Bishop said, "The produc tion style comes out of the use of masks. With a mask the face is statuesque, becomes much more expressive, and forceF more bodily expression. 'Hecuba' is unlike anything that has been (lone here before. It is highly rhythmic and very unlike the original staging of a Greek drama.

Fi,~ ' IColiseum First Con, By JOHN DAVID SPADE Staff Writer The Carolina Coliseum staff has lined up its first large convention, Scholars Choose Carolina More of the s t a t e ' s National Merit Scholar Semi-Finalists of 1967 are attending Carolina than any other single institution. However, a larger number of the state's merit semi-finalists chose to go to out-of-state schools. A study by the USC Office of Admissions and Registration of the 162 state semi-finalists of last year - to which 108 responded - showed that 20 students enrolled at USC, 39 at other South Carolina colleges and 69 at out - of - state schools. Duke University had the highest number of students going to other states, with 14. Clemson University enrolled 11 semi-finalists. Other schools with more than two respondents attending included Furman, 7; Georgia Institute of Technology, 6; Massachusetts In Istitute of Technology, 4; Princeton University, 4; and Yale Univer sity, 3.

Lee Herbert, coliseum general manager, said that the convention will be of great value to health education and reeveation in the state. "The convention will bring academic people to the campus which can do nothing but help us. Having a convention in South Car olina will increase membership in the organization in the state. This was the first team effort on the part of the coliseum staff to book a convention," said Herbert. The Coliseum will cost non-Uni versity users $750 a day rental fee, according to Dr. Thomas F. Jones. If this figure is less than 12 per cent of the gross sales of any scheduled event, then the rental fee will be 12 per cent of the gross sales. Herbert said that all University functions are being booked first, w h i I e non-University functions must be worked around the Uni versity schedule. The S t u d e n t Union already has its attractions booked. The South Carolina Education Association has decided to hold its convention in the Coliseum next year. This is expected to be the first large meeting to be held in the Coliseum, said Herbert. KI S.j ats to do for .H .HAR
