Unity of Arts Dancer Teaches Architecture Class By TIIORA WILLIAMS Emerald Feature Editor Unity of the arts is an ac cepted concept. But when the physical education department offers a new dance class for ar chitecture students only, some people might wonder. Enlisted from New York to teach the experimental course this term was Baston Mumaw. who danced for five years in the Broadway production of “My Fair Lady." was the principal dancer in 'Annie Get Your Gun." and has had nine solo perform ances at Carnegie Hall. Architecture C o n t e m porary Dance introduces an application of the long-recognized relation ship of the arts of building and body movement. Mumaw said Humanism in Architecture “This is humanism in architec ture,” he explained, for “archi tecture grew out of the human body and movement itself.” He emphasized that the ideas pre sented in the class are not new. only their application. He said architecture and dance have the same three basic ele ments: form, space and meaning or use. Architecture is “a physi cal response to environment it is “like a second skin.” SU Calendar Wednesday.

Children Treated Like Worms Mumaw discussed the torture 1 of isolation, the emotional need j for “room to breathe.” He said the -new windowless, air-condi . tioned schools, being tried in some parts of the country, are j "absolute murder.” j Federal Groups iTo Discuss Careers Federal administrators will discuss careers in the federal government with anyone inter ested from 9 to 2 p.m. Thursday ; i in the Dad’s Room of the Stu ! dent Union in connection with the campus observance of Fed- j eral Career Day.

NO CHARGE FRESH BREAD "It’s raising children in bomb shelters — treating them as if they were worms or rodents.” He said, “Architecture is the translation of human feeling and human needs into buildings.” For example, the strength of n col umn corresponds to the strength of the back; the curve of an arch derives from the swing of the arm. “Architects have been concern ed with plans and materials, but have neglected the heart, which is the human being.” Mumaw teaches his students to “feel movement in their own bodies and attain a relationship with the drawn lines which they otherwise would not have.” “Story of Human Feelings" Therefore, the course is mainly physical. The student might be led to experience the protective strength associated with the cor ner—to move out to increasing lightness or free feeling of space. Mumaw said that architecture ! history is the story of human feelings because “they build themselves into their walls He | said that movement and building are the first arts of the human i race. | Besides his two classes in Ar [ chitccture Dance. Mumaw teaches i a class for dancers and one for actors. His architecture-dance stu dents may be low on previous ex perience in movement, hut they I catch on quickly, Mumaw said “If you’re interested in teach ing, you don't mind the level It's just as fulfilling to learn t h e movement alphabet as for a great ballerina to learn a new turn " Has Toured Abroad Mumaw began his studies with Ted Shawn, first internationally known male American dancer, in | 1930 and has been dancing ever I since. He has toured throughout the United States and abroad, lias played in summer stock all over the country, and this summer ap peered in the Jacobs Pillow dance festival, oldest and most famous American dunce festival. With all of his activity, Mu maw hasn't had time to get mar ried "It's a dog’s life.” he joked "I’m waiting until I can collect my Social Security.” Working in setting up the course was done by M Francis Dougherty, professor of physical education and Arthur A Ksslm gei. dean of the School of Health. Physical Education, and Recrea tion, with Wallace S. Hayden, professor of architecture. Infirmary Ann lietrybtH. 1* r> n KIimj.
