THE TWIG
October 12, 1946
Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer pre
sents the most unusual picture
of the year. . . . “Three Wise
Fools.” Enchanting little Mar
garet O’Brien will steal your
heart in the most delightful pic
ture you have ever seen. She
stars with the year’s outstanding
dramatic cast including Lionel
Barrymore, Edward Arnold,
Lewis Stone, and Thomas
Mitchell. “Three Wise Fools” is
the delightfully different story
of a little Irish colleen who
walked uninvited into the lives
of three crusty, old bachelors
and walked off with their hearts.
The amusing dialogue, realistic
staging, and expert direction
help make another triumph for
the remarkable Miss O’Brien.
For excitement, laughs and
heart-warming tenderness, see
the new comedy-drama that will
put a smile in your heart . . .
coming soon to the Ambassador
Theatre as one of the season’s
outstanding productions.

IN THE LIBRARY
Have you been up to the
library? You have? Well, do
you realize just what a blessing
it is? Our school has a choice
selection of almost every type of
book imaginable — books for
reference, for relaxation, books
for study, and for leisure. All
of these are at your disposal.
Speaking of having access to
books reminds one of an excel
lent feature of the Meredith
College Library. If you have
ever been to a library that has
closed stacks, you will realize
what it is—yes, our library has
open stacks! Each student here
should realize what a blessing it
is to be able to go to the stacks
and get her own books. Just in
case you can’t find what you
want, there are library assistants
who can and do want to help
you. You say you want to know
the regulations? They really
aren’t complicated. The proper
way to get a book is just to sign
out for it—whether for use in
the library or outside. If you
take books off the shelves, turn
them down when you replace
them. Inter-library loans are
requested through the librarian’s
office. These regulations, while
simple, need to be observed. So
come on up, let’s use our library!
Something new has been
added on the Meredith College
campus. A brand new depart
ment in speech and play has
been added to the curriculum.
The speech course, speech 23,
24 and the course in play pro
duction, or speech 25, include
the study and application of the
fundamentals of correct speak
ing and a general survey of the
technicaliber of play production.
Included in the speech course
are the survey of proper produc
tion of speech sounds, the
physiology of speech general re
laxation exercises, an emphasis
on the development of chest ex
pansion and a pleasing voice, im
provement of diction, assimila
tion of the various consonants
and normal sounds, and practice
of good breathing, the latter
being the basis of a good speak
ing voice, according to Miss
Hilderman, the new speech in
structor. As the courses progress,
reading for the projection of
sounds will be practiced along
the stress being put on interpre
tation, rhythm, and phrasing.
Later on pubilc speaking will
be practiced with records being
made to record progress.
In the survey of the play, an
interpretation of the production
will be studied from the stand
point of the director. The stu
dents will be led in mastering
the technical elements by means
of which the students can stage
a play. Reading of various types
of 1 and 3 act plays will be in
cluded with emphasis on the pro
duction of the play. There are
nine enrolled in the play course
and in the two sections in speech,
are 12 and 15.
Phis Win Struggle
For N ew Members

Comes To City
With a count of 72 to 55, the
Philaretian Society was vic
torious over the Astros in gain
ing new members. Climaxing
Rush Week fun was the hilarious
chapel exercise on Decision Day
last Saturday. The victory for
the Phi’s compensated for their
loss last year. New girls had
been rushed strenuously during
the week, and the breakfast
Saturday morning gave indica
tions of the Phi victory.
The same concert that is going
to be heard on the stage at the
Memorial Auditorium, October
18 when Tito Guizar and his Pan-
American Ensemble introduce
audiences here to the “Romantic
Mexico of Yesterday” and “The
Gay Mexico of Today,” will be
given at Carnegie Hall on
October 12. Earlier Guizar had
appeared in the great Hollywood
Bowl with the Los Angeles
Philharmonic orchestra and won
new acclaim.
Tito Guizar is the interna
tionally famous tenor, star of
stage, screen, concert and radio,
whose voice has sold more
records south of the border than
any other artist with the excep
tion of Caruso.
In his concert here he will
head a distinguished company
of singers, dancers and musi
cians all of whom are outstand
ingly well known in the South
American countries and who
have been brought to this coun
try by Tito Guizar for the first
time.
The program this year is an
innovation in Latin-American
entertainment. From the arias
and folk songs of his native
Mexico which Tito Guizar will
sing to the Spanish Sinfoneta
orchestra and the colorful cos
tumes of fiesta time of the cast
and the $8,000 Charro costume
Tito Guizar himself will wear,
every detail of the presentation
will be just as the audience here
might see and hear it if the
concert were given in Rio, for
instance, and we North Ameri
cans were vacationing down
there.
Those who like Tito Guizar
in the popular vein will not be
disappointed either, for he sings
many of the popular numbers he
has made famous including

Verne Harris; and those to work
on Stunt will be Dot Phillips,
Betty Moore, and Emily Poole.

These are highlights of where

can give further information
about other members of the
