Odds & Ends
'Muses' shows new look at life
Why Massachusetts Street? program on local history, Walkins Community Museum 1047 Massachusetts St., Nov. 14, 7:30 p.m. free.
An additional attraction has found a home in the collection of 25,000 art works in the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of Art. These works are the Nine Muses of Greek mythology.
The show, "Musing in museums," is a federally funded program under the directive of the U.S. Department of Education. The show is made up of three parts. Two parts are open during regular gallery hours: 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 11:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Sun-
First, visitors can conduct their self-guided tours aided by pamphlets placed throughout the museum. The pamphlets use maps and information to relate selected artworks to the Muses.
Then visitors can stop at the Muses' lounge on the main floor of the museum. Exhibits in the lounge include an 11-minute performance by the famous tragic actors and actresses $^{a}$
Shakespearean drama, such as Sarah Bernhardt and Laurence Olivier.
Eighteenth century engravings of tragic characters are also on display in the lounge.
THE THIRD part of the program is a series of presentations on each of the Muses. Melponne, the Muse of tragedy, has been featured in three programs since Oct. 15.
The theme of tragedy will continue in a Nov. 19 slide presentation and lecture, "The Production of Sophocles" by the production of Sophocles "Electra" by the University Theatre. The play will be performed at the
Programs features Eutereu, the Muse of music, will begin Jan. 14.
According to Brooking, the museum's study of the Muses is the only study of its kind. She said she came up with the idea for the study in December 1976.
"It is astonishing how little has been written about the Muses," Brooking said. "It makes it a challenge to put together a comprehensive study."
TWO MUSEUM employees work full time.

on the project. Saralyn Reece Hardy coordinates the presentations and Maria Lee is a teaching and research assistant. Faculty of Computer Science of the University work as consultants.
She used an example of a prism to explain the difference in world views. People today, she sand, see the surfaces of a prism in front of the Greeks saw the prism as an individual object.
"We tend to fragment reality, and the creeks saw things holistically, that are like a river."
Hardy described the interrelationship as "mystical." She said that those involved in the Muses' study were finding more evidence of overlapping in the Muses' disci-
Brooking said the interrelationship of the Muses shows the classical Greek view.
"The farther into it we get, the more exciting it becomes," she said.
'Candide' to open tonight
By EVIE LAZZARINO
Staff Reporter
Don't let the idea of watching a 17th century French satire score you off. If you enjoy it, don't expect to see color in an off-color innuendo, you will enjoy "Candide" opening tonight in Murphy Hall's gallery.
At dress rehearsal in the theatre, there are no backstage jitters. If they are jitters, they're taking place in the lobby, where there are 38 members of the cast change costumes.
The actors take clothes from a large rack in the lobby as they prepare to go down the main floor aisles dressed as Bulgarian soldiers, drunken peasants and guards.
The play, written by Voltaire, is about a young man, Candide, who lives in the German province of Westphalia with his stepuncle, the Baron.
Candide, portrayed by David Carey, Watertown, S.D., junior, lives happily and simply and enjoys with his step-cousins the wisdom of his bedside teacher, Pangloss, portrayed by Jim Lyall. Eudora graduate from Princeton, where that is 'the best of all possible worlds.'
BUT CANDIDATE's uncle sends Candide into exile after he practices with his luscious step-couin, Cunegode, played by Sean Murphy, Topeca senior, what their teacher calls the law of green manatee make and teach. The uncle finds the couple half-naked, embracing each other.
Candide sets off for Lisbon, Constantinople and ports unknown. On his travels he meets danger, eccentric characters and love.
The set, designed by Gregory Hill, instructor of theater, is appropriate to the theme of a journey through life. The set is like an old ship, with gangplains shooting toward the audience and nautical ropes and ladders hanging from the ceiling.
Geneva razi, associate professor of theater and University costumer, worked with Hill and students to design and create the more than 70 costumes worn in the show. Haeli wore a lightened needle matted pants, wire, paint, old jewelry and more than 600 yards of material.
Hill said, "I wanted to have fun with the period costumes. All the costumes are painted and very overstressed, to say the least. The look of the show is intentionally the
Haelh and Hill said they worked with the director of the play, Mary Kay Harris, instructor of theater, for more than a month on designs.
"The show is suggestive and quite a carnal," Harris said. "Nothing is sacred and throughout the play we see foibles of all parts of society."
There are some highly complex musical scenes. The ranges are high and the tempo is fast.
Several actors, including Murphy, Carey and Cathy Paddock, Shawnee freshman, who plays the Old Lady, seem to have no trouble with the difficult scenes.
The student orchestra is directed by George Lawner, professor of orchestra.
The informal and joyous atmosphere of
"Candle!" begins even before the overture, when Lawner, wearing a brocade jacket, walks across the back and descends into the galley to direct the orchestra.
The cast provides a consistently funny, musically high-calibur even in "Caravan."

Jayne Frager, Hiwaina senior, plays the role of a gluttonous Baroness in the French satirical play, "Candide." "Candide" will open tonight at the University Theatre. Chez Haehi, associate professor of theater, is the University costumer who has helped design the more than 70 costumes worn in the play.
