THE SALEMITE February 23, Yarborough, Crew Create ^ccbhi SpCClhs Otl Qj Prop For Pierrette Play Jewish Holidays In Assemhl y Rabbi Jerome Tolochko of Kins ton spoke to Salemites about “Jew ish Holidays Have an Interdenomi national Meaning” in assembly Feb ruary 21. The Rabbi appeared rep resenting the Jewish Chautauqua Society which promotes better understanding of Jews and Judaism through education. After being introduced by Dr. Mary Hill, Rabbi Tolochko dis cussed several Jewish holidays and their relation to non-Jewish re ligions using amusing and meaning ful anecdotes to illustrate his points. He said that no matter where one is, nor what denomination, he can observe every Jewish holiday with out infringing on his own faith and come out a better person. The first feast he spoke of was Yom Kippur celebrating the Day of Atonement on which Jews must fast for 24 hours. The Rabbi used this fasting to illustrate that if a person cannot deny himself food for this period of time, then how can he resist greater temptations. Rabbi Tolochko used the feast of the Passover to illustrate contem porary relations through biblical stories. He expressed his support to the right of dissention but not disagreement on the government’s policy in Viet Nam by stressing loyalty to one’s country. He said that one should “pick fresh every day one’s loyalty to one’s country, as the Jews picked manna freshly in the wilderness because anything worth having is worth having fresh. The Feast of Light, Hanukkah, exemplified the Machibean rebellion against the Syrians which produced 100 years of peace. But the Rabbi noted that although men have al ways fought for religious freedom, today there is still no religious free dom behind the iron curtain. The time of the giving of the Ten Commandments is the Feast of Weeks in the Jewish faith. The Rabbi emphasized that this code is still a basic one in our society be cause there can never be liberty without law. The Rabbi ended by commenting on issues such as the relation of ANNOUNCEMENT Elections for Editor-in-Chief of The Salemite will be held Thursday, February 29, immediately after din ner in The Salemite office.

James Bray, as Valentine Brose, rehearses atop the steam-spout ing boiler for the Pierrettes production Eh? - Choice - - Sports - By Barbara Fields Eh? Yes, Eh? is the title of the play to be given by the Pierrettes, March 6-9 at 8 p.m., in Hanes Auditorium. Recently I talked to Dr. Mary Homrighous in the FAC and Mr. Yarborough in Salem’s boiler room to find out about the plans being made for the produc tion. The reason I talked to Mr. Yar borough is that he and his men made the boiler that will be used on the set of EK? The boiler, de signed by Connie Sorenson, is made of sheet metal and plywood, and it looks just tike a real one. It has lights that go on and off, cog wheels, a water and pressure gauge, and it even shoots steam into the air. This boiler’s only real differ ence from a real one is in what s inside. Whereas a regular boiler has coal, water, and pipes, this boiler has Susan Greene and Sandy Ctiipcppcr inside. .\s you may have guessed, the play takes place in the boiler room of a modern, or should I say, ‘mod, factory. Among the many sound cues in the play is the generating of music each time the boiler room door opens. This factory believes that MUSAK, the piping in of music, will create a better working - Phi Alpha Theta - (Continued from Page 1) opportunities to apply and qualify for certain graduate scholarships. The papers and research of mem- atmbsphere. There are even dif ferent typos of music for different times of the day. If the factory is mod, the char acters are even ‘moder.’ Costumes designed by Celia Watson, include a black vinyl patent dress for the secretary, a shocking pink satin wedding dress, and a shocking pink mini-negligee with black ostrich feathers. What does all this have to do with a boiler room ? Don’t ask me —just go see for yourself! Students n;ay pick up their tickets after as sembly, Friday, March 1.

The President ended the meeting by wishing the students and CHOICE 68 success. Campus Coordinator Hannah Nicholson said that voting would take place during certain hours at established voting booths to be an nounced at a later date. Dalton Collection Shown; Varied Media Presented By Patti Hay On exhibit now in the Fine Arts Center is a painting collection be longing to Harry Dalton of Char lotte. It features oils mainly, with still life paintings, portraits, ab stracts, and a few examples that border on surrealism. Among the more interesting paintings are two by members of the famous Wyeth family, Pisarro, and John Singer Sargent. The water color by Sargent entitled “Moorings” paints a quiet evening scene in subdued browns and blues. In contrast to this, “The Echo of the El ’ by Robert Anderson, a con temporary American artist, is of the abstract style, showing a large, colorful city thundering with the bustle of the “El” trans. Other ab stracts include one by Corrie Mc- Callum called “Toledo, Spain,” and one by Nicholas Simbari titled “Courtyard in Venice.” Both are bold with unusual, bright colors. There are also some in softer, more conventional style. For ex ample, Philip Jamison depicts the softness of a flower still-life in reds and russets. John Constable paints a “Cloud Study” in white with a hint of yellow sun lurking behind evening greys. Among the more thought-proyok- ing paintings are Serge Clement’s “Girl in Meditation” and Theodore Ribot’s “Head of an Old Woman.” Although dissimilar in styles, these two are, among several others, more than just pretty. Everything is represented at the present exhibit—every style, every mode of thinking. The dates of the pictures range from the 1800’s up to the 1960’s. This extraordinary collection is well worth the long trek to the Fine Arts Center.

He cited the tendent of men to blame God for tho^ things for which either man is sponsible or which occur as the nr' duct of circumstances. He saidtht a man’s job is to make the worlj better than it was when he entered it, and he therefore criticized those who scorned churches because of the hypocrisy of their members.
