PAGE FOUR MAROON AND GOLD Wednesday, February 14, 1951 Players To Give '^Outward Bound’ Second Time On VFhitley^s Stage Playing for the last time to night, Wednesday, February 14, the Elon Players production of “Outward Bound” opened last night to an appreciative and re ceptive audience in Whitley Au; ditorium. With only one more perform ance to be given, “Outward Bound” brings to the Elon stage a suspenseful drama of mysticism, final justice, enduring love and lost souls. The portrayal of a small group of people going into eternity grips the imagination of the audience, as the ship that is sailing both to heaven and hell carries them relentlessly onward, regardless of anything they do tc halt it. As the play opens, the ship is already at sea with its small list of passengers, but none of them notices anything strange about the voyage or surroundings, each being wrapped up in his own prob lems. An awareness of the situ ation creeps slowly into the con sciousness of one passenger, Tom Prior, a proud young wastrel who cynically is tired of life: but he has difficulty in convincing the remaining passengers that they are all dead. There are two mysterious lovers aboard, however, who seem to be at least half aware of what is go ing on, but they have no desire to be with anyone but each other, and they have a dread secret be tween them that forces them into silence. The part of Tom Prior is played by Jerry Allen, and the two young lovers are portrayed by Rosamond Bromley and Nash Parker. Also aboard the ship are Mrs. Midget, an ignorant cockney charwoman, played by Betty Jean McCleod. who accepts her fate optcmistically, knowing that she has led a good life; Mrs. Cliveden - Banks, haughty and snobbish society wo man, who cannot realize the seri ousness of the situation. Virginia Trigg portrays Mrs. Banks.

Fifty-two pieces of work will be on display, all by Daniels, who graduated from Elon with the Class of 1946. He ma.iored in art and business administration and made an excellent record here. A member of Alpha Pi Delta and Pi Gamma Mu and of Dr. John son’s Literary Society, he was named to collegiate “Who’s Who.” Since entering the Abbott School of Art in 1947, he has re ceived several scholarships and awards and has written and illus trated two children’s books, one of which is ready for the press. He attends school six months of the year and works as a bookkeep er for a tobacco buyer tlie other months. He is to graduate in June with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts. The exhibit, probably the most beautiful ever shown at Elon, consists of landscapes, seascapes, street scenes, portraits and illus trations in water color, charcoal, ink and pencil. His work portrays phases of both comedy and trag edy. Also included will be some commercial work.

Members of the squad, in addition to the three All-Confei'ence members, were Ike Fesmire, John Causey, center; and Jim Abbitt, Ben Lillien and Claude Lawrence, guards. Scores were not nearly so high in those pre-War years, but the three highest scorers for the sea son were Lloyd Whitley, 172 points: Hal Bradley, 167 points: and Ike Fesmire, 120 points. They fall far short of the individual leaders of the years since the War, for Elon’s all-time and single season scoring mark was set by Roney Cates, who tallied 457 points during the 1947 season. Adult Ni^ht Classes No iv In Progress Dr. W. W. Sloan poir.ted to ?^dnlt education as oa,- 'jf the answers to the present emergency as Elon opened its fiftli series of adult night cla'ises o'l Tue-^^day night of ^liis week. These claii-:-: '"i ' continue four nights each v.ecj for the next twelve weeks. He stated that any person ovo ■ eighteen years of age is eligible for enrollment ■ in these adulc classes, regardless of whether they have a high school diploma or not. The courses may be taken wit’a or without credit, such credit to be used toward a college degree o; for renewal of teacher certifi cates. The series opened last nighi with a course in adolescent psy chology, by Prof. Gilbert Latham. Other courses are spoken Rus sian, by Dr. Konstantinas Avizonis, on Wednesdays; Shakespeare’s plays, by Dr. James Howell, and educational history, by Prof. J. C. Colley, on Thursdays; an'i a New Testament course, by Dr. W. W. Sloan, on Friday nights. The officers who guide the destinies of the Senior Class of lo.jl on the Elon campus are shown grouped about the historic “Senior Oak,” vvhich has served as an anchor and inspiration to so many generations of Elon sti^dents. The senior leaders in the picture deft to right) are Ray McKenzie, of Gibsonville, vice-presi dent: Tessie Taylor, of Reidsville, secretary; Bob Oldham, of Erwin, president. President Fowler is no new hand at the execu tive post, for he has previously served as president of his class during his sophomore year, and last year he was president of the nt-ideri* body, the first to hold that post under the new campus constitution. Each of the other ssenior officers, too, has played a prominent part in campus life during the past four years. A v/£’ccrr;e Awaits You At ACME DRUG, Inc. AND MA^N ST. DRUG,Inc BURLINGTON, N. C.
