Dr. Hart issued the follow
ing statement last week to ful
fill his promise in late Octo
ber of prescribing a policy for
the use of College-owned ve
hicles. The original issue con
cerned the use of a bus for a
Fayetteville peace march.
“College-owned vehicles are
maintained to facilitate the
regular educational activities
programs of the College. Ac
cordingly, such vehicles are
made available to faculty and
to recognized campus or
ganizations only for purposes
approved in advice by the ap
propriate division chairman or
administrative head. The dri-
ver(s) must be approved in
advance by the Director of Phy
sical Plant”.

An Experience
With Stage 2
“Now the left arm. Higher.
Now relax. Now once again and
this time try to move with the
full force of the body. Yes,
yes, that’s it. Now one, two,
three, and relax”.
The voice of Yoma Sasburgh
echoes through the vast cham
ber of the rehearsal studio of
Stage Two as she conducts a
class in body movement for
fifteen student actors from St.
Andrews. The fifteen students
are a part of the Theatre Pro
gram’s winter term course in
London under the direction of
Professor Arthur McDonald.
“Now let’s move all to
gether. One, two . . .” And
so the choreographer con

as they explore the limbs, the
torso and the mind that are
unified in the task of creation.
The actors move with the dis
cipline demanded by Yoma and
when they cannot fulfill the
task she makes further de
mands. Then finally with under
standing she suggests that a-
nother day may bring success.
After leaping through the space
that they have now redefined
with their movements the ac
tors take a break and prepare
for the three o’clock session
with the acting staff.
Each day the actors from the
experimental performing com
pany, Stage Two, along with the
director of this new venture in
the theatre on the London art
scene, James Roose-Evans,
work with the students for two
hours for five days each week
of the winter term. Under the
guidance of these five instruc
tors the students begin the first
exercises of the day. Seated in a
circle they begin to explore
a single sound. The voices echo
each other. They respond as
they explore the varied di
mensions of a w 0 r d that as
sumes a new meaning In the
process. Then they begin to
move.
First the actors move their
hands. Their hands speak a lan
guage that probes beyond sym
