Gilman viewedmany of these forms as attemptsto compete with film, but becauseof that art form's technical andsensuous superiority he foundtheir success to be only partial.The success of drama, Gilmanmaintained, rests on the "livecummunion" shared betweencomactors and spectators,munion that results from theartistic blending of the poetic andthe physical."Language is never finished,never secure" Gilman stated,and through the reevaluation oflanguage and for that matter allof drama, Gilman expressed ahope that theater will revive andflourish.alcAC revives Folk FestivaltttttFor info call 5389 before Sat., April 3rd.tipoetry and anti theater."The period of modern drama,beginning with Ibsen, marked achange in which drama came torely more heavily on language,Gilman said. He . described,modern playwrights as beingfirst and foremost writers, withthe consequence that in theirworks language is not merely"illustration or a guide to events,but a creation in itself." The"triumph of modern drama"then, according to Gilman is aresult of the resurrection oflanguage and the subordinationof linear plot. He remarked thatthe works of the "absurdists"Ionesco and Beckett is oftenresolved into "pure language."At the present time, Gilmanstated, the fate of language hasentered a new arena.

Business ManagerNOTRE DAME,IND:IAN I-· · , 1I'VThe Merger's a Good ThingBoth in implication and in execution the long-awaited and long-overduemerger of SMC Student Services and ND Student Union organizations is aboon to the students. The implication, of course, is that merger of studentgovernments is just around the corner. The execution promises both atrimming of self-defeating duplication and a further SMC involvement inthe vital social functions Student Union controls.Now that Student Union will cease to be Notre Dame Student Union theUnion will have to end its Notre Dame orientation. That termination' willbe particularly important if social activities-become small-scale, as theyhave shown tendancies to do in the past and as indeed they must do if theUnion is to be responsible to our social desires.That trend towards diminitude-towards Over-the Hill concerts andtheir :mccessors, towflrds hall social functions, and away from thegra.ndwse-and .expensive-ACe concerts that have characterized everysocia season smce the ACC was constructed-puts very special demandson this mewly-merged Union. The Union must make sure that the newsocial functions can appeal to both campuses. Both campuses have madeit known that the informal atmosphere of a hall get-together is infinatelypreferable to the large hoop-do-doo of a-say-Grand Funk Concert. Thenew commission is charged, then, with making this kind of function aregular thing.Such a move would not be inconsistent with President-elect Barkett'scampaign promise to direct money back to the halls· nor would it be at allinconsi[stent with good sense and practicality. Th merger was a goodmove; the merged Student Union must move well now to assure itsusefullness.LettersEditor:Last Saturday night at ashowing of Bresson's Pickpocket,we and our friends weredisturbed throughout the entirefihn by the college childrensitting behind us. The inanity oftheir remarks and the totalinappropriateness of theirresponses were clear proof thatthey lacked the depth, the perceptiveness, the maturity, and,one fears, the intelligence, tohave any idea of what was goingon in the film. Bresson's films areinward, quietly composed thingswhich use very little music ordialogue and much empty screenwork and silent nuance.However, since there were noorgies or nude scenes in thisparticular film, and not even anyrock music, its significance wasbeyond theobiously farcapacities of the part of theaudience sitting near us. It occurred to us that a better introduction might have awadenedthe interest and understanding ofthese students. We would havegiven a pitch something like this:Everybody who really knowsabout these things realizesthat Bresson was a filmmaker far ahead of his times.Although this film was made way back in the 50's, it isactually about a super-doolcharacter who is stonedthroughout the entire. movie!K.k'vi There is Another ViewThe eV()r mounting enthusiasm over co-education has reached itsdw·ing the past few weeks he at Notre Dame. Amid popularbackmg of strong '!lands and petitions aimed at obtaining official onse!l from Admimstrators, consider two questions. First: Whatmeqwbts or faults are inherent within the present co-exchangestructure? And second: How does co-education remedy these imperfections?After gathering together all that has been said by proponents of thechange, we can list their reasons as the following: social life oneampus needs eonsiderable improvement; Notre Dame males lack aproper understanding of the female· and a campus should resemblethe outside workd, i.e. one of a hetero exual nature.According to these same students it can easily be shown that with coeducation, a ) soc a.llife is improved, b) each sex can more easily learnabout th disp.osihon and mental attitude of the other, and also c)c:ampus life wlll be more representative of the world that college issupposedly preparing the student for.Logical? Not really, since the case for co-education has neverhonestly ?ealt with why the co-exchange program is inherently harmful. For If the problem,. once decided, can be corrected within thestatus quo arrangement, then co-exchange is not the villain but ratherthe problem itself is.'Now our immediate concern is
