The unrestricted funds may be

designed to supplement the
normal book acquisition budgets
of the participating institutions.
In addition to its unrestricted

programs. The Sears-Roebuck
Foundation, during the current
year, will invest more than
$1,100,000 in a variety of other
education activities, the
spokesman said. This will bring
the budgeted education ex
penditures of The Sears-

Art Display
WILSON, N.C. — A show of
watercolors and graphics from
the permanent collection of
North Carolina National Bank is
now being featured in the main
gallery of Case Art Building at
Atlantic Christian College.
They are major works of art
by North Carolina artists and
have been purchased in the last
few years along with other
works in the banks permanent
collection.
The artists include Don
Sexauer of Greenville, Claude
Howell of Wilmington, Jill Flink
of Raleigh, Stephen White of
Carrboro, A1 Fincher of
Charlotte, Gerald Jonson of
Greenville, John Stewart of
Greensboro, Don Harris of
Durham and Norbert Irvine of
Wilson.
The exhibition will continue
through Nov. 29. The gallery is
open to the public on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, 10 a.m. -
5 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday,
12 -5 p.m.; and Tuesday, 7 - 9
p.m.
The annual fall meeting of the
Board of Trustees met on
Wednesday, October 24. By a
resolution passed by the board in
May of 1969, theSGA president is
an ex-offico member of the
entire Board of Trustees. At the
Education Committee meeting
Wednesday morning, 1
presented a resolution to the
committee concerning dor
mitory visitation. After ex
tensive debate, it was decided
that the bill could not be voted on
until it had passed through the
Student Life Committee and the
Administrative Council. The
reason this procedure had not
been followed previously was
that this issue had already been
passed by these committees two
years ago. But the Trustees
ruled that this years proposal
had not been voted on by the
proper channels, therefore they
would be overstepping their
bounds if they acted on it.
However, the Board of
Trusttes did alleviate the
problem somewhat by granting
the Executive Committee (he
power to act on this issue as soon
as it is passed on from the Ad
ministrative Council. This is a
time advantage because the
Executive Committee of the
Board of Trustees meets
monthly whereas the entire
board meets only three times a
year with their next scheduled
meeting being in February.
As I have stated, the Student
Life Committee and the Ad
ministration Council passed
visitation two years ago so there
is no reason why they should
hesitate in passing it this time
unless they just want to keep it
from the final say of the
Executive Committee of the
Board of Trustees.
TheSGA Executive Board met
last Tuesday night and voted
unanimously to send the
following bill to these previously
mentioned committees.
The Students of Atlantic
Christian College request the
approval of the Student Life
Committee to be granted a trial
visitiation beginning the
weekend of January 11-13 until
February 1-3. After this trial
period has concluded further
continuation along with any
alterations will be decided upon
by the Administrative Council of
Atlantic Christian College.
The guidelines suggested are
as follows:
Walkathon
Scheduled
The Youth Division of the
United Fund of Wilson County
will hold a Walk-a-thon, Dec. 1,
at 10 a.m., starting at the Wilson
Recreation Center for a 10-mile
hike.
The Youth Division is walking
for character building, cystic
fibrosis, the mentally ill, the
retarded, the physically han
dicapped, the hungry, the blood
program, people with problems,
for babies who need homes, and
for medical research.
Atlantic Christian College
students are urged to reach out
and help others by walking in the
Walk-a-thon,
Sponsor sheets may be picked
up at the United Fund office
located in the Chamber of
Commerce building. Sponsors
will pay for the miles walked.
A committee is working out
awards and-or recognition.
1. X’isitation hours will be in
every dormitory on campus
from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Friday and Saturday and
Sund;iy from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00
p.m.
2. Visitors will be required to
sign in and out of dormitories.
3. Each visitor will be
escourted by their host or
hostess.
4. Additional stipulations may
tx' set up in order to accomodate
specific dormitories.
These are merely suggestions
vottxl on by the dormitory
presidents and the Social
Standards Committee, The final
rules will be set up by the
Executive Committee in
December. It l<x)ks like the SGA
has gotten the issue headed in
one direction and that direction
is a confrontation with the
Executive Committee of the
Board of Trustees in December,
The question now is how bad do
you really want the personal
right to visit with your
classmate in his or her room that
is being rented from the college
to live in and to call home.
If you want this right, I en
courage you to talk to these
committee members or write
letters to the Board of Trustees
and administrators asking them
to help you to obtain a little more
responsibility and freedom in
hopes to improve yourself and
this college.
There will be a list of Student
Life Administration Council, and
Executive Committee members
posted on the bulletin board
outside the SGA office. This is
your chance to help ,,,

Christian College’s drama
program was tested this week
when three one acts were
everything but authored by the
students.
“Ludlow Fair” by Lanford
Wilson pitted Debbie Hester
against Leigh McClelland as two
roommates who hear but don’t
listen. Under Leslie Johnstone^s
direction, this biting satire on
youth’s loneliness and despair
ignited the state with allusions
and quotations. The actresses
professionally threw away one-
liners in their illustration of the
shallowness of the American
dream.
The play forcefully shouts that
we usually don’t get what we
want and that we will always
settle for what we can get.
Noteworthy were the stage
management by Heather Jordan
and the exceptionally well-
designed lighting.
The surprise of the evening is
a very short — less tha 10
minutes — avant garde
metaphor, “The Hunter and the
Bird,” by Jean Claude Van
Itallie, This play could not be a
second longer without having too
much in it.
As it is, palyed almost per
fectly by Elaine Lee as the bird
and Ivan Price Jr. as the hunter,
the play allegorizes the battle of
the sexes, the human destruction
of nature and its consequences,
the problem of man's brutality
and curiosity, and why we all
can’t have a chicken in every
pot. Double entendre is in every
image, and the allusions
sometimes become mirrors
reflecting mirrors.
Stage management by Linda
Ashe, lighting by Bill Thomas,
and particularly the sound by
David Arnold all add just the
right subtle touch to this snappy
farce that packs the wallop of
your first persimmon,
“Krapp’s Last Tape” con
cludes the evening, Samuel
Beckett, its author, has for the
past few years, evolving toward
the essence of the theatre, In this
one act, he has progressed to a
point where thre is only one
character and a set. Conflict and
plot have become totally in-
teriorized. His latest play,
“Breath,” lasts 40 seconds and
has no characters and a minimal
set. It represents the ultimate
toward which “Krapp’s Last
Tape” is evolving,
Steve Hunt does a credible job
as the old man at war with his
youth and his age. Lighting by
David Jefferies and stage
management by Marcy Smith
were well done. Minor problems
occur with the sound by David
