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.

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. It
gave her a valuable professional
backgrodnd for one of her World
War II assignments as a member
of the French Training Program
--an operation that brought mem
bers of the French Army of Lib
eration from North Africa to be
trained for U. S. Army service.

Nurses Now,
In ColumbOa
For T7raining
Sixteen USC girls in their third
year of nursing are now taking
their clinical instruction in medical
and surgical nursing at 6olmbia
Hospital.
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.

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
