'Waltz of Toreadors' finishes run Jean Anouilh's "Waltz of the Toreadors" will conclude it's run here this weekend with performances set for Friday, Saturday and Sunday night in the Drama Lab. Curtain time is 8 p.m. and admission is $.50 for students with ASB cards and $1.50 for non-ASB card holders. Reservations may be made by calling the college drama department. The play which was awarded the title of "Best Play by a :foreign Author"
during its season on Broadway, tells a story on two levels of existence. One is the blustery, comic farce about a general who fancies himself quite the toreador with the ladies; the other, the bitterness and digust that he feels both towards himself and the hallowness of all his triumphs. Riotous comic cadenzas, and amazing husband-and-wife tug of wards mingle with elusive moments of spititual candor. The play, directed by Buddy Ashbrook,
with technical direction by Norm Gaskins, includes in its cast Joe Neglia and Shelley Smith as the general and his wife; Sandy Hume as Mlle. de SteEuverte; David Fennessy as Gaston; Carolyn Roy and Jo Ann Watkins as Sidonia and Estelle, the general's daughters; Tony Plumer as Dr. Bonfant; Sharon Menching, Gene Floyd, and Mary Vollmer, and Tina Sarno in supporting roles. Marsha Hunt and Scott Hicks are assistant director and stage manager.
WRA asks for budget increase By Tom Anderson Miss Mildred Ayers, spokesman for the Women' s Recreation Association, asked a financially plagued ASB to equal last year's budget at yesterday' s weekly council meeting in R-3 at 11 a.m. According to a copy of the ASB budget for 1969-70, WRA this ye ar received $1394 from the ASB against $1823 during 1968-69. In reply to the WRA request, Hank Pinto, ASB budget chairman, said that a fund was set aside to compensate for organizations that couldn't operate within their approved budget. Miss Ayers commented that the WRA was working from a budget that was similar to one they used eight years ago, and that expenses had greatly increased since that time. Council member Tim Messer noted that the ASB was already $40,000 in the red and that it had no guaranteed income. The budget reflects that the WRA, which participates in basketball, field hockey, softball, volley ball, badminton, bowling, golf and gymnastics, has no income. "I can see nowhere where we can come up with the requested $500," said ASB president Frank Mott.

Part of art sculpture missing A portion of one of the small component sculptures, an untitled piece by artist Tom Holder, in the current Drawing, Print and Small Sculpture Exhibit in the Dwight Boehm Gallery, is missing. "It is presumed that someone, student or non-student, thought it would be a c lever stunt to pocket a piece of sculpture," commented Boehm Gallery director Harry Bliss. "What the person in question is perhaps not aware of is that the school has a financial liability to the artist or owner for any art object either damaged or stolen while on display here," he said. Valued by the artist at $140, Bliss believes that the piece was stolen around Tuesday or Wednesday of last week. "Perhaps this person was so taken by the object that passion overcame his reason. More likely he or she regarded the work as fodder for their questionable brand of humor. "Unfortunately, resorting to larceny as a form of admiration or criticism can have sobering repercussions. The last person who 'borrowed' anartobjectfrom the Dwight Boehm Gallery was later appre hended, prose cuted, and received a r ather lengthy jail sentence. T he same legal c ourse of action will be taken against anyone e lse seen e ither damaging

Margalit Oved slated to dance here in January Margalit Oved, principal dancer of Israel's Inbal Dance Theatre, will appear at Palomar College January 12. Miss Oved has won acclaim in appearances from Tel-Aviv to Brussels, from Dublin to New York for the intensity and lyricism of 'her artistry as a dancer, singer and actress. When s he appeared in New York, John Martin, distinguished critic of the New York Times, noted: "Margalit Oved, as Deborah, has the emotional strength of a giant. . . . . How versatile this girl is . She can shift easily from the tragic vein to the most engaging of high comedy and to an equally appealing lyric mood. Her voice is a remarkable one for range and color and expressiveness and when she moves he r feet seem to be actually caressing the floor." In addition to worldwide tours with t he Inbal Theatre, Miss Oved has appeared in the award wi nning Israeli film "Hill 24 Doesn't Answer" as well as the c inerama production ''The Greatest Story Ever Told. " Folkways Record Company is soon to release her record " T hrough the Gate of Eden." Miss Oved was born in Aden, a British protectorate on the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula. Her family are direct decendents of the Hebrews who made their way to southern Arabia when t he Ki ngdom of J udea in Palestine was destroyed 500 years prior to the Christi an e ra. Aden and Yemen became the home for this group of displaced people there t hey waited for the Biblical prophecy to c ome t rue that someday they would be r estored to the Holy Land on the wings of eagles. ¡ T he pr ophecy came t r ue in 1949 when Globe masters flew to Aden from the new born s tate of Israel to return the Jewish communitie s of Yemen and Aden to the Holy Land. Tickets for the performance, which will take place in Room C-6 at 8 p.m . will c ost $1; 5 0 ~ for ASB card holders. Tickets may be purchased in advance.
