beginning at 1:15 p.m.
The “Lion’s Little 500,” a bi
cycle race, will start the after

pus organizations have been in
vited to participate. The winner
Dr. Rodney Green
Historian
To Speak
A British authority on Ameri
can history, Dr. Rodney Green of
the University of Manchester, will
give two lectures here Tuesday
(Apr. 12), sponsored by the Visit
ing Scholars Program of the
Piedmont University Center of
North Carolina.
Particularly well-informed on
the historical relationships be
tween Ireland, Scotland and the
United States, Dr. Green will give
an illustrated lecture at 2 p.m. in
the Library Auditorium and will
speak again at 7:30 p.m. in Spain-
hour Hall.
The first lecture will be en
titled, “Looking at the Industrial
Revolution.” The second will be
on “Ireland and America.” Both
will be open to the entire student
body and faculty.
The Piedmont University Cen
ter is a league of 17 private col
leges in North Carolina cooperat
ing in various ways for mutual
benefits. The Visiting Scholars
Program brings distinguished au
thorities in various fields to the
campuses of three or four of the
member colleges during a three-
day tour.
Dr. Green is a replacement in
the program for Dr. Sylvester
Broderick of Sierre Leone, Africa.
The latter missed an appearance
here when he changed his sched
ule so that his visit to colleges of
the Piedmont University Center
came during Mars Hill’s spring
holidays.
Previously in this school year
Mars Hill has enjoyed the lecture
visits of three distinguished par-
t'cipants in the program. His
torian Dr. George Mowry and Dr.
Broadus Mitchell, an authority in
economics, visited the campus in
November; Dr. Marston Bates, a
zoologist, was here in March.
Dr. Green is the final entry for
Mars Hill’s schedule in the pro
gram for the 1965-66 session. Con
tinuation of the program for
1966-67 is anticipated for the fall
term.
