...scene descriptions. And there is a steady parade of gimmicks and odd bits of business, borrowed from such sources as the plays of Brecht, Genet's The Balcony, and the Living Theatre's Mysteries and Smaller Pieces. Kahn is, like Autolycus in The Winter's Tale, a 'snapper-up of unconsidered trifles." He has seen a lot of theatre, he is young, and he is eager to try out a lot of ideas for himself.

It built dormitories, even using bricks salvaged from the rubble of the Soviet embassy, which had been hit by Russian bombers at the outset of the Russo-Finnish Winter War. Student "commandos" raised money by persuading engineering executives and 6,000 alumni to donate. Today, the union's dorms and cafeterias do a $1,700,000-a-year business and provide temporary jobs for scores of students. Together, the three student unions have a fulltime payroll of 1,000, including...
