Mars Hill College Boosts
New $500,000 Fox Hall
By BRUCE GOULAY
Citizen Staff Writer
Traditional on the outside, mod
em on the inside, Mars Hill Coll
ege's new $600,000 girls residence
hall was unveiled to alumni and
officially christened Fox Dormi
tory Saturday at the college's
Founders Day prgoram.
The building, which has enabled
the institution's enrollment to
jump 10 per cent in the last year
to an all-time high of 1,288 stu
dents, was completed a month
ago and is now boosing 116 sen
ior and junior co-eds.
Saturday's Founders Day ob
servance included a number of
other events including:
Convocation at 10 a. m., with
an address by Dr. D. Hides Ram
sey of Asheville, educator, civic
leader, lecturer and former news
editor.
The homecoming football
game with the Mars Hill grid
squad opposing Gordon Military
College.
A concert at 8 p. m., featuring
Miss Nell Rankin, mezzo-soprano
with the Metropolitan Opera in
New York City.
Fox Dormitory, the college's
first new building since the Robert
Lee Moore Auditorium was com
pleted two years ago, is a hand
some four-story brick building
containing a number of student
morale-boosting features.
Among them are dating parlors,
"pajama rooms" on the upper
three levels which include hair
dryers and card tables, a snack
bar, laundry facilities, linen clos
ets, student and faculty kitchens
complete with dishwashers, refrig
erators, ranges and cooking uten
sils and a student lounge stocked
with TV and hi-fi.
Two girls share each room and
every two rooms are joined by s
semi-private bath. The building's
attic contains individual storage
rooms where the girls can leave
their suitcases and trunks, aa well
aa formal gowns, behind locked
doors. A J Went to the dorm is
the girl's recreation area.
The new dormitory, in addition, I
houses two teachers, the dean of
women and Miss Lina Gough,
house mother. Included also is a
guest room.
The building has been named in
honor of Mr. and Mrs. Carl G. Fox
of Hickory who donated a substan
tial sum of money for its con
struction. Fox, owner of C. G. Fox
Lumber Co., in Hickory, is a trus
tee of the college. Three of the
Fox's children attended Mars Hill
and they presently have three
grandchildren at the school.
Ground was broken for the
structure IS months ago. A plas
tic covering was placed around the
building after the steel framework
had bean erected to enable con
tractors to do interior work dur
ing the winter months.
It waa designed by (he Ashe
ville architectural firm of Six As
sociates, and Z. B. Robinson Con
struction Co. of Asheville was the
general contractor. The $500,000
price tag included $465,000 for
construction, with the remainder
embracing furnishings and land-

scaping.
Though both seniors and jun
iors are residing at the dorm this
year, it will eventually be for sen
iors only. It is the first dormitory
built at Mars Hill since 1955.
Also in the spotlight Saturday
was the college's new home man
agement house where eight senior
home economics co-eds reside and
receive on-the-spot home-making
training.
The house, which formerly hous
ed 16 male students, wae recently
converted to its present use at a
cost of some $11,000. It is stocked
with a complete kitchen unit where
the girls prepare and serve their
own . meals on a limited budget as
part of their curriculum.
All furnishings such aa draper
ies and bed spreads were designed
and made by home economics stu
dents. In charge of the house are
Mr. and Mrs. Haskell Ezell. Ezell
is line coach of the football team
and a physical education instruc
tor.
NEWS FROM THE MADISON COUNTY
ASCS Of fit
RALPH RAMSEY, Office Manager
1963 Special ACP
Due to the lack of participation
In some areaa, it waa again deter
mined that there would be a pe
rial program for increasing par
ticipation In the 1963 ACP. It waa
also determined that the commu
nity committeemen would be used
in contacting these farmers.
Anna Mae Tipton, Counter and
Special AOP Clerk at the county
ASCS office, points out that under
the Special ACP only NP farms
are considered. A NP farm la one
which completes one or more prac
tices in 1968 but did not complete
practice in 1969, 1960, 1961 or
1962. A total of 117 non-partici
pating farms have been enrolled
in the 963 Special ACP and 39
farms have completed the prac
tices. Thirty-four community com
mitteemen have enrolled one or
more new farms. These commit
teemen assumed the responsibili
ty on their own time and with
out pay to encourage farm op
erators who have not done any
significant conservation work dur
ing the recent 4-5 year period to
carry out a needed conservation
practice.
It is well known that in neurly
every community that there are
farmers who have lagged in the
conservation of their natural re
sources and yet many of these
farmers could add to their income
through better use and manage
ment of their soil, water and
woodland. The longer a farmer
operates his farm without regard
to conservation, the harder It us
nelly is to get htm Interested In
the program.
In conclusion, Mrs. Tipton urge
non-participating farmers with an
ACP practice need to contact the
ASCS office in Marshall for the
details of the program and the
filing of their request for coet-
shsring.

the program is exsmlned careful

proving it.
It isn't practical to include ev
ery good conservation practice in

effort is made to see that avail
able ACP help is directed so that
the individual farmer will have
assistance with the conservation
problems on his farm for which
