Son Francisco Troupe s Snow
Called 'Sick, Sick, Sick'
A minstrel show that denis with
racial issues is scheduled for 8
p.m. Saturday in the Student Un
ion Ballroom.
Co-sponsored by the SU Hoard
and the University chapter of the
Students for a Democratic Soci
ety, “A Minstrel Show or: Civil
Rights in a Cracker Barrel” will
be performed by the San Fran
cisco Mime Troupe. According to
R. G. Davis, the show's co-author
and director, the show has been
performed before about 40,000
persons.
At St. Martin’s College in La
cey. Wash., nearly half the 200
spectators had already left the
theatre when the curtains closed
at intermission at a performance
Sunday evening. St. Martin’s is
a Roman Catholic institution.
According to Associated Press
reports, Mike Waske, student
body president at St. Martin’s, is
sued a statement Monday saying
the performance in the campus
theater "went beyond the bounds
of valid social commentary and
exceeded any reasonable, liberal
bonds for freedom of artistic ex
pression.
"We feel that we owe an apol
ogy to those we invited to sec
this performance,” Waske said.
“They came to be entertained or
to be informed on a controver
sial question.
“Instead, they were insulted
and embarrassed by a display of
obscenity unnecessary to t li e
message the performers pro
fessed to be expression."
Jerry Gray, administrative as
sis I ant to the president of St
Martin's, said the play violates!
good taste by frequent use of ob
scene four-letter words.
* Gray said the players and the
production seemed to be "a de
liberate attempt to stamp on
every standard or normal con
cept of morality which most of
us hold with regard to women "
He also said the theme was
supposed to be a protest against
the way society treats Negroes,
but that the play struck him a*
bearing "no resemblance to his
torical truth."
The play has been recommend
ed for adult entertainment.
rhe Hev. Michael Feeney, pr»%
ident of St Martin's, praised the
student* for their decision to rnd
the performance of what In- Unit

Every mother wants to raise her family
in a safe and friendly atmosphere
When the little hummingbird set up housekeeping
in a Standard Oil refinery, she paid us a high
compliment.
She didn’t know that our Company had invested
millions to remove smoke and vapors from the
refinery atmosphere, but she found it highly com
patible—and she’s an expert judge of air. The
refinery’s human neighbors also benefit.
Clearing smoke and smog from the atmosphere of
whole cities will be a more complex problem, but
Standard Oil works for this, too—through research,
joint efforts with public authorities, the loan of top
scientists to pollution control projects in your
community’s interest.
Whether it’s protecting natural resources, scenic
areas and wild life ... guarding water resources
against pollution ... or preventing contamination
of the air in our busy cities... Standard Oil is
dedicated to conservation — an important part of
our responsibility to you.
P.b. The baby hummingbirds, born at our El Segundo, California.'
refinery, were as pretty as their mother.
