HEDDA GABLER is a remarkable
study of the character of a selfish,
hard-hearted woman, endowed with
beauty, good taste and culture, but
spiritually a monster. She is kept
from fully expressing her evil genius
only by cowardly fear of public opin
ion. Margaret Walker of Raleigh por
trays the title role of Hedda Gabler,
or really Hedda Tesman, with great
finesse. Her foil and final conqueror.

Judge Brack, is equally dramatic;
Brack is played by Guy Miller with
great subtlety. The other roles in
the play are almost equally import-
and, and the character of Eilert Lov-
borg, acted by James Barbour of
Radio Station WVOT, has become as
well known in the theater as Brack,
and indeed is the aim of many young
actors. Paul Wilson sympathetically
presents Jorgen Tesman, the schol
ar caught in a marriage to a through
ly incompatible mate. Hilda Griffin,
on our stage for the fu"st time, adds
charm and quaintness to the role of
Aunt Julianne, while Susan Puglia,
also a new member of Stage aand
Script and a freshman, shows great
promise in the character of Thea
Elvsted. Berte, the family servant,
played by Mary Lu Webb makes
more real the life of the small town
and the family.
The play takes place in Norway
in the early 1900’s. Costumes and
settings represent the period and
complement the atmosphere of the
play. Ibsen begins his action near
the climax and moves quickly
through two days and a night to a
very startling climax. The play be
gins with a golden morning in Sep
tember in the house of Jorgen Tes
man and his young bride, Hedda,
The Executive Board received
and unanimously accepted the fol
lowing petitioned nominations for Co
op offices: Sally Forbes, day student
representative; Patricia Neal, co-op
treasurer. The Board received a de
cline as candidate for Pine Knot edi
torship from Jen-y Ridling. The
board decided to approach the Pub
lications Committee to submit a
name(s) of qualified persons as can
didates for yearbook editorship.
Mr. Robert Stone presented a res
ume of the recent Peace Corp Con
clave at the University of North Car
olina. Mr. Stone and Miss Palsy Hall
attended this conference as official
participants representing Atlantic
Christian College. Any student desir
ing further information on the Peace
Corps is invited to approach either
Mr. Stone or Miss Hall on this sub
ject.
The Dead Week committee pre
sented the following procedure for
Dead Week: Dead Week will be ob
served during the middle week of the
fall and spring semesters of each
academic year. Dead Week will be
gin on Monday at 8:00 A.M. and con
clude on Friday at 12:00 P.M. During
this period, no extra-curricular ac
tivities will be held by any ACC
student organization. Except for in
tercollegiate athletics, no non-aca
demic events involving student par
ticipation may be scheduled.
This new interpretation of Dead
Week shall be placed in the statute
books and given full explanation in
the Bulldog Pulbication. Miss Peggy
Bivons introduced the motion that
the Constitution be amended by add
ing the phrase that “The Executive
Board shall govern and enforce the
policies of Dead Week.”
