What, No Gatling Gun? 'Forest' Needs Artillery Everything from toothpicks to submachine guns is needed by Jim Shaffer, graduate assistant, who is in charge of properties for the University theater’s first produc tion of the 1948-49 season, “The Petrified Forest.” Along with three ipistols, the submachine guns, and one sawed off shotgun, Shaffer will need a life insurance policy—for the play’s hero, Allan Squire, played by Lewis Vogler. The “small ar senal” is for the use of gangster Duke Mantee, Norman Weekly, and his mob, portrayed by A1 Stockstad, Mervin Lovett, and George LaRoche. Marble-topped Tables Scarce Its not only the show that opens October 22 for a seven day run, but also the opening of a restaurant for Shaffer. Main stymie in fur nishing the Black Mesa Bar-B-Que, scene of the play’s action, are two marble-topped tables. “Of the drug store type,” Shaf Sain Outduels Feller (Continued from page one) Boudreau, in fact, argued with um pire Bill Stewart about it. As it turned out, Stewart’s de cision was the most vital one of the thrilling contest. It gave Holmes all the chance he needed to join Sain as co-hero and send the underdog Boston club away wing ing. With the big run under his belt, Sain didn’t give the Indians a chance to fight back in the ninth. After Boudreau and Joe Gordon flew out to open the frame, Cleve land got a brief life when Elliott took Ken Keltner’s roller and threw high over Earl Torgeson’s head at first base. With Keltner on second a single could have sent the battle into ex tra innings. But rightfielder Walt Judnich looked at a third strike and the crowd stormed onto the field. The Braves practically car ried Sain to the dressing room. None of the four blows off Sain was better than a single, and they were spaced over as many innings, from the first through the sixth. The big fellow, a 24-game winner during the past campaign, didn’t allow anything resembling a hit in the last three chapters. fer explained. “The story takes place in the early ’30s, so no mod ern equipment can be used.’’ Lucky Strike White is ‘Out’ No detail is being overlooked by Shaffer. Since "Lucky strike green has gone to war” and never re turned, none of this brand can be used in the cigarette display. Restaurant accessories, from salt and pepper shakers through a cash register and up to an ice box and stove, are required for the setting. Easier properties to secure in clude a picture of General Persh ing, needed for Jason, Charles Boice, a veteran of the first world war. Two copies of the Denver Post will be a favorite hand prop of Gramp, who “don’t get to do much reading outside of the head lines.” Louise Clouston, as Gabby, the play’s leading female character, will be serving the Black Mesa,'s “today’s special”—hamburgers. Fresh hamburgers, eight win dow panes, and several wine bot tles will have to be secured for each performance of the play. The hamburgers are eaten, and the other props are destroyed in the final scene by gunfire. Poll Reveals (Continued from page one) committee, smugly announced that she had no worries. “I’m gonna make my own,” she said. “I have a friend in the print shop at state (one of the type lice) who’ll print up a batch and I’ll sell ’em at double price to red headed people with freckles.” 4000 Tickets Necessary Walt Freauff, newly elected president of the United Students Association, considers the ticket situation “Outrageous.” ‘We should have at least 4000 tickets,” he exclaimed. His solution to the distribution problem consists of a lottery, proportionately allotting a percentage of the ducats to each class.
