POLAND PROGRAM
“Poland: The Will to Be” is the
fifth program in the highly ac
claimed series, James
Michener’s World. The series
explores the world we live in
through the very special eyes of
the noted American writer and
traveler. The program airs
Sunday, November 26 at 8 p.m.
on UNC-TV.
The Arts Council is going to
slow down a bit this week and
next from its one-event per week
pace, but it’s not for want of
ideas. Rather it’s because the
SAC is gearing up t6 sponsor
and co-sponsor three weeks of
fine pre-Christmas events for
people of every age in the
community. A few highlights for
your calendar:
Dance Theater
“A Christmas Party! A gala
event given by Dr. and Mrs.
Silverhaus for their children
Clara and Fritz. The stage is set
and we are in the living room as
all of the family and friends
arrive, dressed in their holdiay
finery. One very special guest,
an old family friend, arrives ana
receives an excited welcome
from everyone: Dr.
Drosselmeyer-a mysterious
man and a marvelous inventor of
moving toys. The gifts he has
brought are in an enormous
white box: a wondrous toy
soldier and mechanical dolls. Dr.
Drosselmeyer winds the dolls up
and they dance for the delighted
guests.”
So goes the enchanting
scenario which should be
familiar at once-and on
December 12 the dancers will be
members of the North Carolina
Dance Theatre, the guests you,
your children, grandchildren,
and friends.
“The Nutcracker” magic has
become a happily anticipated
Christmas entertainment, so
make plans soon to reserve your
tickets.
Tickets are now on sale at the
SAC office (944-1648). A special
ticket event for SAC members,
admission will be $3 for adults
and $2 for all children. Admission
for non-members will be $5. The
performance will be^at 8 p.m. at
the Pinehurst Middle School.

The
Sandhills
Observatory
Solar Eclipse In Pinehurst
The chances of a particular
locality experiencing a total
solar eclipse more often than
once in 300 years is pretty slim.
Assuming that this figure of 300
years is approximately correct
then the Sandhills will have to
wait until the year 2200 before
this spectacular event can be
seen again directly overhead
because it was on ktey 29, 1900
when the path of totality of the
eclipse of that year passed over
Pinehurst.
At the Givens Memorial
Library in Pinehurst in the
Archives room there is assem
bled a fascinating array of
exhibits depicting the history of
Pinehurst. Mrs. Duncan
McIntosh who has worked hard
to assemble and display the
exhibits can show you clippings
from the newspaper of that era
which describe the arrival of a
team of scientists from the Naval
Observatory in Washington for
the purpose of determining to a
high degree of accuracy the
latitude and longitude of the
{ffecise place where they were
late to set up their instruments
for the study of the eclipse.
About two weeks before the
May 29th date for the big event
the team of scientists from the
Observatory arrived and with
the help of some local labor
Santa Calls
The Moore County Recreation
Department has been receiving
post cards all week but there are
still many Moore County
children who have not mailed in
their telephone numbers for a
personal call from Santa Claus.,
Between 6 o’clock and 8:30
p.m. Dec. 19, 20, 21 Santa will
telephone all children who send
in a post card with their name
and telephone number.
Mail all cards to Moore County
Recreation Department, Box 905,
Carthage, 28327.
Besides a call from Santa, each
child who sends in a card is
eligible for a prize which will be
awarded to the child whose card
is drawn from a box.
December 18 will be the final
day to accept cards for Santa.
began to set up and calibrate
their elaborate array of
telescopes, spectroscopes and
other instruments with which to
study and analyze phenomena
taking place during totality.
Photographs are on display at
the library showing the men at
work as well as the finished
observing station. There also is a
photograph of the eclipsed sun.
Also on display is an article in the
Scientific American describing
the preliminary results of the
studies of the observing team.
Scientists from all parts of the
world journeyed to North and
South Carolina to observe and
study this particular event. The
nearest group to Pinehurst was
at Wadesboro where a delegation
from Clalifornia set up shop.
The article mentioned above
from the Scientific American
contained one statement of
particular interest. It reads
“Pinehurst lived up to its
reputation for clear skies.”
Seventy eight years later we
still have them.

Five Easy Pieces
December’s SAC film has been
changed to “Five Easy Pieces”
starring Jack Nicholson and
Karen Black.
Winner of many awards in
cluding Best Picture, Best
Director, and Best Supporting
Actress from the New York Film
Critics, Jack Nicholson in this
film takes the viewer through the
loves and hates, triumphs and
troubles of an everyday hard
working roughneck. He plays a
man fleeing from his heritage
and family, his personal failures,
and ultimately, himself.
A show of selected work from
the permanent collection of the
North Carolina National Bank
will open in The Gallery that
night as well. Watch “Soun
dings” next week for further
details about this show.
