Audiences Enjoy Two Guild Plays Despite Handicap
Local Difficulty With Union Makes Players Go On Without Using Scenery
SIX PAGES
By Stanley Packard
Whether it was due to the excellence of the play, the reputation of the Theater Guild players, or to the low matinee price, the fact remains that she will be missed. The theater yesterday afternoon at the performance of "The Doctor's Dilemma," a clever satire on the modi profession by George Berner Schaar.
The piece proved "educational" from several standpoints. Playgrounders from the Guild in producing the best type of plays. Those who knew Swaun only for his keen intellect and ability, for his problems were convinced that he also knows his humor and were made to realize just what the term "Sbaivan" means.
The audience also saw evidence of the struggle between the stage hands union and University authorities, in the 1980s. The Guild productions instead of their own. And, managers of the Fraser theater discovered how trying it can be to have 3:33 classes traps a student during a matinee. But, to the play.

The evening performance of the Guild Reporter Company was a creditable presentation of Sydney Howe Hawkins, who has been invited to the Kannembe River country, Maine. "Ned McCabb's Daughter." The two brothers Bidden and Richard Stevenson.
Stevenson, who recently finished playing the lead in "Hot Bod," a play which closed two weeks ago in New York, said that he did not "White Cargo" for two years on Broadway, and although handicapped by the fact that he had just stepped into the parts he played yesterday, he performed in such a manner as to contribute.
The and part of the plays which were shown yesterday was the scenery, the same brown drapes the dramatic department uses to decorate the stage. This was in no way the fault of the Theater Guild Company, but was due to the trouble existing between the stage hands union and the University of New York, an agreement existing between all union hands, the men traveling with the company would not work yesterday. The manager of the company felt that he could not allow people and acquainted with the scenery to handle

Bal Jeffrey Has Time Filled With Coaching Job and Law Studies
Despite Heavy Schedule He Has Turned Out a Strong Cage Fires of Pilot
Five at Baker
Balfour Jeffery, T21, is finding the true meaning of manning every minute of play in his basketball coach at Baker University. Resides having the responsibility of the Baker team on his shoulder, he has full time work in the law school.
"I thought I knew something about taking good use of my time while I was taking regular college work and asking part in a few activities, but I never did," he said recently. "I 'o learning now that responsibility is like."
"Usually I drive over to Balbain immediately after lunch, but two days a week I have afternoon classes so that makes me late on those days. It is usually when I drive over. While the snow was too for driving, I staged over there."
Safeyre's team has won five of the seven games, it has played so far. Since few of the men are veterans, he blinks this is a good record.
"Last fall if someone had told me that I'd be coaching a basketball team this winter, I'd have told him he was crazy. I love the game though, and coach is next to playing. It was amazing," said of Doctor Aliet that I got his job."
"Basketball is taking most of my thoughts, whether I'm sleeping or awake. I've found that to build up my memory, I had to think off the floor than on. I didn't know any of the men till I met them on the practice floor so I have the problem of getting to know them by seeing each of their individual problems.
Although it requires great concentration while he is studying, Bal is keeping up with his law studies. He says he doesn't even have time to go to basketball school. But he is not thinking about basketball is must be thinking about school work.
