could, the whole of central Euro
pean culture,” stated Hans Rothe,
visiting lecturer in the department
of Dramatic Art at the University
of North Carolina, who spoke on
The Influence of Shakespeare on the
European Continent, in Saint
Mary’s auditorium February 6.
Leading translator of Shakespeare
and historian of the stage, Rothe
has studied at the Universities of
Edinburgh, Munich, Leipzig, Berlin,
and Rostock. He was formerly art
director of the Deutsches Theater in
Berlin, but left the country when
he disagreed with Fascist Decrees
concerning the theater.
Mr. Rothe traced the influence of
Shakespearean drama on the Euro
pean nations, with emphasis on Ger
many, the country which “fell hard
est for Shakespeare. He, more
than any other author, made the
German stage.”
• In his discussion of translations,
he. declai’ed that “No work can ever
be rendered in its original value by
a translation, as a translator gives
his version as he understands the
work.” Rothe’s own approach is
less from the romantic j)oint of view
and more from the standpoint of the
theaterman.
Mr. Rothe advised students to ap
proach Shakespeare, not with the
idea that they must rvorship his
work as a classic, but with the real
istic view that he is a man who
really has something to say.
Ill a practice basketball game
in which every member of both
squads saw action the Mu’s de
feated the Sigma’s 37 to 20 Mon
day night
The first quarter ended with the
Mu cagers leading 10 to 6. At this
point the substitutions began, and
neither team did much scoring in
the second canto.
Led by the accurate shooting of
Nellie Truslow and Aurelia Ful
ton, the Mu’s scored 23 points in
the second half. Rose Taylor and
Nannie Moore were high scorers
for the Sigma’s.
Crippled by the loss of their
captains—Lucinda Edwards, Mu,
and Dot Teague, Sigma, ivlio were
in the infirmary—both teams were
below their usual standards.
Because this was a practice
game, it ivill not affect either
team’s record. The tournament,
ivhich will decide the basketball
championship of Saint Mary’s, ivill
be played at a later date.

Students Reveal Beliefs in Racial
Equality in Regard to Education
Since the problem of racial
equality has been discussed so
much the past few years, the ques
tion was put before some Saint
Mary’s students: “Do you think
Negroes should be allowed to at
tend state supported white univer
sities?”
Barbara Miller: No, because of
my own prejudices and because
of those instilled in me by my up
bringing. However, I do believe
in offering Negroes schools where
they may prepare for any field
they wish to enter.
Chris Price: Given the same
chance, many Negroes have
equalled and occasionally sur
passed Avhite people in mentality
and ability. For this reason, 1 be
lieve that every opportunity and
advantage given the whites
should be given to them. Features
and dark skins should be no cri-

Giving the background and rea

things that should be so dear to
them. He challenged girls to gain
