Tuesday, July 22, 1958 Summer Session Kansam
In "Summer and Smoke," the interiors of two adjoining homes—the minister's and the doctor's—are shown, as well as a statue on a pedestal in a public park, but, instead of the stage being cluttered, the tall iron grilles which designate the houses are fine in design against the sky and there
is a feeling of space around the angel on its pedestal.
The doctor and the minister, symbolized by the chart of human anatomy and the angel, and the minister's daughter and the doctor's son are all part of the theme of the soul and the body.
"Summer and Smoke," deals with elemental passions in the eternal conflict of sacred and the profane. Its scene is in Mississippi in the early 1900's and its plot revolves around the love of a "pure" minister's daughter for a hell-raising doctor's son.
There are some tragic-comic interludes, such as the meeting of the Literary Society to which Alma, the minister's daughter, invites John, the doctor's son, and Alma's fluttery, feeble minded mother who is always teasing her family for ice cream cones. —Gordon Clay

'Carousel' Now At Starlight; Stars Jan Clayton, Art Lund
Jan Clayton, the original Julie Jordan in the Broadway hit "Carousel," re-creates that role in the Starlight Theatre production of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical which began Monday.
In the role of Billy Bigelow, Art Lund takes the Starlight stage for the first time. Fresh from national acclaim for his leading role in "The Most Happy Fella" on Broadway and the national touring company, Mr. Lund will sing the beautiful "Soillo-ouy," when he dreams of his yet to be born child.
"Carousel" is regarded by many as Rodgers and Hammerstein's finest work. The popular tunes from the hit musical include such favorites as "If I Loved You," "You'll Never Walk Alone," "What's The Use Of Wond'rin," "June Is Bustin' Out All Over," "Mr. Snow," and the powerful "Soloilquy."
Loved by television viewers for four years as the mother on the Lassie show, Miss Clayton this month returned from a 2-weeks engagement in "Carousel" at the Brussels World's Fair.
William Olvis is Mr. Snow in the musical, with Joan Kibrig Bentley playing Julie's close friend, Carrie Pipperidge. Mike Kermoyan, who starred in "Tom Sawyer" as Injun Joe, again plays the heavy, taking the part of Jigger Craigin. Elizabeth Howell, who also played in "Tom Sawer," is Nettie Fowler, while Starlight veteran Joseph Macaulay plays the Starkeeper and choreographer Duncan Noble is the carnival dancer in the tender and moving story of an ill-fated love.
"Carousel" is the story of Julie and Billy, who fall in love on a summer evening in a New England coastal town. Billy is the barker for Mrs. Mullin's carousel, and Julie works in a factory. Their marriage is the start of the story in "Carousel," not the end, as is the case in most musicals. Two months after their marriage
Two months after their marriage
Billy is out of work and has begun to neglect Julie. It is generally known in the town that he has even gone so far as to hit her. Discouraged and disgusted with himself, and with his future prospects, Billy slides back into the companionship of the notorious Jigger Craigin. Despite Billy's attitude and treatment, Julie is still in love with him and tells him she is going to have a baby.
Two KU June graduates have been awarded Swiss Exchange Scholarships to the Institute of Technology of the University of Zurich.
Surprised and yet delighted by the news, he decides to make a last effort to win financial security for his family. Billy joins jigger in an attempt to rob the wealthy mill owner in the town. The crime is planned for a June evening when everyone will be away at a clambake.
ment of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Carousel" to the theatre. It played there in 1952 to the strongest crowds of that season. Following "Carousel" Pat Suzuki stars in the delightful "Wizard of Oz" for one week.
The robbery attempt is thwarted and Jigger escapes. Billy, disgraced and terrified for his wife and family, kills himself and dies in Julie's arms. Julie, strengthened by her cousin Nettie Fowler, carries on and has her child, a girl, Louise.
Billy, after his death, arranges with the heavenly officials to return to earth for one day in Louise's seventeenth year to see his daughter and bring her a star as a present. But, as has always been the case with one he loves, he blunders and exasperated, slaps Louise's hand.
When Louise tells her mother of the strange meeting and the slap she didn't feel, Julie, seeing the star, knows what has happened and she tells her daughter that "It's possible dear, for someone to hit you—hit you hard—and not hurt at all."
