A junior history major, Wilson is ( J performing the two-a- ct play for an in- dependent study project under the supervision of Professor Marley. The play is based on Irving Stone's novel Clarence Darrow for the Defense. "I didn't go out and look for a one-ma- n play," Wilson said.

I'm not going to say it. The time of reckoning has come. The Collegian may have enough money in its account to provide the prescribed number of issues at four pages each; maybe not. It is not the fault of any one .person. Instead, blame for our financial condition rests primarily on the Collegian for beginning the semester in a big way, and on the Kenyon Subscriptions and Advertising Bureau for raising too little money during the summer. Student Council has done what it can and remains powerless to render any ad- ditional assistance. Student Activities fees can't, it seems, cover everything. Help now must come the The College, its friends and alumni. Too, we must try to help ourselves. Limiting the size of each paper reflects part of our effort to conserve. Letters to the Editor that exceed 300 words run the risk of being edited. Some regular features will appear less frequently; plans to include new creative content have been put aside. The reader will note that we have reduced our type size. The Collegian apologizes for this unfortunate turn of events. Remember the old addage, "it's quality, not quantity that THE KENYON COLLEGIAN encourages letters to the Editor. All submissions must be typed. The counts."
