Women's Hours
Up For Approval
By a near-unamimous vote of 23
to 2, the Senate Monday night pass
ed a bill which would change clos
ing hours from the present 11 p.m.
to midnight for all women’s resi
dence halls at St. Andrews.
The bill, sponsored by the Wel
fare Committee , is now in the
hands of Student Association Pre
sident Bob Anderson. If he appro
ves it the measure will eventually
go to President of the College An-
sley C. Moore for final approval.
The only negative discussion of
the bill to come out while it was
on the Senate floor Monday night
was that it might cause problems
with Saturday class attendance.
John Apperson, who was the author
of the bill, commented that per
haps the bill “would encourage
more people to remain on the cam
pus for the weekend because a
mid-night curfew would enable
couples to gotopopular spots some
distance from Laur inburg.”
John further said that the bill was
written In the interest of the cur
rent trend at St. Andrews toward
“individual freedom” and the con
current ability for students to make
their own decisions concerning so

Carolina Prof In Spanish
Miss Marie Anderson from
southeastern North Carolina has
replaced Professor Bohigas in the
Spanish department.
She is a graduate of University
m
i
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
and did work at Escuela Normal
Superior in Mexico Ciry as part
of the UNC-CH student exchange
program.
Our new Spanish professor’s
hobby is “recording chiildren’s
poetry for her nieces, nephews,
and children of her friends.” A.
A. Milme, author of “Winnie, the
Pooh,” is her favorite children’s
author.
Miss Anderson expresses much
interest in St. Andrews C &C pro
gram and in the way our college
makes it poss ible for qualified pliy-
sically handicapped student’s to
attend school. She comments that
she likes St. Andrews and Laurin-
burg very much.”
Wdmen Players
Play "House,”
Spanish Style
You think color T. V. is nev;
and exciting? Wait until you see
black and white theatre.
The Highland Players’ next pro
duction, The House of Bernarda Al
ba, will be staged entirely in black
white, and shades of gray. This
stark color scheme will heighten
and intensify the tragedy of Bern-
ad’s frustrated daughters, whose
natural impluses are suppressed
by their domineering mother.
The set, a realistic interior de
signed by Bob Bercaw, will be
painted white and textured with
gray to give the effect of stucco
walls. A Spanish atmosphere will
be created with archways and
earthenware pottery.
The furniture will be constructed
by the Players, except for the
chairs, which are being ordered
from Mexico.
The 19th century costumes, de
signed by John Pfaff and created
by Julia Wilson, will be in black
and gray. Different patterns and
materials will add variety.
A guitar will set the mood and
an off-stage chorus of men will
magnify tension. Professor Tho
mas Sommerville is composing
the music.
All this hard work and attention
to detail should produce an excit
ing drama. The show will be pre
sented November 16-19 at S:00
p.m. in the L. A. A.
