Attends State
Convention
Fourteen Brevard Collegians
visited Raleigh Novemtoer 3 5
r ttend the Fall Convention
of the Baptist Student Union
of North Carolina. Approximate-
fv 30 schools were represented
si™ 500 B.S.U. stadents
Tattendmce^ Meetings were
held in the First Baptist Church
and Meredith College.
The theme for the conven
tion wa^ “Unto the Least of
These.” Programs consisted ot
worship services, discussion
groups, business meetings, and
four enlightening
plays included were IN Winra
AMERICA, CHRIST IN ^
CONCRETE CITY, ON PAT
TERSON AVENUE, and TO BE
BACK. They were presented by
two Apostalia drama teams, the
listen team, and a group of
ten Negroes from Shaw Univer
sity. The impact of each play
was tremendously realistic and
shoeked the students into a
new awareness of their roles as
Americans.
Related to the theme was
a 20 foot tall backdrop behind
the pulpit containing the fol
lowing statement: “I am a Chris
tian. I will love the unlovely,
the Sl(Jb, the Queer, I will min
ister to the Cop, the Whore, the
Creep; I will pray for the
Loser, the Mindless Masses, the
Self-sufficient. For I am a
Christian ... I Love!”
The two main speeches were
given by Rev. Bud Walker, Har-
tod graduate, and Dr. Jalck
B. Noffsinger, pastor of Knoll-
wood Baptist Church in Win
ston - Salem. The complete con
trol of sarcasm and the ability
of each to get down on the le
gal of the average student
made each delegate feel as one
Brevard student said, “I never
felt that way before.”
Those students atending in
cluded Sallie Stephenson, Ded-
orah Sams, Ann Fisher, Sylvia
Monteith, Jo Arm Isenhower,
June Garren, Jo Ann Pace, Je-
nell Strickland, Hugh Lothery,
Dana Mason, Nancy Pace, and
^dall Garren. Mr. Quentin
Cantrell and Mrs. Brown Pace
served as bus driver, mother,
sponsor, and chaperone. Each
person stayed in the home of
R^eigh residents and found
such things as free pool and
pin ball machines in their pri

lightful.

^‘Spoon River Anthology”
Is Presented At G-W
Where are Elmer, Herman,
Bert, Tom and Charley,
The weak of will, the strong
of arm, the clown, the boo
zer, the fighter?
All are sleeping on the hill
One passes in a fever.
One was burned in a mine,
One was killed in a brawl.
One died in a jail,
One fell from a bridge toil
ing for children and wife—
Ail, all are sleeping, sleep
ing. sleeping on the hill.

ing effects. All characters re
mained on the stage, and lights

performance ended with tne
singing of Spoon River.
Although Miss Taylor and

Mr. Tawney plans to relate
the meaning or significance of
a dream and give a history of
dream interpretations. There
will also be time for questions
and for a few students to talk
about their dreams, and have
them interpreted.
This program is designed
for anyone who is interested in
learning about the workings of
his suto-concious and the way
the subconscious expresses it
self. Mr. Tawney invites every
one to come Friday evening for
a fascinating discussion of
dreams.
The American Classical Thea
tre will perform Shakespeare’s
“The Comedy of Errors” as a
part of the lyeum series of
Brevard College. Two perfor
mances will be given; one on
November 14 and one on No
vember 15 at 8:15 p. m. in toe
auditorium of Dunham Fine
Arts Center.
“The Comedy of Errors” is
Shakespeare’s earliest and
perhaps funniest play. It has
been performed throughout the
world for nearly three hundred
years and has appealed to all
age groups. The play is equip
ped with robust action, appeal
ing characters, and a skillful
plot.
Although the play is Eliza
bethan, Shakespeare adapted it
from a Roman play by Plautus
and combined with it several
elements of other classic plays.
For this reason, “The Comedy
of Errors” has a Roman set
ting and thus exhibits those
traits of ancient Rome. This
Sihakspierean accompHiskment
has been so performed that the
spectator might laugh at the
beating of a slave, the separa
tion of a family, the death of
an old man, who is a victim of
circumstance, and the misery
of a woman infected with jeal
ousy. Such an atmosphere is
thus produced in which the suf
fering witnessed is indeed
laughable for it is knoiro that
everything will be all right in
the end.
The play is directed by John
Foreman, a veteran of theater
productions throughout the
world. The cast is of some of
the finest actors in theater
plays. Vic Carallaro, Gregory
Greene, David Chodos, Timothy
Taylor, Eve Sigalaff, Randall
Hines, and Nancy Steffens have
all toured throughout the world
both in groups and as indi
viduals. Their performances
have been superb and have
brought them much recognition
in theater circuits.

WOW!
ATTENTION:
No Double Cuts!
Flash! The College Council
voted last week to approve a
recommendation by the SGA to
revoke double cuts on Thanks
giving Day. “You have them,”
remarked Dean Roberts at this
week’s SGA meeting Wednesday
night. “Have what?” asked a
SGA member. “No double cut
on Thanksgiving,” Roberts re
plied. Several minutes of clap
ping and cheering ensued.
“Would you like to hear about
next year?” the Dean asked.
“Yes!” was the chorused answer.
“Next year you will have three
days off for Thanksgiving.” Sev-
