Last Thusday and Friday
nights, the 27th and 28th of Oc
tober, Stage and Script of At
lantic Christian College present
ed Maxwell Anderson’s dramatic
play WINTERSET. The play, set
in the New York slums, delved

At the weekly meeting of the
Executive iBoard there was a dis
cussion cm renting a film of
(Siina at $125 per day. The film
has ibeen made available to the
college -and the iEtatertainment
committee is considering wheth
er or not to purdiase it.
iBetsy Nash, chairman of the
Entertainment Committee, re
ported on the activities ‘of this
committee. She stated that at a
least 10 movies will ibe presented
on campus this year by the SGA.
Under new business, A1 Cooke
and David Griffin presented a
humorous resolution to the Board
for their approval, in order that
tihe student foody can know the
contents and “importance” oif
this resolution it is printed be
low. lit reads:
■Whereas; this is October 31,
1%6, land
Whereas: we are children oif
God Almij^ty, the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit, and
Whereas: we ibow our heads
to that Power far above us, and
•Whereas: we as students of
Atlantic Christian College recog
nize that this is ,an educational
institution, and
'Whereas: aU education does
not consist of knowledge from
Literary editions, and
Whereas: we, as individuals
deserve the warmth, respect, and
generosity of each personage,
and
'Whereas: we believe in that
Grolden Rule “Do unto others
as you would have them do unto
you,” and
Whereas: on this 'night the
fuU moon is in flight, and
Whereas: we are the student
leaders on this eamipus, and
Whereas; we, as student lead
ers are cognizant of the prob
lems; desires, and affairs of this
student body, now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the executive
board of the situdent government
association that:
/Article I as Linus, we believe
in the Great IPmnpldn.
Article H al studeaits shall sit
out 'in the cornfield tonight bear-
into and laid bare the total
scope of human emotions. As the
characters’ lives .intertwined and
their emotions became pitted
against each other, the tragedy
and the potential of the human
situation was set forth.
The mood was emphasized by
the technical aspects of setting
and lighting. The setting was
excellent. Dirt clung to the walls
of the tenement house and to
the huge, coarse base of the
Brooklyn Bridge. Although writ
ten for two complete sets, the
divided stage allowed smooth
transition from one location to
another. Through the use of the
new light board, the scenes,
which were continuous in action,
blended into a unity. All of these
aspects created a receptive
frame of mind for the emotion
al contrasts and struggles of the
play.
The cast deserves commenda
tion for their presentation of this
stirring and meaningful drama.
Thursday night had a few rough
edges. For example, Jim Bur
roughs’ accent was difficult to
understand, preventing a com
plete grasp of the last scene.
Also, at times the full impact
of the emotions was not evident.
However, both of these faults
seemed to be corrected for Fri
day night’s performance. The ac
tors did a creditable job. In ad
dition to familiar faces Stage
and Script is lucky to have sev
eral promising freshmen. Upper
classman Robert Noble gave an
especially outstanding perform
ance as Judge Gaunt.
College Athletes
View Fellowship
On Thursday, October 27, a
breakfast was held by the Facul
ty Committee on Athletics to dis
cuss the formation of a Fellow
ship of Christian Athletes on the
Atlantic Christian campus. The
drive, which is led by Mr. Cloyd
and Chaplain Hensley, met in
the faculty lounge with interested
athletes. Reports were given by
Wayne Byrum and Ronnie Pace
who attended the National Con
ference of Christian Athletes at
the Blue Ridge Assembly last
summer.
The Fellowship of Christian
Athletes is a national movement
whose primary purpose is to
confront athletes and coaches
and through, them the youth of
the nation with the challenge
and adventure of following
Christ in the fellowship of the
church.
After the meeting, it was de
cided that another breakfast
would be held at 7:00 a.m. on
November 10. AU squad mem-
Larson Discusses U.N.
Seating Of Red China
rm._ xi— f 1 _ f»-x . TT . •< . ... .
The question of admitting Red
China to the United Nations was
the subject oif Dr. Nathan Lar
son’s address to the student body
during assembly on October 27.
Dr. Larson, Professor of Law at
Duke University, made it clear
that something urgently needs to
be done concerning this ques
tion. He said that with each
passing year more and more na
tions are voting in favor of seat-
inig (Red China, and it will not
'be long until the U. S. must
make up its mind about what
it is going to do.
His suggestion was that the
Dr. Winstead
Is Chairman
Dr. Elton D. Winstead has
been named chairman of the
Department of Mathematics at
Atlantic Christian College, ac
cording to Dr. Arthur D. Wen
ger, president of the college.
His appointment was confirmed
by the ACC Board of Turstees on
Oct. 26.
Dr. Winstead’s appointment
was made in
light of a di
vision of the
college’s
Department of
Science
and Mathema
tics. The de
partment was
divided into
two separate
depart-
ments due to Winstead’s
heavy demands placed upon the
college’s areas of science and
mathematics. Dr. J. P. Tyndall
will continue to serve as chair
man of the Department of
Science.
A native of Wilson, Dr. Win
stead joined the ACC faculty in
1962 following retirement from
a military career of 24 years’.
He received the A. B. degree
from Atlantic Christian College
and was awarded the M. Ed.
and Ed. D. degrees by Duke
University.
Son of Mr. and Mrs, Frank
J. Winstead of Wilson, he is mar
ried to the former Miss Jose
phine W, Minshew. They have
three sons Edward D., Ray L.,
and (}ene D., and a daughter
Sue S.

National Council of Teachers of
U. S, take the initiative and
propose the seating of Red China
on terms which we think are
right. He said the danger in not
doing this is that if we don’t.
Nationalist China 'may be thrown
out.
“The conceptual argument for
seating Communist China, said
Larson, is that the United Na
tions should be universal, and
that it is preposterous for al
most a fourth of the world’s
population to be in fact unrep
resented in a world organiza
tion.” However, this argument is
challenged by the statement that
Red 'China is not a “peace-lov-
img state.” He said the answer
to this is not to say Red China
is peace loving, rather to state
that she has already been
admitted and what is left is a
matter of credentials; “who is
China,” or “who is entitled to
represent China?” He also stated
that it iwould be difficult for the
major member nations “to speak
from a background of virginal
innocence in the matter of re
fraining from the use of force
in international affairs.”
Another argument against Bed
China’s ladmittance, which Lar
son stated was more serious,
is the feeling that it might dis
rupt the growth of the peace
keeping capability of the 'United
Nations at a time when the
Soviet Union and the U. S, are
beginning to show some ability
to cooperate in this task. How
ever, he also stated that the,
problem could be adequately
handled. He said that the real
question in this area is “whether
this ‘minus,’ a very real one,
is more than offset by some oth
er ‘plus’ that would flow from
the presence of Communist
