Company Gives
Don Pasquale
Tuesday, February 16, at 8:30
p.m., the Doldowsky Opera Com
pany will present Don Pasquale in
Don Pasquale is an opera buffa
in three acts, that is, it deals with
the lower classes. Composed by
Gaetano Donizetti, a contemporary
of Verdi, the setting is Rome in
the nineteenth century. The main
characters are Don Pasquale, an
old bachelor; his nephew Ernesto;
Norino, a beautiful young widow
and beloved of Ernesto; and Dr.
Malatesta, a friend of the family.
The plot surrounds the young
lovers whose marriage is opposed
by Don Pasquale. With the help
of Dr. Malatesta, they contrive a
plan which will win the consent of
the uncle.
The Goldovsky Opera Company
originated in Boston in 1946 as an
opera theatre which would provide
talented young singers with oppor
tunities to gain the performing ex
perience, essential to their future
success. Since then it has been
famous for its experimental tech
niques and search for new operatic
material. The basic creed of the
Goldovsky Opera Theatre can be
summarized in one phrase: unified
and homogeneous musical and the
atrical style.

Five New Members Join
Faculty For Second Term
This semester five new members
have joined the Salem College
faculty. Dr. James C. McDonald
comes to Salem from Wake
Forest and teaches one Biology 2
Lab. Miss Evabelle Covington,
formerly the head of Economics-
Sociology Department at Salem,
has returned to teach Economics
330, Personal Finance. Dr. Karl
M. Scott, also from Wake Forest,
is teaching the Principles of Eco
nomics classes this semester.
Mr. James I. Waller, former
Chief of Police, is conducting the
Criminology classes. Mr. Waller is
also the head of the Winston-
Salem Public Safety Department.
Mrs. Pollyanna G. Stewart, the
new Home Economics faculty
member, is replacing Mrs. Honey
cutt this semester. Mrs. Stewart
has filled in at various times for

lina spoke on religion in the Scien
tific Age. Dr. Boyd admitted im
mediately that this is the Scientific
Age, but science can go only so far
in explaining certain, definite facts.
Science cannot explain goodness,
truth, or beauty. He went on to
say that we should not lose our
awe, reverence, and wonder of life.
We should also have an awareness
of the divine element and must
prepare ourselves to receive the
divine.
In reading The Bible, sensory
perception and intelligence are
used. But only when we apply
insight are we able to understand
what it says.
Beauty, truth, and goodness are
necessary in order to live. These
are given to us by divine revela
tion and without it the desire to
live leaves. We must learn to see
the distant light shining through
the darkness and follow it until we
reach our goal. Christ can give
the answers that science and philo
sophy cannot provide.
Dr. Bernard Boyd
