where one’s sentiments lie—for it
affects us all within, around, and
beyond the Square either directly
or indirectly.
This nationwide Moratorium
provides an excellent opportunity
to weigh issues, the facts, the
emotions—to filter as best we can
the truths from the untruths—to
|take issue with each other and with
ourselves—and to result in reasoned
and sure convictions.
No longer can this 18th century
Moravian Congregration town pro
vide a refuge from the pressing
problems of this world. Rather
symbolically, Salem College is
nestled within an historically
pacifistic community—and when the
issue is war, the ultimate solution
must be peace.
In the middle of this pacifist
center is the Square—and the
Square will be open (as it always
is) the entire day as the gathering
place for all who wish to boycott,
protest, discuss or meditate on the
situation in Vietnam. IRC urges
you to come out into the Square
throughout the day, but especially
between 12 noon and 2 p.m. to
discuss the issues in a “Hyde Park”
situation with impromptu speakers.
Whether you wish to boycott
classes, as most students partici
pating in the Moratorium across
the country will be doing, or
whether you will attend classes
with the hopes of a discussion is
your prerogative. I might suggest,
however, that you observe this day
with actions that most symbolize
your sentiments on the issue of
Vietnam.
Literature will be distributed a
day prior to the Moratorium, Tues
day, October 14, so that you will
have an opportunity to become
acquainted or reacquainted with
the issues and facts. A special
edition of The Salemite and some
mimeographed material available in
the foyer of Main Hall should
provide information if you feel, at
present, that your factual knowl
edge of the subject is not adequate
for a meaningful discussion.
It’s your day to utilize at your
will, but to ignore this day and
suppress the issue is unrealistic.
Your opportunity to be active,
expressive, and concerned is Wed
nesday, OCTOBER 15.
"No Exit”:
Alienation
Is Nell
The Pacific Repertory Company
will present Sartre’s “No Exit” on
October 23. The play itself prom
ises to be emotionally exhausting
as it deals with three souls who
have been condemned to live to
gether in hell.
Many students will remember the
Inspirational Players’, a subsidiary
of the Pacific Repertory Company,
production of “Cyrano de Bergerac”
on this campus last year. The
troupe director is Charles J. Gold
en, a graduate of Goldman Theatre
school, and the actor and actresses
are Bill Prior, graduate of Ford-
ham University, New York, B. J.
Gallon, and Anthony Herrera, who
studied with Agnes Moorhead and
Steller Adler. After the perform
ance the audience is cordially in
vited to have an informal chat with
members of the company.
This promises to be a real treat
for the Salem Campus and every
one is urged to come. Remember—
