BELLES OF ST. MARY^S January 19, 1962 EXAMS ARE HERE! In only two more days exams will begin, one whole semester — one- half of the school year — has gone by. For those students who have not studied and do not have a sound, well-founded knowledge, the exami nation period is one of frustration and even sheer panic. The others, and let us hope the majority, face the exams confidently knowing that they have learned what they were supposed during the past semester. For these, the examination period is a time when their efforts are recognized and given due credit. No matter how prepared a student is for exams, a little extra study always helpful. The following are a few tips on how to study for exams; 1. Divide the material to be covered into logical divisions. IS 2. Read through all your notes several times. .3. 4. 0. Skim as much basic material as possible. Try to spot the important things that may appear on the exam. Get plenty of rest so you will be alert. In order that studying be made an easier task for all, let’s please remember to maintain quiet on the halls. If you do not need to study or have decided to finesse the whole “mess”, please be considerate of the others who must study. These exams are very important for many girls. GOOD LUCK!! DR. EDWARDS SPEAKS AT ASSEMBLY The day after returning from Christmas holidays, we were in for an interesting and inspiring surprise when Dr. Albert Edwards spoke at assembly. Dr. Edward’s Scotch brogue captivated the audience as he delivered a message for the New Year. His theme was centered a- round facing difficulties, disappoint ments, and heartaches which are a part of each of our lives. He stress ed the importance of having the ability to “bounce back” from diffi cult times and, in the end, to bene fit from defeat. Among the famous individuals whom Dr. Edwards cited as having “bounced back” from defeat was Dr. Tom Dooley. Dr. Dooley had dedicated himself — his body and soul — to hel])ing others regardless of the i)ersonal consequences. ( Continued on Page 3) TRIANGLE BEAUX-ARTS .1 anuarv: 1-21 Exhibit: 24th Annual N.

In each of our lives during this new year of 1962, there should be a special ability — the ability to “bounce back.” Although Mrs. William C. Press- ley spoke on an entirely different subject, she too captured the assem bly audience when she talked about careers for women. Airs. Pressley stressed the fact that at the turn of the century, a woman had little choice of occujrations. Now, she has 21,000 job opportuni ties from which to chosse. Speaking as a friend who was ad vising us. Airs. Pressly said she would stress four points in helping us to choose a vocation. First, we should learn about ourselves — our likes, dislikes, and abilities; second, we should learn about the oppor tunities that appeal to us; third, we should find out any special .require ments for our chosen field and also, such factors as income, working conditions and training should be investigated; and fourth, we should comi)are the information which we uncover with our personal likes in order to find a jol) which is com patible with our ])ersonalities. 2-10 Drama: “The Waltz of the Toreadors.” Raleigh Little Theatre. 8 p.m. 5 Films: “Le Chien Andalou.” “The Proud and the Beauti ful.” Sponsored by U.N.C. — Chapel Hill Film Society. 6 Lecture: Ralph E.

Under the direction of Eugene Ormondy, this orchestra has been widely acclaimed by critics as being one of the most out standing of its time. Four pieces made up Monday night’s concert. These were as fol lows: “Suite No. 3, in D IMajor,” by Johann Sabastian Bach; “Sym phony No. 4 in E IMinor, Opus 98,” Aletamorphorsis of Themes of Carl Alaria von AVeber,” by Hindemeth; “Polka and Fugue from ‘Schawan- da’,” by Jaromir Weinberger. All of Bach’s compositions make up four suites for orchestra use. Each particular suite (groups of short pieces) favors certain musical forms. “Suite No. 3 in D Alajor,” is considered to be the most im pressive; consequently, the Phil adelphia Orchestra chose this se lection from Bach. AVhen Brahms was fifty-two, his last symphony — “Symphony No. 4 in E Minor, Opus 98” — was per formed at Meiningen under the con duction of Billow. Brahms was most disappointed with his work as were his friends. Critics were severe in their criticisms. But today this work stands as Brahms’ ‘‘most per fectly wrought symphony.” It con sists of three movements, each with a certain individuality. Paul Hindemeth, already a noted German composer when the Hitler regime came into power, sought es cape by fleeing to Turkey. Later he came to the L'nited States as a pro fessor of composition at A'ale Uni versity. “Symphonie Metamorpho sis of Themes of Carl Maria von Weber” was first played at a con cert given by the New A"ork Phil harmonic Symphony on Januai’y 20, 1944. “Schwanda the Bagpipe Player” is a typical European folk song. It was first given in America at the 1930-31 season of the Metropolitan Opera. “Polka and Fugue from Schwan da” is music of gaiety and “bright orchestral color.” The Philadelphia Orchestra has recorded this music on Columbia records. These o])eras can be heard over AVPTF radio on Saturdays at 2:00 p.m. (Schedule is subject to change.) La Fanciulla Del West - Siegfried (Starts THE BELLES OF ST.
