Local Singers
To Perform At Game
The Barbara Berry Singers of
Wilson have made their first
recording. “Restless”, an
original rock spiritual by Dr.
James Cobb and “The Song is
Love”, a Peter, Paul and Mary
Song were released this past
week on the Kriket lable.
The singing group, composed
of Barbara Berry (originator of
the ensemble) Carol Blake,
Barbara Cobb, Anne Givens, and
Marsha Jones began singing
four years ago when they
prepared a program for a local
civic club. Their musical
^ckgrounds range from voice
3nd piano majors at Flora
MacDonald College and
Greensboro College to choral
^nging at UNC-CH, Atlantic
Lriristian, and Duke. All this
Comes through now in singing,
accompanying and arranging
their own songs. They use
guitars, piano and percussion,
and on the record are assisted by
drums and bass. Baroque
Studios in New York cut the
record after hearing the group
and finding out about
“Restless”.
“We are extremely excited
about our first recording and
hope everyone who hears it will
enjoy what we have done. The
songs we chose are especially
appealing to young people. They
also give us the opportunity to
try some of the sensational new
sounds which are so refreshing
in todays music,” said Barbara
Berry.
Students will have a chance to
hear the Barbara Berry Singers
at half time of the Elon-ACC
basketbal game Saturday night,
and can buy the reocrd of
“Restless” in the ACC
Bookstore. Featured soloist on
both sides of the record is
Marsha Davis Jones, a former
Atlantic Christian College
student.
NUMBER FIFTEEN
Peace Pilgrim
Visits ACC
Last Friday, to the delight and
enjoyment of many faculty
members and students, Peace
Pilgrim, a silver-haired woman
who in the past 19 years has
walked well over 25,000 miles for
world peace, made her second
visit to our campus. Her last
visit to ACC was in the Winter of
1970.
While on campus. Peace
Pilgrim spoke to a number of
classes and to a very large
gathering of students and
faculty members at 10 a.m. in
Hines Hall. She addressed
herself to the crucial issues
which she feels are facing the
peoples of the world. She ad
monished her listeners to
“awake from our lethargy and
push firmly and quickly away
from chaos because unless we do
take action, all that we cherish
will be destroyed in the
holocaust which will descend.”
On the subject of peace, she said
one of our first priorities must be
to overcome evil with good, and
falsehood with truth, and hatred
with love.”
Peace Pilgrim set out on her
“walk” in 1953 with the vow to:

Faculty
Discusses
Parking
The faculty and staff of
Atlantic Christian College held
their regular monthly meeting
last Wednesday and according to
Collegiate sources there was
quite a bit of debate and
discussion regarding campus
parking. Several professors
argued that faculty members
shouldn’t have to pay parking
fines. Dr. Wenger, however,
stated that if students have to
pay the fines so should faculty.
One faculty member contended
that ACC provides the faculty
with inadequate office space,
inadequate classroom space and
that the least the college could
do is to provide adequate
parking space for its employees.
Bloodmobile
The Redcross Bloodmobile
will be on campus March 1, 2
and It will be stationed in
the lobby of Hackney Hall.
Parental permission slips to
donate blood are not required
this year as long as the in
dividual is 18 years of age or
older. Food and beverages
will be available to the donees.
All members of the college
community are urged to
participate in this life-saving,
life-giving program.
Changes For
Women Proposed
B\ ,I1M ABBO n
The Student Life Committee
met Feb. 17 and made several
recommendations for changes m
women's regulations. Among
the changes proposed were
extensions of freshmen
curfew hours to 10 p.m. Mon.,
Tues., Wed. and Thurs. niuhts;
and to 12 midnight on Fri., Sat
and Sunday. I( was also moved
that first semester freshmen
women be permitted to receive
blanket permission.
The major changes recom
mended by the committee affect
the housing codes which
currently exist on campus.
These changes deal primarily
with those sections of the
housing code pertaining to
visitation in off campus apart
ments. Recommended for
deletion was the paragraph
which states: "Visitation by
members of the opposite sex is
allowed in bachelor apartments
(men's and women's) between
the hours of 6 p.m. and 11 p.m.
upon receipt of parental per
mission for students. Non
student women have the same
visitation rights as students."
Dean Ward in explaining the
change to the members of the
committee said that realistically
it is impossible for the college to
enforce this regulation so rather
than 1h‘ hyptK'ritical, il would be
in the best interest for the
college and students to change
the rule.
Dean Whitehurst felt that this
would be a difficult rule to
change l>ut he noted that he
didn't know how the school could
cimtrol what goes on in the
private homes (apiirtments) of
students.
Another area of proposed
changes dealt with the
prerogative of all students to live
off campus when college housing
is full, including freshmen
women. .Mr. Daniell predicted
that it would lx‘ unlikely that
many underclassmen women
would have to find off campus
housing.
