There has been no censoring and this has put more resp)onsibility on us to turn out a finished product because we want to see the policy continue. The creative student has had until now, little motivation to create on his own time. Cadenza will, we hope, be come his motivation.” RECITAL SLATED An internationally-renowned pianist and piano teacher, Bela Nagy, will give a recital in Moore Auditorium at 8 p.m. Monday (Apr. 25). The performance, to be spon sored by the Department of Mus ic, is a bonus in the campus pro gram of cultural events. It will be open to the general public as well as to students and faculty members. Three-time winner of the Liszt Award, holder of an earned doc torate in law, the guest artist is professor of music at Boston Uni versity’s School of Fine and Ap plied Arts. Among the selections Dr. Nagy will play are the Bach-Goldberg Variations, the Bartok Sonata and Beethoven’s Sonata, Op. 111. Faculty, Staff Fete Blackwells A dinner honoring Dr. and Mrs. Hoyt Blackwell will be given by the members of the faculty and general staff at 7 p.m. Tuesday (Apr. 26) in the main area of Coyte Bridges Dining Hall. The occasion will pay tribute to Dr. Blackwell, who has served the college 38 years and who will retire June 30. It will be attend ed by retired former members of the faculty and staff as well as a large number of special guests from throughout the state and more than a hundred current staff and faculty members and their husbands and wives. Douglas Therrell of the music faculty is chairman of a commit tee to prepare a program for the evening. He has indicated it will sketch Dr. Blackwell’s life and his contributions through the col lege. Mrs. Mary Howell of the Home Economics Department is in charge of the menu; and Miss Mil dred Thomas, also of the Music Department, is chairman for dec orations. Judi Ellis and Clarence Young examine a ne'w camera which will be used in making some of Ihe pictures for the 1967 Laurel. Mars Hillians Appointed For Journeyman Program Two of Mars Hill’s graduating seniors, James Colvin and James Alexander, have been selected for appointment as missionary jour neymen by the Foreign Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. They and a 1961 Mars Hill graduate. Miss Faye Stone of Rustburg, V a., were among 49 young men and women ap proved by the FMB on Apr. COLVIN Colvin, a religion major from Reidsville, expects to do youth work in Nairobi, Kenya. Alexan der, a religion major from Ashe ville, will do student work in Tokyo. Miss Stone is going to Newton Memorial School in Os- hogbo, Nigeria. All three appointments, which are contingent upon the comple tion of training, are for two years. The Missionary Journeymen Program is designated for young er men and women who have dedicated themselves to Christian service and want to serve over seas two years. Under the direction and super vision of career missionaries, they share their Christian Faith and perform specific jobs, thus as sisting and freeing the career missionaries for other responsi bilities. The program, somewhat akin in philosophy and history to the government’s Peace Corps, was just instituted last year with the appointment of 46 persons. An eight- week training period for the new appointees will begin June 18 on the cam pus of Virginia Intermont Col lege at Bristol. They hope to be in their areas of service by early fall. Colvin says he expects to re turn from the journeyman as signment and continue his educa tion in preparation for becoming a pastor in the United States. ALEXANDER N, C. Symphony Plays Here Tonight The North Carolina Symphony, under the direction of Dr. Benja min Swalin, will present its an nual concert at 8:30 p.m. today in Moore Auditorium. Guest soloist for the evening will be Mrs. Jayne Winfield Reich, pianist, who first per formed with the famed orchestra when she was 10. A native of Washington, N. C., Mrs. Reich — then Jayne Win field — won the Junior Auditions in 1946 and subsequently played with the orchestra in its chil dren’s concerts for nine seasons. A homemaker and mother of three sons, Mrs. Reich still studies piano, currently with Daniel Eri- court, artist in residence at UNC in Greensboro. Her performance with the Sym phony tonight will be “Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in C Minor, No. II, Op. 18” by Rach maninov. Dr. Swalin and the state-spon sored symphony orchestra are currently making the 21st annual state-wide tour. Editors-in-chief for the 1967 Laurel and for the Hilltop of the 1966-67 school year were named this week by the advisor to both publications, Walter Smith. Rising senior Judi Ellis of Lincolnton will direct the work of the 1967 yearbook; and Clarence Young, rising junior from Weaver- ville, will edit the 15 issues of this bi-weekly student newspaper during the coming year. The appointments were an nounced at this time, Smith said, in order that the two new editors might begin work this semester in organizing their staffs and making plans for the coming year. The normal procedure in pre paring the yearbook is for a pre liminary staff to meet near the close of the spring semester, dis cuss their ideas for the next year’s edition and transmit their ideas to a professional layout artist. During the summer he drafts a preliminary layout, which he will submit to the staff at the opening of the fall term. Minor changes and corrections can be made at that time. The project demands a large staff, and the new editor will an nounce plans for an initial meet ing soon. It will be open to all rising seniors, juniors and soph omores. Miss Ellis, who is majoring in English and education and min- oring in German, aspires to a career in magazine journalism. She worked on the staff of the student yearbook in her high school and is presently associate editor of the 1966 Laurel. She has had several years of art training and is especially in terested in design and layout. A year-round student at Mars Hill, she hopes to complete the usual four-year load in three. She will attend the 1966 summer school and is already making plans to devote some time this summer to work on the 1967 Laurel. The publication will be en graved by Roanoke Engraving Co. of Roanoke, Va., and printed by Commonwealth Press in Rad ford, Va. The cover will be pro duced and the binding done by Kingsport Press of Kingsport, Tenn. Young, currently advertising manager and also a reporter for the Hilltop, is a graduate of North Buncombe High School. He hopes to obtain additional train ing in journalism after he fin ishes Mars Hill and eventually go into some branch of the pro fession although he is not yet de cided on a specific area. Virtually all staff positions on the paper are open for 1966-67. Anyone interested in joining the staff should contact Young per sonally or leave name, address and area of interest in the Hill top office. The Hilltop is printed by Bilt- more Press of Asheville. The staffs of the two publica tions share office space in the Montague Building.
