This Is the time Of year
when sneezes and sniffles
take the center Of the stage.
The misery caused by the
common cold Is somewhat
like the pain Of childbirth.
We forget about both in be-
tween colds and children.
The latest thought Of SCI
ence Is that the cold is caused
by viruses. About six Of them
already have been isolated.
However, there are evidently
others which have not yet
been identified since there Is
no one sure-cure or prevent.
ative drug for this malady.
About . Week
The everyday cold lasts
about q week, and once it Is
established 1t usually runs its
course, no matter what you
do. The important thing Is
to take care Of yourself so it
won't turn into something
worse, such as pneumonia or
sinus or ear infections. And
to try to avoid giving 1t to
others. II your cold lasts
more than q week. or II your
fever goes up more than a
degree, call your physician.

Seeks Musicians

M Sergeant Bernard Nj. Laid,
local US Army recruiter, has re-
vea.ed that a critical shortage cur
rently exists within the Army for
bandsmen especially for personnel
who play any of the following in
StrumentS: piano, bassOon, from
bone, B-flat clarinet, baritone sax,
flute or piccolo.
Because of this shortage and a
continuing need, the Army has
authorized the enlistment of quail
fled young men for direct assign
ment to an Army Band upon com
pletion of basic training
Sergeant Laid stressed that al
though all travel and expenses
from the applicants home to the
US Army Recruiting Main Sta
ton in Fairmont, W. Va, are borne
by the government; the travel and
expenses accrued in connection
with the addition at Fort Meade
must be paid for by the applicant.
However, Sergeant Laid has re-
ceived assurances from Captain
Gerald b. Overman, the com
mander in Fairmont, that every
attempt will be made to schedule
additions so as to coincide with
normal administrative and supply
trips to Fort Meade to ensure that
deserving young men with limited
funds may not be denied this OPP

Review of The Play
"Tunnel Of Love"

The eighth and final production
of the Garrett County Playhouse
brings to a close perhaps the most
successful seasCl in the local
theatcr's seven years of existence.
Opening nights attendance was
around the 200 mark. This is 4
clear indication of the fine selec-
tion of plays by producer, Gene
lcil, the top-flight manner in
which Tom Calkins directed, and
the seriousness of the company
which took over this summer. We
hope they all return in the near
future.
If YOU are looking for the icing
on the cake then we feel you will
take the entire production of
Tunnel of Live" to your heart.
Joseph Fields and Peter De Vries
have put together play that you
can almost guess the ending be-
fore the finish of the first act.
However, dear reader. do not let
this deter you from a delightful
evening of fun and frolic.
Tunnel" takes place in mod
ern day studio in Westport, Con-
nccticut Augie Poole, frustrated
Illustrator. and comic, played so
extremely well by Neil Flanagan,
opens the play with argument
with his wife who insists that she
wants a baby in the worst Wa%
She is not sure-nor is the doctor
that she can even have one.
Mary Ann Craig, who plays this
great emotional part to the hilt
and does ii so cOnvincingly, is the
wife of Augie and tries to convince
him that she desperately wants a
child. The adoption agency sends
out an investigator done with pro-
fessional skill by Nancy Gottburg,
who later needs scientific investi-
cation herself.
Dick Pepper done by Bob Lalich,
who has carved a niche in the
local hall of fame as far as this
reviewer is concerned, is no help
as reference for the Poole's in
their attempt to adopt a baby

tural grace by Jackie Flanagan

been hiding his Wife-tries to keep
her philandering husband on the
straight and narrow with little sue

things of beauty of the world He
somehow manages to keep his
wife constantly in the family way.

well as the moods of the char
acterS. Finally when Miss Nc
Cracker makes her appearance
from the Rock-a-Bye adoption
agency, in the person of Mary
Ellen Smith, and no finer char
acter actress ever graced the doors
of the local theater, then we can
see through the whole machina-
ton of the scheme of our friend
Augie, although he claims he was
taken When he finally gets his
own child for adoption-and he
is found out because he resembles
the father-he soon discovers that
Isolde, his wife has a craving for
the darnedeSt things.
And so the curtain rings down
this week on the Garrett County
Playhouse This is your last ou-
portunity to see theater in the
round in this area for the present
season. An expression of gratitude
to all those members of the audi
ence who so generously supported
Gene Yell and his excellent COM
pany. 1t is the audience that can
make or break player or COM
pany, and we feel we can say I'M
hesitatingly that this company
was one of the finest in the history
of the local theater 1t is also our
feeling that stars we're born on the
stage out at McHenry.

consequences of poverty among
the masses.
Shock is the essence of both
films and it is as brilliantly
achieved by Luchino Visconti
in Rocco and His Brothers" as
by Federico Fellini in the other
picture. The former also
takes three hours to cover the
revtIlsion with which ViSconti
imbues his absorbing and hor-
rifying story. This should come
as no surprise to moviegoers,
of course, since they learned
long ago how much of passion
Italian directors, writer's. and
actors pour into their fury at
fate.
It Is q much more tightly
woven screenplay than Fellini's
that Visconti visualizes so
mercileSsly.
The latter's subject Is the
corruption of a southern peas
ant family. the Parondis, mi

types who operate small time

In this jobless, vice clogged cli-
mate, the single hope of the
Parondi family is that one of

the family's honor-the final
one Simone'S murder of Nadia.
=
In general, Visconti'S direc-
ton of Rocco and His Broth
ers" is persuasive in its piling
of shock upon shock. There
are moments, however, when
the suspicion creeps into the
spectators mind that he is be-
ing asked to take too much.
Thanks to the brilliance of
the films performances, how
ever, such intervals are fugi-
tive and bearable.
The dazzling center of these
is that supplied by Alain Delon
as the invincibly devoted decent
Rocco and by Annie Girardot
as the Magdalene who paid with
her life for her belated discov-
cry of virtue. Renato Salvatore
makes his portrait of Simone
one of remorseless animality
and Katina Paxinou as the
mother of the Parondis is an
unforgettably loud and agon-
lied madonna.

falls upon the morally weakest
of the sons, Simone. Far
greater than his ring talent is
his zest for debauchment, espe-
cially at the hands Of his cor
rupt manager and the prosti-
tute, Nadia.
In their effort to save ST.
none. the other Parondis are
drawn, one by one into the
depraved orbit in which he
moves. Chief victim of this
process is the gentle, sanity
Rocco who hates vice and vio-
lence equally but has the po-
tential Of a real ring cham
pion. And, as such, he is the
Parondi who can redeem the
family from its poverty, and
at least possibly, Simone from
the depravity in which he wal
lows.
The dramatic point of Wis
conit's screenplay is that the
greatest heroes are the greatest
martyrs.
Certainly this Is true of
Rocco in the Towns new film.
In the course OF distastefully
fighting his way to the top of
his corrupt profession, he is ex-
posed to enough savage ironies
to shatter any less sanity Pa
rondi. Most agonizing of these
grows out of the circumstance
that while he cannot save ST.
none from Nadia, he does save
Nadia from Simone.
They fall in love, with the
result that she is not merely
reformed, but transformed. In
vengeance, and hatred for Roc
co.'s goodness, Simone rapes his
former mistress while his de-
PRAYED companions force Rocco
to watch the brutal act.
Thereafter, all Rocco's ring
opponents become the faces of
Simone's evil demon, but for
his subhuman brother Rocco
has only forgiveness. He must
seek the good in the worst of
his family members, all of

Washington's Arena Stage
has been invited to appear next
summer at Worlds Fair Cen

Washington. In all likelihood
the appearance will be made,
though at this point the in
vitation has been accepted in
principle only.
Further negotiations now are
under way. The first considera-
ton, according to Zelda Fich-

Arena, will be fulfillment of
all obligations to Arenas Wash

certain that the acting COM

seriously.
The invitation to appear at
the Seattle fair was extended
at the same time to two other
companies that have received
Ford Foundation grants. San

scheduled to be seen at the

Missouri House Kills
Civil Piohfs BILL

jefferson City, Mo. (ANP) -
The House last week killed a bill
to prohibit discrimination in places
of public accommodation on
grounds of race, creed or color.
The vote was II in favor and
Al against, with 10 members vot-
ing present. Seventy-nine votes are
needed for passage.
The bill was introduced by Re-
preventative Hugh White Dem },
st. Louis, and 20 cosponsors in
GLIDING some outstate members.
White said in debate that the
measure was intended more for
education than prosecution, and
was not intended to create a
stampede on white barber shops
or white beauty parlors."
Enforcement Of the bill in ques-
ton would have been assigned to
the Missouri Commission on HUI
man Rights, with provision for in
vestigation of complaints. Viola
ton would have been a misde-
meanor.
