C., Friday, March 15, 1968 Salemites Meet Dublhier roughs Freyer’s Lecture New Asian Studies program to be offered. See page 2. Friday, March 15, 1968 Dr. Grattan Freyer, lecturer and critic from County Mayo, Ireland, spoke in assernbly March 13, as a Rondthaler lecturer on “What Sort of Man was James Joyce?” Speaking with a catching British accent. Dr, Freyer concentrated on Joyce’s life as a young man and ^mpared him extensively with the Other great 20th century Irish writ er, W. B. Yeats. ■|Dr. Freyer cited Yeats as a poet, of a well-to-do country background, Protestant and seventeen years, old er than Joyce, while Joyce wrote prose, was of a poor urban envir onment, and was Catholic, Con cerning style, the speaker noted the continual influence of historical oc- currances upon Yeats whereas the exciting intellectual events of Joyce’s life occurred by the age of . 21. Although, Joyce occasionally referred to Yeats in his writings, when they first met Joyce said, have met too late. You are too old," but the two men, both so dedicated to their work, became friends and helped each other later. . Dr. Freyer commented on Joyce’.s later admiration, for his shiftless, drinking father and read from Step hen Hero, an early version of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man to show his relationship with his devout mother. To emphasize Joyce’s focus on the mind rather than external af fairs, Dr. Freyer quoted his state ment “I will not serve,” in relation to church and country as Joyce saw both inhibiting his mind. Reading from one of Joyce’s let ters to his “wife,” Nora Ilarnacle, Dr. Freyer showed how Joyce had transferred his boyhood devotion to the Virgin Mary to a devotion of Nora in manhood. Dr. Freyer summed up Joyce’s goals as a writer as trying to show life wholly, without inhibitions, at tempting to present structural har mony in his works as he did in Ulysses, and as trying to create a radiance within his work near per fection by continual revision even when his eyesight was failing. Med. Tech. Salemites Sallie Thomas (left) and Elizabeth Wilhelm (right) give Nancy Lineberger the full treatment. Will Nancy sur vive? led Tech Students Find ork Proves Stimulating By Pat Carter you think 8 a.m. classes are Md, how would you like to have to M at work at 6:50 a.m. every other TOrning? If you asked Nancy Line- ^■■Rer this question, she would tell you that she just loves it. Nancy, Sallie Thomas, and Elizabeth Wil- nelm are all medical technology Rodents at Bowman Gray School of Medicine. These Salemites find .heir work very rewarding, interest- '^^^henging’ and demanding. •During their year at Bowman f^y, they study in four major areas ot rotations; each rotation lasts for en weeks. The first five weeks of * I rotation consist mainly of con- etntrated study about variqus labor- * ®ry procedures and disease condi- ••ts. For the remaining five weeks, ® girls work in the laboratory and j ^slly apply what they have learn- *n the first five weeks of study. The rnain function of a medical tif is to analyze the pa- Or tissues. The clinical doV* these analyses help the illn diagnose the patient’s Currently Nancy is on hem- try ’’Otation; Sallie is in chemis- (h ’ fElizabeth is in bacteriology ; spe rotation includes work in tests and a five week rotation ‘he blood bank. The girls begin a typical day in the various labs by arriving in the wards every other day at 6:50 a.m. to draw blood from the patients; these blood samples are studied later in the lab oratory. Classes begin at 8:30, and around 5 p.m. three very tired Sal emites call it a day. Although the w'ork is extremely demanding, it has many advantages: the classes are small which permits close student- teacher contact; in fact, two of the instuctors are alumnae of Salem, class of ’64. There is also an opport unity for meeting the patients, and the rotations every ten weeks add variety to the schedule. The medical students at Bowman Gray also pro vide an interesting spark of variety. For eight weeks, the medical tech nology students will teach the sopho more medical students hematology. Nancy, Elizabeth, and Sallie will take their comprehensive exams on May 24, and if they pass them, they will graduate that night. In July, the girls will take the state examina tion for registry as medical tech nologists. After twelve months of ygi*y hard work, each of these Sal emites has bright plans for the fu ture. Sallie will put her knowledge to work in Winston-Salem, and Nancy and Elizabeth are planning weddings. Hill, Miller, Whittinghill To Speak On The Dehumanization Of Man DR. WARREN HILL “The Dehumanization of Man,” Salem’s Symposium to be held April 4-5, will feature as speakers Dr. Warren T. Hill, Dr. Arthur R. Miller, and Dr. Maurice Whitting hill.

The recital will begin at 8:15 in Hanes Auditorium. This is Mr. Brennan’s first year as a member of Salem’s factulty, and those of us who are his stud ents admit, not without pride, that he is a fanatic on technique and adept at practicing what he preach es. If you overhear a music major talking about “eagle” exercises (or see her flapping), nine guesses out of ten prove she will be referring to one of Mr. Brennan’s un-loos- eners. Though he speaks French more fluently than English at times, Mr. Brennan is an American, originally hailing from up-state New York. He received his training in key board and theory at an early age from his mother, who was a singer and pianist. At ten he began tak ing piano under Stuart Ross of the Manhattan School of Music. His studies were interrupted by service in the Second World War and again in the Korean War, but he was able to continue privately for six months of that time under German instructors in Berlin. The three years after completion of his mili tary service were spent at the Paris Conservatory, the Vienna Conserv atory, and the Academic Musicale Chigiana in Sienna, Italy. Three years of teaching and concertizing in New York and New England followed. He gave his debut per formance in New York at Carnegie Hall in 1957. In 1959, he was settled in his old stomping ground, Paris, teach ing and giving concerts in the ma jor capitals of Europe. He and his French wife, Catherine, decided in 1967 to come back to the United States with their small son, Eric. Salem appealed to him because of the excellent reputation of its School of Music. - ■ "T:, IM DR. ARTHUR MILLER turbed individuals in three neuro psychiatric hospitals in the New England area.

For some lucky girls there is the assurance of mail; for others there is hope and, if nothing else, the prospect of a slimming walk. How ever, a new look to the familiar pathway is history discovered, an excavation sight on Main Street just below the Square. For those Salemites who might be curious, Frank Horton of Old Salem Restoration explained the reasons and projected results of the digging. Early maps were a clue to the location of the house which was built by Travgott Bagge in 1787. Mr. Bagge, proprietor of the com munity store diagonally across Main Street, built the residence for his shopkeeper, George Biewighawsen, because of the proximity of the lot to the store. Originally, this was a stone house with a tile roof and a plastered front like the community store. A reconstruction of the dwelling is planned in the coming year. Presently the chimney base, stair base, and other areas have been un covered; the exact dimensions of the house are still undetermined, Salemites have commented that there might be something under the sidewalk; if so, according to Mr. Horton, the house will reclaim its original location. However, whether the sidewalk remains or the Bagge House stands, the Post Office will still attract Salemites. Anyone for new scenery ?
