Ashland The proverbial mid night oil has burned far past midnight and into the dawn hours this past week at the Shakespearean festival theatre. These all-night sessions have, been devoted to the season's j lighting effects, and of necessity I had to terminate at dawn as it is impossible to check stage lighting effects by daylight. It was necessary for the tech nical staff to focus and set the lighting instruments before the technical rehearsals so the re hearsals could be devoted entire ly to intergrating the lighting effects with the plays. These technical rehearsals, and the first round of dress rehearsals, are the only opportunities the tech crew has to "see how every thing looks and works'' before opening night. The festival lighting director, David Thayer, states that there are many great improvements in this season's stage lighting. First of all. the optical system of some of the spotlights was redesigned in order to permit greater oper ating efficiency, and to give bet ter and more even patterns of light on the stage. The facade of the theatre has been remodeled somewhat to ac commodate new mounting posi tions for the lights. Also, a new mounting position has been added out front. This was primarily designed to help spread the light over the ex treme fcrestage area to increase visibility in this very difficult-to-light area. All of the lighting equipment has been repaired, cleaned, pol ished, and adjusted. The festival also obtained five new Lekolight spotlights this season. There have been many prob lems encountered by the lighting department. The first arose dur ing the heavy rains when the crews had to cover the lights to protect them, and then had to re-focus and re-set each light thereby losing many needed work hours. This involved sev eral additional "midnight oil" sessions. Other lighting problems arose in "Richard the Third' as two scenes must be lighted from in side medieval tents on the stage, rather than from out front. More technical effects involving the lighting department appear in the ghost scenes in "Richard.'' These scenes call for smoke (de rived from hydrochloric acid and ammonium hydroxide which produces a non-toxic smoke), and an elevator-type trap in the stage floor. Dress rehearsals are now un derway and then opening night arrives With "Richard the Third."

This, despite the continuing war that government and in dustrial scientists wage on the minute creatures who crawl or fly their pesky way through our lives. "Science constantly tries to outwit the low ly bug," said Dr. Harlan R. Shuylcr. a prominent entomologist of Kansas City, Mo. "But burzs have a long herit age of adaptability. We come up with new ways to kill them. They n(somms In mfi in MEWS and LADIES' Famous Nationally Advertised CP ... . ' a 17-JEWEl WATCHES NOW ONLY" NO MONEY DOWN YOU SET THE TERMS! Household Pests Still Thrive In Spite of Scientists' War come up with new ways to sur vive." He pointed to the use of DDT on the house fly. At first, the chemical was lethal but it didn't take the fly long to develop a strain immune to the insecticide. The entomologist, who holds ' a doctorate from Purdue univer sity, directs the newly organized Home Insect Control bureau, a nonprofit outfit to help banish bugs. Cockroach Is Top Shuyler said that in the home alone, insects cause SI. 000. 000. 000 damage annually. They ruin foodstuffs, fabrics and furnishings. They help to spread filth and disease. And some of them bite. Shuyler said of the several hundred varieties of bugs which bother the household, he con siders Hie smelly cockroach tops in' peskiness. 'His presence symbolizes dirt," said Shuyler. "The fly is thought of more as a pest to be tolerated, although he is poten tially more dangerous as a germ carrier." Besides, he added, the total "fly population" is down. In turn, Shuyler warned, the homemaker belter keep an eye peeled for bedbugs. Their popu lation is on the increase. Why? "Well," said the scientist, "he's a new face to a whole new gen eration. His numbers fell so low for a while, a lot of women don't recognize him anymore. . . so he thrives." Cleanliness Helps He said the bedbug also had learned new ways to get into the home some of them come into new houses on the lumber. And thev've developed resistance to DDT. Shuyler also cautioned, watch for the carpet beetle and silver fish, as well as the fimiliar clothes moth. He said the silver fish (or firebright) causes about S100.000.000 damage each year. jUrxftfcjfajw nininii USE WEISFIELD'S SIMPLIFIED CREDIT YOU SET THE TERMS t. .Mam.

He said the most ef fective new one contains a chem ical called dieldrin, many times more potent than DDT. Next to insecticides, he called cleanliness the most effective way of combatting the bug fam ily. "Especially in the kitchen," he emphasized. "A roach thrives on a few crumbs spilled between stove and cabinet." He urged quick disposal of garbage inside and outside, and he also urged the housewife to "read up" on bugs. "The more she knows about them, the better she can wage war on them," he said. He predicted that air condi tioning in homes will increase one part of the insect population, although it will make life hot for the house fly. "The pill bug loves damp spot." said the scientist. "The condensation around the ducts of the conditioner is heaven for him." You can make your own cut flower "frogs" with galvanized netting. Cut a piece of netting to fit the flower bowl, leaving 1 inch strips at the corners to turn down for legs.
