              Play review
'Skin of Our Teeth1 is
H
a wila, unusual \ourney
By Mark S. Bacon
•The Skin of Our Teeth,* which opened last night, Is a symbolic,
allegorical and somewhat realistic journey down the great cross¬
roads of man. The Journey, which was pleasurable, though bizarre
at times, had several tour guides including a shapely blond, the
stage manager and Mr. George Antrobus, a typical American husband
The play began In mater-of-fact terms with blond and beautiful
Cheryl Silvey, dressed in a short maid's outfit, explaining in almost
narator style, the plot of the play to the audience. "It's all about
the trouble that the human race has been through," she said In her
miniskirt monologue, punctuating the sentence by placing her hands

family: Mr. and
Case, their son and daughter,
their maid Sabina, played by
Mrs.  Antrobus,  Mel
Sandy Brown and Eleanor Allison
Miss Silvey.
Each of the play's three acts takes the family through a different
period in time as they champion the cause of humanity.
Cobb as Mr. Antrobus is tall, firm and convincing. He is a veteran
of many college productions and shows it. He goes about his part
with confidence, yet also with much enthusiasm as if It were his first
Almost the same can be said for Miss Case, as Mrs. Antrobus,
who seems to match the talent of Cobb. Some of her emotion-filled
lines created wrinkled brows In the audience, but she also can and
does deliver several funny lines.
Sandy Brown, a stand-in for Mike Lynch who was originally cast
In the role of Henry Antrobus, Is ten years old. Actually he Is much
older, but In his part his wide-eyed excitement Is that of a child.
His sister, who he battles, is Eleanor Allison who symbolizes
childhood Innocence and currloslty. Her voice and actions are child-
It e but her attractiveness rivals Miss Silvey.
Linda Nanklrvls is to be especially noted In the second act. She
plays a fortune teller, and temporarily takes over the Job of nar¬
rator from Sabina to tell of the impending doom of the world. At one
point she thrusls a crooked finger toward the audience and threatens
that certain people will begin to grow warts. Just listening to her
accented delivery and looking at her wltch-Hke make-up would cause
anyone to grow warts.   A good performance.
Nothing Is free from criticism In the play Including the play Itself,
as Miss Silvey constantly pauses, Issues a statement on the banality
of the play or her lines, then delivers the lines. Miss Silvey, who
spends much of her time talking directly to the audience, has a voice
which Is sultry, low and apparently very strong as she projects very
loud and long throuRhout the play, climaxing In several loud out¬
bursts in the last act.
The play Is filled with symbolism of many types and also many
biblical references such as Ihe great flood and Noah's Ark. At no
time does the symbolism become too abstract, for when It does one
of the players, usually Sabina, pauses and explains the lines to the
One facet of the play which Is Interesting Is Ihe mixture of humor
with tense drama. Many times a tense scene will be sprinkled with
humorous lines or comic quips which seem to be in contradiction to
the dramatic, serious tone. The funny lines are plentiful.

The sheer surprise value of much of the play, coupled with the

Hassen admitted to his female
audience after Introducing his
topic, "Responsibility and Po¬

Hassen, father of fourboysand
a girl, stated that a women's goal
In life should be to reach her
potential, "becoming what you
can become."
wife and mother, or part of a
woman's biological make-up—but
I know there are some things
that women can know that can't
be proven logically."
Hassen feels Intuition is prob¬
ably being ridiculed today by some
Intellectuals. And the greatest
threat to students today is, ln-
tellectuallsm-not Intelligence,
but Intellectuallsm-the Ideathat
things that are true must be
proven logically or scientifically.

In the March 5th edition of the
Dally Collegian.
•The Election Committee Is
representative of the caliber of
people we have as student govern¬
ment leaders on this campus,*
said  Bezaylff.
The election committee found
Bezaylff guilty of mailing letters
to 28 organizations on campus
stating that he and his running
mate, Burton Swope, would be
happy to discuss the campaign
with groups.
Burton Swope, a candidate for
ASB president, sent the letters
and Bezaylff s name was on the
letters,   but  not  his  signature.
Swope has already been fined for

Wlth ac.lve campaigning for
student body offices still more
than a week away, three can¬

to pay for a child who wished that
his mother was home when he
needed her.
Hassen said not only do the
children need their mothers but
their  husbands  need  them  too.
"Speaking from experience I
know how Important It Is to a
man to come home tired, frus¬
trated, dejected and hungry to
