Pygmalion is
Modern Play
By G. B. Shaw
The Dublin Players to appear
in Pygmalion at the Fine Arts Au
ditorium . Oct. 31 was originally
formed by Ronald Ibbs in Ireland
i 1 1947 under the name of the
Ronald Ibbs Company, and was
resigned to be a touring company
in Ireland which vould play a sea
son each jear in 'Dublin. Previous
to this time. Mr. Ibbs had for nine
jerrsbcsn hating man at. the
Gate Theatre in the Earl of Long
faro's Company with his wife.
Maur;2n Kallisan. Miss Halligan
jDine'-i her husband in establish
ing his company, and has not only
; been a leading actress with the
company, but has directed many
of the productions. The new Ibbs
Company was an immediate suc
cess both on .tour and during its
Dublin seasons, and the new actor-
' actress managerial team proved
; itself to be a worthy addition to
Ireland's rich theatrical culture.
After two years of playing in
Ireland, including a very contro
versial production of "Hamlet" in
modern dress, directed by Tyrone
I Guthrie, the Ibbs Company was
seen in Ireland by famed critic,.
author and dramatist, trie Kent
ley, who was so enthusiastic over
it that he persuaded Mr. Ibbs to
take his company to America to
: tour under the auspices of the In
ternational Theatre Exchange. In
this project Mr. Bentley was as
sisted by his colleague Mr. Brian
B. Acworth. For the American
tour, Ibbs divided his company
into two units, one -to tour America
tinder the title of The Dublin Play
ers, and one to stay in Ireland.
The Dublin Players were placed
under the directorship of Maureen
Halligan and Mr. Ibbs remained in
Ireland to continue the work of the
company there.
The original American tour of
'The Dublin Players was so suc
cessful that their time here was
extended, and Mr. Ibbs rejoined
the company in New York to con
tinue the tour under the manage
ment of impressario, Clark H.
Getts, who brings the company
back this season from Ireland, and
who has extended this, their fifth
coast-to-coast tour, to encompass
more than one hundred major cit
ies of the United States and Can
ada. QJffl)(oGJ

What is a transparents water
color? It is many things. Poetical
ly we can state that it is a prayer;
it is laughter, perhaps a tear. It
is a wish and a hope. It is star
running and rain splashing. It is
flower, smelling and earth tasting.
"It is cloud shadow and bright sun
light in which your being swims.
It is an. emotional drunkenness
that utters "the words "Vital Sec
ond." It is momentary time, pin
pointed and water-laden.
A watereolor attempt 'U speak i
the unutterable, the formless. It
is the reality of clear perception
freed of surface boundaries and
restricting identifications that ex
ist by themselves. A watercolor
is the real Juice f your inner
being crying visually U be freed
from the restrictions t (be facts
of life, earthboond and form en-.
cased. , j
In' watercolor you. attempt to;
find yourself in things and emo
tions with an intensity intimacy
that has the clairvoyance of a vis
ion. You look for surface connect-!
ions, reach for spiritual affilia
tionswithin those same connect
ions that free you from the re
striction that is your body, your
conscious position in space and
ime. You soar in the essence of
life through the medium of water
and white paper. j
Different Medium
When an artist states that, he
wants to do a watercolor he is not
thinking about the painting or the
medium. Actually he is concerned
with a state of feeling, a quality
of paint perception that is decided
ly different from that of an oil
painting. While the watercolor
medium is chosen for a specific
reason it is nevertheless subordin
ated to an emotional drive which
- can only find expression in the
fluid, moist freedom of a water
color medium.
- The most important ingredient
in a watercolor is the white of the
paper and the water that flows
over it, bent on following its own
- whim and the character of the
paper. We like to say we control
it, but the best work that, we do
is when the water and paper con
trols us. We have discovered that
the best parts of a watercolor are
the accidental patterns, rhythms,
sparkles created by the flowing vi
tality of the water over a white
"sheet of paper.
When we succeed, we sing,, when
we fail, we try again. So often
we have just begun when we think
we have finished. Watercolor, is a
mystery and a joy.
U. S. Stockpiling
Diamonds for
Industry Uses
WASHINGTON ( The bureau
of mines reports that the govern
ment is stockpiling diamonds for
industrial purposes because this
country has no known commercial
deposits of stones for such use.
Industrial diamond imports now
approximate 50 million dollars a
year, with less than one-fifth of
the diamonds going into jewelry,
the bureau says. "
Stones containing imperfections
are used industrially because their j
hardness enables them to cut such
things as cemented carbide cutting
tools, concrete, stone and glass.

Ronald Ibbs, producer and star of the Dublin Players,
and Julia Worth enact the leading rolls of Shaw's classic
Pygmalion on stage in . the Fine Arts Building Auditorium
on the Willamette Campus October 31.
One of the most popular plays
by the late, great, Irish wit
George Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion
which plays Monday night in the
Fine Arts auditorium at Willam
ette is a modern version of the
Greek legend of Pygmalion and
Galatea, the story of the sculptor
who fell in love with a beautiful
statue of his own creation. The
Greeks would hardly recognize
their original tale, however, for
