We would also like to commend the faculty and the administra tion for their support and active interest,” they said. The leaders said they felt the “unity and responsible behavior of the students” were important factors in bringing about the fi nal decision in this case. “Only through the unity as exemplified in this case can stu dent government progress effec tively,” they concluded. Cadenza Copy Goes to Press Copy and layout work were completed this week for the win ter edition of the 1968 Cadenza, according to Mike Bice, editor. Delivery of the magazine is ex pected in early December by Grove Printing Company. This year’s expanded issue -will include a variety of prose, poet ry, and art work. A second edi tion of the publication is planned for late spring. Two issues were possible this year -with the help of a $750 grant awarded by the N. C. Arts Council to promote creativity on campus. Cadenza is primarily a student literary magazine and is under the sponsorship of the English anl Art departments. Sale of Cadenza •will be set up for after Thanksgiving holidays and will cost $1. Magazines will be sold in the cafeteria. Articles for the next issue of the Cadenza will be accepted un til April 1, 1969. Positive steps for dealing -with student suggestions and criticisms related to the cafeteria are being taken by the new business mana ger of the college, Louis Moel- chert, Jr., and the SGA Commit tee on Food Service, headed by Bill Pons. An open meeting at which sug gestions can be made and criti cisms can be voiced will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, in Room 32 of the Administration Building, Pons announced earlier this week. The committee and Moelchert agreed to secure a qualified but impartial third party to hear the suggestions and criticisms and evaluate them. Accordingly, Miss Winona Bierbaum of the Home Economics Department has agreed to serve in such a capacity. According to Moelchert and Pons, Miss Bierbaum will be pres ent for the open meeting. She ■will receive the suggestions and criticisms, which may be present ed by members of the SGA com mittee and by interested students in attendance. She will review the matters and list her opinions as to the merits or demerits of the suggestions concerning the cafeteria. When she has concluded the entire project, her report will be printed and distributed on campus. The plan calls for her to list the sug gestion or criticism and, beside it, to list her evaluation. Moelchert and his staff -will then list the specific action which -will be taken on each item. In addition to Pons, other mem bers of the committee are Betty Smith, Dianne Costner and Allen Lane. “The SGA Committee on Food Service was established at the beginning of this term,” Moel chert explained, “because we realized there was need for bet ter communications with the stu dents. It was anticipated that such a committee could help us obtain an accurate reading of student attitudes towards this im portant aspect of campus life. I am appreciative of the work of the committee thus far and of the attitude of both students and faculty. I believe this procedure involving an impartial evaluation by a third party will prove bene ficial.” experience in all phases of pag eant work, from staging and production, to judging and chap eroning contestants to state pag eants.

Under Mr. Rich’s direction the choir gave many listeners an idea of the caliber of work demanded by the college’s music faculty as its members performed with the poise and style of a professional group. The morning concert was at Trinity Episcopal Church in Ashe ville, and there was a capacity congregation. Divided into three ensembles, they sang “Alleluia, Sing a New Song” by Gallus. Di vided into two groups, they did “Psalm 100” by Schutz. Other sacred numbers were per formed with excellent instru mental work on the organ by Kathy Ann Smith and William Christmas. Fine solo work was displayed by Jan Boydston in “The Twenty-Third Psalm” by Williams. The evening concert was at the Pendleton Street Baptist Church in Greenville, S. C. It was con sidered the better of the day’s performances by several listeners and by choir members. Selections from the morning concert were presented as the basis for the evening program with other num bers added from the choir’s ex tensive repertoire.
