Friday, June 22, 1962 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 Book Review by Clyde Ray The Ulysses Theme By w B STANFORD The sun of the new day was two hours old when you began to awake. After a light breakfast, you attended a morning class, checked the mall, talked to two men and a woman, and attended a morning class. Little did we think, when the door opened, that the Mariner Stanford would pay us an intimate visit. Wracked and bent from a life of toil and wandering, he came painfully before US, leaving behind him a trail ot sea-weed, sea-shells and sparkling sea-water. Homer turned empty sockets to the marriage-bed, the spear-point, and the water- crest and combined all to form the long suffering motif of Odysseus. A silent, thoughtful man of medium height and stocky build, he thrusted strong spears into Trojan warriors and afterwards fought the will of Gods, Men and Deamons to win his return to the arms of Penelope. He passes among these words and letters now: Grey eyes flowing westward, followed by heavy arms, and torso, and feet, and multitudes of spears, and the timbers of many ships. When our Captain is at the ropes, it is his custom to reflect quietly on the course of time and fortune. Words of contemplation and thought cross his mind cross-wise as he lashes brine-encrusted thongs together Once, a visitor by the name of Shakespere came on board for a visit. He sat quietly and watched from the bows, smiling and watching inquisitively the under-tie and over-cross of line and thong. I dreamed that dark waves blotted out the sun and that my body, heavy with salt, spun slowly through deep waters to the Gates of Hades. There, I was imprisoned in a two-pronged fork of flame, from which I spoke In agony to two descendants of the accursed Trojans, by name Virgil and Dante. He awakens under the brightly shedding leaves of a i Through the boughs, the blue of the sea touches his soul. He does not think of Ithaca, Telemachus, or even Penelop* Three inhabitants of the land called Pascoli, Tennyson and Kazantzakis—point out to him distant nautical landmarks to the North, East and South. When Dawn breaks, he is still asleep. Ithaca rests on the horizon, but no one dares disturb him. In the dreams of Odysseus, Odysseus returns to the song of the sirenes, he visits the grave of Circe, he climbs among the clouds and buries his face once again in the soft shadowing hair of Calypso. When he enters the teeming city, he is greeted by an official called Joyce. Odysseus smokes a cigar, dons black pants and coat, and walks slowly past tin- store windows of Dublin with hands clasped behind his back. His odyssey completed, he opens the door to his home under Vega. There he sees before him a desperate young man, and then Molly of the nostalgic smile. You were tired when night came. Slowly, you walked up the hill, with your books under your arm. At a late hour, you went to bed—you slept a dreamless sleep—and only when the sun of the new day was two hours old did you begK,n to awake. MR. AARON HYATT, member of the college music faculty, chats with Miss Kristie Asbury, attractive University of Michigan coed who will appear as oboe soloist in tonight's Faculty Concert. Ray Gibbs, W.

For the past three years, Western Carolina College has asked the state legislature to appropriate funds for the construction of a swimming pool. Three years they have been turned down. Until—someone got the right kind of idea. This year's appropriation request called for a natatorium. Uh what? Yes, a natatorium. The swimming pool is under construction beside the gym. And speaking of swimming pools, from the president of a local Methodist college comes this note: "The Baptists have the only indoor swimming pool in the area. Why in the world can't we have one?" He was refering to the baptistry, naturally. The Living End A small boy, while away at summer camp, penned this jewel to his horror-stricken parents: "Dear Mommy and Daddy, I learned to swim across the lake. I did it last night after chow when no one was looking." And that is truly, The Living End. Community Theatre Will Be Opening At Highlands In July The Highlands Community Theatre will be opening the summer season with a production of Lillian Hellman's Little Foxes early in July. Try-outs were held last night, June 21, and rehearsals begin immediately. The Theatre, founded in 1939 by Jack and Ted Wilcox has been under the direction of Fred C. Allen for the past few years. Mr. Allen teaches drama and English at the University of Virginia. Last summer he recruited a group of resident players from New York to work in the Theatre group, several of which will return this summer. Nicole Jaffe of Montreal, Canada, will return to Highlands and the theatre after completion of her movie shooting schedule in New York, Bob Miller, another of the players, returns from winter stock work in Lake Worth, Florida. Morton Lewis, who played in an off-Broadway production last year, will be special stage assistant this summer. Casting is open; anyone in the community interested in any phase of theatre work is welcome to come and sign up for work in the theatre or for classes in acting, direction, make-up, and other areas of theatre work that will be held during the day by Mr. Allen. The Theatre does four productions during the summer season and invites theatre-goers from the surrounding area to lina College's Alumni Distingu ished Service Awards June 2 at the annual senior-alumni banquet. T. Ray Gibbs, formerly of I Whittier, was honored for his contributions in the field of public education, and Walter Carringer of Murphy for his accomplishments in vocal music. Gibbs received the bachelor of science degree at WCC in 1934, and the master of arts de- | gree from the University of North Carolina in 1949. He later did post graduate work at Duke University. He has served variously as teacher, coach, principal, and superintendent, at Whittier, Webster, Mars Hill, and Mineral Springs. For five years he was assistant superintendent of Forsyth County Schools (Winston-Salem), and in 1956 became superintendent of that unit. He holds membership in numerous professional and civic organizations; is a member of the Governor's Committee on Aging, chairman of the Forsyth County Board of Health and of the United Fund. He was a visiting lecturer at Wake Forest College last summer, and was invited to return there for the 1962 summer term. Gibbs is credited with the instructional and administrative re-organization of the Forsyth County school system from the traditional 8-4 to the 6-3-3 plan. Recently he was chosen as one of twenty-five American educators to spend a month visiting in the emerging nations of Africa during the coming year. Carringer attended Western Carolina College for one year in 1946, after which he transferred to Columbia University to earn the bachelor of science degree in music. Prior to enrolling at WCC, he had spent two and one-half years in the U. S. Army, during which time he appeared in numerous USO shows and bond selling tours. While a student at WCC, he won the While a senior at Columbia, Carringer was engaged by Robert Shaw, director of the famed Robert Shaw Chorale, and performed with that group as tenor soloist for three and one-half years. Highlights of that experience included concerts in Town Hall and Carnegie Hall in New York City; recordings for RCA Victor; radio and television appearances; and six nation-wide tours, one of which covered a performance in the WCC lyceum series. He sang here again with the Brevard Symphony two years ago, and has toured with the North Carolina Little Symphony. In 1953 Carringer left the Chorale to devote full time to solo concert work. He made his European debut in a London recital in 1958, and in 1959 was one of 12 young artists from over the world selected to sing under the auspices of the New Orleans Opera Company. He has received complimentary reviews in many of the nation's leading newspapers, including The New York Times, and has an outstanding record of premiere performances of oratorios. For the past two years he has served as music master at the Haithcock School in Greenwich, Conn., in addition to continuing his solo concert career. A professional commitment prevented his being present to receive the WCC award; however, his mother, Mrs. Ruth Carringer of Murphy, accepted for him. Recipients of the Alumni Distinguished Service Award are chosen by a special committee, after nominations have been made by any member of the Alumni Association who wishes to do so. Fentriss Is Promoted To Regional Manager NEW YORK, N.Y. — R. H. Fentriss, an alumnus of Western Carolina college and native of Pilot Mountain, has been promoted to Regional Manager, Region Two, South America, for IBM World Trade Corporation, a subsidiary of International Business Machines Corporation. The Region consists of Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru and Colombia. Prior to this promotion, Mr. Fentriss served as Administrative Assistant to IBM WTC President A. K. Watson. Mr. Fentriss joined the parent company in 1956 in Greensboro, North Carolina. Little Theatre Players Are Working On Special Production For Summer Cullowhee's Little Theatre Players are working on a special production for First Summer Session theatrical entertainment. A play is being selected for a reading in what is termed "closet drama." Drama students from the regular theatre group who are here for the summer will be working with the theatre's top stageman Duane Oliver. The play will be selected soon, cast chosen, and everyone who is interested in theatre can see the production at the Cullowhee Little Theatre later in the session. Honesty is spiritual power. —Mary Baker Eddy Honesty isn't any policy at all; it's a state of mind or it isn't honesty.—Eugene L'Hote Honesty pays, but it don't seem to pay enough to suit a lot of people.—Kin Hubbard How desperately difficult it is to be honest with oneself. It is much easier to be honest with other people.—Edw. F. Benson I have not observed men's honesty to increase with their riches.—Thomas Jefferson visit Highlands and attend the productions beginning with Little Foxes. Music resembles poetry; in each are numerous graces which no methods teach, and which a hand alone can reach. —Alexander Pope After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. —Aldpus Huxley Let a human being throw the engines of his soul into the making of something, and the instinct of workmanship will take care of his honesty. —Walter Lippmann Poetry is music in words: and music is poetry in sound. —Thomas Fuller Poetry is the music of thought, conveyed to us in the music of language.—Paul Chatfield
