Tonight's Concert Proves
Color Fantasia in Motion
A dance concert by the W. C.
Dance Group will be held in Ay-cock
Auditorium on February 12
at eight o'clock climaxing many
long hours of preparation.
Not only have there been many
practices to prepare each dance,
but also there has been much time
spent on the extra things such as
lighting, props, and costumes. Each
costume was designed to fit the
dance in some way and every cos-tume
has a purpose.
In order to give you. the audi-ence,
some Idea of the purposes of
the costumes in Dance Forum the
remainder of this article will be
devoted to that subject.
"Quartet" choreographed by
Dorothy Rose is a dance composed
of three groups. Each group is
costumed to represent some quali-ties
of the dancers. The realistic
people are dressed In a severe color
combinations of black and white,
while the idealistic people are in
a much softer costumes, wearing
white net dresses over blue and
black. The group Illustrating the
pragmatic people are wearing pure
red skirts with yellow diamonds
of different sizes scattered over
It. The dance begins with all three
groups on stage together, symboliz-ing
all kinds of people to make
the world. They appear in their
own groups before they come to-gether
once more at the end of
the dance.
The costumes for Miss Moomaw's
dance. "Sonata in Saffaron". are
mainly of a soft yellow trimmed
in a red-yellow It Is this reddish-yellow
color called saffaron which
gives the dance Its name.
The third dance started out from
the Idea of indecision—maybe yes
end maybe no. In the dance one
group is trying to Influence the
other to follow them and in the end
succeeds In doing this. The cos-tumes
for this dance, "Inclina-tions",
choreographed by Aramlnta
Little, are dark aqua perky skirts.
A yellow design on the costume
distinguishes one group from
another.
Rebecca Hemphill's dance, "Cas-ual
Encounters", uses costumes to
give the feeling of people on the
street. All of these peope run Into
each other, say hello, and then
leave To give the effect of street
clothes the dancers wear brown
leotards and a long rose colored

Festival of Arts Invites as Guest
Director of Guggenheim Museum
From over a white marble stair-case
I got my first glimpse at the
fabulous Mr. Sweeney, our future
guest at the Art portion of our
Festival of the Arts In April. Later,
when I got on the other end of
the staircase tvia elevator). I found \
him to be one of the most likeable
persons I have ever met
Mr. Sweeney Is a man who •«
sincerely dedicated to his field
and Is one of the best In It. His
appearance, his actions, his very
voice have an air of vitality and
greatness about them. To talk to'
him. to watch him, or Just to see;
him las from the bottom of a stair-.
easel Is an extremely pleasant ex-perience.
You feel like he might
be a young adventurer, in spite
of the "distinguished" grey hair.
whose enthulasm maintains a live-ly
freshness throughout everything
he does.
All his active life he has travel-ed
around the world giving lec-tures,
arranging exhibitions, writ-ing,
etc. Before he became the
present Director of the Solomon
R. Guggenheim Museum in New
York, he was arranging exhibitions
at the Museum of Modern Art In
Paris and at the famous Tate Gal-lery
in London. This Is all be

he'd much rather talk about the

trying to do. As he told me about
his present and future plans I had

will be dona very soon and It
