Political Drama Is Theme Of Glen Players' Premier The Glen Players opened their new season last night. The pre-miere was that of ALL THE KING'S MEN, a political drama taken from a novel by Robert Penn Warren. It may be seen both tonight and tomorrow night. Playing the lead roles are Van Steedman, who will be demem-bered for his performance in , as Jack Burden, Paul Hjelmervik as Willie Stark, and Linda Olson as Sadie Burke. The cast will also include: Lynn Sommerell at the Pro-fessor, Tim Ferdinand as Duff, George Gonderman as Larsen, Greg Clark as Tom Stark, Rodger Mills as Frey, Bonnie Rankin as Ann, Margie Winterling as Lucy, Auggie Dorsett as Adam, George Allameyer as Irwin. Al Clark as Sugar, Sylvia Sovinski as Jack Burden and Joe Olsen as Slade. Set in a politically corrupt southern state, the play was or-iginally written as a Pulitzer prize-winning novel in 1946 by Robert Penn Warren, a south-erner whose works, says critic Eric Bentley, ""have to be taken as serious moral documents."" It captured an Academy Award as best production of the year in 1949 when it appeared as a motion picture. It was last pre-sented as a play off Broadway at the E. 74th St. Theater in 1959. One of the better political plays available, ALL THE KING'S MEN, was chosen for presentation this year because of its significance as a political play in a political election year. The play itself begins in an unidentified southern state at the dedication of a memorial hos-pital which Governor Willie Clark has built for the people of his state. A series of flash-backs then show Willie's rise to political power, his personal de-feats, and the events which lead to his assassination. Described by director Robert L. Levin as ""gutsy"" the play is Warren's attempt to portray a man who, in seeking to do good, finds he must become involved in corruption and is murdered before he can achieve his bene-volent ends. The nature of the play and the events which take place in it have led some people to believe that Warren intended it as a biography of former Louisiana governor and senator Huey Long, a corrupt political dictator who was assassinated while serving in thhe U.S. Sen-ate in 1935, although Warren never acknowledged such an in-tention. ALL THE KING'S MEN will be presented in Stephens Hall Auditorium on October 22, 23, and 24 at 8:15 P.M. Admission is free to Towson State Students and $1.00 for guests. The Glen Players also offer a special price of $.50 per person to groups of high school students. Mock Election To Be Held Based On National Ballot: Lyndon or Barry Towson's mock election will be held on Monday and Tuesday of next week, October 26 and 27, in the lower level of Stephens Hall from 9 a.m. to#5 p.m. on both days. All students, faculty, admin-istrators, and maintainence staff are invited to participate in the election by casting their vote for the candidate of their choice. The offices of President and vice-President of the United States, the Maryland Senate race, the New York Senate race, and two questions dealing with the Maryland public accomoda-tions law and the federal civil Debate Council To Open Season At Hopkins Towson's Debate Council will open its season with a warm-up tournament tomorrow at Johns Hopkins University. The national debate topic for the year, Resolve: that the federal government should establish a national program of public works for the unemployed, will be debated. At Hopkins, each team will de-bate only one side of the resolu-tion, either affirmative or nega-tive. However, when the regular season starts each team will de-bate both sides of the question. Towson will be represented at the IIopkins tournament for Bal-timore- Washington area schools by both novice and varsity teams. Last year Towson's number one team of Bob Friedenberg and Mike Gordon turned in a 13-13 record including victories over Temple, Brandise, Frank-lin and Marshall, St. Johns of N.Y. , University of Maine, and Princeton. Returning to the debate coun-cil from last year are Bob Frie-denberg and Joan Eustace. New to the council are sophomore Jack Wilson, and freshmen Jack Morris, Pat Davis, Susan Mis-kellie, Vincent Elliot, and Silvia Sivincski, as well as Mrs. Phyllis (Continued on Page 6) rights law will be on the ballot. In the hopes of having a better turnout, the ballots will be in mimeographed form instead of using a voting machine since many people are reluctant to use the latty.. The names of students will be checked off according to a list furnished the election chairman by the Registrar's office. The results of the election will be known probably by next Wednesday morning. These re-turns will be published in next week's issue of Tower Light. Also, local radio, and TV sta-tions will be notified of the re-sults and the local papers will likewise be informed. Members of the Young Re-publicans Club on campus were unable to arrange for Senator J. Glenn Beall to speak here at Towson due to his full sche-dule. Joseph D. Tydings, the Democratic nominee, was to have spoken yesterday after-noon. Frosh Tests Scheduled For February 1 Freshmen who entered Tow-son in September of this year are required to participate in the 1964-65 Freshman Testing Program which is scheduled for Monday, February 1, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. This date is the day before registration for the second semester so no inter-ruption of classes will occur. The Freshman Testing Pro-gram will consist of the writing, mathematics, social studies, and science tests of the Sequential Tests of Educational Progress (STEP). This program assists both the student and the faculty in at-taining a more accurate profile of the scholastic development of the individual student and the entire freshman class. Results of the tests should be available to students by the middle of the second semester. Additional information will be given prior to the test date. "
