Nixon dedicates schoolLast Monday evening, faculty members and their guests gathered in the auditorium ofthe new law school to witness Vice President of the United States Richard M. Nixon delivera speech on the occasion of the dedication of the new buildings.Nixon related Chairman Khrushchev’s recent visit to this country in terms of what signifi¬cance it held for the dedication of the law school. Nixon also called for an intelligent anddedicated block of American youth to meet the competition of nations.Chancellor Lawrence A. Kimp-ton introduced the Vice-President lenge.

Allthese things and various other fea¬tures of the centennial—the manymen who will participate, the or¬ganization and content of theproblems under discussion andthe amalgamation of new knowl¬ edge that will be included, willenable the centennial to contrib¬ute to knowledge of evolution.Another revolutionary qualityof the centennial Tax predictedwill be lhat “For the first timeevolution will be taken out of thecategory of ‘theory/ In scienceeverything is considered theory.But, for example, in the commonparlance the so-called ‘Copernicanhypothesis’ is now turned a fact.Scientists have long accepted evo¬lution as a fact in the same waythey accept the idea that the earthgoes around the sun. Because ofthe centennial, evolution may nolonger be termed ‘the theory ofevolution’ but accepted as a factby the average layman.”“Knowledgeable people do notconsider that there is any alterna¬tive to evolution,” continued Tax.One intention of the centennial isto change the public attitude to¬ward evolution.

They in¬clude faculty from 16 fields bfthe University, several visitingprofessors, and graduate studentsfrom a group of diverse fields.The centennial will run Novem¬ber 23 through 28.

The dead¬line for registration is October 15.In each of the 40 odd papersprepared for the centennial thesub-seminars assigned to eachtopic will consider what is rele¬vant to their particular topic, Huxley is serving for this quar¬ter as a member of the Universityfaculty. He is here in conjunctionwith the forthcoming Darwincentennial. In addition to deliver¬ing the Convocation addresswhich will climax the centennialcelebration, Sir Julian will parti¬cipate in one of the five paneldiscussions and will assist in thepreparation of abstracts of all thespecial papers being written forthe November meeting.The quiet Englishman ex¬pressed an expectation that muchwould come from the four daysof discussion and conference.“Many extremely important ques¬ tions are being considered. Cer¬tainly many of the questions weare asking ourselves and will beasking at the panel discussionsare not susceptible to experimen¬tation.“It is a popular fallacy thatscientific studies must be suscep¬tible to experimentation. Yet as¬tronomers who can't experimentwith stars know much about them.We biologists have observed theramifications of the fact of evolu¬tion, for it is no longer a theoryof evolution but a fact, we havegone to fossils, gone to geology,gone to the mind.”Huxley sees the possibility cfseveral frightening evolutionarypossibilities, most particularly theproblem of expanding population.“It is only recently, “he pointedout, “that the annual populationincrease has reached one per cent.This is a fantastically high figure.My colleague Harrison Brown hascompared the situation 1o aswarm of maggots surroundingthe carcus of a dead cow, the onlyfallacy I see in this simile is thatthe maggots didn’t kill the cowwhile our huge population mightvery well kill the earth.”Huxley and his wife will livein the Quadrangle club while heis on campus.

SHU IlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllOctober 9. 1959 • CHICAGO MAROOM • iIs the bookstore herefor profit or for students?One of the few services offered by the UniversityBookstore is its extensive charge account system.The system is simple and clear. A student who de¬sires a charge account simply asks for one, creditratings are checked, invariably the account is estab¬lished, and bills are sent out monthly. It is con¬venient, and as it works, quite efficient. However,as is the case with most simple systems, there areserious flaws. —The service is provided free. There is no chargeapplied against the 1,000 people who utilize Book¬store acocunts. But the accounts do cost money.One Bookstore employee works on billing full time,another works half time. This, plus the amount oftime spent by clerks in filling out charge formsputs the annual cost of operation in the neighbor¬hood of five thousand dollars.Who pays for this money? Nobody. In this casenobody is everybody and everybody is every singleregular user of the Bookstore, the 7000 who don’thave charge accounts and the 1000 who do. This isfive thousand dollars which won’t go into the gen¬eral fund, this is five thousand dollars which won’tbe returned to students in terms of book discounts,this is five thousand dollars which goes to maintain»n already misused system. And the charge account system is misused. Billsare not itemized and innumerable students manageto send home to Daddy a well-padded book bill.One student a few years back got most of- hisspending money by selling his roommate cigaretteshe bought on his charge account. Somehow hemanaged to convince his parents that his book¬store bill for books really did come to $400.What can be done about the current System?The bookstore is not going to start charging forthis service, it is not going to turn $500 more overto the general fund next year-where it could dosome good, nor is the bookstore about to recon¬sider its policy on discounts. This problem canscarcely be attacked positively.We suggest, instead, that every student on cam¬pus who does not currently have a Bookstorecharge account, go and get one this afternoon.Since we are all paying for the service, we mightas well all be utilizing it. And if the expenses ofoperating the system quadruple over night, well,the Bookstore might do something.Next week the Maroon will take up the questionof theft from the Bookstore, how it is done, andwhat can be done about it. FASTER, FASTER!College enrollment continues to spiral upward. The need formore classrooms and more teachers grows more desperate daily.But classrooms, alike, do not spring up like mushrooms —norteachers like May flies. So what must we do while we build moreclassrooms and train more teachers? We most get better use outof the classrooms and teachers we now have. That’s what wemust do.This column, normally a vehicle of good-humored foolery,will today forsake laughter to examine the crisis in highereducation.

Kimpton had his forty-ninth birthday. This eventwas celebrated by bagpipes, six foot Tibetian trumpet and the very strange missive writtenin the form of a poem printed on this page. As for the poem, it arrived on a dirty sheet ofpaper, we don’t understand it, we assume that the content is complimentary and we aredesperate for letters to the edi-tors.In any case we hope the inten¬tion of this letter is compliment¬ary, for then we can concur. Veryfew students have the opportunityto meet the Chancellor, evenfewer get to know him well. Thisis unfortunate, for the Chancel¬lor is a man well worth knowing. Kimpton became chancellor ofthis university at an unfortunatetime. Prejudiced against him fromthe start, the student body wasslow to recognize the real validityof the man's ideas. Somehow thefact that Kimpton was Hutchin’sown choice as successor got lostin the shuffle. Gradually Kimpton’s inlegrity,honesty and sensibility have wonover the students of the campus.He has been notably successfulin most of his major endeavors.Whatever value the Maroon's con¬gratulations have, we gladly give.We, too, think he “swings and allhis side men swing, way out.”Eby letter enumeratesshortcomings of NixonI went to the meeting with Vice-President Nixon in Mandell Hallfully determined to ask him sev¬eral questions; namely did he be¬lieve that Jerry Voorhis was aCommunist when he defeated himfor Congress in 1946? Was he Voorhis’ voting record on 26 billswas Communist, influenced? And,did he know, and if so, what didhe do about the phone calls madeto voters the night before theelection inferring that Jerry Voor¬his was a Communist and a sub-a party to the charge that Mr. versive?Asks for clear symbolsThe proudest and noblestrailing which a man can fol¬low is that of the scholar.Physicist or philosopher,mathematician or musicolo¬gist, the untrammeled flightsof his imagination are allied withthe discipline of his academictraining and the voice of his ex¬perience in the highest of all ad¬ventures — the advancement ofknowledge. Yet despite the awe¬some bulk of the scientist’s ap¬paratus or the humanist’s library,the most important part of thisadventure takes place within themind, where it escapes completelythe notice of the undiscerning.The outward signs of this tri¬umphant progress are few, andrightly so; the man who spendshis life doing things which no onehas ever done before has littlepsychological need to cry out forthe attention of the public. Thetrue scholar is usually a modestman who leads a quiet life andeschews the spectacular for itsown sake.The central symbol of the pro¬cession is the academic gown. Asimpractical as it may be for pur¬poses of warmth and coveringnakedness, it conveys most effec¬tively the dignity of the scholar’scalling. At the same time, theuniversality of knowledge is re¬flected in the vivid reds, yellows,greens and blues of the gownsof universities all over the world.In the light of this, it is indeeda deploiable tiling that all of theuniversities in America haveagreed upon a single hue for theiracademic gowns. In contrast to the variegated colors in whichtheir football teams and march¬ing bands are decked, their bache¬lor’s, masters, and doctors areshrouded in deep, dull drab black.The academic procession — thevery symbol of Academe — isdrab. Except for a scattering offaculty members with Europeandegrees, the scholars express thesoarings of their souls in the samecolor with which they expresstheir respect for the dead.Clearly, a change is needed. Butone practical consideration standsin the way of such a change. Alarge majority of the students atany convocation have rented theirgowns, and of the rental servicehad to maintain a separate set ofgowns for each university in thevicinity, the rental cost would beprohibitive. But a compromise ispossible. Of those students re¬ceiving their doctorate, a largeproportion purchase gowns whichthey can use from time *to timefor the rest of their lives. Cer¬tainly maroon gowns would costno more than black ones.Harvard university has alreadyset a precedent by making thewearing of crimson gowns andhoods optional with the wearer.Yale has followed with blue. Theresponse to the new regulations,as evidenced by the number ofcolored gcfwris at last June’s com¬mencements, was enthusiastic.For the edification of the worldas well as for our own satisfac¬tion, let us state in clear symbolswhere we stand. Let us exalt themaroon doctoral gown above themaroon C-blanket!Acodemicus Influenced by the temper of themeeting and my own (temporary,I hope) lack of moral courage, Ikept silent. Since then, I havebeen exceedingly troubled becauseI am convinced that Richard Nix¬on countenanced, if not by avowalthen by his silence, statements heknew to be untrue. His was thelie of silence. An untruth which tome is the worst of lies because itis more difficult to refute.Furthermore, it is my conten¬tion that he knew what was hap¬pening and sacrificed Mr. Voor¬his’ reputation and Richard Nix¬on’s integrity to his ambition andhe has never repudiated his ac¬tions except to say, “I wasyounger then.”Frankly, not to admit to beinga party to a lie seems to me to bemorally reprehensible.Another example of Mr. Nixon’spolitical opportunism is lesscloudy. He supported the lateSenator McCarthy; he went toWisconsin and spoke for him inthe last election campaign. Whenthe political winds veered, Rich¬ard Nixon climbed off the Mc¬Carthy bandwagon. Now he is inthe process'of attempting to winback the votes he lost by alienat¬ing the fair-minded.It is because he did such a goodjob here at the University that Iam concerned. The public, even aUniversity of Chicago public, hasa short memory. Richard Nixoncertainly put on an excellent ex¬hibition. He was informed, objec¬tive and poised, but these qualitiesare not enough for me. I do notcare for men who climb to powerover a better man’s reputation.After all, I respect Jerry Voor¬his who went to defeat refusingto answer to what he knew wasuntrue. Today, Jerry Voorhis re¬mains a man of greater integrity,ability and character than theman who defeated him.He can be proud in defeat Iwish sometimes our memorieswere not so short.

He spoke: “Th^eare the thus-far damned whofailed to advance register. Theangel beyond recording the num¬bers is listing the summoned.

His reply: “This is auto¬mation.” And I wondered.‘This is the First Station.” saidmy guide as we approached adesk marked “Course cards.”There I found a mother sucklingnewborn twins.

He sang:Nibble at natureTitmouse witnessAnd test it with litmus.C.o please yourselfBut number me no numbers:Nature’s belly laughEchoes the seismograph. And we moved on, and I wonderedthe more.The Third Station brought us toa curious scene: two physics stu¬dents being threatened with los¬ing their indulgenceships for try¬ing to seduce a UNIVAC. A the¬ologian was proclaiming to theInquisitiar that the Bible was allnumerology anyway and the fu¬ture lay in Russian roulette, sono real harm had been done.“They may never get out thatway,” I thought, as we movedalong.At Station Four I approacheda man punching numbers on amachine. I spoke: “Are you notworried by all this reduction tonumbers? I fear the world maycave-in any minute.” He raisedhollow eyes: “Cave-in any min¬ute? Foo! Don’t worry about it.Look.

Foo! Foo- Foooo!”And I feared the more as wemoved on.The Fifth Station brought meto three PhD students petitioningtheir keeper to be let out of theorthogenic school to return totheir proper labors. These poorsouls had written 345679 — thenumber of the orthogenic school— on their IBM cards, instead of345678 — the number of the bio¬chemistry department. My guidewas dubious as to their prospectsof release since the IBM machine(modeled after the machine inKafka’s Penal Colony) refused tocorrect mistakes. And I left themmuch Maddened.At the sound of running feetabove the Sixth Station I lookedup. “A track star,” my guide said.“An athlete,” I cried, “what doyou think of this new registrationsystem?” “It’s like the pari-mu¬tuels,” he answered, “a fixed per¬For Your EatingEnjoyment Featuring ...Half Milk-FedFried ChickenINDIVIDUALLY PAN-FRIED OR BROILEDTO A GOLDEN BROWN PERFECTIONThis Includes a Complete DinnerFrom Relish Tray to Dessert*1.55Alexander'sRestaurant1137 E. 63rd centage of losers win, a fixed per¬centage of losers lose.

Consisting of anucleus of two fraternity men andi wo C-group girls, the size of thegroup grew slowly during thehour they were at the scene.Initially parading on the Westside of University avenue, theywere ordered' to the other side ofthe street by Chicago police.

Paper explains 'Origin'by David IngleA century ago Charles Darwin presented his important insights into the hidden designwithin nature’s richly decorated picture puzzle. His germinal theory of “natural selection”as the impersonal artificer of living forms continues to stimulate biologists to guess at theorigin of each and every feature of life as we know it.Of the many papers submitted to the Darwin Centennial Program this fall, that of HansGaffron, Professor of Biochemistry at this University, touches the most basic problems in- liV. — — —%nj understanding the creation cing systems. His paper, “The Ori-gin of Life” summarizes the workand thought of modern scientiststoward a coherent theory of bio-poesis. The issue has been takenfrom the hands of the philosopherand theologian and submitted tothe eager minds of biologists andchemists who offer materialisticexplanations in the tradition oftheir disciplines.Essentially, the approach toevolutionary mechanisms hasbeen reductionist: an attempt tounderstand the behavior of anysystem by analysis of the eleSir Isaac Nezvton is struckby another great ideal ments underlying changes in or¬ganization of the whole system.One explains, for instance, themutability of species through con¬sideration of individual potentialfor change and adaptation. We tryto understand the development ofthe individual in terms of built-ingenetic mechanisms and their ex¬pression in a given environment.Finally, we hope to envision theworkings of such self-duplicatingmaterials, within the nucleus ofthe cell, as descended from non¬living macromoleeular systems inour earth’s primieval seas.Professor Gaffron guides hisreaders along the theoretical path¬way of plausible and possible re¬actions leading towards the emer¬gence of life. He carefully con¬siders the gaps in man’s informa¬tion and then points out how theymight be bridged with the aid ofindirect evidence drawn fromsome laboratory artifacts. A clas¬sic example of artificial simula¬tion of molecular evolution oc¬curred when Miller and Urey, inthe department of Chemistry atthis university, produced severalamino-acids — the ‘ ‘ b u i 1 d i n gblocks” of proteins—by the irradi¬ation of a “soup” of water, hydro¬gen, ammonia and methane byultraviolet light.From experiments performedelsewhere it has been concludedthat such simple organic sub¬stances can polymerize to formlong chains as large as the major¬ity of naturally-occurring proteinmolecules. Still other researchesshow that these organic acids cancondense into ring-structures re¬lated to natural compounds withimportant catalytic properties.For instance, chlorophyll of plantsis essential to evolution of higherforms as we know them, andhemoglobin in blood of verte¬brates is essential to respiration.Other related substances are in¬volved in essential enzymatic ac¬tivities basic to most living things.Up to this point in the evolutionof life’s precursors, the partisansof the “stir, irradiate, and wait”school are secure. Professor Gaf¬fron emphasizes the subtlities ofconception and the deficiencies ofexperimental information relative to understanding the next impor¬tant step.How can we understand the for¬mation of highly, specific proteinstructures which govern reactionrates and give to the living cel] astructural and functional order?The paradox is that such highh-ordered systems require the “ma¬chinery” in the cell for their ownsynthesis. How then can we ex¬tract order from the organic soupof potentially useful compoundswithout imposing this order fromthe outside, in the manner of thetheologian?Professor Gaffron states thatwe do not know the text of lifewell enough to exclude the operations of mechanical principleswithout any external design. Oncewe attain ultimate insight intouniversal life - processes we maysee directly the path of their evolution. We may even now understand in a general way that a degree of order in a homogeneousenvironment may impose a morecomplex order upon the unordered surrounding substances.Even at present we have a clueto the “missing link” between theopen and closed systems in theprimieval sea. The nucleotidespiral chains which constitute thestuff of the genes can arise independently of an intact system. Inone set of experiments dry aminoacids were melted together toform polypeptides. In other experiments polypeptides of a certain length showed a tendency tocoil into an alpha-helix (bedspringshape).The genetic material, DNA, hasa similar alpha-helix shape andthis suggests analagous originsand functions of the natural andsynthetic substances. For instance, such an artifact composedof coiled peptides chains and nucleic acids might possess justthose catalytic properties necessary to govern elementary formsof metabolism in a semi - closedsystem.One of nature’s tricks to aidsurvival of a reaction system is“reflexive catalysis,” where theproducts of a reaction stimulatethe agent which governs the rateof the reaction, itself.Fifty-Seventh at Kenwood sZ/fliT unusual food (DELIGHTFUL (ATMOSPHERE lPOPULAR'ntiiiiittit'itiitiiiiiiiitiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii;SERVICE 74eMAX BROOKCOMPANYis our businessWe oim to please.Your confidence in usmeans we will have theprivilege of serving youmany times.

They shouldn’t puttwo people in a room like that.They probably shouldn’t put oneperson in a room like that.” Vargadid say that the food was muchbetter than he expected, and thattie liked all the "noise and activityin the house.”Elaine Adler, 17, of West house,called registration “a big mess”and an example of "gross ineffi¬ciency.” As for her room, Elainesaid “It would be great for aprison cell, but at least it’s clean.”She said the food was "great,”hut went on to say that she "aver¬aged about one meal a day.”Roberta Reeder, 17, of West,Donna Marie Smith, 18, of North,and Don McAfee, 18, of East, allthought that registration w a scomplicated and tiring. Perhapsthe best example of registrationdifficulty is Eliot Landau, 17, ofEast. Eliot swears it took 15 hoursand 45 minutes for him to be prop¬erly registered. ..On the other hand. Gary Green¬berg, 17, of Salisbury, called “reg¬istration “easy and efficient.” Hewas not so anxious to praise hishouse, which he described as "old,dark, dank, and crowded.” Garythought the food had been “pret¬ty good so far,” and hoped "thecold franks for lunch wore notwarnings of things to eome.”Most of the students had notrouble becoming acquainted with the campus, and said they hadfound their way around easily.However, this was not the casewith Bill Shaw, 17, of Salisbury.Said Bill, “I get lost every time Ileave the dorm. Today, after twen¬ty minutes, I wound up in somehospital.”Dale Lang, 17, of North saidher room was of "adequate size,”but stated that she “didn’t like theblankets because they were muchtoo dusty.” When asked about the.food, Dale replied: "I ,don’t likeit—I think it s insipid. I guess it’sedible, though.”Taking an even surer tack wasPearl Bloom, 17, of North house,who exclaimed, "Food1 I’ve eatenone meal in three days.”Many of the students interviewdexpressed their appreciation ofthe University’s intellectual at¬mosphere. Roberta Reeder saidthe people here were more "con¬servative” than she had imagined,but she was delighted with the“stimulating atmosphere.”The feelings of most of themembers of the entering classwere expressed by Chuck Vernoff,.17, of Salisbury. “In high school,three or four of us would lookaround and say, ‘We are aware,and they are not.’ At the Univer¬sity, everyone seems to be aware.”Eye ExaminationsVisual TrainingDr. Kurt Rosenbaumoptometrist1132 E. 55th StreetHYde Park 3-8372hyde pork's first cofeespressoThe CollegeLAUNDERETTE1449 Eeet 57H» St.MU 4-9236 open daily till 1open weekends till 21369 East 57th Street4THREE PIZZA'S FORTHE PRICE OF TWO 1Free MJ.C, DeliveryTerry ’s1518 E. 63rd Ml 3-4045AwwwwvwwwwMidwest Army StoreCONTINENTAL IVY PANTS fIn Solid Colors or Ivy Stripe /$/ Sells for $4.99 — With Presentation of This Ad {*2.99This offer exclusive to University to acquaint you withour new store at1018 E. 63rd Best WishesBarbara Sue MODEL CAMERALeiea, Bo lexAuthorized Dealer1342 E. 55th HY 3-92591MSA Discount FOR INFORMATION ABOUTA VARIABLE ANNUITYSEER.

The placement, however,has changed m use and purpose.Knox Hill, University examinerexplained that the new place¬ments could have two purposes—giving credit for courses m thegeneral education sequences of¬fered, and in assisting the Collegestaffs to outline those specificparts of the general courses of¬fered which a given studentshould take.“The status of the second func¬tion is more nearly clear,” Hilladded. “Undergraduates will berequired to take no more thantwo years of general education,or in the new terminologyv 24units. In a given field — socialsciences, for example—there maybe more than 6 units offered.Chiefly by the students’ perform¬ance on the placements the Socstaff will determine which 6 orfewer he should be required totake.”“The status of the accredida-tion tests is as yet uncertain,”Hill said. “They will probably notbe given at the same time as theplacements, but will be invita¬tional to students who have shownmore than usual knowledge in certain fields. The grades usedwill probably be only “P” (pass!or “F” (fail). Hill predicts thatfailing marks on accredidationtests will probably not be put ona student's permanent record.Only biological and social sci¬ences will offer accredidationtests this year. The policy of otherstaff is as yet undetermined.Tests will probably be given laterin the year. Because credit will begiven on the basis of a single testalone. Hill stated that the testswould almost certainly be moredifficult and perhaps longer thanthe placements. Special readingof a more extensive nature thanthat used on the placements isalso a possibility.“The comprehensive will haveto be substantially changed be¬cause of the new unit system.”Hill added. “However, the College faculty does not intend to aban¬don the idea completely. Thereis much value in testing over alonger period of time than asingle quarter. Tests covering twoyears of general work are alsobeing considered.”Because a student may placeout of single units in a three unitsequence, comprehensives mayhave to be constructed coveringeach permutation of pairs of unitsin a sequence. (Out of an A, B,C sequence for example, compscould cover A, B, and C, A andB, B and C, or A and C.)“Another change which willprobably result from the systemof equal units,” Hill continued,“will be the lengthening of theSpring Quarter.” Units may Ik*given in any of the three quarters,and an equal length of time wouldbe required of the same unitgiven in any quarter.Macfee to preach SundayChaplain Robert MacfeeMinto, of Stanford University,will be the preacher for theUniversity Religious Servicethis Sunday in Rockefeller Chapel.The title of Minto’s sermon is“The Good Shepherd.” Servicesbegin at 11 am.Minto has done a great deal of traveling in the 27 years since hograduated from Union TheologicalSeminary.

Allen got His B.A. degreefrom Wabash College in June, 1957,and went to work with Indiana BellTelephone Company at Indianapolis.“It looked like a growing companywhere I could grow, too,’’ he says.It was. Today he is an AssistantTraffic Supervisor there. He’s in chargeof six other supervisory people andabout 100 telephone operators.Boh attributes his rapid progress totwo main factors: the thorough train¬ing he received and the steady growthof the telephone business.“1 was trained to he a telephone man¬ ager, not just a traffic specialist,” hepoints out. “I’ve also had practical, on-the-job experience in the plant, com¬mercial and engineering phases of thebusiness. So I'm equipped to handlenew responsibilities all the time.

Both the plotand the infant prodigy werehatched last year, and the onereason the poor bird can thinkof for its downy existence isthe fact that it was the onlytheatre chick gullible enoughto be metamorphosized into afull fledged culture. Be thatas it may, the voice of the flat-footed vulture will be heardagain in the land, burblingmerrily and rather inanely inthat culture garden of the uni¬verse, Chicago. Having beenshown all the files that it willnever use, and then been sum¬marily deserted by all and sun¬dry, (mostly sundry), this birdhas nobly sacrificed a quillfrom its own unfledged back¬side and is now prepared totell you all (which is not verymuch) that is going on inChicago. row and Sunday at 2 pm in Man-del Hall.

The Young People’sSocialist League is showing Far-rebique, a story of a peasant fam¬ily in France. All the actors arenon-professionals, mainly becausethe back to the earth movementcouldn’t supply anyone who want¬ed to.go back, so the producers hadto use people who were alreadystuck in the mud.

This, in my humble opin¬ion, is one of the best Guinessfilms going and deserves to beseen twice, at least. Why it iscalled The Horse’s Mouth is be¬ yond me, because the plot con¬cerns a poor downtrodden artist,and doesn’t even have a shot of ahorse, let alone its moyth. Per¬haps Sir Alec is supposed to be ahorse of many colors, which mayvery well be, because his teetharen't too good anyway, but atany rate, it’s a marvelous movieand shouldn’t be missed.MusicThe Chicago Symphony Orches¬tra opens its 69th season with Ber¬lioz’s tender, throbbing and rathercloying Romeo and Juliet.
