Glen Players' Production Of 'Summer And Smoke' Cancelled The Glen Players' production Summer and Smoke has been canceled, for numerous reasons. The primary difficulty was one rising from the relation-ship between the Glen Player organization and the director. A disagreement between the designers of the set and the director over the set culminated in the resignation of the designers. Technical staff heads also resigned from their positions on this play after the set designers resigned.

Members of the SCB tentatively plan to schedule music programs in the late afternoon. Tentative pro-grams include show tunes, modern jazz, classical music and sem-clas-sical music. Student chairmen in charge of the new stereo are John Mackert and Churck Hinkel. Students in-terested in either programming the music or operating the stereo should contact either John or Chuck.
