LEN S. OTIS”^Black Narcissus^ CensoredBy Chicago * Purity^ Board“Russia has the ^atomic secretand we would be foolish to as¬sume that she is not makingatomic bombs.”That is the conclusion reachedby Chancellor Robert M. Hutchinsin an article for the Decemberissue of the American magazinewhich appears on the newsstandstoday.Hutchins bases his conclusionson these facts:1. Knowledge of atoms datesback to* Democritus, who lived 400years before Christ; and the prop¬erties of atomic energy were in¬ternationally known before WorldWar II.2. Publication of the Smyth re¬port made it possible for any in¬terested country to read about“four specific ways in which ato-Puc fission could be accomplished.”3. Russia and all Europeancountries have atomic scientistscapable of working out the fewremaining details of production.As there is no secret, so there|s no defense, Hutchins points out.‘ All theory of defense Is based upon absorption, the amount ofpunishnient a target can absorbbefore it capitulates. No knowntarget can absorb the punishmentthe bomb can administer.”The only solution to the dilem¬ma, Hutchins says, is “the estab¬lishment of international moral¬ity.” If that solution is reached,peaceful atomic energy couldmake a Utopia out of our world.“These are not dreams,” Hutch¬ins concludes in referring topeacefifl applications of atomicenergy. “These are simple truths.”“So today we stand at the forkof the road.“To the right lies peace, pro¬ductivity beyond all imagination,ease of living beyond our bright¬est dreams.“To the left lies war and theeventual end of all life on earth.“For the first time since crea¬tion, we truly hold in our handsthe power to shape our owm des¬tiny, to. choose our own fate“We must make our choice with¬in five years.*' ‘ .

By MILTON MOSKOWITZWhen “Black Narcissus,” anEnglish film starring DeborahKerr, opens in Chicago in the nearfuture, it will be a watered-downversion of the picture which hasbeen showing in New York andother movie houses throughout thenation during the past six months.The MAROON exclusively ob¬tained this information Saturdayas the result of an investigationinstigated by a letter from DanielBell, social science instructor inthe College.Bell wrote to the MAROON lastweek, urging the paper to protestthe banning of the picture by theChicago Board of Censors. He re¬ported that Publishers Weekly hadcarried a story which said that thefilm had been banned because of“alleged immorality and allegedlyimproper portrayal of Anglicanrulers.”Capt. Lynn, head of the boardof censors, was interviewed by theMAROON Saturday, and he claim¬ed that the picture never had beenofficially banned, but was merelyunder review. He intimated that itwould open in the city’s theaterswithin a week or two.This was confirmed in anotherinterview with Elie Fink, the law¬yer who has been handling the case for the producers of “Black Nar¬cissus.” However, Fink revealedthat the picture only received ap¬proval from the board after cer¬tain deletions had been made.The film, which has receivedhigh praise from Time and theNew York movie critics, deals withthe attempt by the Anglicanchurch to set up a convent in abackward region of the Himalay-ans, where life is still in a primi¬tive stage. The nuns find it diffi¬cult to readjust the people and alsodiscover the atmosphere of thearea to be affecting themselves andundermining their faith. Bellpointed out in his letter that whilethe picture may “deal in part withthe frailty of human beings, thereis little ‘immoral’ in the movie.”Fink told the MAROON thatcertain allegedly frivolous remarksby the nuns had to be removed, a?well as some scenes in which thenuns are shown admiring civiliahdress.Although he said that this ac¬tion by the Board of Censors indi¬cates strong Catholic pressureFink said that the board’s recordin general has been good. He citedthe case of “The Outlaw,” whichhad trouble getting approved toNew York but not in Chicago.

Thevocal line broke evei-y time thesound “ah” or “aw” occurredabove middle c, and the resultingbreak was accompanied by verynoticeable flatness in his int-ona-tion.The slow’ tempi which Hess tookwere accompanied at the'* sametime by a dreary, undifferentiatedemotion throughout the cycle.Admittedly, there are few inter¬pretative problems as difficult assensing the subtle differentiationsof emotion in the 24 songs of thecycle. But without these differ¬entiations the songs become dulland sag on endlessly for two hours.Whether Hess didn’t .sense theseemotional differences or whetherhe sensed them but was unableto project them is a question wecannot decide. The end result is the same in both instances, andit was no accident that the sizeof the audience diminished no,ticeably after the intermission.Interpretatively there are somegood things to be said for thesinger, even if they were com.pletely overshadowed by moreobvious considerations. For ex¬ample, he has taken the tioubleto find out just exactlv how fiace<-notes in the Schubert songs areto be done. Furthermore he re¬frained from overdramatizinp thecycle, which many well-knownsingers are inclined to do.But all this mattered only tothe most objective listener, to theone who could keep awake.Celebrate BirthOf Atomic AgeThe fifth anniversary of thebirth of the atomic age, on Dt'^em-ber 2, 1942 will be observed bythe University of Chicago todaywith two events honoring the sci¬entists who achieved the first .self-sustained chain reacting pile thatmade possible the controlled re¬lease of nuclear energy.At 3 p.m. a bronze plaque mark¬ing the sit<e of the historic experi¬ment in a squash-racquets couitunder the west stand of StaggField will be unveiled.HARRIS TONIGHT AT 8:40MiiHiife Tomofrow. 2:40JOHN C.

All three letters illustrate'that there is hardly any otherbasis for attacking something asnatural as the dedication of oneday a year to the students whofell in the fight against fascism;support of the International Unionof Students, pledged to preventits rebirth; and coc^eration withstudents of the world to build thepeace.Mr. LaBudde will forgive me ifI take issue with the statementthat the problems of the lUS areof a “semantic nature,” the func¬tion of the lUS is not to debatethe merits of the countries ofEastern'Europe. lUS is simply therepresentative organization of allstudents, in all countries, as.sem-bled to adopt and carry, out aprogram, which, the overwhelm¬ing majority of them felt, repre¬sented their common aspirations.This program centers around thefollowing:1) The right of students tofreely elect their own representa¬tives to participate in the life oftheir country and in all mattersthat affect them, to organize intoorganizations of their owm choos¬ing, and to express their opinionsin their publications.2) The abhorrence of war, inwhich we students would be thefirst fighters, and which wouldbring with it the renewal of suchinciaents as the massacre whichISD commemorates; and the faiththat there are no proolems whichcannot be solved by peacefulmethods.3) Constant increase in educa¬tional opportunities everywhere,and therefore the abolition of allracial, national, religious,- politi¬cal, or financial barriers to edu¬cation.4) Material and moral assist¬ance to students whenever neces-sai*y to achieve these basic aspira¬tions, whether it be gathering soapfor Egyptian students threatened by cholera, or organizing rallies insupport of Chinese students op¬pressed by Chiang Kai-Shek.Both the students of EasternEurope and we (at least so far,despite the efforts of the Thomas-Rankin Committee) can subscribeto the program of lUS. It simplymeans willingness to work to¬gether on a minimum, freelyagr^ upon by representativesduly elected by their respectivestudent bodies; some cf them areundoubtedly communists, whilemany others are bitterly anti¬communists; if some people sug¬gest exclusion of duly elected rep¬resentatives because of their po¬litical views or their “semantics”don’t happen to check with theirown, their confidence in thedemocratic process must indeed besmall. Bea Kass I want to say it’s a magnificentUniversity; the students have agrand, friendly spirit—and they’rewide awake, intellectually inclined,brace and open-minded.Henry S. WaldmanLAUDS UNIVERSITYI write you as a subscriber tothe Maroon and the father of adaughter at Poster House at U. ofC. Firstly, I like the Maroon. It’sa darn good paper. Secondly, Ijust came back East from a fourday visit to my daughter at thecampus of U. of C. I looked theplace over from t<^ to bottom. ATTACK KELLER PLAYLast Friday, Saturday, and Sun¬day night the AETA (for your in¬formation, the American Educa¬tional Theatre Association), Chi¬cago branch, in keeping with itstheory of variety, presented thosewho had nothing better to do withthe manuscript play. DisplacedPerson, which the AETA (Chicagobranch, at least) was pleased torefer to as “strategic” in buildinga university theatre. They mightwell have been justified, in thiscase, in sacrificing variety forsomething more substantial; theonly strategy I found connectedwith this production was the get¬ting of an audience.Where Mr. Keller mastered thecomplicated art of basic English,whether in occupied CJermany, oron the U.C.L.A. campus, is nothere impiortant, it is only to benoted that he has carried it to apoint of refinement. His charactershave four stock phrases: “I know,’’“I don’t know,” “I’m sorry,” andvarious renditions of “goddamn”(rising, however, in crucial mo¬ ments to a much greater degreeof profanity).Mr. Keller apparently intendedto give a straight-forward, no-punches-pulled, account of thingsas he supposes them, but he has,instead, carried anti-sentimental¬ity to the point of nauseating, ado¬lescent puling. He does present theprettiest proposal I have comeacross in quite some time: his pro¬gressive woman asks for her be¬loved’s hand in the tone of “Willyou please pass the salt,” and he,distrustful as he is of all thingstender, is so touched by this appealthat he is not capable of refusing.The one wise man in the play(Mr. Keller here attempted a con¬cession to convention) is, of course,an American—and here I concedea stroke of originality. This per¬son is quite unusual for an Amer¬ican, he knows enough to knowthat he knows nothing. Not onlydoes he not know anything, hegoes to great lengths and pains toprove it—showing that he is agood American.'This is not to be taken in anyway as a diatribe against the cast,the expiring young actresses andactors. They did as well as mightbe expected with what they hadto work with, so far as I knowraising their voices at the righttime, and saying “I know,” or “Idon’t know,” or “goddamn” strict¬ly as directed.

BarnettMANAGING EDITORS;Ed EngbergFritz HeimannASSOCIATE BUSINESSMANAGER;Melvin LackeyIn short, aside from a few feebledigs at education and learniug,this play exhibits nothing but Mr!Keller’s state of confusion andcontact with some theatrical de¬vices which he has misapprehend¬ed, an amazing credulity on thepart of the cast and those incharge of production, and an un¬fortunately encouraging kindnesson the part of the audience. Theone great misfortune here was,that Mr. did not “displace” theplay, instead of the persons.C.
