Enchanting Was The Tempest By BETTY COOPER Our first Lyceum Program for the school year 1966-67 was The American Classical Theater’s pro duction of THE TEMPEST by Wil liam Shakespeare. The play was directed by Dennis Hayes. The leading roles of Prospero and Mi randa were played by Bryan Hull and Jan Rouse, respectively. All members of the cast were profes sionals. The scene of the play was an en chanted island in the Mediterran ean Sea. From the time Ariel caused King Alonso’s ship to be shipwrecked on this island, until the time Alonso gave his blessings to his son, Ferdinand, and Pros- pero’s daughter, Miranda, the aud ience was held captivated. The mood of the audience ranged from sympathy for King Alonso, because of the loss of his son, to open- hearted laughter at the hilarious comments of the jester. The costumes of the actors ran ged from silk gowns for Miranda to cotton rags for Caliban. There were loud colors for the jester that matched his mood. There were dull colors for the drunkard, sym bolizing his drunkenness. There were soft pink colors for Miranda, symbolizing her gentleness. The play was very interesting, and, as I have said before, held us captivated from beginning to end.

W. Seabrook Auditorium. The new men’s dormitory, new women’s dormitory and the new classroom building will take on the names of three people who have served the college well. The members of the Board of Trustees have selected the following names for the new buildings: Classroom Building, Emil Rosen thal Building; Dormitory for women, Dunie Bryant Hall; Dormi tory for men, Zebulon B. Vance Hall. Mr. Rosenthal is recognized for his genuine interest in the welfare of the college during his long ten ure of unselfish service as a trus tee which extended over 25 years. The new dormitory for men was named in honor of Governor i e oice FAYETTEVILLE STATE COLLEGE Vol. 20 No. 3 Fayetteville, North Carolina Saturday, Nov. 19, 1966 Vance, after whom was named the second oldest building on the cam pus, built in 1910 and demolished in 1957. The first state appropria tion was made for this institution during the administration of Gov ernor Vance and upon his recom mendation. Mrs. Dunie Bryant served as a dormitory matron for 26 years. She is held in high esteem by thou sands of alumni and former stu dents because of her devotion and unselfish service. The dedication of these three buildings will, in a more realistic sense, be a tribute to the toils of Dr. Rudolph Jones, our president, whose efforts are responsible for the acquiring of the new buildings. The ceremonies may further honor Dr. Jones as the formal ceremonies that he did not have upon his be coming president in 1956. These new buildings are symbols of the gains that he has made in the phy sical outlook of the college, but [they, at the same time, reflect academic progress. Guest speaker for the dedication program will be Dr. John Potts, President of Voorhees College. Dr. Jones will preside. The welcome will be extended by Dr. Malvin E. Moore, Jr., Dean of the College, and Mr. James Walker, President of the Student Government. Keys to these buildings will be presented by the architect and ac cepted by Mr. John H.

Mid-Terms Help Student and Teacher By SARAH BECTON The mid-term examinations were given at Fayetteville State College last week. They were tests of the knowledge and skills that the stu dent has acquired in the first nine weeks of study. The purpose of these examina tions was to let the student Icnow where he stood at the midway point and to let the teacher know whether or not he was using the most efficient method of teaching. The mid -term examinations are helpful to the student. After tak ing the tests and receiving the re sults from them, the student can get an idea as to what he did the first nine weeks and what he will have to do the remaining nine weeks of the semester in order to pass each of his courses. The mid term examinations were also help ful to the teacher. When he re ceived the results of these tests, the teacher knew whether his methods of teaching were the most efficient ones or whether he need ed to change them in any way to help the student advance. The thought of taking mid-term examinations was not a pleasant one, but they were beneficial to both the student and the teacher. These are two of the three new buildings to be dedicated Sunday.
