String Quarfet
Performs Here
A REVIEW
By DR. J. A. SLECHTA
A string quartet of local musi
cians, including Derry Deane and
Roger Drinkall, who recently per
formed at Charlotte College as the
Deane-Drinkall Duo, presented a
program of string quartets Wednes
day, Feb. 24, in the Library Audi
torium. In addition to the Drinkalls,
Elaine Richey performed on violin,
and Sarah Slechta on viola.
The opening Quartet-Satz of Schu
bert was played crisply, yet with
the requisite undertone of Schuber-
tian melancholy.
The Debussy quartet which fol
lowed reflected beautifully the
sheen of harmony intended by the
composer, and showed the work
for the gem of chamber-music thait
it is.
The Richey, String-Quartet No. 1,
previously performed at Davidson
College, is a work, modern in its
freedom, yet staying well within
the familiar range of harmony and
rhythmic patterns. It was perform
ed quite suitably in a manner
slightly impersonal, but still flex
ible.
The quahty of the quartet was
most happy, in spite of the absence
of what would seem to be the most
promising acoustical conditions.
In fact, though musicians may be
slightly uncomfortable in the dry
sound of the auditorium stage, the
effect is most satisfactory to the
audience.
It might be hoped that the quar
tet might be heard again, and even
that the college, taking advantage
of the presence of such musicians
in our community, might see the
possibilities of a resident quartet
as part of a music program that
we hope will not be too long de
layed.

The Charlotte College bowling
team will end its season at the
Dixie Conference tournament to be
held at Charlotte's Coliseum Lanes,
Saturday, March 6.
The ’49ers have experienced a
rather dismal regular season, fin
ishing sixth in the six-team Con
ference. They haven't completely
lost hope, however, for they are
pointing for a few upsets when the
chips are down next Saturday.
Lettermen Ernie Boyoucas, Ken
Sloop, and Bob Alexander, plus
first-year men Ed Hemmle, Scott
MacMillan, George Beck, Jim
Short, Dicky Helbein, and David
Hollifield feel that they definitely
still have a chance for victory.
Most of their hopes resit upon the
shoulders of high scorers, Bouy-
oucas and Hemmle, the two who
have sparked the team all year.
Ernie Bouyoucas says, “We
haven't won many matches, but
we've always shown up.” The team
figures that maybe if they show up
Saturday they can win a match,
too.
of Tommy Gilliam, Wally McGint,
and Charhe Jacobs.
Charlotte started slowly as they
committed numerous mistakes in
the opening minutes of play but re
cuperated and took command and
stayed there for the entire game.
St. Andrews played a man-for-man
defense and the 49ers picked it
apart with short jump shots and
lay-ups.
The 49ers held a 13-point halftime
lead at 46-33 and St. Andrews never
got closer than seven the rest of
the way. Charlotte built up a 19
point spread midway through the
second half only to see it cut to
14 points before time ran out.
Gilliam led Charlotte with 24
points followed by McGinty and Ja--
cobs with 22 and 20 respectively.
Jimmy James was also in double
figures with 11 points.
Benny Brockwill put on a display
of hot shooting as he pumped for
33 points to lead St. Andrews. Lar
ry Taylor added 17 points in the
losing cause.
