Live animals in 'Gypsy'
Continued from page 1
a jackass, all appearing in early scenes.
A 1923 Dodge Brothers touring car will actually be driven on stage, lent for "Gypsy" by Cecil Luse of McLouth, who collects antique machines.
Costumes for "Gypsy" range from flashy gold sequin bikinis to dowdy dresses to a cow outfit. Showgirls wear brightly colored satin, lamé and lace trimmed with feathers and fur.
One costume comes with its own instructions in the play. Mama Rose makes a coat from two wool blankets she steals, and Heahl is doing the same—with his own blankets.
Costume director Chez Haehl admitted he has made no sketches — "yet"—of the 150 costumes for the musical, and he has about "30 more to go." He is rushing as fast as the actors will, when they must make quick changes between scenes.
Full orchestra required
George Lawner, conductor of the orchestra, said "Gypsy" is a cooperative effort between the drama and music departments.
"The music department contributed the orchestra and musical director—me, in this case," he said.
the orchestra has 38 members, all but five saxophonists from the University Symphony Orchestra.
Lawner said "Gypsy" contains
17 different songs, including duets and choruses. Some are "Let Me Entertain You," "You Gotta Have a Gimmick," "Everything's Coming Up Roses," "Small World, Isn't It?" and "You'll Never Get Away From Me."
Choreographer for "Gypsy."
Anita Sorrells, instructor of dance and movement, is polishing the vaudeville tap-dance routines.
Actors explain roles
Verna Pierce, Winnetca, Ill.,
sophomore, plays Mama, the driving
force behind her daughters.
"Mama has a one-track mind," Miss Pierce said. "Her one idea is to get to the top. I wouldn't say she's ruthless, though, just unaware of what she's doing to people."
Herbie, the girls' theater agent, is played by Kip Niven, Prairie Village senior.
"Herbie is concerned with being indispensible to Mama. He is basically a weak person for putting up with Mama for so many years," Niven said.
Louise, the daughter who later rose to fame as Gypsy "Rose" Lee, is played by Parmalee Bates, New York City senior.
"She's very sure of herself!" Miss Bates said. "She made an art of being a great showwoman."
Susan Lotz, Wilmette, Ill., junior, plays June, the daughter who runs away from Mama to get married.
John Green, Chicago freshman,
plays Tulsa. Lynne Horwitz, Toppeka sophomore, plays Agnes.

You get more for a car that doesn't look its age.
A Volkswagen, for instance.
It costs about $1700* new.
Yet after three years a VW actually sells for more than some domestic cars that originally cost $2300.
How's that for a return on your investment.
And you pretty well know that the longer you own it, the better that return gets.
The reason Volkswagens hold their resale value so well is that they don't change from year to year to year.
Since VWs don't go out of style annually,it's hard to tell what year VW you're looking at.
One problem you never run into with domestic cars.
