PAGE FOUR THE NEWBERRY SUN THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1959 JLee Pageant Is Described At U.D.C. Meeting The May meeting of Drayton Rutherford Chanter, at the home of Mrs. S. C. Griffith, v/ith Mes- dames J. E. Wiseman and Louis Floyd as associate hostesses was well attended. The president, Mrs Wright led the salutes to the flags and Mrs. A. J. Briggs conducted the Ritual. After the approval of the min utes, the Historian, Mrs. Wiseman, announced that Mrs. D. O. Carpen ter would speak of Paul Green’s latest work, ‘The Confederacy,” a symphonic outdoor drama, based on the life of General Robert E. Lee. Mrs. Carpenter described this play as made up of drama, music, dancing, choral work, and narra tion, with unusual sound effects and colorful lighting contributing to the overall effect. The setting of this beautiful drama is a cleared space in a 75- foot pine forest near Virginia Reach. The acoustics are excellent ^md the stages tremendous—one great central stage 64 by 40 feet and two side stages as large as the usual theater stage. “The Confederacy” consists of nine scenes in each of two parts. Opening on the campus of Wash ington College in Lexington, Va., in a series of flashback scenes, enacted are some of the high points of Gen. Lee’s life from April ,1861 when he was offered a commission as commanding general of the Union Army, to August 1865 when he was offered the presi dency of Washington College. Ex ceedingly effective is the presen tation of each of these episodes. The climax comes at Appomatox in the spring of 1865 when Gen. Lee made his gallant and noble sur render. The drama closes when Lee accepted the presidency of Washington College so that he might further “the education of Southern youth into a spirit of loyalty to the new conditions.” As a dramatic production “The Confederacy” takes equal rank with Paul Green’s “Lost Colony” and “The Common Glory” that have been running for years with ever increasing interest. “The Confederacy” should be a _ must for every Southern vacationist this summer.

Dairy Farm, Montgom ery, Ala., they say this 4-wheel drive Chevy will go anywhere to keep stock fed—even through hub-deep muck that makes it a fight all the way. And yet after a full year of it—no mechanical trouble of any kind! That Chevy pickup may not win any beauty awards (till it’s cleaned up). But it’s sure walking off with the top prize for depend ability. And that’s standard Chevrolet proce dure. Put a Chevy truck to work and it keeps on working until you say quit. Not before. We aren’t claiming that every Chevrolet truck is turning out to be a miracle-worker and averaging 100,000 miles before a valve job. (Even though some are going 150,000!) You're sure to find, however, that you can't buy more truck dependability at any price. And that’s borne out by the fact that more truck owners put their faith, and their pay- loads, in Chevrolets than in any other make. Take your load and schedule figures to your Chevrolet dealer. He’ll specify the “best way to handle both and save in the bargain. , < i No job’s too tough for a Chevrolet, truck! Now’s the time—see your local authorized Chevrolet dealer for a real truck buy!
