'EVENING OF LOVE’ WOWS AUDIENCES by Marsha White Arduous work by all actors, directors, and production staff was evi dent in the polished per formances given in the “An Evening of Love” series of three one-act plays. Superb characteri zation and exquisite set design were probably the most important factors which contributed to the effectiveness of the plays. Talent among the student directors was quite ob vious, also. “Cecile,” a seventeenth century play with a French garden set ting, was directed by Ann Douglas. No doubt, Sean Moran’s entrance as Monsieur Damiens com pletely captivated the au dience. His gestures, voice, and over-all ap pearance created a de lightful character. It is hoped Mr. Moran will ABOVE: Dave Siple as Monsieur Orlas and Eileen O’Grady as Araminthe Damiens in early scenes of Anouilh’s “Cecile. make another stage ap pearance soon. Eileen O’Grady oncea- gain exhibited her usual accomplished acting skill and versatility while Mike Dwyer performed quite well in his most chival rous manner. Dave Siple and Angela French exe cuted respectively the fa ther’s and the daughter’s roles quite competently. Barbara Brown direct ed the second one-act, (Continued on Page 4) CAFETERIA EXAMINED (Editor’s Note: This story is the first of a series in which THE DECREE will examine the Cafeteria from the point of view of the student workers in the Cafeteria, of its management, and of the students it serves.

In an effort to dis cover why, we interview ed some of the student workers in the Cafeteria. Said one freshman girl: “Our reason for either conditions.” In elabor ating, she complained that the task of cleaning up after meals, part of her job, is made much more difficult than it normally would be because many students decline to take their trays to the window, leaving them to be taken up later by the student workers. Other students workers said that general rudeness by students eat ing in the Cafeteria makes them reluctant to continue quitting or being uneager working there.

Tom Mowbray, Presi dent of Wesleyan's Omi- cron Rho Chapter of Al pha Phi Omega announced recently that his organi zation is sponsoring this year’s Ugly Man on Cam pus contest, In his words, ‘This contest was con ceived as a means of rais in g the revenues neces sary for our service pro jects and at the same time to provide an acti vity which may be enjoy ed by all of the various campus organizations.” This year, he said, the Omicron Rho Chapter will use these funds as a con tribution to the Stoney Creek Fire Dept, and Rescue Squad. Stoney Creek has long provided the only rescue squad for this section of Nash Coun ty and their fire depart ment stands ready, as does that of Battleboro, to protect Wesleyan Col lege. Stated Mowbray: “It is with this in mind that the brotherhood of APO has pledged both the ser vice of its members and its efforts to raise the revenue necessary to continue the work of this organization.” Speaking for APO,Mow- bray invited all campus organizations to take part in the UMOC Contest by nominating and support ing a candidate for ‘The coveted title of ‘The Ug liest Man On Campus.’ ” The winning sponsor, he said, will receive a check (Continued on page 3)
