The amiable Williams is a dark, mustached young man who came to Oregon after tour years at Yale, where he majored in technical production and direction and received his master of fine arts ir. drama in 1947. He moved into his office in the drama cottage after a six day trip across country in a Pontiac bulging with a trunk, books, and personal belongings. Ingenuity Demanded “The stage crew and technical director must be able to produce anything the playwright may de mand which means we do a lot of work with papier mache,” he con tinued, toying with a set of new drills he had just purchased. Some of the things he as produced upon demand for plays have been a soda fountain, a fire engine that ran, water pumps, and a firing cannon. Williams gained a first rate course in bacteriology while doing special research for the play “Yel low Jack,” the story of science con quering the yellow jack fever. Any incongruity such as using a modern microscope in the play that had not been invented at the time bothers he audience a great deal, he said. Theater Designer After obtaining a bachelor of fine arts from the University of Arizona in 1040, Williams went into the army where he helped plan the army outdoor theater. He has done a great deal of work in plan ning new theaters and has just re cently designed the new theater for Wellsley college. Aside from his degrees, he also graduated from the Columbia Broadcasting system’s radio school in 1939 and worked on continuity writing and production. At the mo ment he is writing a series of ar ticles on theater architecture for Billboard, a theatrical publication. As a note to Homecoming decor ators who would like to borrow properties from the department, Williams said, “We have nothing to give them but advice and good wishes.” Marine 'Salmon Feed' Former marines, their wives, and friends have been extended an invitation to the marine corps league annual “Salmon Feed” at the armory at 7 p.m. Monday.
