The radio announcer went on to give the youngsters' ages as being between 6 and 13. "The temperature in Raleigh is now 16 degrees" and it is unlikely that the children will be able to live through the night. Vol unteers are needed. Those who would like to help in the search are asked to meet at Teel Con struction Co. located on high way 70 north of Clayton." . It was 11 p.m. and for the most part the young men on the fourth floor of Winston Dormitory, ordinarily imper vious to outside stimulation on a cold and windy Monday night, suddenly decided to heed the call. Put On Clothes In ten minutes, nine guys had put on 18 pairs of pants, a huge number of socks, somewhat fewer shirts, gloves, jackets and anything else that might keep the cold wind from freezing a young body. In the five minutes that fol lowed these same nine Carolina students crowded into an await ing Volkswagon and a Renault. An hour later they were standing in front of a tall man with a fire helmet, listening to instructions delivered in small clouds of white fog..- . I "God it's cold" said a stu dent from an- area school. "Yeah, but don't tell any body," said another student from still another university. "If these people knew, it might start a panic."

The men, about 100 in all, made a long line parallel to the road and with flashlights cut ting into the cold darkness be gan to move forward into the dense wood. This orderly wave of cold people only remained as such for a few hundred yards then broke into several smaller parties which thrashed their way through the heavy brush and briars. Two of the men from Win ston stayed alongside Johnson. Low Temperatures The temperature was below the human threshold, the briars seemed to have been sharpened for the occasion as they ripped trousers, shirts and skin; the creeks were like liquid ice and had to be crossed, and once in a while someone would exclaim as he dragged a foot in the jumping of one. "Does anybody have an extra sock?" was the question. "Yeah, you need one?" was the unexpected answer. "Well, that all depends on the amount of time it takes water to freeze at 15 degrees." The dry-footed one sat on the cold ground and began to pull off one of his boots. "Where ya from?" "Carolina. How 'bout your self?" "Me too."; A helicopter from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base hov-i ered , overhead with its huge; spotlight, lighting woods as an early morning sun. It was about three in the morning and the children had not been found. "I feel like Br'er Rabbit after the briar patch," said an ex hausted searcher as he and his group began to wend their way back to their cars and a little hot coffee. The two students from Win ston that were with the still hopeful Johnson separated from him and with the help of Orion's Belt also returned to the high way. After the nine Carolina students found each other, they started back to the campus with chattering teeth and a bluish hue. It was 5:15 a.m. At about 8:30 a.m. a news bulletin sounded over the radio explaining that the children had just been found alive by Kenneth Johnson and a small searching party.

Suggest Props The gray cube-shaped units will merely suggest props and scenery. One unit will be used for a bed in one act and a sofa in another. "Most of the scenery and prop effects," Dr. Mason said, "will be achieved by lighting Through different light concen trations and spotlights follow ing the principals, the scenery becomes superfluous."
