IR S Program Provides
Opportunity For Creativity
On November 3 IRS spon
sored a dance featuring Main
stream at the American Legion.
The next day the group organ
ized a Mountain Day at Hanging
Rock. These events were part of
the IRS plan to offer several
smaller weekends in place of the
traditional one weekend in the
spring. Several commented on
the weekend and the IRS plan
for other similar weekends:
Margaret Brinkley: I definite
ly prefer smaller weekends. The
party Friday night was super;
everybody had a good time. I
think there is an advantage to
socializing occasionally with girl
friends and their dates rather
than always with your date and
his friends. 1 finally had a chance
to meet the guys I’ve heard so
much about.
Suzanne Troxler: Mountain
Day was a flop because a lot of
people couldn’t even find where
the food was and there was a
question about finding rides
back. 1 think it would have been
fun if we had met as a group to
gether first. The band was good
Friday night though. It was awk
ward after the dorms closed
Saturday night because the Stu
dent Center was locked and
there was no place to go.
Marjorie Richmond: 1 prefer
three weekends to one large one
because it means Salem can offer
more social life. If you miss one
weekend you don’t feel that
your money is completely was
ted because there will be. other
functions later.
Elizabeth Foust: I enjoyed
the party, but I felt that the fa-

cilities were too small for the
number of people there.
Lynda Casanova: I loved it! I
thought it was great! I was so
tired after the plays that I had
one drink and zonked out!
Nan Wilson: I’m glad I went.
The band was great Friday night,
and it was fun because there
weren’t so many people that it
was too crowded. I enjoyed
Mountain Day because it was so
pretty, even if there weren’t
many people there. The advan
tage to having one large week
end is that everyone makes ah
attempt to come then.
Susan Noble: I really like it.
I thought it was the best IRS
event I’ve ever gone to. The mu
sic was good to dance to.
Sarah Huff: I thought the
band was good, but the next
time I think it should be a dres
sy event. So seldom do we dress
up that it would have been fun
for a change. I’m looking for
ward to a good concert.
Bebe Gravely: It was abso
lutely smashing!
Caroline Lacey: It was a ball!
Cathy Hunsucker: It was a
knock-out! (Ask Beeb).

Nutcracker Suite
School Of Arts To Perform
With City Symphony Orchestra
by Rosalyn Cobb
The seventh annual produc
tion of The Nutcracker Suite will
be presented at Reynolda Audi
torium on the following dates:
Friday, December 8, at 8 p.m.;
Saturday, December 9, at 2 p.m.
and 8 p.m.; Sunday, December
10 at 2 p.m. It will be presented
by the North Carolina School of
the Arts dance department
(Robert Lyndgren, director) and
the Winston-Salem Symphony
(John luele, conductor).
The Nutcracker Suite is a fa
vorite Christmas ballet set to
music by the Russian Composer,
Tchaikovsky. The story involves
a little girl who receives a nut
cracker at a Christmas party given
by her parents. The gift is in the
shape of a toy soldier. After the
party is over and the guests have
bade their hosts farewell, the
child goes to the living room to
find her special toy. She falls
asleep and in her dreams, the
nutcracker comes to life. It takes
the child to magic worlds of de
light: to the snow country,
where snow flakes dance for her;
to the Kingdom of Candy, where
a celebration is held in her honor
at the Palace of Sweets; and to
many other delightful realms of
a child’s imagination. These and
the other voyages are imagina
tively described through the ex
citing music, the extraordinary
dance performance by the NCSA
dancers, and the elaborate stage
design which asways accompan
ies The Nutcracker Suite.
