A person in office if found guilty of a crime of irregularities (inside of ®*igress) should be permanently ostracized.

N.C. College Band and Choir The Mars Hill College Choir and Concert Band are presently (24 Mar.) touring North and South Carolina and Kentucky dur ing a week of concerts presented in various high schools, colleges, and churches throughout the states. The choir, directed by Robert C. Rich, left Mars Hill 18 Mar. on their tour of North and South Carolina. The 46-member choir will present concerts at Friendly Roads Baptist Church, Greens boro ; Lindley Park Baptist Church, Greensboro; First Baptist Church, Burlington; Hildebran High School, Hildebran; First Baptist Church, Valdese; Fort Mill High School, Fort Mill, S. C.; First Baptist Church, Rock Hill, S. C.; Ashley River Baptist SGA Proposal Vetoed The Administrative Council, a committee chosen from the ad ministrative staff of the college, met 28 Feb. to discuss curriculum and student affairs policies. The Council is responsible for coordi nation of student activities and policy making. The Council heard a request from the SGA that the newly adopted school calendar be al tered, as only one day is allowed for Thanksgiving next year. The group denied the request, how ever, stating: “The objective in moving from the old calendar is to get away from a vacation per iod shortly before the time for final exams. If there were to be an extended vacation before the Thanksgiving holidays, the same situation which existed before would still exist with the pro posed system.’’ Also decided was that a $4-fee will be charged along with the regular tuition rates next year. The funds will go to SGA for increased entertainment. It was approved that cuts be fore the spring break will count as single cuts, while those the day following the vacation’s end will count as double cuts. This committee is responsible for any changes in student regu lations and for collecting college fees. In addition, it serves as a court of student appeals. If a student is dissatisfied with a de cision handed him by the SGA court system, he may appeal to the Administrative Council for final decision in the matter. A.T. Exhibit Reviewed In the Fine Arts gallery, until 31 Mar., is an exhibition of prints and drawings by A. T. Sar- vis. Associate Professor of Art at Western Carolina College in Cul- lowhee. Sarvis received much of his training on the west coast, having studied at the University of California, Berkeley, California College of Arts and Crafts, among other schools, and having received a Fellowship-in-Residence at the Huntington Hartford Foundation. A frequent exhibitor, Sarvis has recently won an award at the Pennsylvania Academy Annual Exhibition. Most of the works on exhibit in the Fine Arts building are wood- cuts, a technique involving the printing on the raised surface of the wood, and resulting in strong, expressive, and somewhat sim plified designs. One of the most powerful of the prints is the color woodcut. Blind Boy II, in which the pale yellow and gold head and hand are set against a startling black background. The slanted, tightly-pressed eyelids suggest blindness without com ment, the effect being one of pathos rather than sentimentality. Effective and extremely well 24 March 1967 Big Swing Church, Charleston, S. C.; Jack- son Creek Baptist Church, Dents- ville, S. C.; and Pendleton Street Baptist Church, Greenville, S. C. The Choir will return to campus 25 Mar. The Choir’s progpram contains various works by Thompson, Prae- torius, Mozart, Gretchaninoff, and others; several Negro spirit uals are also included. One selec tion on the program, “Brazilian Psalm’’ by Berger, is accompanied by Jay Flippin on the bongo drums. An Easter cantata, “Christ Lay by Death Enshroud ed,’’ will also be presented since the tour is during Holy Week. The band’s tour began 20 Mar. and ends 24 Mar. The 54-member group visited Enka High School, Enka; Bell County High School, Pineville, Kentucky; Garrard County High School, Lancaster, Kentucky; Williamsburg High School, Williamsburg, Kentucky; Pikeville College, Pikeville, Ken tucky; and Cumberland College, Williamsburg, Kentucky. The pro gram is made of selections by Wagner, Tschaikovsky-Lake, Sou sa, and others. Soloists for the 1967 tour are Randall Henry, trombone, and Laura Lamberth, clarinet. The band is directed by Wayne Pressley. —Robert Haycraft done is the color woodcut “Exit,” in which a strong vertical area— containing part of the word exit, blocked out poster-fashion—cuts across a face beautifully modeled in silvery grey and sienna. The variety of work on ex hibit, from the carefully textured “Self-Portrait” to the ingeniously drawn “Landscape,” done almost entirely in conte crayon, is in dicative of the range of this very fine graphic artist, and the works themselves reveal a consummate craftsman who is able to delineate poignantly and well the oft-time troubled image of man.
