can help make . this effort
successful.
Choose an area crew or com
mittee closest to yur interest
and lend a helping hand-now!
This can be the most fun we’ve
had as a total community of fri
ends working together on a
worthwhile project to the enjoy
ment of everybody in Montreat.
Please report to any group list
ed ideas you may have about
beautification and clean - up.
Watch the bulletin board in the
cafeteria for announcements a-
bout work projects and other
scheduled activities. All groups
are urged to keep records of
their work so this can count in
the final competition.

cided to endorse the Mayor’s
proclamation which is attached

Days Until
Spring Break
He Is Here
Students have recently notic
ed a stately grey-haired man
within the confines of Gaither
Hall and wondered who he was.
Students, this gentleman is our
illustrious President, Dr. C.
Grier Davis. Yes, Dr. Davis has
finally come to Montreat-Ander-
son College. We, the students,
should welcome Dr. Davis to our
side of Lake Susan.
Possibly now Dr. Davis will
gain a better understanding of
our campus and its life. Some
load will be atken off of our effi
cient administration if it is only
the fact that they will not have
to write so many letters nor
make as many telephone calls.
The pulse of the campus will
at long last be felt by Dr. Davis
from Monday 8’ o’clock classes
to the last class on Friday. He
will be able to sense our feelings
toward mandatory convocations
and chapels as we solemnly
march past muttering obsenities
and derogatory remarks.
Our warm feelings toward
cafeteria food will at long last
be heard as we joyously file
down the steps to lunch.
No longer will we have to ask,
“I wonder what he does on the
other side of the lake?” We can
go to iiial office with pretty red
flowers and seek our answers.
We, the students, should take
time out to say, “Welcome, Dr.
Davis, to the twentieth century;
I hope you enjoyy your say.”

Angel Street
The Greybeard Players, who
brought laughter into Gaither,
will perform a masterpiece of
suspense in the form of a 3-act
play, “Angel Street”, March 18-
20. 'The cast, that consists of Ed
Cheshire, Betty Gayle Barkett,
Leon Rippy, Ellen Foster, and
Cam Culpepper, plan to leave
the audience spellbound by this
melodrama.
Angel Street, under the
guidence of Mark Steil, is a well-
written, well-directed, and well-
acted play, not to mention the
tremendous sound and lighting
effects that A1 Seitner, Vance
Cox, and Louis Anderson create,
The mood that is set by “.Angel
Street” is eerie and is one that
can keep you anchored to your
seat, bolt upright. The only other
clue I can give you is to see it
March 18, 19, 20.

They emphasise that the student

The New S. U.
There is a new addition on the
MAC campus. This is a grill that
has opened in the S. U. during
the past week. The grill has re
placed all of the food machines
that had previously been there.
The grill has been welcomed by
the students. This can be attest
ed to by the right of an over
crowded counter at 10:00 each
night. Also there is a greater
number of people in the S. U,
at that time.
The grill offers hamburgers,
hot dogs, french fries, ice cream,
cokes etc. According to several
students the food prepared is
quite good.
The food that I tasted was
delicious. Mr. Maggarid, the
manager and cook, is an extre
mely good cook. He is assisted
by several students, who takes
and fills orders.
I have found that the students
are very enthusiastic about the
grill. Apparently the grill so
far has been successful, and is
the opinion of several students
it is worth the time, money and
efforts put into it. It is hoped
that the grill will be here to
stay. But that will be up to the
sudent body.
