We understand the Rutherford County Arts Council will soon announce its intention to build a replica of the famous Globe Theater in the Alexander Mills community, just off Hwy. 74 across the line from Polk County. The Globe, an oak-timbered polygonal structure was built in 1599 and rebuilt in 1613 in Southwark, England, across the River Thames from London. Besides being the outlet for Shakespeare's works, the greatest burst of theatrical genius in history, the Globe also represented the pinnacle of English timber framing. The Rutherford council is com mitted to building an authentic oak timber frame structure. The oak timbers to be found arc massive, starting with 12x12s at the sills. This project represents another asset to the region, and located on Hwy., 74 just across the border from Polk, is sure to bring Polk County many visi tors.

The well-defined expertise of the acting, the directing, the set designing, the fitness of every actor and actress for every part they played was expressed in such a graphic way. It was almost like attending the per formance. Your reporter turned his/her review into an artistic eloquence that stands on its own.

The Landrum Town Council continued, by a 3-2 vote, an ordinance to create single- member districts before electing two additional councilmen. Introduced by Mayor Robert Cogdell, the continuation was approved by Cogdell, Hollis Constance and Ray Mayfield. Doug Brannon and Fred Wil liams opposed the continuation of the single-member district ordinance to which they have objected all along. Earlier the council turned down, again in a 3-2 vote, a motion by Brannon to accept an ordinance to elect two new councilmen at-large. Such an election was called for on the original referendum petition. Brannon said he would have the voters on the same ballot choose whether to change the town's voting method from at- large to single-member district elections. Williams seconded Brannon's motion. Cogdell, Constance and Mayfield, however, voted it down. Ilie three councilmen, who are presently named in a civil suit charging them with holding up an election, are not alone in their position.
