Annual Blow-Out Planned
MAURICE WILLIAMS AND THE ‘‘ZODIACS
> f
According to Grace Markham,
Chairman of the Social Commis
sion, this coming weekend, Oc
tober 30-31, will be a livelq one
for Wesleyan students.
The Autumn Jubilee will begin
Friday evening at 8:00 p. m.
in the new gymnasium with a Pop
Concert sponsored by the Music
Department of Wesleyan College.
Featured events of this Wesleyan
I first’ ’ will include ‘ ‘ Rhapsody in
Blue” for band and piano, fea
turing Miss Etta Spivey of our
Music Department as piano
soloist. The Wesleyan Singers,
a talented group, accompanied by
the band, will sing “Joshua” and
“Dry Bones.” We also under
stand that a faculty quartet will
sing “When You Wore a Tulip”
and several other light numbers
along this vein. Also, a dance
band will provide further enter
tainment.
On Saturday afternoon, our
spirited soccer team, which has
been doing a fine job this
year , will tangle with the UNC
Frosh; this should prove to be
quite a battle before it is all
over. The game of soccer is a
rugged, semi-contact sport, and
this one should be well worth
watching. The game will begin
at two o’clock.
On Halloween Eve from five to
six , a Bar-B-Q picnic will be
held behind North Hall. After-
dinner entertainment will be pro
vided by a local fold singing group
which should warm us up for the
main event of the weekend. Guest
tickets may be purchased from
Betty Chand ( resident students)
and Ed Schultz ( day students).
To climax the evening, Maurice
Williams and the Zodiacs, who
provided us with much wild en
tertainment last year, will be
back on campus Saturday night for
the “Harvest Howl.” They will
be “blowing it out” from eight
to twelve, and the walls of our
new gym will stand their first
real test. Advance tickets for
this dance may be purchased from
any member of the Monogram
Club, the Chairman of the Social
Commission, or from the campus
bookstore.
Should anyone be interested in
room accomodations for out-of-
town guests, they are advised to
contact Janice Roebuck (Nash),
Bill Gruver (Edgecombe), Edna
Langston (North), or A1 Rexroad
(South),
