Carl Holty Is
Stimulus For
Broader Scopes
By Betty Rene Webster
The Rondthaler Lectureship Pro
gram has, since it was set up in
1952, brought to Salem’s campus
guests of “interest and recogni
tion” These guests stay on the
campus for two days usually, dur
ing which time they address the
student body as a whole and m
small discussion groups or organi
zations. , , •
Our first visitor for this year was
Mr. Carl Robert Holty of the As
sociation of American Colleges Art
Program.
Mr. Holty attended the Milwau
kee Art School, Chicago Art In
stitute, National Academy of De
sign in New York, and furthered
his study at the Royal Academy
and Hoffman School in Munich,
Germany. Since then he has
worked with the abstraction-crea
tion group in Paris, where his work
was exhibited for three years. He
has lectured and taught in colleges
and has done some writing for Art
magazines, such as Design.
Mr. Holty’s first address to the
student body was Tuesday, Oct. 25,
for assembly. During this time he
could only toy with his topic, "The
Role of Art in Modern Society.
He discussed creativity, the essence
of art, conformity in life and art,
and the premises and purposes of
art.
Tuesday night a panel composed
of representatives of other fields
of art, drama, architecture, and
music aided Mr. Holty in discus
sing, “Is there a common core that
binds Art under the title ‘Mo
dern’ ?” No final agreement was
reached as to whether there is, or
if so, what that “common core” _is.^
It was, however, an aid and in
spiration to further thought by the
students.
It was a pleasure to have Mr.
Holty on campus. I did not inter
view him, so to speak; but I had
an after dinner talk with him
which I am sure was more enjoy
able.
He is a well adjusted, realistic
individual with many fields of in
terest and knowledge. We talked
about Europe, language, the South,
ancestry, and Moravian history.
He finally met a Moravian student
and proceeded to tell us more about
Moravians than we could tell him.
IRS Reminder
The IRS wishes to remind you
that hitting on glasses with silver
ware in the dining room is un
necessary and rude. In order to
maintain quiet only the bell near
the faculty table is to be used.
Miss White
(Continued from page one)
have found her in Miss Louise
White, who will join our faculty
as assistant professor of educa
tion.” Miss White has had exten
sive training and experience in the
work she will do.
She is from Thomasville, but is
a native of Statesville. She got an
A.B. degree in primary education
at Woman’s College and a master’s
degree in education at the Univer
sity of North Carolina. She taught
four years in High Point, two
years at Summit School here, two
years at Curry Training School in
Greensboro, and last year as Pub
tic Schools Supervisor in Thomas
ville.
During the first semester at
Salem she will teach remedial read
ing and work with city and county
teachers in the college’s cooperative
practice teaching program. During
the second semester Miss White
will teach elementary methods,
techniques, child psychology, and
remedial reading and will supervise
■ students in their practice teaching.
As I limped lamely out the door
Miss White grinned and called,
“Please, Bebe, don’t write the
article until you feel much more
rested!”

M. T.: I feel that it is very
flattering because girls are so much
more critical of other girls’ looks.
B. G.: I think it was nice; I
think it would have been even
nicer if there had been some men
there.
8. How do you feel about being
a (blonde) (brunette) (May Queen)
(Maid of Honor) in the May Dell?
M. T.; I’ll do well to have any
thing but grey hair left after the
annual goes out.
B. G.: Feel fine.
9. What do you feel has been
the best preparation for your new
title ?
M. T.: Hours and hours of sleep.
B. G.; Vivian Fasul’s superb
hair-styling and the sophisticated
atmosphere of Bitting Basement.
