Recieves Phi Beta Kappa key
Actress Helen I
By BILL DOUGLAS
Gamecock Staff Writer
A touch of Hollywood and New York walked into the
Russell House last Saturday evening.
That touch came in the petite and graceful form of
actress Helen Hayes, who was on the USC campus
to receive honorary initiation into the Alpha
chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. "I hardly knew whether
to cheer or faint. 1 ,who have trouble with crossword
puzzles in the New York Times," she said. "It took
me four tries just to write a letter of acceptance to the
invitation and to 2et the snellinc and thp tframmnr
correct, at least I think it was correct."
Hayes said she did not attend a college or university,
but she did belong to the academy of the theatre.
Hayes did not receive a formal education
because she began her acting and touring career at
the age of eight. She did get both a theatrical and
formal education by reading various books and
learning from many theatrical greats.
"I has given me such intellectual riches as I could
wish for every young person in America. I studied
under one of the most exciting faculties anyone ever
had," she said. "My hours were erratic, my
classrooms were trains and dressing rooms, hotel
. rooms and theatre wings, but I knew the joys of one to'
one tutoring by some of the great teachers of our'
time.
THE DISTINGUISHED actress spoke of the
theatre people.who gave her an education. "I learned
literature and history from William Gillette," she
said. "He was the son of a United States senator and
he was once a friend and a secretary to Mark Twain.

He wrote a play for himself that virtually typecasted
him for all posterity as Sherlock Holmes," Hayes
said.
"I worked with Mr. Gillette in J. M. Barrv's 'Dear
Brutus' and along with teaching me by example some
of the magic of extremely gifted actors, he also led
me through the wonderful pages of Mark Twain,
enriching them with his intimate knowledge and the
admiration he had for the writer. We read everything
including all of his published letters."
Hayes met USC president James B. Holderman in
Illinois. "I worked with him (Holderman) years ago
at the University of Illinois at Chicago campus. I held
classes there in theatre. It was the only time I tried
teaching," Hayes said.
Though she didn't have an opportunity to see
'Carousel,' a production of the USC theatre department
until Sunday, she lauded the beauty of
Longstreet theatre and commented on college
theatre. .
"I think that not only has college theatre
progressed, but it has pulled the whole theatre up
with it. I think it's the salvation of the whole theatre.
