Page Four THE HILLTOP, MARS HILL COLLEGE, MARS HILL, N. C. OCTOBER 29, ir^ Dedication Of New Library Is Fulfillment Of Dreams and J. A. McLeod. The Build ing Committee is to be commend ed for their tireless efforts in se curing a library for Mars Hill. For several years they have studied the layout, shelving, and space that would be sufficient for the needs of a library for a college of our size. They visited libraries in North Carolina, South Caro lina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Vir ginia, and went over numerous plans before choosing the ones that became a reality for our school. Dr. Hoyt Blackwell is also to be commended for his fine leader ship in the project, and his efforts in securing the needed funds for the building. Mr. Douglas Ferguson, alum nus of Mars Hill and the owner of the Pigeon Forge Pottery in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, donated the pottery in the library as a gift. To him thanks is due for mak ing the building and furnishings more attractive with his hand made potter}^ A member of the Building Committee who deserves special recognition for her work is Miss Daisy Anderson. Miss Anderson is a native of Mars Hill and came to take up her duties as li brarian of the college in 1944. Be fore coming to Mars Hill, she was connected with Radford Teachers College, Radford, Va. For eleven years she worked tire lessly in the old library and in the planning of the new one. Here we want to give honor to whom honor is due—Miss Daisy Ander son. The new library with its visual aid room, its conference rooms, its endless rows of shelves, and its beautiful furnishings will alwa3^s remain a memorial to those that made it possible. Therefore, we, the students of Mars Hill Col lege, want to say “thank you very much” for making such a wonder ful library ours. in Alabama Quartet (Continued from page 1) t Brevard Festival Orchestra North Carolina. The program will include num bers from such well known com posers as Mozart, Bartok, Bee thoven, and Turiva. The group will also do numbers from some of the beter known contemporary composers. The Quartet is ranked among the foremost chamber music or ganizations of the country. It has achieved success by touring an area covering fifteen states, and has furthered that by a series of several nation-wide broadcasts. This program should prove to be one of the musical highlights of the year. Opportunities of this type are rare and should be taken full advantage of. Burns B.
