MOSCOW, Oct. 21 (
Khrushchev, calling
lor a summit meeting, urged
today that the United States
stay its hand in the Cuban
crisis to quench the threat ol
thermonuclear war. The Soviet
Union will take no reckless decisions, he said, hut will act if
the United States carries out
"piratic actions."
"As long as rocket nuclear
weapons are not put into play
it is still possible to avert war,"
he said.
"The question of war and
peace is so vital that we should
consider useful a
meeting in order to discuss all
problems which have arisen, to
do everything possible to remove the danger of unleashing
a thermonuclear war."

Although the play touches on the fantastic, Ray Smith, designer
of the sets, has approached the design problem with a realistic attitude. The major problem will be the fast scene change from a Victorian library to a reception room of an institution.
To accomplish the transformation of the stage from one scene to
another, the technical device of a wagon is being employed. Smith

Victorian set behind it.
Smith said an attempt will be made to use three dimensional
effects rather than painted shadows. Shadows, woodwoik, and molding-wilbe real and will not be created with a paint brush or spotlight.
Guignol's cast will include not only students but also members
of the community interested in theater work.

Khrushchev's comment came in
a message to Bertrand Russell.
British philosopher who had sent
a message to the Soviet leader appealing to him "not to be provoked
by the unjustifiable action of the
U.S. in Cuba." Russell also sent a
a message to President Kennedy
culling the U.S. quarantine action
a threat to human survival and
urging him to "end this madness."
The Khrushchev reply did not

accused the U.S. government of
hatred of the Cuban people and of
"election campaign considerations."

There was no immediate reaction from the State Department
in Washington. One source said
no conclusion should be formed
from Khrushchev's words until it
was known how Soviet ships
would meet the U.S. naval blockade.
The Defense Department announced today that some Soviet
Bloc vessels which had been moving toward Cuba "appear to have
altered course."
In the message broadcast by
Moscow Radio, Krushchev said the
Soviet Union will take no reckless
decisions or "be provoked by unwarranted actions of the United
States."
"We will do everything in our
power to prevent war," he said.
Khrushchev used these words in
calling for Washington to reserve
itself on the quarantine:
"The Soviet government considers that the government of the
United States must display reserve
and stay the execution of its piratical threats which are fraught
with the most serious consequences."
"We fully realize," said the
statement, "that if war should
break out that it would be a nuclear war from the very first hours.
This is very dear to us. Hut evidently it is not clear to the gov
