Skidmore Tells Of Nuremberg Trials, Concentration Camps; Refutation* Column Recommends Plan Through Language For World Cooperation (ContinuedfromPageS, letters that clash; use good, When the United States post at Casablanca was being closed in August 1945, Naval Lieutenant (s.g.) Wlllard E. Skidmore, was up for reassignment. His records showed that he had knowledge of German and since the famed Nuermberg trials were in the process of preparation, he was transferred to Paris. There, alter tests to determine his fluency in the German language, he was assigned to the translation of documents, files, and records confiscated from Nazi offices. At present, Dr. Skidmore may be found in Room 11, Richardson, a far cry from Dachau. Outstanding, in the opinion of Dr. Skidmore, is the complete lack of regard for the individual as expressed in the documents that he translated. Forty volumes of records, seized from the office of the Governor General of Poland, show the policy making behind the atrocity campaign in that country. At the trial, this Governor made a statement that he never had been an anti-Semite, while In the translated records appeared a speech in which he declared that the some three and one-half million Jews in Stokes Releases Rules For College Calendar (Continued from Page I, Column lt) rooms priority will be given to those events which are most important to the college as a whole.

Ten students, representing different classes and varied interests were asked these questions during a News poll this week. As a result, a general cross-section of student opinion was obtained. Debate on the issue is scheduled to take place today. Several of those questioned reserved the right to withhold their "yes or no" until a f t e l &ucl1 ' debate. For convenience, the direct statements will be quoted: Lois Frescott '51, looked interested and said: "Considering the money spent on golf, bowling and such other sports and the number of their participants, it is a good investment, g j ' la ' ^ is building up her teams and intercollegiate rivalry will be important in the future. I would vote 'yes'." Another strong "yes" came from Joe Purely '51, as he said, "Any sport that brings the men out so that they have a good time is worth the expense!"

After recounting all these tales of horror and crime, Dr. Skidmore relaxed and with a tone of vast toleration continued, "I think there is a lot cf good in Germany yet. There is definitely good in their literature and philosophy of the pre-Nazi era of 100 years ago. The motivation for my return to teaching German was this belief in the fundamental good of Germany. "If the people of the world don't understand each other, there soon won't be any people. Language barriers should be eliminated." To get along with or to combat a people it is necessary to understand them, In their own language, thinks Dr. Skidmore.

Dr. Skidmore assisted with both German and a few French translations. Obscure points, upon which the conviction of various men rested, were sorted out of countless records and books. One group, a pictoral record of the atrocities of an S.S. raid on Warsaw, was condemning in itself. Medical experiments carried on at Dachau camp included tests of endurance, according to doctors' reports. Prisoners were subjected to tests of pressure changes simulating drops in altitudes, wet and dry cold tortures, and to inocculations of malaria for cure research. None of these persons was given a chance for survival. The interpreters were given ample opportunity to delve into the true core of Nazism. Dr. Skidmore has pictures of preserved human heads, and memories of human-skin gloves, pictures and book-bindings.

Therefore, students a n d faculty a r e invited; they will be sitting in t h e class—being the necessary "reacting a g e n t " in t h e dramatics laboratory. T h e first of these plays is a melod r a m a directed by George Kline '51. It is set. in a peasant hut where u "gruesome and cold-blooded murder •s committed."

Margaret Webster and her Shakespearean Troupe a r e scheduled to present "Julius Caesar" on Monday afternoon, October 24, a t 2:30 p . m . in Page Hall auditorium and " T h e T a m i n g of t h e Shrew" at 8:30 p.m., u n d e r the auspices of Dramatics and Arts Council. T h e play is being presented in modern dress, not as a publicity s t u n t or in an effort to improve on S h a k e s peare, but only to try to interpret Shakespeare's thinking in terms more familiar to us, The idea of a Shakespearean Road Company developed because of Miss Webster's desire to bring "live" theater to t h e small communities from coast-to-coast. Early in 1947, she wrote to 500 colleges asking if they would be interested in the Shakespearean type of drama, and what plays they would like to Finance Board Requests Dues Mary Eade Til.

Armed with these responses Miss Webster negotiated with Sol Hurok, who agreed to back t h e tour. In September, 1948, this unusual cavalcade embarked on a successful career. T h i s year's trip will i n clude some 30C performances in 34 states. T h e bare facts make it seem t h a t the cast is basking in the lap of luxury, but there certainly were plenty of snags in last year's tour. For instance, at one college t h e company had to play " M a c b e t h " in a converted B-29 hangar, without stage, proscenium, or dressing rooms. Even t h e washing facilities were half way across t h e campus in the Music building. T h e back a n d side curtains were composed of pieces of material, strung, nailed er Pinned together somehow. At various intervals during the performance, t h e audience caught generous glimpses of t h e T h a n e s of Scotland in various stages of undress, with their costumes laying on the e a r t h en floor because there Just was no place to hang them. And we complain about our State College stage and facilities! Admission to the plays is dirt cheap. In fact, its absolutely free to one performance if you have your S t u d e n t Tux ticket. However, if you h a p p e n to want to see both plays, you will have to pay $1.20 and $1.80 in the afternoon, or $1.80 and $2.40 in t h e evening. Tickets will be on sale outside t h e Commons starting Monday. On Monday and Tuesday only, tickets lor "Julius Caesar" will be sold. On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday tickets will be sold for " T h e T a m ing of the Shrew." Psi Gam's Redecoration Features Peppermint Room Willi cries of "Hide thai bucket of paint."
