Ancient and Mod'tr* Damascus
< ' ... 1
1 d ’•>
OLDEST AND NEWEST METROPOLIS: Damascus, capital of
Syria, one of the Bible Lands, is reputed to be the oldest con
tinuously inhabited city in the world but in some respects it is
among the most modern. The resident section, portrayed above,
is criss-crossed by broad boulevards, public parks, flowering gar
dens and gleaming new apartment houses. Not far from this scene
is the American Embassy. The city is being re-constructed along
modern lines but its ancient treasures are being preserved. Among
the sights of the older section arc the Biblical Street called Straight,
the House of Ananias and St. Paul's Wall. It was on the road to
Damascus that Paul saw a blinding light (Acts 9,3) and was
converted to Christianity.
Senior Class Play
Delights Crowd At
School Thursday
Cast Does Excellent
Job of Acting In Hi
larious Farce
Gould women realy handle the.
governmental affairs of our coun
try? Those who saw the play
“Ah! Men!” presented by the sen
ior class of Edenton Junior-Senior*
High School Thursday night would
definitely say no. However, our
State Senator Margaret Chase
Smith Would probably Say yes. But
our beloved Senator did not see
those poor frustrated women try
ing to straighten out the many
headaches that accompany a high
governmental position.
“Ah! Men!” was a farce, of
course, and a most unusual one to
say the least. It was thoroughly
enjoyed from beginning to end.
, The cast did an excellent job of
acting, particularly Estelle Stall
ings as Susan Betsford, a Senator,
and Faye Haste as Eleanor Z. Haz
litt, President of the United States.
Though intimate friends, these
two women were hitter enemies po
litically. The senator was opposed
to tin; president running for an
other term and did her best to up
sot the presidential campaign.
To get the gist of the story one
had to project himself into the
. 21st century where the women
. wore the pants and the men were
considered the weaker sex. As the
story unfolded it was plainly seen
that tlie women had l ml t ' l<> nffairs
i of the government in a messy state.
I Things might have worked them
selves out, however, if the presi-

John Chadwick of another country,
portrayed by Wayne Keeter. It
was then the president-realized’■she,
was a woman arid a very lonely one,
at that. The situation finally got
In hand when the men banded to

ed women to throw in the towel of
defeat.

of their appearance, was as fol
