Conducts For Music School
Laurinburg, N. C., Thursday, Oct. 19, 1967
Vol. 7. No. 7.
St. Andrews School of Mu
sic was privileged to have a
brilliant young concert pia
nist, Carol Rosenberger^ con
duct a Master Class for the
piano students Monday night,
October 16.
As a part of the Concert
Lecture Series at Vardell Hall
in Red Springs, Miss Rosen
berger played a superb per
formance of the Schubert So
nata No, 5 and the Beethoven
Sonata Opus 111.
Born in Detroit, Michigan,
Miss Rosenberger was a child
prodigy, beginning her piano
career at the age of three. She
received her Bachelor of Fine
Arts Degree from Carnegie
Technical Institute, and in 1955
she went to Europe for further
study in piano at the Conser
vatory of Fountainebieau in Pa
ris.
During her year there, she
was struck with polio, and being
paralazed in her arms and
hands, she was told that she
would never be able to play the
piano again. In her determi
nation to overcome this fate,
she went to a doctor in Den
mark for help in therapy and
exercise.
Following therapy treatment
she went to the Vienna Academy
in Vienna, Australia. Her at
tempts to play even a scale
were futile. At this time she
studied the harpsicord, an in
strument requiring less stren
gth and technical ability. In
1958 she returned to the United
States.
Miss Rosenberger continued
to work and after several mon
ths, her first step was com
pleted--she was finally able to
play a scale! She progressed
from scales to Bach Inventions
and onto more difficult music.
She made her first European
tour in 1963, and even though
her story was unknown, she
received raving reviews from
the critics. She has since then
made another very successful
European tour and is climbing
for the top.
At present she is giving con
certs throughout the United
States and has also appeared on
tour as soloist with the St,
Louis Symphony and the In
dianapolis Symphony.
Miss Rosenberger teaches
piano part time at Emaculate
Heart College in California.
In January she is to give two
performances with the Royal
Philharmonic. Miss Rosen
berger had just recently sign
ed a three year contract with a
recording company in New
York.
Mr. and Mrs. Dady Mehta,
personal friends of Miss Ro
senberger, arranged this per
formance for St. Andrews stu
dents.

‘The Originals”
To Play For
Mid-Term Dance
Joker’s Three and the Junior
Class are presenting “The Ori
ginals” Saturday, October 21.
This swinging band com.es to us
from Burlington, N. C,
Having the reputation of play
ing at all leading colleges and
universities in the South, "The
Originals’’ bring with them
their new instrumental, "Who
Done It?” This has been a big
hit in the Piedmont area.
This dance was originally
scheduled to be sponsored by
the Letterman’s Club but due
to lack of preparations Dean
Decker asked the Junior Class
to take over.
The Student Affairs Office
is financing the dance to pro
vide entertainment for the mid
term weekend.
Door Prizes will be given.
The dance will be held in the
cafeteria from 8:30-12:20 p.m.
Late permission will be given
to all girls attending the dance.
DeTamble Under Two Systems
The DeTamble Library is
presently undergoing a change
over from the old Dewey De
cimal system of classifying
books to the method used by the
Library of Congress.
Mrs. Bennett, the library's
head cataloguer, stated that
switching to the Library of
Congress method would speed
up the processing of books. In
previous years only an aver
age of 100 books per week were
shelved, now 300 to 400 are
catalogued and filed per week,
Mrs. Bennett added that pre
viously there had been only one
cataloguer, where now there
are two to further decrease
processing.
Imitiated last January, the
project has no “re-classifi-
cation budget” to be used to
finance the changeover. Thus
far, 2,000 volumes have been
changed. However, approxi
mately 6,000 new books have
been classified under the new
system. This means that, out of
close to 45,000 volumes in the
library at present, nearly 8,000
are classified according to the
Library of Congress system.
The Library has provided
chart explaining the new sys
tem, as well as maps, locat
ing the books in the library.
Subject - oriented shelves are
Rlso in preparation.
There are 24 alphabetical
classifications, under the Lib
rary of Congress system
whereas the Dewey Decimal
system has only 10. This allows
for a more detailed breakdown
of various subjects.
Mrs. Bennett added, "the
hope of the library staff in us
ing the Library of Congress
system is that the students will
be able to get more volumes
that they want, and need in a
muc h shorter period of time
than they would under the De
wey Decimal system of classi
fication.’’
Chad and Jeremy to Swing Fall Fling
What does fall bring? The
Fling. November 3 and 4 will
be St. Andrews’ big weekend,
an Instant replay of past years
when Rufus did the dog or The
Associations turned on. This
year’s Fall Fling appears to be
just as impressive and lively.
Friday, November 3 at 8:00
p.m. in the cafeteria, there
will be a dance featuring The
Embers, North Carolina’s lead
ing band from Raleigh who can
play anything from soul to psy-
chodellc. Cost is $1.00 per stu
dent for entertainment and a
‘‘junkin’' good time.
Saturday afternoon at 2;30
there will be a Hootenanny In
front of the Student Center.
Students will bring their gui
tars, banjos, and ukes for a
typical St. Andrews Love-in,
though not quite in Berkeley
style.
The concert on Saturday night
at 8:30 will present Englishmen
Chad and Jeremy. Nationally
reknown, Chad and Jeremy ap
peal to grooving old people as
well as teenagers and even
college students approve of
their popularity. The two sing
ers trumentalists have had such
hits as "Yesterday’s Gone,”
"Summer Song,” and "Willow
Weep for Me.”
Chad and Jeremy are unique
musicians for they perform all
moods of music-gentle, sad,
funny or even rock’n’roll. While
Jeremy is the actor, having
starred in such plays as "Ham
let” and "A Man For All Sea
sons,” Chad has published and
has written songs for a music
publishing firm. Both give up
these talents to proceed into a
singing career, starting with
their own folk songs in nightly
coffee house routines. The con
cert will be held in the main
gym. Tickets may be pur
chased in advances for $1.50.
