Rain, rain, rain and more rain,
that was Homecoming 1968. The
only event not honored by the
dreary weather was the concert
and coronation of the queen.
The crowning of the 1968
Homecoming Queen was rather
impromptu due to the fact that
Paul Anka had planned to omit
intermission. Mrs. 'William T.
Anderson of Huntsville,
Alabama, Alumni Queen, led the
coronation procession, SGA
President, Byron Wyndham
announced the second runner-up,
Miss Judy Youngblood, spon
sored by Sigma Phi and first
runner-up. Miss Johnnie Bissette,
sponsored by Delta Sigma Phi.
The climax of the ceremony was
the crowning of Miss Elvyn
Seymour, 1968 Homecoming
Queen. Miss Seymour was
sponsored by Alpha Sigma Phi.
Paul Anka presented a superb
form to be filled in and returned.
The advisor will turn in the forms
at the end of each day. Seniors
will be given first priority in
these sessions, followed by
juniors, sophomores and fresh
men.
Dec. 3 and Dec. 4, students will
report to the registrar’s office to
fill in class cards. Registration
will be canceled if cards are not
filled in by Dec. 4.
The spring semester statement
tees will be mailed in December
and will include a copy of the
class schedule.

he is truly an artist. Songs
ranging from his hits “Diana”
and “You Are My Destiny” to the
theme from “The Longest Day”
kept the audience alert and ap

a new song which he presented at
a Brazilian song festival where
he won several awards. A
grateful ACC audience rewarded
him with three standing ovations.

“Is there anything new under
the sun?”
So began William Glenesk’s
address Tuesday on “The New
Morality.” Glenesk, minister of
the Spencer Memorial Church in
New York City, feels that the new
morality differs from the old in
that it extends to all phases of life
instead of just the sexual
question. Today, people tend
more and more to judge moral
questions on the basis of what
they believe to be right rather
than on the moral standards set
by the community at large.
“We hve in a mosaic of
morals,” Rev, Glenesk stated.
“There are no simple, easy an
swers, no ready guide or law that
is ‘just there.’ We must now make
our own decisions as to what is
morally right. Traditional codes
are cracking and we are now
reassessing what it is to be good,
to be loved, etc.”
Questioning Era
Glenesk believes that this
generation is a questioning
generation. They are moving
away from the idea that to know
the good is to do the good.
Education, he believes, is not the
key to virtue, but the beginning of
the problems to be faced in our
times. The new morality will not
let us blame our environment or
our genetic heritage for our
failures. It forces us to take the
responsibility for our actions,
right or wrong.
In a question and answer
session in the Case Art Building
Tuesday afternoon, Glenesk
attacked the traditional forms of
worship. “Christianity was
founded on a table and a supper,”
he declared. “You don’t put your
people in the audience in long
hard pews with the food in front.
Held In Place
The churches are designed to
hold the people in their place. It
sets them back and makes them
organizations presented their
exhibits during the morning. The
college concert band and the
chorus entertained the
homecoming audience. Open
house provided a chance for the
alumni to reminisce and com
plain about how bad they had it.
It also provided an opportunity
for current students to complain
about the food, the dorms, the
weather or any other topic that
came along. The homecoming
“parade” was enjoyed by all and
was another source of complaint.
The basketball game between
ACC’s fighting Bulldogs and the
Campbell Camels ended with a
narrow edge for the visitors.
During the halftime ceremonies
awards for the exhibits were
presented. Phi Mu won the award
in the sorority division for their
“French Sidewalk Cafe.” The
fraternity division was won by
Sigma Phi Epsilon for their
exhibit, “Halfway to
Brotherhood.” The Junior Class’
“An Old Fashion Medicine Man
Show” recieved first place
honors in the class and clubs
division.
That was Homecoming 1968.
an audience rather than a
congregation.” He also stated
that the educational system of the
church needs to be updated,
perhaps by bringing in speakers
to talk on various subjects to an
adult group. On this same theme,
he applauded the required
courses in Biblical history (“No
man is educated if he knows
nothing about the Bible.”) but

New Art Exliibit
Is Being Shown
An exhibition of pamtmgs,
prints and ceramics by Grove
Robinson, a young Raleigh artist,
is now being shown in the gallery
of Case Art Building.
A native of Asheville, Robinson
received the B. A. and M. F. A.
degrees from Columbia
University. He studied painting
m Pans in 1958-59 on a Fulbright
Fellowship. He is now an in
structor in art at Meredith
College, a position he has held
since 1965.
The prints in the show are both
lithographs and etchings. A
ceramic piece incorporates an
unusual use of feathers. The
ideas for his paintings were
stimulated by the artist’s interest
in a book entitled, “Color and
Your World,” by Faber Birren.
Proctorships Open
Any junior or senior desiring to
be considered for a proctorship
during spring semester, 1969 is
advised to contact the secretary
of the Dean of Men. An ap
pointment for an interview will
be made at such time.
