inherited. Also emphasized was

bers who are Mar.y Holden Har
rell, Chairman; Molly Richard

Travels To Greensboro
To See Play
Friday afternoon, October 20,
at 4:00 p.m., fourteen girls met
Mr. Tate on the front campus and
prepared for their trip to UNC-G.
The group ate dinner at the
Towne House Restaurant in
Greensboro and then proceeded to
Aycock Auditorium where they
saw Shakespeare’s Comedy of Er
rors, presented by a professional
group, the National Repertory
Company.
The Company had been at UNC-
G for a week of plays and elasses.
The St. Mary’s girls thoroughly
enjoyed the play and felt that the
actor playing both Dromios gave
a superb performanee. After the
presentation they remained to
question the actors.
The travelers arrived back on
the SMJC campus about 1:30 a.m.
Transportation was provided by
Mr. Tate and day students Emily
Morgan and Derin Uyanik.

ferent phases of our lives.
In the Thursday Assembly St.
Mary’s was privileged to have ■
Mrs. James McKee, the mother of
two former St. Mary’s students,
and who was also a St. Mary’s
girl herself. Mrs. McKee spoke on
honor in dail.y living.
Throughout the week, posters
were seen around school with
various honor quotations on them.
The prayers in Chapel were de
voted to honor, and the Honor
Code blotters were given out
after the service.
Although an Honor Week is ob
served at St. Mary’s, one should
remember that honor is not desig
nated to one speeific week but
should be present at all times.
Faculty Members and
Students Present Comic
Opera in Assembly
Four illustrious opera singers
of whom the Met knows nothing
sang a comic opera, “The Grass
hopper and the Turkey Gobbler,”
for St. Mary’s assembly program
on Thursday, November 9. The
cast consisted of two members of
the Junior Class and two distin
guished members of the faculty.
Anne Cooper, known in operatic
circles as Livania Cadman, and
Anne Sykes, famous as Rosanna
Scarlotti, ably interpreted the fe
male roles melodiously aeeom-
panied by Mr. Bulley as Giovanni
Kichner, and Mr. Roberts as Leon
ard Strebor.
The opera that they performed
was a delightfully eomic piece
that told the story of a gay and
gallant grasshopper who was
rudely eaten by a villainous tur
key gobbler while the inseet re
posed on a sweet potato vine. The
young grasshopper was mourned
by all his greed.v relatives in a
tone “suggesting divvy” and by
Miss Sykes, the lovely grasshop-
peress to whom he was betrothed.
Miss Sykes also rendered the eul
ogy delivered by the Reverend
Bumblebee.
Miss Cooper sang the part of
the maiden aunt with a distinct
nasal twang, and Mr. Bulley por
trayed the breathless herald who
announeed the death to a group
of eharacters “onl.v assembled on
the stage of the Italian opera for
choral purposes”.
The infamous Mr. Roberts was
well east as the villainous turkey;
he was also the narrator. The en
tire cast wept copiousl.v.
Miss Cate lent tuneful accom
paniment to the group while
Laura Walters masterfully turned
pages for her.
