Students Display
Arts In Exhibit
The Art Department opened
its sixth annual art exhibit on,
Sunday, May 15. Featured in the
show were paintings, drawings,
sculpture, ceramics, and designs
by the students in the depart
ment.
Mr. Wilson, head of the Art
Department, explained that “thq
department is guiding the stu
dent performer's in the general
area of contemporary abstrac
tion with a strong attempt to
indicate the ‘geometric esthetic’
of African primitive sculpture.’’
This aim was defined in part by
the nature of the student works
on exhibit.
Exhibiting students w e r €(
James Colt, Jack Johnson,
Wilma Little, Judith Moore,
JuUa Booker, Ben Peterson,
Carl Hawthorne, Earnest Bar
nes, Harvey Ramseur, Dolliei
Graham, Herman Aldridge,
Willie McAllister, Bernard Flet
cher, and Ellis Smith.
According to quantity, Carl
Hawthorne, who has withdrawn
from the College, Dollie Gra-.
ham, Earnest Bames were the
chief exhibitors.
Dollie Graham presented
several drawings, one of which
was a self portrait. This drawing
was accomplished with the use
of a mirror. Miss Graham alscy
exhibited paintings among
which was an abstract represen
tation of a table, a goat’s skull, a,
flask, and a steering wheel.
Hawthorne, who was studying
to be a designer, showed several
paintings and drawings. He em
ployed the use of color to
achieve various effects.
Earnest Barnes exhibited
several different styles of paint
ings. One painting was a repre
sentation of football players
•during a game on O’Kelly Field.
Another interesting painting
by Barnes was a form he called
“Apartheid.” Within the frame
were the colors Black, white,
and red. This painting probably
was representative of'the Negro,
the whites, and blood from the
result of a clash of ideals.
The exhibit closed Wednesday.
Another is plaiuied for next
year.

Patronize
By Cynthia Jarman
Still water runs deep! This
saying, however trite and over-,
worked, has never been morel
true than when applied t6
Cynthia Ann McDonald, iwten-
tial graduate, president of the
Women’s Student Government,
and president of Alpha Kappa
Mu, to name but a few of her
positions on the NCC campus.
Looking backward over he«
record since her enrollment at
NCC, it becomes rather hard to
fit such a mildly fantastic re
cord of achievement in with
Cynthia’s personality, which
seems (if Cynthia will excuse
this statement) anything but
fantastic at first glance!
Cynthia McDonald is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd
G. McDonald of Southern Pines,
N. C. She entered the gates of
North Carolina College at the
age of 16 years in September of
.1956. During her freshman year,
she was elected to the Housqi
Council, joined the Thespians/
Club, the Campus Echo staff,
the Intercollegiate Fellowship
and the Ivy Leaf Club.
In her sophomore year
Cynthia was elected president of
the House-Council, representa
tive of the Student Congress,
and became a member of the
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.
Following this highly activa
ted program, Cynthia joined
three honor societies during her
junior year, namely; Alpha,
Kappa Mu, Kappa Delta Sociolo-»
gical Society, and Pi Gamma
Mu. Along with these she joined
the NAACP, and served as
Parliamentarian of the AKA
sorority.
It is said that the senior year
is a year of confusion, of inde
cision and all around chaos. If
this is true, then it is nothing
short of a miracle how this ris
ing senior kept up with or upped
the pace she had set during her
senior year. She was voted
senior-at-large, president oi
Alpha Kappa Mu, became a
member of Who’s Who Among'
Students in American Universi
ties and Colleges, the ranking
student in both of her major*
areas, English and sociology,
and won the Hamilton Watch,
Award. She also contributed
greatly to the calibre of the
Campus Echo by serving as its
Literary Editor. Because of her
service, her charm and grace,
she was chosen by the Campus
Echo Staff to be the Sweetheart
of the Campus Echoi
One fact that is not surprising
is the variety in the list of extra
curricular pastimes that Miss
McDonald enjoys. Our Literary
Editor likes to read novels and
observe people. She engages in
reflective thinking usually on
the existing and changing so^
cial conditions. She takes an
active part in dramatics and
has played lead roles in many
of the productions given by the(
Thespian Club. Like many cow
eds, Cynthia is a TV fiend. ShQ
likes movies but refrains from
attending them because of the
segregated policies.
When asked about her future
plans, Cynthia says she would
like to continue her studies in
English and social work.
Cynthia, our pacific senior,
has this “well worth taking” ad
vice for her fellow classmates:
“Don’t spread yourself too thin.
To the freshmen, choose the
major with which you, and ex
pressly you, will be happier,
After making your choice, work]
diligently. Make up your mind

Miss Lyons, next year’s!
sweetheart, is a rising junior
and a member of the Alpha
Kappa Alpha Sorority. TheJ
Greensboro mathematics major
and French and general science
minor says that her interests
outside of classes are reading,
'sewing, and listening to music.
