Van Druten's sophisti­cated comedy.

The f a n t a s y whimsically sketches the efforts of a sorceress, Gillian Holroyd, to entice and maintain the love of a bachelor publisher who lives in a neigh­boring apartment. In this en­deavor, she is alternately assisted and thwarted by her younger brother and her aunt, both of whom are also mischievously po­tent in the black arts. Occasion­ally, a befuddled writer on witch­craft meanders in and out of the

tale, contributing to the complication. Gillian quickly gains the publisher's love bly casting a spell on

him, and for a while he is nothing more than an infatuation for her. But presently she begins to fall in love \wifh him—a imortal folly fox a witch, for she thus loses her supernatural powers. Their romance falters temporarily, but at the end, Gillian gladly trades her cauldron for pots and pans.

As the young sorceress, Mitzi Metzel was beguiling and seduc­tive in the early scenes and touchingly feminine in the later scenes, when she lost both her magical powers and' her love. Less satisfy­ing was Danny Solomon in the role of the publisher. He rarely appeared comfortable while standing or moving about the stage, and faltered several times in the : delivery of his lines.

For the moments when the play was most enjoyable, credit must be given to the captivating performance of Janet Ades as Aunt Queenie. As the elderly witch who loved mischief, Miss Ades was wonderfully impish. In one scene her wiiming ways drew from the audience spontaneous applause—about the only time that the audience was moved to respond beyond an occasional chuckle.

Larry Lerman in the role of the rouguish sorcerer, Saras almost an remarkably amusing. For a novice to the stage, he displayed un­usual poise and a droll sense of humor. Peter Rossi was moderately entertaining as the naive wxiter on witchcraft.

Group Formed On Curriculum

The first student-faculty com­mittee ever empowered to advise on curricular matters has been formed in the School of Liberal Arts and Science. The committee, which held its first meeting two weeks ago, will refer its resolu­tions to Dr. Morton S. Gottschall, Dean of the School.

Louise Schacknow, Student Council member and chairman of the group, urged yesterday that students and faculty members of­fer specific advice or criticism relating to the curriculum. Let­ters should be addressed to the Student-Faculty Committee on Liberal Arts and ScieAce, and left'. in Room 151, Finley Student Cen- j ter. !

"This committee is important; to students," Miss Schacknow; said, "because it is their first,' chance to have their voices heard; on curricular questions. They now I have a direct method by which j to voice their opinions." j

Other members of the commit- i tee are Professor Frank Brescia i (Chemistry), Professor M a r k ; Brunswick (Chmn., Music), Pro-! fessor Louis Snyder (History), | Marvin Gettleman, '57 SC mem-, ber, and Emile Tilleman, an Eve-; ning Session student. \

Pastnotes... • Professor Nicholas Kaldor, noted British economist, will be the guest speaker tomorrow at the first dinner of Omicron Chi Epsilon, the National Economics Honor Society. Mr. Kaldor, a Fellow at Cambridge University, England and presently a vis­iting Professor at {Columbia University, will speak on "Recent-Trends in Economic Thought."

• Vector, the College's engineering magazine, will go on sale Thursday. The magazine, -which sells for twenty-five cents, will be sold from booths located in Lincoln Corridor and opposite Knittle Lounge, Shepard Hall, the entrance to Townsend Harris and the Tech crossroads in Goethals Hall.

• The Used Book Exchange is now accepting applications for the positions of Manager and Assistant Manager. All applica­tions must be submitted in Room 151 Finley before Friday.

CWlio's Trying: to Oonf-uLOiias*?)

Many moons ago . . . around 600 B. a barkeep named Draw Wun in a Times Square in Shanghai. Now this cashbox was loaded with loot, as Wun the greatest brew tha t side of the

" M u r d e r , " said W u n , one p . m near 9 as the cats were clamoring for more beer, " I ' m getting all shook up faying to keep gung-ho on the tap , take the cash, and figure out the change. I don ' t dig tha t math ."

The beer Wun was crying in belonged to a calculus prof from the local U.

*&'

"Gad, Dad," sympathized the math man, "keep cooL I'll think of something. You can count on i t . "

So the prof rickshawed home and took a bath . Soon he was heard to shout, "Eureka!" (in Chinese, of course). He had solved the problem by inventing the abacus.

Next day he brought in a counting gizmo made of bam­boo and cranberries. With this mechanical brain, Wun was able to introduce the time-payment plan, because one day a patron and Wun did thds bit across the mahogany:

" I have a yen for two cold ones to go," said the customer.

"Sorry, friend, we don' t accept Japanese currency," Wun lunged.

" I ' m flat, cat ," came the reply, "got a suggestion?"

Whereupon Wun played a few fast notes on his abacus, figured the terms of a loan for two beers and said, "Borrow one and carry t w o " . . . two terms still used in modem mathematics.

So you can see t h a t ' s how Wun got a charge o u t of his abacus.

MORAL: When it comes to mathe-

ynaticSy you can count on an

abacus if you ivant to. But

when it comes to beer, figure

on Budweiser. Ifs the best

draught beer any side of the

Yangtze. You can count on it.
