$400 Given
For Spring Fling
At the Student Cabinet meet
ing on January 18, the motion was
made to give the classes $400
for the Spring Fling. This money
is to be divided proportionately
among the classes.
The Cabinet will have a re
treat on the weekend of February
8-9 in order to make nominations
for the coming student bodyelec-
tions. Plans will be made for the
initiation and installation of the
newly elected officers.
The Cabinet hopes to initiate
more interest in the Literary
Magazine by suggesting that the
Editorial board present this
council in order that section
leaders can present it at suite
meetings. Also, at the next Stu
dent Body meeting, the co
editors, Margaret Abrams and
Harriet Otten can present this
project.
Shewmake's use of a glazing
medium provides a rich, luml.
nous, almost jewel-llke quality
to his paintings, which seem to
sparkle with inner lights.
The artist’s original intent was
“the production of paintings sym.
bolizing motion by means of 11-
lusions of warped or bent sur-
faces. ” However, in many of the
works he has eliminated the
motion and concentrated on the
effect of bent planes.
To gain this effect, Shewmake
overlaid a glazing medium of
transparent pigments on top of
an opaque underpainting. This
brought out delicate nuances of
plane transitions and luminous
quality.
“The overall plastic effect of
the forms in these pictures and
their vibrant colors make seeing
them a moving experience ”
notes Prof. Jemlson Hoskins of
St. Andrews.
Questions, Please
On April 15-17 Dr. Carlyle
Marney from the Myers Park
Baptist Church of Charlotte and

his visit Dr, Marney has re
quested that students submit
questions which they are con
cerned about. These questions
may be left at the Lance office
or with any member oftheS.C.C.
These questions will be for-
warded to Dr. Marney who will
answer them as weU as use
them for a guide for his talks
and after activities in AprH
NCEA Meets
The St. Andrews Chapter of
the Student NCEA held its regu
lar meeting on Tuesday, Jan.
uary 7, 1964. Dr. Joseph Wishon,
Assistant Superintendent of Scot
land County Schools, presented
a program on future plans for
the consolidation of the schools
in the county.
The next meeting will be held
February 4, and all members
are urged to attend.
Further, American students are
learning for wrong purposes.
High school is a means to col
lege, college is a means to ‘pres
tige living.’ ”
Dr. Taylor urged that educators
should stop talking nonsense
about the “average student” and
consider the average,student as
one on his way to full develop
ment.
“The American student is
caught in the situation whereas
educational policy is viewed as
national policy. Whatever the
federal government decides it
wants, the educational system is
called upon to produce.”
A director of the Peace Re
search Institute, Dr. Taylor has
recently been host on an ABC net
work program “Meet the Profes
sor.” He has lectured at the
major colleges and universities
of this country and is the author
of more than 200 articles as
well as two books, “Education
and Freedom” and “Art and the
Intellect.”
In 1945 he became the youngest
president of an American col
lege when he assumed the leader
ship of Sarah Lawrence College
in Bronxville, New York. He
earned his doctor of philosophy
degree at the University of Lon
don at the age of twenty-three.
