Student To Hear Noted Baritone Paul Matthen To Appear At ACC February 14th The concert series at Atlantic Christian College thus far has been a very good one. The Guards men Quartette, which appeared In November, sang to a capacity audience and had a very fine re ception. Their program was well- done, especially the last few num bers, which were done in the "barbershop quartette" style. Attcndence at the second con cert by the State Colored Teachers College Choir was good, and the tholr gave an Interesting program of classical music. Including Clair de Lune, and some spirituals. The choir Is well-itnown. having ap peared in New York and on sev eral radio programs. On February fourteenth the concert committee will present Paul Matthen, a baritone who trained under Friederich Schorr of the Metropolitan opera. Mr. Matthen has appeared as soloist with the Boston Symphony, and has also sung with the Phila delphia Orchestra, The Dessof Choirs, The Cantata Singers, and The Motet Singers. He has been on the radio on the Metropolitan Opera Auditions, the Music ot Worship program, and the Strom- berg-Carlson Hour. It Is expected that Mr. .Matthen will give an ex cellent concert. The final concert of the series will be sometime In March, and will be given by a two-plano team. They will close this year's concert series, and It is expected that their program will be very Interesting. The four concerts this year will have been given by dif ferent types of artists in an effort to vary the programs, and >t is hoped that the last two concerts will prove as successful as the first two. History Of Publications On ACC Campus The first journalistic accomp lishment of Atlantic Christian College was riic Itiulliint, which was not the handbook we now hare, but rather a small booklet published quarterly; In Norem- ber, January, March, and May by ♦ he Student Publication t'ommll- tee Till- Kailiunt contained editor ials, short stories, poems, college happenings, ads, and various ar ticles on athletics, thereby help ing the students to exchange and create new ideas. I'lii' itadiant began In 1906 and continued till 1923 when publication was stop ped due too a lack of funds. The i'inc Kniii, our annual, was started about 1909 by C. .Manley Morion, whom students will re member as our Homecoming chapel speaker this year. It was under the capable leadership of .Mr. .Morton that the annual which he named The Pin** knot con tinued lo grow among the stu dents. Hut, like the Kadlant, due to a lack of funds, the annual was also forced lo be discontinued for several years. Thus until 1928 and *'29. the sihool had had no source of news except by word of mouth. At the first of the year. 1928, another staff was started with Uobert Grady as editor-in-chief. This time Ihe staff put forth a com bination of the annual and news- booklet and called 11 the Collet- late. It was started because there was not enough funds to support the annual and the paper, there fore The Colli-Kiale was published only once a year. This yearbook contained the pictures of the stu dents as well as the activities on campus for the year. Ity 1934 and '35. the funds were built up so that we were al lowed to publish both riie Pine Knot and The Colliiciate. The Pine Knot was the annual which we have now. The (‘olli'Kiate was continued but was now a monthly newspaper as it is today. The last pre war <'re, Wilson, North Carolina has beon i‘lt*clf(i tjueon of'INew otudents May.
