“We had a few misgivings
about how a major professional
Shakespearean touring company
would be received,” says Miss
Sulka, “but response exceeded
our wildest expectations. Especi
ally rewarding is the excitement
displayed by audiences who have
never seen live performances of
Shakespeare by professional ac
tors.”
Macbeth is one of the most
popular plays Shakespeare wrote.
Translations flourish and wide
spread use of it has been made
in teaching so that it has become
the most widely-read of all the
famous bard’s tragedies.
Like its classic predecessor,
Hamlet, the play has been under
almost constant scrutiny by
critics, scholars and academicians.
Some see in the play a concentra
tion on the theme of ambition,
others upon the manifestations of
fear and still others find it a
morality tale of good and evil.
All probably have some validity.
Economist
To Speak
A nationally distinguished
scholar in economics will deliver
two lectures here Tuesday, Nov.
16.
Dr. Broadus Mitchell of the
faculty of New College of Hof-
stra University in Hempstead,
N. Y., who is also professor of
economics at Rutgers University,
will come under sponsorship of
the Visiting Scholars Program of
the Piedmont University Center.
He will lecture at 11 a.m. in
the Library Auditorium on the
subject, “What Is Wealth?” and
at 2 p.m. in the same place on
“The Changing Constitution of
the United States.” Discussion
periods will follow each lecture.
Dean R. M. Lee will moderate
the first session and Charlie Nar-
ron of the business administra
tion faculty, the second.
“All students in business and
the social sciences are especially
urged to attend; and, of coure,
all other interested students and
faculty members are invited,”
said Miss Mildred Bingham, head
of the Department of Business
Administration, who has coordi
nated the lecture program.
A teacher since 1917, Dr.
Mitchell is also a noted writer.
His latest works include author
ship and co-authorship in two
volumes on “Alexander Hamil
ton” in 1967 and 1962 and “A
Biography of the Constitution of
the U. S.” in 1964.
He is the second nationally
famous scholar to lecture on the
campus this month under spon
sorship of the Piedmont Univer
sity Center. The first was his
torian Dr. George Mowry, who
spoke here Nov. 4.
Chapel Schedule
A varied schedule of chapel
programs has been planned for
the next two weeks by College
Chaplain Robert Melvin.
The Rev. Durward Hofler,
pastor of the local Methodist
church, will be the speaker Tues
day morning (Nov. 9). He will
be followed on Thursday by Dean
R. M. Lee.
On Tuesday, Nov. 16, Nathan
Porter, personnel secretary for
the Baptist Home Mission Board
in Atlanta, will speak; and on
the following Thursday, Nov. 18,
senior music student Norman Sel
by will lead in another student-
produced musical program.
All 20 of Mars Hill’s nominees
for inclusion in the 1966 edition
of the national publication “Who’s
Who Among Students in Ameri
can Colleges and Universities”
have been accepted. Registrar

dall in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Drama Slates
Rerun Tonight
A second performance of “My
Three Angels,” the fall drama
production, will be given in
Moore Auditorium at 8 tonight
by the Dramateers.
The hilarious three-act play
was applauded at its first run
last night.
Director James Thomas antici
pates tonight’s performance to be
even better due to the elimina
tion of “rough spots” in the
opening night production.
Three freshmen—Brick Tilley,
Paul Wright and Jack Sanders—
cavort in the title roles. A sup
porting cast includes David Jones,
Diane Jaynes, Mike Yelton, Nan
cy Wyatt, Mary Owens, Wayne
Slagle and Milton Joyner.
HMB Secretary
Has Information
Authentic information on two
programs sponsored by the Home
Mission Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention will be given
to interested students here on
Tuesday, Nov. 16, by Nathan
Porter, personnel secretary of the
board.
The programs are summer mis
sions work and “U.S.2” a two-
year program for college gradu
ates similar to the Peace Corps
and the Journeyman Program of
the convention’s Foreign Mission
Board. '
As director of personnel for
the Home Mission Board in At
lanta, Mr. Porter will be inter
ested in talking to prospective
1966 graduates about the “U.S.2”
program and to under classmen
as well about the summer mis
sions program. He will have ac
curate, up-to-date Information,
application blanks, etc., for any
one looking ahead to next sum
mer or thereafter.
He will also speak at 7 p.m. in
the choir room of the Pine Arts
Building to all interested stu
dents.
The group will be recognized
at commencement next spring,
and each will be presented a
handsome engraved certificate
suitable for framing.
A copy of the publication will
be catalogued into the library,
and additional copies will be
available for interested pur
chasers.
The nominees were selected re
cently by an anonymous faculty
committee appointed by Mr.
Chapman as chairman of the
academic standing committee.
They were chosen for their lead
ership ability, scholastic stand
ing and promise of becoming use
ful citizens after graduation.
Acceptance of the full slate of
nominees reflects credit upon the
entire college. This was the first
opportunity that Mars Hill has
had to submit names for possible
Inclusion. The publication is open
only to juniors, seniors or gradu
ate students at recognized senior
colleges.
The 1966 Laurel will accord
the entire group recognition in
a special section, according to
Editor Tracy Heath. Individual
photographs of each person
named in the Who’s Who publi
cation will be made soon and
pertinent biographical informa
tion will be gathered, he said.
Home Ec Chapter

American Home Economics As

night (Nov. 11) to hear Miss

A delegation from the campus,
