'The Bishop's Mantle," a three
act play, will be given in the
Arena theatre on the stage of
Warriner Auditorium November
20, 21, and 24 at 8:15 p.m. by the
class in play production. A matinee performance will also be
given Saturday afternoon, November 22. The three-act play- is
the story of a young rector and
the problems he encounters when
he takes over the rectorship of
St. Matthews church.
From ihe time Hilary Lauren
(Jim   Bowen)   walks  into  ihe
study of Si. Matthew's, he has
trouble.  The   sexton  (Joe  El-
lard)   meets  him  coldly,  his
younger brother Dick (Jim McLennan) tells him he has made
a bad investment in a mine, and
Lex   (Esther  Pinkos),  whom
Hilary loves, is afraid io be ihe
wife of a clergyman.
Lex's   aunt   (Betty  Moore),   a
rich   dowager,   hates   Hilary's
branch of the family and warns
Hilary to forget Lex or he may
lose his job. To top it all, in a
powerful scene, a young couple
from the poverty stricken  area
which surrounds the church, ap
pear to be married. Everyone
wants Hilary to marry them in
his study. But Hilary stands pat
and orders the candles on the alter lighted and the marriage is
solemnized in the church.
Hilary is very much worried
about these tenement people
and the conditions in which
they live. Then he finds out ihai
his own senior vestryman (Bill
Horning) owns them. However,
Hilary is  still able   to worry
about ihe soul of his vestryman
as well as ihe needs of ihe poor.
The tension is relieved when
the amusing Mr. Dunn (Neil Suomela) determines to marry his
daughter (Mary Ellen Sweeney)
Spec/of Magazine
Added to library
"Perspectives USA" is a new
magazine which is designed to
set before the readers material
which will enable them to view
the culture of the United States
in accurate perspective.
As this magazine is designed
for distribution abroad, it will be
published four times a year in
several different language editions: English, French, German,
and Italian at the outset, with
Spanish, and perhaps others, to
follow.
The magazine will contain reprinted material selected by
and articles written by outstanding contemporary poets,
novelists, painters, musicians,
thinkers, scholars, critics, and
architects who have gifts of the
first order io give the world.
It is the belief of the sponsors
of "Perspectives USA" that various misconceptions exist about
American culture abroad, and a
distortion of its own values has
been built up, quite as often by
the shortcomings of some of its
own phenomena, (such as Hollywood movies or the comic book)
as by antagonistic political propaganda.
To remedy ihe situation, ihe
staff of ihe magazine will do
whatever ii finds possible. It
is hoped that ihis magazine,
which is printed in translation
abroad and available ai low
cost, will foster ihe development of world understanding
and a sense of moral community
among peoples of ihe world.
To achieve this idea, the editors are pledged to a policy which
will keep the pages of "Perspectives USA" free of propaganda or
political pressure. It is published
by Intercultural Publications Inc.,
a non-profit corporation established by the Ford Foundation.
The reference room of the library is subscribing to this new
and outstanding magazine, which
attempts to give the inside picture of the "real" American culture. It is on display with other
current magazines.

position.
However,   Harry  once  more
comes to the help of an unfortunate,  when  he  helps  Maudie
Dunn to find self respect and she
becomes engaged to Dick.  This
provides more trouble when it is
learned that Dick has ho money.
Tommy  Tattler plagues the
group  with  spiteful  gossip,
when he uses Lex's social position to spice references to the
young rector of Si. Matthews.
With ihis malicious attack, all
contentions within ihe play are
brought to a climax, as Hilary—
wiih outcome uncertain—stands
foresquare in ihe struggle for
his ideals and ihe woman he
loves.
Others who take supporting
roles in the play are Pat Thwaites,
who takes the part of Hilary's
secretary; Vera Becker, cast as

ther, who takes the part of.Jo
Perkins McComb, a tenement
dweller.
