;ranted Leave
ig In Fall Term
By MARLENE RAST
Prof. Merrill G. Christophersen,
English professor, director of
numerous university plays, and de
bate team coach, has been granted
a leave of absence next fall in order
that he may attend the University
of Florida, Gainesville, Fla.
Christophersen came to the uni
versity in 1939 by accident. He
married a girl from Louisville, Ky.,
who didn't like the north; so they
came south. The couple passed
through Columbia on the way to
North Carolina, where Christopher
sen had been offered a job. In Co
lumbia Dr. Babcock, of the Eng
lish department, persuaded him to
come to the university.
Prof. Christophersen was born
in Rockford, Ill., received his A.B.
from Beloit College, Wisconsin,
and his M.A. from Northwestern.
Following this he did two years'
graduate study at Northwestern.
Extra activities of Prof. Chris
tophersen include the University
Debaters and the University Play
ers. The debating teams, which he
began in 1946, won the national
title that year and have since been
among the top ten every year.
Again in 1949 they took the na
tional, were third in 1950, and
second in 1951.
"Captain Applejack" was the
first production. of the Players
when Christophersen arrived. Dick
Anderson played the leading role.
