This was one student's opinion of what his parents had believed to be the proper method of preparing their son for a life long relationship with the church. Like so many worthwhile goals, religious training in the past seems often to have miss ed its mark, leaving a resent ful doubting-Thomas where it might have left a potential wing-sprouter. Almost every major Protes tant denomination in the Unit ed States is involved in a mul ti - million - dollar effort to develop new programs of re ligious education. Although religious training in a young person's life is meant to be an introduction A New DTH Series This is the first of a four-part series of articles by DTH staff writer Cindy Borden which will explore the transformation of today's religious endeavors in rela tion tn th needs of the college student. Watch for tins interesting feature this week in the Daily Tar Heel. SUNDAY 0 MONDAY M-G-M Presents on a Hoi' Tin Hoof STARRING ELIZABETH TAYLOR PAUL NEWMAN BURL IVES JACK CARSON -JUDflH ANDERSON in KETR0C0L0R 77 T -4e AN M-G-M RE-RELEASE ((I G ? -i z : i X "x J ' ( , h n.,i 1 ' to Christianity, an education in the life and principles of the church, and a preparation for Christian living, Sunday School consisted far too often, it seems, of discussions con cerning "dates, fashions, and dances." HERESY Or there was the other ex treme: "I was forced to mem orize the catechism, but wasn't allowed to ask ques tions. To deviate was heresy," reported one college student. And still another girl's com ment about her teen-age Sun day School days:. "I didn't learn anything about religion,, but I had a good time. We did a lot of necking at the par ties." Judging from these reports, the spiritual life of many a young person escaped the en richment it was to have gain ed during the "most wasted hour in the week." Just what went wrong? First, teachers were often mere baby-sitters, having no precise religious curriculum in mind, little training, and few adequate materials with which to work. Second, rather than losing the student's interest or fac ing irreverence, teachers of ten orientated their discussion t to that which was of particu lar interest to the students dances and fashions or foot ball and baseball games. Paul Hornung became a substitute for St. Paul. . Third, some parents asked nothing more of Sunday School than that it keep their children occupied for an hour. Fourth, the emphasis was put too often on memorization when material was studied. "If they memorize it and can repeat it, they have it learn ed" was the principle behind this. BAD PREPARATION A college professor was amazed and disturbed by the inferior preparation of young people in religion. "Students from all over the country en roll in our college," he said, "and they come to us with vir tually no knowledge of the Christian faith. Religiously they are in kindergarten." Steps, are being taken today to remedy this situation. A whole new approach to relig ion is in the process of de veloping. Religious leaders here at UNC are particularly con cerned with these new con cepts, and the following arti cle in this series will discuss just what, in their words, their present objectives are. BARN OFFERING The scene is from the Broadway comedy "Never Too Late," playing nightly except Mondays through Oct. 9 at the Raleigh-Durham Barn Dinner Theater. It shows the look that husband Harry Lambert played by Dave Poland rives when he learns that his wife Edith (Frances Isbell) is - . . . .... going to have a baby so late in ner ine.

But don't you , think the "swing and sway" concept will stick with students a lot better than what the average art historian, mired down in minutiae, would say? At 26, Mrs. de Grummond isn't too far from the days when she spent four years as a teen-aged disc jockey in her native Louisiana. She was in on the advent of rock V roll, and Elvis Pressley was big. She has made the transition from rock V roll to swing and sway rather neatly. MAKES ART ALIVE Mrs. de Grummond, who teaches Renaissance, Baroque and 19th century art at the University, makes art history come alive for her students. "Part of the problem is con cerned with 'what is art his tory?' " she said. "I don't their lives and ideas. "The work of art leads you to what you want to say about it. Ghiberti's doors become Art World By OWEN LEWIS more interesting when you talk abut the contest he won. Or you can see the Massac cio Trinity and talk about per spective," she said. Another way she livens up the course is by getting to know her students. "Real life is put into a class be cause of the exchange between the students and the profes sor, and not relying on the straight lecture," she said. The Baroque painting of the 17th century is Mrs. de Grum mond's main field of interest. "I think a lot of people think of the 16th century as the Golden Age, with people like Michelangelo and Raphael. But to me they're dull and still," she said. "The move ment and color in the Baro que paintings intrigue me." LATIN. GREEK In her further study and reT'. search, Mrsi de Grummond is interested in iconography, par ticularly in her favorite peri od. "My background in Latin and Greek come to the fore," she said. Her degree from LSU was in the classics, and she has taught in the field. "I get interested in the way paintings tell classical stories, and I go off to track down the narrative. Mythological paintings interest me more than the religious," she said. Mrs. de Grummond, the swinging art historian, swings a mean tennis racket too. In the five years she has been at Chapel Hill, she has con tended regularly in tourna ment tennis at the state lev el, and has been a district singles champion twice in the past two years. Mrs. de Grummond, in her first year of teaching art his tory, looks like a winner. changing qualities of the , American hro from James Fennimore to Gary Cooner."
