ON CAMPUS
By Harvey Davis
"Rachel, Rachel" is the portrait of a middle
aged spin ster facing her "last ascending year.
Rachel is an elementary school teacher in
a small mid-western town. She is the daughter
of a stern and overbearing undertaker, whose
sombre mood overshadows his family life.
Having been raised in this atmosphere as a
child, Rjchel is an object of ridicule to
her peer group. She finds her best company
in her dreams.
She I ives out her mature years as an
extreme introvert. For company, there is
only her mother and a spinster companion
with lesbian tendencies.
Rachel, in fear of a declining future,
makes an attempt to break out into the
world of reality. She achieves this by means
of a compromising affair with a city
school teacher. She wants to become a more
creative person by childbirth if by no other
way.
The superb acting of Joanne Woodward
and the many talents of Paul Newman in his
first role as producer-director make this
film one of rare quality and insight.

Hello folks, here I am again trying to give
you some entertainment In this, your column.
Last week after untold troubles and five
hours of work, I turned my column in to be
printed. This week's assignment proved
equally rough.
Let's start talking about the Student Union
(Moore Center). This year it is far better
than ever before. Under the hand of Fred
Greene, it has become a swinging place to
go anytime.
Someone told me that spring was the time
of year for lovers. Here at Montreat I
find it different. All the changing colors
covering the mountains make for a romantic
atmosphere. But, as I look at the mountains,
I notice a few couples are too busy to see the
colors... Is that true BOB and JUDY?
ATTENTION; THE INMEN ARE BACK.
For all of you who saw them last year they
are returning to bring you some more of their
fine entertainment. Those who did not see
them last year are in for a real mon-treat.
I have heard that TINA is really keeping
an eye on those freshmen gals in College Hall
this year. Good luck, Tina.
Intramurals this year seem a bit on the
rough side. How about that DAVID, SAM and
JEFF? The infirmary Is taking care of them
now.
Preparing for the opening game against
Brevard, the soccer team elected David
Walters and Steve Gragg as its captain.
David , the right insider, and Stever, the
center halfback, have proven themselves as
leaders and should afford the leadership
needed to direct the team to a winning
season.
We are still without outside lights in
New Hall. We do not want broken legs
on campus.

With the arrival on Montreat-Anderson
College campus next week of Donney and
Rudd, the first version of the College Coffee
House will be underway for the new session.
The entertainers who are to be sponsored by
Fellowship Hall will be here for three days,
beginning Thursday, October 3. In the
evenings they will provide programs of
contemporary and pop music and through the
day they will be available for conversation
about the worlds of music and entertainment.
Montreat-Anderson College can take
justifiable pride in the fact that it was one
of the initial group of eight colleges and
universities of this southeast region which
introduced the Coffee House concept to the
campus. The fact that there are now over
160 participating colleges in this area
points to the enthusiastic acceptance of the
original venture. By this means, a new
dimension has been brought to the concept
of entertainment for college residents.
The entertainers come from the Bitter End
Cafe In New York and appreciate this
opportunity to perform before attentive and
appreciative audiences. Through this kind
of exposure many of them have broken into
big time entertainment on a national scale.
Such was the beginning for Peter, Paul and
Mary, Josh White, Sr., the Serendipity
Singers and many other well established
groups. Montreat-Anderson College
sophomores will recall visits from last year
of Brian Carney, Roun McKinnon and Jake
Holmes. They will remember also that no
charge was made for the entertainment, a
tradition which will be continued this year.
Where would you like to travel during the
coming year? Jamaica? Nassau? Europe?
Sking? The college union activities board
is surveying you, the students and faculty,
to see where your travel interests lie.
Trips are being planned for semester break,
spring vacation, early summer, and on
weekends throughout the year. These trips
are being planned in co-operation between
Montreat-Anderson College, the University
of South Carolina, and the First National
Bank Travel Service.
