Extra Time Is A Rare Itsm For
College President's Wife
fiy CATHERINE GAINES
One day a young man who was
clutching- a furry object appeared at
the door and stammered:
"Lady, do you want a cat? Y'see
I'm a student and I found it in my
room and I know THEY won't let
me keep it . . ."
"Lady" smled, took the little an
imal in, and sat down for a quiet
chuckle. She is the wife of that
man with a right to frown over, kit
tens in dormitories, Dr. Hoyt Black
well, president of Mars Hill College.
Mrs. BLackwell, by virtue of her
own three children, has a deep un
derstanding of young people. A
house overlooking a campus filled
wiah more than a thousand students
is her idea of the perfect place to be.
Mrs. Blackwell'e home, the college
and Mars Hill Baptist Church are
her main interests. She is a mem-1
foer of the Woman's Missionary
Union of the church and teaches a
Sunday School class for young wom
jn. She has been an active member of
,he Mars Hill Parent-Teachers Asso
ciation for many years. Her sons,
Albert, 17, and Eric, 10, are now
attending schools in Mars Hill. Han
nah Brown is a Junior at Wake For
est College.
Extra time is an item Mrs. Black
well has very little of, since as the
wife of a college president, she must
be ready for impromptu entertain
.ng. Her latch string is always out
for visiting dignitaries, old friends,
and streams of former students.
"Of course, hobbies," she laughs,
'involve having time." But she does
claim one, reading, a carryover from
days when she majored in English
literature. Mrs. Blackwell is a grad
uate of Carson-Newman College,
where her father, the late Albert R-
CleVeland, Ohio Shortly after a
passenger handed him five pennies
i'or a tip, IjOU Takacs, a taxi driver
was, held up by a gunman and rob
bed of $10. Police arrested a sus-
nect. who protested his innocence.
Takacs remembered that one ()f the
pennies had been blackened und had
a dent In it. Sure enough, that pen
ny was in the suspect's pocket.
I Brown, was a trustee.
A second hobby, and certainly ap
preciation, goes; to music. The Black
well home is always filled with the
musical strains since all three chil
dren have studied the piano for
many years.
Albert carries his love for music
a step- farther with hours of practice
on a trumpet. His interest in horns,
Mrs. Black well says, goes back to a
day when at seven he emptied his
piggy-bank, took his "life savings,"
and bought a bugle.
The college, itself, is a source of
pride and inspiration for Mrs.
Blackwell who has seen it grow dur
ing the last 26 years, under her
husband's presidency. Their house
is situated on a hill above the cam
pus, a prime vantage point for
watching the placing of new bricks
in new buildings.
Tradition is also preserved at the
college and one of the president's
wife's favorite student stories re
volves around 4 marker on the main
street.

reads, "N. W. Corner, First Build
