"I think 1'11 move to )urham and
Jin the Itapti.t church," "Do yout
think lie is married ?" I was in
lired." "Not only does he have a
grip oin his audience, but did you
shake his hand ?" These were some
of the comments ectorided after the
daily noon chapel meetings during
the ast Religious Liphasis Week.
Sally Nash and Ann F-'lorsheirmer
acted as "ro ving; reporters." A fter
each chapel program, they interviewed
stuents to find out the impression
that the talks were making on indi.
vidual members of the student body.
-'aeh sttudent was asked to tell his
'pinion of the talk lie had just heard.
These cotmmets were then prescnt'ed
at the break fast forum each morning.
They proved to be interesting and
stimulating to the week's speakers and
aided them in preparing sub,equtent
spect'its.
