Coming One-man Show Gets Advance Praise
"A marvelous evening" is the way one professor's wife describes a performance by Emlyn Williams.
Mrs. Neale J. Carman, wife of the chairman of the department of Romance languages, saw Mr. Williams in "A Boy Growing Up" while she was in London last fall.
"The Globe Theatre was packed, and while he was performing you could hear a pin drop. That is quite an accomplishment for a one-man show," she said.

Emlyn Williams will perform "A Eoy Growing Up" at 8:20 p.m. tomorrow in the University Theatre. His program is a dramatic interpretation of various sketches and stories of the late Dylan Thomas.
"Everyone in London liked it very much. We certainly plan to go Friday," Mrs. Carman said.
Mr. Williams is a playwright as well as an actor. He wrote "Night Must Fall," a study of a psychopathic murderer and played the lead on Broadway.
Mr. Williams has also appeared
in several films: "Another Man's Castle," with Bette Davis; "Iyanhoe," with Robert Taylor; "The Deep Blue Sea," with Vivian Leigh, and "I Accuse," with Jose Ferrer.
"A Boy Growing Up" was first presented at the Festival of Bath and later in New York, where critics called it "a smash hit."
Tickets for Friday's performance are available at the Kansas Union, the University Theatre box office, and Bell Music Store. Student LD cards are not good for the performance.
Seminar Set For Visitors
Foreign students who have concluded their study in the United States and who plan to return home before the end of 1959 are eligible to attend the Summer Crossroads Seminar in Colorado, June 13-20.
Clark Coan, assistant dean of men and foreign student adviser, said both graduate and undergraduate foreign students may fill out applications in 228 Strong before April 25.
The seminar, to be held at Colorado College in Colorado Springs, will include social events, such as visiting the Air Force Academy, and evaluation discussions of American problems.
Student housing will be furnished by families in Colorado Springs.
Geologists Spend Vacation Studying Rocks for Credit
Most students left classroom thoughts far behind when they paraded home for vacation last week. But three KU men, instead of taking a break, attended class every day and earned three hours of credit for doing it.
The men, all graduate students in geology, have only to write reports of their work in Field Statigraphy before they get the credit hours to show for vacation time.
Sidney Hochens, Atchison, James Peterson, Lawrence, and Paul Johnston, Hoisington, spent eight days studying Kansas rocks with their teacher, J. M. Jewett, associate professor of geology, and his assistant, Stanton M. Ball of the State Geological Survey.
Each morning before 7 a.m. the class was on its way. The men studied Lansing and Kansas City groups of rocks east of here as well as rocks to the south near Garnett.
The group returned to Lawrence each evening, so there was no
camping in the rainy weather which caught them out three times. The men were forced to take notes in cars at times, but this was not disconcerting to the geologists who are used to "nature's classrooms."
The reports, including graphic representations of 25 sections, will be due before the end of the semester.
Although the class actually started on the 21st, four days before vacation, the men did not miss classes for the field work. Other courses were cancelled because the teachers were attending the American Society of Petroleum Geologists meeting in Texas.
Last semester Prof. Jewett's class was scheduled on four weekends instead of during a vacation.

Italian Labor Ties Closer, Bayne Says
Italian employers have more responsibility for their workers than Americans do, E. A. Bayne, lecturer for the American Universities Field Staff, told members of the Industrial Sociology class yesterday.
"In Italy, the factory community is combined with the town community. This 'paternalism' may provide almost every conceivable fringe benefit for the employee and his family," Mr. Bayne said.
Mr. Bayne said the labor situation in Italy is paralleled in politics.
"The General Confederation of Italian Labor (GCIL) is associated with the leftist Communist-Socialist factions. Toward the right, the Union of Italian Labor (UIL) is associated with the Democratic Socialists, and the Confederation of Italian Syndicated Labor (CISL) is associated with the Christian Democrats," Mr. Bayne said.
Mr. Bayne said that a "unity of action" paet between the Communists and Socialists in Italy was undertaken at the end of World War II.
"This pact provides the strongest labor organization, but since there was fear of Communist dominance, the UIL was formed in 1947," Mr. Bayne said.
Mr. Bayne said that each spring the plants, dealing with the three political-labor svndicates, put up a slate of candidates to conduct the workers' relationships with the employer.
Mr. Bayne said that many Italian landlords want to get rid of tenants and industrialize. He said the leftest parties proposed an "agarian pact" to guarantee that peasant farmers could not be thrown off land without legal process.
"Although the CISL was in favor of this pact, the majority of the Christian Democrats opposed it," Mr. Bayne said.
Mr. Bayne said that strikes in Italy are frequently for political, not
economic reasons, as a result of the political orientation of labor.
"However, strikes are fairly rare and are not a serious menace now," Mr. Bayne said.
