INVOCATION
Now you have been unseminared. Some, seminary-like ones, would object saying
that the sacred seed of seminar has been aborte d, has been sacrileged. But we
mainta in that the semen of the true will not be diss eminated here tonight, but
will be nurtured in its comic mask. Sprin~ is the oomio s eason. Nature puts on an
exuberant, arrogant show. Tonight we seni or s hope to bloom a nd share merriment with
our friends.
TRIAL BY JOHNNY
A dramatic Cantata in One Act
Scenez The King William Roo m furn i ~ he d for a Senior Oral. The Examining
table faces the audience. The seat of the Chairaan of the Committee
faces the audience. A chorus of tutors behind the table. Chorus of
Johnny Women at the right. Chorus of Middies at the Left.

GENE: Fans, ~e have a great seminar for you tonight. Tonight's reading (producing book) is ••• .READ; WRITE, AND SPEAK fRENCH and Kant's Critique of Pure
Reason! (more wild applEiuse, signature , theme, etc . )
But before we start the old ball rolling, it ' s time to introduce our special
guest star. And here he is, former president of flashback film Company, author .
of "famous Executors ·I have Known" , presen.tly doing ti111e in t he U.S. Senate,
Senator Bell N. H
owl !
(lllore wild applause, foot sto111ping _, etc. with appropria t e si gna. Enter Sena tor
carrying two straw ha ts and two c anes , gives one of eac h t o Gena , and the two
go off into a vaudev eille routine based on Kant ' s firs t c r itique.)
SENATOR: Hey Gene!
GENEt Yaa Senator!
SENATOR: What do you call a critical philosopher with a 111alfunctioni ng pancreas?
GENE: I don't know, Senator, what do you call a critical philosopher with a
malfunctioning pancraase7
SENATOR: A transcendental diabetic!
GENE: Hey Senator!
SENATOR: Yeah, Gene!
GENE: What do you call a critical philosopher who puts you to sleep?
SENATOR: I don't know Gene, what do you call a critical philosopher who puts
you to aleep?
GENEr A transcendental anaesthetic!
And now it's ti•a for SEIINAR Of THE AIRI
{Sanator takas seat at tabla. The tabla cont ains two ta .. e, one · rad end one bl•s ,
disti ngu ished by color of coatu•as, one on each side.)
�~ Before we begin, let' s review what the assignment is: Starting at page 77
in the second edition, read first two papragraphs, skip three lines, read next
four pages, skip to paragraph beginning "So what?" read next t~o sections,
o~itting ev e ry other sentence, rea d half of two paragraphs, tu rn
the book upsit do11n, cut out (produces scissors) ne xt t11o paragraphs, ROTATE NINETY DEGREES
AND · SIT ON IT!
•'
Did yo!J r e::::d it Blue team?
BLUE TEA~: No, Gene !
~ENE: Did vou read it , Red tea•?
RED TEAM : Read what, Gene?
GENE: may I have the opening quest i on please •••
(Enter chick in sequined bathing suit, carrying pillow on which is a top hat
containing sealed envelopes. Gene selects one, opens envelope.)
And the best supporting actress in a musical adaptation of a Franz Kafka
novel is •• lhis is t he 11rong envelope! (selects and op ens another.) And the
opening question is •• What do you call a critical philsopher with a malfunct i oning
pancreas?
,
RED AND BLUE TEAMS: A tranbcendental diabetic!
GENE: I'd better sel~ct another.( Selects and opensanother envelope.)
"According to Kant, is, as Chase and Phillips say, "All life a tent?"
(All 1o. ~ ... oa rs o t tn a seminar begin talking at once. At one instant they
stop talk ing and begin si~ply moving their lips.)
VOICE: Ladies and Gsntlemen, we are experiencing difficulties in bringing
to you the aurlio pn~tion JF o~r program. We will, however, continue to bring
you the visual portion •. Pleasa do not adjust your set, except, perhaps, to
cha~:? the channel.
(Stage lights go off; theater in total darkness.)
Ladies and Gentlemen, we are experiencing difficulties in bringing to you
tha audio and visual portio ~~ of our program. We will, however, continue to
bring to you whatever is left of the progra~, which is to say, total darkness,
whic;., by the way, bears a strong resemblance to pure e priori intuition.
(Lights and sound come back on)
GENE: (blows whistle) And so ends Part I of SEMINAR OF THE AIR. For the Red
TeaM, six hypothetical cases; and for the Blue Team, three analogies and two
ref~rences to Qc~~~dary sources. Before continuing, let's hear from our sponsor.
SPONSOR: (Walks onstage
~ith
a large box): You know, many people, when asked,
"Did you sea the ehow last night?" respond, "I'd like to watch SEmiNAR OF THE
AIR, but it's in the sa~e time-slot es Petticoat Junctio~," Dr, " I'd lika
to watch SEMINAR OF THE AIR, but ~Y landlord told ~e that if I watched t~o more
seminars, I'd be liable to a room and board increase."
If you ;re one of these people, don't worry. We've developed an exciting •ay
to bring you all the action of Big League Semination into your own living
roo.. THE SEMINAR OF THE AIR HOME GAMEl II II
~ith the SE~INAR OF THE AIR HOME GAME, You pose the questions, You resolve the
paradoxes, You baffle your opponents. Why, in my house, it's already beaten out
Parcheasi and Dominoes. · In each game you receive (produces two fish bowls):
Two fish bo~ls containing rando~ topics. Just chooaa one from eech to deter~in~
· the opening question. For instance:(Choosing from one) Compere Aristotle's theory
of tragedy with (Choosing from the other) Conizzaro's theory of the atom. Or,
••• Leibnitz's definition of a plane surface with ••• Hobba 1 s view of political
society. Or, co•pare Augustine's theory of time •ith ••• Augustine's theory of
ti••· Thera's a toughie!
�You also get a li~t of approved Greek words, end 36 OBJECTS OF SENSIBLE
INTUITION. ( begins taking ashtrays out of box and satti~g them on sem~nar table.
Red and Blue Tea~s begin playing with them.)
And remember, the SEMINAR OF THE AIR HOME GAME is made out of durable plastic
and sells for only 129.95, batteries not included and void where prohibited by
law. And i f you •ant a vinyl roof ••• (Gene chases hi~ offstage.)
GENE: And now, it's time for Part II of SEMINAR OF THE AIR. {Man walks on
stage, with folding chair and megaphone. He is wearing a beret, and sunglasses,
and is obviously a director. following hi~ are three girls. Hs site do~~. ~~ c
speaks through the megaph one.)
GENE: What the hell do you think you're doing?
DIRECTOR This is studio~' isn't it? We're doing an episode of Pet ti coat
Junction!
GENE: Get out of here! (Chases the~ offstage. He returns, looks angrily at t he
seminar table.) Blue Team, put away that Parcheesi game!
Now, when we last left our discussion, we were discussing wheth~r or not •••
MEMBER OF THE RED TEAMi It seems to me that it would be very helpful here to
intrdouce the Greek concept of
•
GENE: That's the secret word! (Lights, buzzers. Large duck desc end s •ith er. velope.) And here's your prize (opens envalope and reads):
A year's supply of veal parmesianl
A pair of "his" and "her" vernier calipers!
The Reader s ' Digest condensation of the Syntopicon!
Congratulations!!
(Returning to the table) Now we were discussing whether or not •••
MEMBER OF THE BLUE TEAM: Well, suppose there were ten men on an island •••
MEMBER OF THE RED TEAM: That's your third analogy of the night!
GENE: He's right, you have to spend some time in the Penalty Box!
(Bailiff enters and leads struggling student to the chicken-wire enclosure .)
Now r .... bar , Blue Team,•you'ra playing
under-~anned ••
•
(Whistle heard offstage.)
It's time for the 10:00 pm question! (Turning to the audience) Every nigh t
at 10:00 pm, we like to ask a question which we believe will point out the
student's thinking in a new direction. A question ~ore general, more inclusive, focusing not so much on particular passages of the text, but on the
place of the book as a mhole in the great Western Trad iti on. may I have the
10:00 p~ quest i on, please?
(Chick in sequined bathing suit walks across stage, hands him a large envelope.
He sits down, the chick exits, he opens the envelope and reads.)
Does anyone have to go to the bathroom?
(All rise and stampede in the same direction offstaga((including the scorekeeper )),
trampling Gene's body in the process, Signature them.
