NUMBER SIXTEEN
March Looks Busy
The second half of the semester is in full swing now. The time for procrastination is over, as term
papers, projects, reports, and other trivial details are piling up on the students. A few spare moments
are well spent in an empty classroom glancing over unread pages or class notes. (Photo bv Doug

Early Music Ensemble
The Early Music Ensemble is
perhaps one of the most unique
performing groups at Atlantic
Christian College. The group
was organized about 1967 mainly
for instructional purposes.
It was felt that music history

Claridge
Bids For
Collegiate
My name is Fred Claridge and
I am running for Collegiate
editor, I suppose that a vote for
me is really a vote for a more
aesthetically inclined,
liberalized newspaper.
Basically my philosophy is
Oils: a college newspaper should
be more feature-riented and less
news-oriented, for two reasons;
one, the campus gossip machine
carries news much more quickly
and efficiently than the
newspaper could ever hope to,
and second, if the gossip
machine does not pick it up, you
probably would not want to read
about it anyway.
There are quite a few per
tinent things going on around us
tftat many of us are not aware of,
and we need to talk about these

eras would have more meaning
to students if an ensemble was
formed to perform the music of
those eras. A contemporary
interest in antiquity has helped
to sustain the life of the
organization since its beginning.

Instruments used by the en

Runs For
Collegiate
I’m Bob Sills, running for
Collegiate editor, A Hoosier by
birth, a Tarheel by choice, I
have wantered widely from
America to Japan, from Texas
to New York, from Ohio to
Mississippi. I am a misplaced
hobo searching for meaning in
life.
Most of the pith in life that I
have discovered stems from the
people I have met in my travels.
People make my life worth
living. Writing is my favorite
form of communication.
Communication is necessary in
any productive relationship
between growing, sensitive
people. My experience with
communication has been
coloured by those wild, won
derful days I spent with Uncle
Sam’s flyboys flying a desk as a
radio operator. I have also
gained much spending my idle
hours as a copy editor for The
Collegiate this semester,
I offer you an innovative
paper, but not so innovative as to
distort news.
No controversy for con
troversy’s sake here. My paper
will stress more human interest
stories which relate to the
majority of the students.
Preference would lean to
publicize events before they
happen. A sports page should be
more concise, and all-inclusive.
An outstanding athlete of the
week article would be in
teresting to you. The sports page
needs a calendar of events.
Finally, investigative reporting
as it relates to student life would
be a step forward for The
Collegiate. It would be more
likely to stimulate action than a
simple, “I think we should.” Our
paper needs to be more
professional in its outlook and
execution.
Bob Sills
The krummhorn dates to
about the 15th century. The J-
shaped double-reed instruments
were often seen in religious
paintings of the time. They were
popular until the mid-17th
century.
The pear-shaped rebec came
to Europe from Islamic coun
tries in the 8th or 9th centuries.
They were popular well into the
18th century at which time only
street musicians continued to
play them.
The recorders, or whistle
flutes, have been around since
the late Middle Ages, Popularity
for the instrument has pulsated
through history. Several
revivals of interest have oc
curred in the 20th century.
The trombone-like sagbut (or
sackbut) dates from about the
16th century. It resembles a
small-bell trombone. Paintings
of the era depict angels playing
the instruments. Because of the
small bell, the tone is soft and
mellow — thus causing it to
blend well with human voices or
angelic choirs.
The raucous, but gentle sound
of the cornetto has been around
since the 13th century. The
cornetto is a slightly curved
wooden tube that is tightly
covered by leather. It blows like
a trumpet and fingers notes on
open holes as the recorders. It is
often used for fanfares or as a
duet instrument with strings.

Need Cash, Again?
Ed: l^ast week we ran this
article about the Basic Grants
Program. However, the hi-
formation published was slightly
outdated. We appreciate the
scrutiny of ,\CC: financial aid
office in detecting the error.
What follows is the entire text,
including the correction as noted
by Ms, Deans, an ,\CC financial
aid official.
Need some cash to see you
through the school year — with
no strings attached?
Under the Basic Grants
program sponsored by HEW's
U,S, Office of Education, you
may be eligible to receive
anywhere from $200 to $1,400 a
year to help pay for your
education.
There are just a few
requirements. You, and your
family, must be in financial
need; you must be enrolled at
least half-time.
To find out if you qualify,
complete and submit an
"Application for Determination
of Basic Grant Eligibility." This
form is available from your
school, public library, or by
writing: Basic Grants, P.O. Box
84, Washington, D. C. 2(KH4.
Within 4 to 6 weeks you receive
a notice of your eligibility.
Submit this to your financial aid
officer, who will then calculate
the amount of your Basic Grant
award.
Remember, Basic Grants can
never cover more than half of
the total cost of your education.
This includes tuition, fees, room
and board, books, supplies, and
miscellaneous expenses.
You may also be eligible to
receive money through any one
of the other financial aid
programs sponsored by the
Office of Education Check for
further details at your financial
aid office.
