By ROSALYN GRAHAM Despite the fact that students are staggering under the load of term papers and quizzes, books to digest, and lesson plans to write, Meredith does acknowledge the coming of April and the universal urge to get out under the spring sunshine. Lynn Dodge, Meredith Recre ation Association vice-president, has announced that Meredith College’s annual Playday has been scheduled for the afternoon of April 20, to gether with a new attraction, the Library Fund Carnival. When classes are dismissed at 1:00, everyone is invited to gather in the court for the festivities. Play- day this year will be not only the usual combination of Cornhuskin’ costumes and songs and a 4th of July field day, but with the Carni val it should have some of the ele ments of a county fair. Competition will be among dormi tories, each of which will be judged by its participation, costumes, song. Students ore reminded of the need for support of CRIA (Committee to Rescue Italian Art) For information See Mr. Leonard White or any art students. cheer, and by points earned in the individual events. The team sports events range from volleyball and softball to cut-throat bridge games while individuals may challenge members of other dorms to tennis, footraccs, or even checkers and will win at least some points for their dorm whether they win or lose. Many of the faculty members come out for Playday, and take part both in the song and cheer com petition and in the games. Last year Dr. Mary Lynch Johnson displayed an amazing skill at croquet while Mr. Bud Walker demonstrated his prowess at tennis. In addition to the traditional ac tivities of Playday, this year a carni val will be taking place at one end of the court. The Carnival, which is one of the fund-raising projects planned by the Library Fund Com mittee under the direction of Mary Arakas, will consist of booths set up by the various organizations on campus. For small fees, which will be donated to the Carlyle Campbell Library Fund, students, faculty members, and visitors will have an opportunity to purchase best sellers from the Colton English Club; ride ponies at the Hoffprint Club pony ring; have their fortune told at the Psychology Club booth; create a masterpiece at the Art Club’s studio; buy home-baked goodies at the Home Economics Club’s booth; buy stock from Tomorrow’s Business Women, becoming, thereby eligible for prizes; and throw darts at bal loon’s labeled with the names of familiar woes, such as Saturday classes, brown-nosing students, and freshman word studies, at the Day Students’ booth. John Brown’s Body, a combined effort of the music, English and speech, and physical education de partments, will be presented on April 14 and 15 at 8:00 p.m. in Jones Auditorium. There will be an open dress rehearsal April 13. Mrs. Ruth B. Phillips is in charge of co-ordinating the facets of the performance. Miss Beatrice Donley is directing the chorus, and Mrs. Francis Stevens is assisting with the dancers. As is evident from the title, the play is about the Civil War, “one of the most agonizing times in our civilization.” It was originally writ ten as an epic poem to be per formed by a chorus, three princi pal characters — two men and one woman — and two dancers. The parts have been reassigned in order for more Meredith students to par ticipate and to keep the parts from being too long and involved. Meredith girls serving in leading roles are Emily Lay, senior; Adri- anna Bailey, senior; and Bet Gar rett, sophomore. Suzanne Carpen ter, sophomore, will be the female dancer. Two of the male roles have been filled by Dwain See, a Shaw Uni versity student, and Simon Parker, a teacher at Broughton High School. Boys from the North Carolina State University Choral Society, mostly from the Varsity Choir, arc assisting with the chorus. Students in Mrs. Phillips’ play production class will serve as crew chiefs. The version being presented here is the one staged at the Yale Drama School. An off-Broadway produc tion has been performed under the direction of Curtis Canfield. The play is mainly a readers’ theater production in which most of the parts are read. Six different people will tell a long story, backed up with sound effccts. The tale is held together by two heroes, one a boy from Georgia, Clay Wingate; the other, a boy from Connecticut, Jack Ellyate. The play concerns their lives, the girls they love, and the people who affect their lives. The theme transcends the Civil War or any war. The author’s final analysis is that the war was the birth pangs of industrial America developing from an agricultural America. The author does not say whether the change is good or bad, just that America has changed. Dr. Heilman Announces Gift From Shell Assists Program Meredith College has received a check for $1,500 from the Shell Companies Foundation, New York. President E. Bruce Heilman said that a grant was received for use in three different phases of Mere dith’s overall educational program. A third of the money is unre stricted, for use in the general sup port program. Another third is for use by the dean to encourage aca demic development. The remainder is allocated for a specific depart ment and will be used at Meredith by the department of music. The Shell Assists program was established in 1958 and has been administered since that time by pro vision of S 1,500 annual gifts to se lected privately supported colleges and universities. MISS MONTANA (Continued from page 3) in the talent competition. In a fleeting three minutes Miss Frazier displayed her trophies and ribbons, explaining that riding is a talent, showed a film of her riding various types of horses, and then actually demonstrated her riding ability in the Miss America pag eant. Rubber mats had been laid out on the stage for the exhibition. Miss Frazier said she remembers the look on the face of the startled CHORUS TOUR (Continued from page 1) to Raleigh after a Thursday, March 23. performance at Green Street Baptist Church in High Point.
