College To Honor Trustee And Benefactor
“Cary Boshamer Has Been A
Source Of Strength And Support...
CARY C. BOSHAMER
Brevard College will honor
Cary C. Boshamer, a trustee
and leading benefactor of the
institution, with a luncheon
and dedication services for
the new wing of Boshamer
Gymnasium Saturday, Febru
ary 7th.
“Cary Boshamer has been a
source of strength and sup
port for this college for the
past sixteen years,” stated
President Robert A. Davis,
“His support of the athletic
program at Brevard has been
more than matched by his
concern for the educationally
and economically deprived
student.
“At a time when many are
prophesying the death of the
private liberal arts college,
he has voiced his strong be
lief in the principles and
values of Christian higher
education, and has evidenced
that support by his generous
contributions to the educa
tional, scholarship, and build
ing needs of Brevard Col
lege.”
A trustee of the college
since 1954, Boshamer pro
vided funds for the building
of Boshamer Gymnasium in
in 1962. The addition to the
athletic facility was com
pleted in 1969 and will be
used primarily for women’s
physical education classes
and intramural activities.
Members of the college’s
athletic teams trustees, fac
ulty representatives and ad-.
ministrative officers will
gather at 1:30 p.m. Saturday
in the Albert G. Myers Din
ing Hall for a testimonial
luncheon. Kenneth Eaton,
president of the Student Gov
ernment Association will be
gin the luncheon program
with a tribute to Mr. Bos
hamer on behalf of the stu
dent body. He will be follow
ed by Leighton W. Martin,
athletic director and head
basketball coach.
Gil Coan, local insurance
agent and a trustee of the
college, will represent the
alumni of Brevard on the
program. Allen H. Sims of
Gastonia, chairman of the
board of trustees, will de
liver the main testimonial
address. Closing remarks will
be given by John I. Ander-
Howard Hanger Trio Slated For
Appearance At Brevard, Tonight
The Howard Hanger Trio,
a jazz group specializing in
experimentation in the area
of workship, will appear in
concert before the student
body of Brevard College Fri
day, February 6.
The trio is constantly experi
menting with communication in
the fine arts. Rather than pour
ing out a program onto an audi
ence, the attempt is made to
have the audience respond and
react in such a way that they,
in effect, create an “experi
ence” for that moment.
The term “spontaneous
liturgy” has been applied to
what quite often happens
through an experience in
jazz. Musically, the Trio
draws from any and all

sources. From a Gregorian
Chant to a Bach chorale, to
Brubeck or the Beatles, the
purpose of the Trio remains
to establish communication.
Along with the music, the
Trio provides multi-film pro
jections, light shows, dra
matic readings, poetry, and
often a column from a cur
rent newspaper.
None of these media are used
simply to baffle or astound,
rather, they are used as spurs
to bring about a creative ex
perience for the participant.
With the idea of experi
mentation in the area of wor
ship, the Trio was organized
in 1965. Since that time,
liturgies ranging from “The
Book of Common Prayer” to
Malcolm Boyd have been set
to music by this talented
group of artists. While main
taining a full list of engage
ments at colleges and univer
sities throughout the country,
the Trio has sought to de
