University Theater To Present Shaw Play Shaw versus Shakespeare—that could well be the summing up of George Bernard Shaw's stimulating and famous introduction to "The Dark Lady of the Sonnets" which will be presented by University Theater Wednesday through Saturday in Fraser theater with Christopher Fry's "A Phoenix Too Frequent." The Shaw play was written on the $ ^{\textcircled{8}} $ The Shaw play was written on supposition—disproved at the time—that the Dark Lady to whom Shakespeare addresses 25 of his sonnets was Mary Fitton, one of Queen Elizabeth's maids of honor. Mr. Harris wrote a play on Shape speare some years before Mr. Shaw wrote "The Dark Lady" in 1910. In the introduction to his play, Mr. Shaw seultles—or attempts to many of Mr. Harris' and other conventional interpretations of the bard's life. was anything but idolatrous, and that his pessimism was—if anything—the result of having to write some popular plays for a British public that did not understand him. Mary Fitton is described by G. B. Harrison as "a lively lady who became the mother of three illegitimate children by different men, but afterward married richly and died very respectably." The late, caustic Irish playwright says this in his introduction: "Frank Harris conceives Shakespeare to have been a broken-hearted, melancholy, enormously sentimental person, whereas I am convinced that he was very like myself: in fact, if I had been born in 1556 instead of in 1856, I should have taken to blank verse and given Shakespeare a harder run for his money than all the other Elizabethans put together." Mr. Harris contended that Shakespeare's pessimism was caused by the bitterness of the Dark Lady affair. Mr. Shaw retorts that the bard's passion for the Dark Lady whose identity is still unknown, If Mr. Harris' interpretation is accepted, then Shakespeare becomes a pitiable, tragic figure with his irony and gaiety lost, Mr. Shaw continues. "Take these away and Shakespeare is no longer Shakespeare: all the bite, the impetus, the strength, the grim delight in his own power of looking terrible facts in the face with a chuckle, is gone." Mr. Shaw says. Most "bardolaters" approach Shakespeare as a god and not a man, Mr. Shaw criticizes. Without rejecting every un-god-like scrap of information about the bard's life as the "bardolaters" do, a picture, of a man can be pieced together, but he emerges "not a respectable man." Mr. Shaw says he believes that "Shakespeare died game, and, indeed, in a state of levity which would have been considered unbecoming in a bishop," referring to the tradition that Shakespeare's death was hastened by a drinking bout with Jonson and Drayton. Mr. Shaw concludes the introduction and intimates why "The Dark Lady" was written by saying "Why was I born with such contemporaries? Why is Shakespeare made ridiculous by such a posterity?" Undergraduates Offered Enlistment Break Undergraduate men who are leaving the University at the end of the semester without their degree still have a chance to enlist in the Army or the Air Force at a rank somewhat above that of recruit, according to SFC Jack C. Dodd, of the local recruiting station. The method by which this would be accomplished is known as a "grade determination," Sgt. Dodd explained. Men who so desire can ask for a grade determination in whatever branch of service they desire. A grade determination permits a man without a degree and yet with a substantially good education to The local office has already done this for some men. Sgt. Dodd said. ask some division of the armed services for permission to enlist at a non-commissioned level at which he could make use of his college training. Commissions are very scarce at the present time and the chances of a civilian without a sheepskin of getting one are very slim, due to the ample supply of officers being supplied by the ROTC programs. When a man asks for a grade determination, the local recruiting office sends his school record, letters of recommendation, and any other information which might be available to the headquarters of the particular branch of service in which he wants to enlist. They send back permission for that man to go in as corporal, for example. Or they may deny the request. "He's been doing this ever since he saw those Los Angeles Touring Busses." Sgt. Dodd urged men faced with this situation to ask for their grade determination shortly, in order that they may have it before they are out of school and subject to the draft.

Once there was a Girl who was the Prettiest Pigeon in Town. She stood out like a well-constructed Swan amid 'a Gaggle of Geese. So, during the Christmas holidays, Our Girl had a hatful of invitations. Eighteen just for the big New Year's Eve dance. Her Problem was which. Swish to account "Chick," she said, "she is a lesson in Practical Psychology. See these eighteen invitations? Only one is from a man of Poise, Personality and Perception. Masterful . . considerate . . enterprising . . subtle . sophisticated . . a man of Promise. Do you know which one it is?" She summoned her small sister, aged 10. "Jeeps no," said the woe Sister, "I don't." From the heap Our Heroine selected One Invitiation—on a yellow Blank. "Always," she said, "pick one that comes by Telegram." The Small Fry gulped. "Golly, can you tell all that from a Telegram?" The point to remember; when you're Lining Something Up for Yule or anytime send a Telegram. It flatters the Sender; gives your approach a Man-of-the-World touch that makes it Something Special. *Whenever you want to Do Better . . . on anything from a Date to a Job Interview . . . stake your claim via Western Union.* Big Sister closed one lustrous Eye.
