day, December 13, ^ nSahjOnjCi epresentative rRAVELERS of The Umbrell,, inutes Eat-In A HUT Ave. Dallas Clerks Back Down On Cop 9 s Paycheck Demand Bulletin Board BATTALION Friday, December 13, 1968 College Station, Texas Page 3 DALLAS <-^P) — Dallas police men passed the hat for $27.72 after they said the city demanded that amount Wednesday from the paycheck of a slain policeman. Floyd Knight, 23, whose wife is to enter the hospital Friday for the birth of her second child, was shot to death while on duty Sunday in a drive-in grocery holdup. He had his paycheck, which covered service through Tuesday, in his pocket. WHILE THE hat was going around, the Dallas Times Herald established a fund for Knight’s young widow, and other contri butions were being made. The newspaper’s day-old fund has more than $3,000. The City of Dallas called the paycheck matter a “clerical slip up.” “The request for the return of the money was just a routine matter,” said city Auditor Lynn Crossley. “Regardless of the sad ness of the thing, we can’t show on our records pay for a man after he is dead.” Crossley said, however, that if he had been notified by the clerical division, he would have first made an assessment of ac crued vacation pay for Knight and possibly absorbed the $27.72 in that fund. KNIGHT, a two-year man with a $600 a month salary, had $304.62 coming in vacation pay, Crossley said. Knight’s widow will receive $310 per month from the policeman’s pension fund plus $10,0000 from the state, and each child will get $160 per month until it reaches 21, Crossley said. He noted that Knight also had a $5,000 insurance policy with the police department. The $27.72 due the city was the net difference between the two days of unserved duty and the overtime due Knight computed with retirement fund and income tax withholding adjustments, as sistant city auditor C. F. Craig said. HE SAID policemen and fire men are paid two or three days in advance with the overtime pay estimated. City Manager Scott McDonald said the widow will not be re quired to pay the $27.72. He explained that if a city employe resigns and has already received his paycheck for time after the effective date of resig nation, then he is asked to return money for time not fulfilled.

FULLER Take eight Aggies Players, add an outstanding George Bernard Shaw satire, an<J st i r in flawless and innovative technical aspects. Mix in impressive costumes and sets and season with a director who’s new to the Guion stage. Simmer one we^k, lifting the lid once n night a t 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday. What’s the result? Well, it may not be quite the gourmet’s delight ns the cooks envisioned (Birector Robert Wenok promised his cast a “pro fessional” production), but neith er is it the fallen layer cake that emerged in th e “Trojan Wo men”, the deba. c l e that opened the Players’ seag^. “ARMS AND the Man,” as all Aggies and other literary co gnoscenti well known, is Shaw’s dissection of late-nineteenth-cen- tury foibles, including “romantic notions of military glory, preten sions to culture, and social stra tification,” as the program ex plains. The story centers on the family of an Eastern European military officer immediately after his army has won a typi cally farcical Eastern European war of the period, and on the changes that result when Blunt- schli, an officers of the de feated army, becomes a tempor ary addition to the household. OBVIOUSLY, much of the ef fectiveness of Shaw’s wit hinges on the portrayal of Bluntschli, the veteran foot - soldier who knows all about war. (The dif ference between experienced soldiers and the new one, he tells the daughter Raina, is that the old hands carry chocolate instead of bullets in their cartridge belts) and therefore isn’t thrilled by cavalry charges anymore. As the subtle and unassuming punctur- er of grand illusions and the VIET PROGRESS (Continued From Page 1) has no service facilities for re laxation. “I have committed $200 to buy Vietnamese language books for a library for this hospital. Also, the hospital has agreed to long range care of the books.” “Small amounts of the money will be left at several locations with our civil affairs people to use at their discretion but with the commitment that it be used for work with orphans,” said Libby. “The rest of the money will be given to another Aggie-Ex, Capt. Don Breland, chaplain, to use in the reconstruction of the Cu Chi area. This area has been the scene of particularly heavy fighting last summer.” Howard said that the “miss-a- meal, feed-a-multitude” might be tried again, if the students are for the project. Last year the Sbisa and Dun can dining halls were closed for one meal to raise money for Viet namese orphans. voice of realism, he must stand out in the somewhat absurd crowd without indulging in with ering sarcasm bom of cynicism. Unfortunately, George 'McCoy’s Bluntschli comes off a bit too subtly and unassumingly. His part seems more often recited than played, with the result that some of Shaw’s best lines never quite make it to the sur face. McCoy’s performance does gradually strengthen as the play progesses, however, and it should be noted that his Bluntschli is a likeable character who deserves to get the girl. This he does, of course. OTHER PERFORMANCES, in ascending order of their ef fectiveness, were those of: • Bruce McKenty, as a blunder ing Russian officer who lets his notions of upper-class respectabil ity obscure the obvious conceal ment of a fugitive Bluntschli be hind Raina’s curtain; • Irene Woodward as Catherine, Raina’s mother and the socially hyper-conscious dowager recog- nizeable even today, whose voice (and somehow even gestures) were a bit shrill; • Travis Miller as Petkoff, head of the family, convincing as the type of officer who can loaf all day watching Bluntschli draw up troop-movement orders for Petkoff’s troops and then ask “Is there anything else I can do?” • Marc Fleishman, as Sergius, the absurdly dashing young off icer, who shows quite a flair for Chatsworth Osbomish lines but occasionally falters; • Candy Yager, as Louka, the impertinent maid who somehow seems too good for Sergius, no bility and all, with who she is paired at the end; • Becky Ingram, as Raina, whose quaintly romantic notions and cloying niceties make Rebec ca of Sunnybrook Farm look like Bonnie Parker; • And James Weyhenmeyer, as Nicola, the conniving servant. It wouldn’t be fair to say he steals the show; as a well-sea soned Aggie Player veteran a- midst relative newcomers, it’s more nearly a case of having bought the show, with experience as legal tender. His performance overshadows the others to the point of causing us to wonder whether he couldn’t have been put to better use elsewhere—as Buntschli, maybe. But acting flaws have a way of working themselves out parti cularly toward the end of the week’s run, when harried stu dents are better able to pack Guion Hall. And those, after all, are the only flaws; superb light ing, music, sets and costumes keep the production within strik ing range of the professionalism Wenck seeks.
