modate hundreds Of special students
in night courses covering all aspects
of the theater, with correlative op-
portunities for laboratory work in
the university's widely recognized
theater.
In addition, the program envisages
almost continuous operation of the
theater in the interest Of recreation
for both military and civilian popu-
lations Of Washington and vicinity.
In announcing the broadening OF
the schools field of service, Father
Gilbert v. Hartke points out that
there will be no compromise with
those production standards which
have made it one of the outstanding
college drama organizations between
New York and Hollywood.
The new courses, which will be
open for the first time to special
students without college degrees, are
designed to give thorough instruc-
ton In all phases of the drama.
They include a general introduction
to the theater, primary and ad-
vanced public speaking, contempo-
rary drama, play direction, radio
script writing, stage design and or
ganization and acting technique.
Glasses will be held Monday through
Friday, beginning at ITO pm.
Decision to expand the school Is
counted upon to provide the de-
partment with q considerably larger
producing group. The degree to
which it does so will determine the
number of plays which will be pre-
sented during the remainder Of the
present school year and the summer
term. It is the hope Of Father Hartke
that registrations will be sufficient.
and the talent, adequate, to operate

liant performers as Sara Allgood,

built the department to its present
