Installation Of Lighting System Begun An adequate stage lighting sys tem - one of the University Players' chief needs for many years - will be theirs at last by the time the curtain goes up on their initial production of the year, according to Professor G en e Crotty, faculty advisor. The new lighting system, which includes a giant switch board with simplified controls, overhead spot lights and footlights, was puf chased during the summer with the cooperation of Dean Paterson, D)ean of Administration. Installation of the new system began in Drayton Hall, the new headquarters of the University Players on Monday, September 22, and is expected to be completed the first week in October. When fin ished, it will be superior to the lighting system of the Town Theatre and approximately equal to that of Township Auditorium, Professor Crotty said.

NAME__ _ STREET __ _ CITY__ _ STATE______ Bailey To Visit-. October"7 Major Mildred C. Bailey, Wo men's Army Corps Career Guid ance Officer in the .8o4thern. States, will visit the University on October 7. Arrangements have been made by Miss Elizabeth Clot worthy, Dean of Women, for her -to meet informally with interested women students in Sims College between the hours of 2 and 4 p.m. There is a specific purpose in Major Bailey's planning a visit during the first part of the school year. She stated, "It has been our experience that women do not make hasty decisions concerning their careers; therefore, it Is our desire that qualified young women have ample time to consider and weigh all factors of the military career field before making a decision." "For the same reason, we wel come the opportunity to contact women in their freshman and sophomore years as well as those in the later phases of their col lege training. It is felt that the Army offers a wonderful career opportunity for women college graduates who can qualify for a di rect commission in the WAC Of ficer Program; while our College Junior Program offers the young women an opportunity to sample Army life for a thirty-day period without obligation." Major Mildred Bailey A member of the Women's Army Corps who received her commis sion the same year the Corps was organized, Major Bailey is from Kinston, N. C. She las seen the Corps become an integral and honored part of the military estab lishment. She was a member of the third officer candidate class to receive the gold bars of second lieutenant in August, 1942, at Des Moines, Iowa. A graduate of the Woman's College of the University of North Carolina, where she majored in French and English, Major Bailey later taught those languages in a Taylorsville, N. C., high school.

Every 'day they have four hours of clinical experience with patients and two hours of nursing classes. They are learning the fupdamen tals of nursing such as giving afternoon'care, learning to observe patients, taking blood pressures, temperatures, and the like, Miss Amy E. Viglione, head of the School of Nursing, has annouuced. In the past, student nurses have been sent to hospitalq. which have not been near the campus. Be cause of this, the University had assumed very little responsibility for planning or directing the clin ical- instruction of the students, Miss Viglione said. This year the Nursing School is revising and expanding nursing education offerings. The 40 fresh men entering nursing this fall are the first enrolled in the new four year prograjn. They will start their clinical experience at the beginning of the second year of nursing and will live on campus.

R FOR UNIVERSITY PLAY Drayton Than Wa By BILL L Staff V Empty, locked, dark and silent, x the old Warehouse Theatre stood deserted in the Septembei early evening moonlight at 7:00 p.m., I Thursday, September 18, as ' its former inhabitants filed with hushed voices and silent tread into their newer and more spacious quarters across the street. For many yeaks the small, con- I crete builaing behind Preston had I been the home of the University Players; its midget stage had been the scene of many a play, some 1 Shakespearean, some by the great Greek tragdelans, some by 18th century writers like Wilde and Goldsmith, some by contemporary writers such as Christopher Fry and Eugene O'Neill, but all fine amateur productions by University students. These students had once clam bered around on the steel beams which support the ceiling to rig up borrowed or ancient and bat tered lighting equipment, held countless meetings and rehearsals within its walls, painted sets on its dusty and impossible-to-clean concrete floor, and made its raft ers ring with the sound of hammer and saw as sets and flats were assembled by- the students them selves. More Room But an old warehouse, and a small and rather dingy one at that, is hardly the ideal place for a dra matics organization. Its audience capacity was too small, as was its stage, and the equipment in it was old and inadequate, especially the lighting system. IJuring the years the Players were there, their ingenuity was sometimes severely taxed in put ting on a top performance in view of its physical limitations. The move to larger, better equipped, and more attractive Drayton Hall was therefore almost inevitable as soon as it became available. The purchase of a new lighting system for Drayton Hall removed a major objection to the move, and paved the way for the Players te move ENGLISH Instrument fc r mules ..... ...... sA^ Lucky Strik iest, easiest wi ROOD WORD ANE Speak English all your life ar it get you?
