IMPERSONATIONS OF
ACTRESSES AREGIYEN
BY DOROTHY SANDS
Shows Development of Theatre
From Po3t-RevoIutionary
Days to Present.
PRESENTS SEVEN SCENES
Introduce* Each Scene by a Short Ex-planation
and Brief History
of Original Scene*.
Dorothy Sands, in seven scenes from
the American stage and screen, gave a
highly effective performance of the de-velopment
of the theatre from the
post-Revolutionary days to the present
day. Monday evening in Aycock audi-torium.
Each scene was preceded by a
short introduction, with a brief his-tory
of the circumstances under which
the performance was originally enacted.
The first scene, which was from
Royall Tyler's "The Contrast." was pre-sented
on the 16th of April, 1787, in
Hew ToTl City. The theatre was re-splendent
with satin dresses anil shim-mering
brocades; eaadles took the
plaee'of footUgkta, the play itself was
nodeled on "The School far BeftBdftV
ami vat a contrast between the parrapt
and frivolous world of fashion common
in foreign countri'S. and the, individ-nnlity
of Amiri.-:iii ssUBere. Mi-ll
an elaborate hoopeklrt cos-tume
of pink satin and fluttered blue
brocade, plays, extremely ilrnmnticnlly,
the young girl who broadly ridicules
Knglish modes of living, and praisvs
thf rucgedii- as. of American Ufa.
The second scene was from "Adel-githa.
or The Fruits of a Single Error.*'
by M. G. l.ewes. The performance was
given by a touring troop, composed of
very mediocre ;trti?ts. most of whom
had begun life as anything but aetora.
The stages were rough cabins; the
footlight candles were stuck in pota-toes;
the room used at this presenta-tion
was over a confectionery store;
the scenery- was negligible; the play,
bombastic and crude—but it pleased
the pioneer audience. The scene, which
w— •■pfint to MlM r*W- IN a flothie
chamber overlooking the Adriatic, was
portrayed by a single waterfall. The
actors took two or three parts each, and
so Miss Sands took the part of the vil-lain,
the hero, and the heroine. The
villain, in his traditional tall black silk
hat and black moustache, approaches
threateningly; the heroine, in the royal
purple of the misled woman, shrinks
from his grasp; the hero, in silver hel
met, rattles off his lines in a stereotyped
manner. The curtain falls on the slain
heroine and villain.
California gold had attracted T»tta
Crabtree's father, and luckily Lotta at-tracted
Lola Montross, well-known ac-tress,
who taught her to dance and to
sing. As she grew older she played in
barns and in mining towns, where her
sentimental ballads moved the rough
audiences to laughter or tears. She
went on to Kan Francisco, retaining
ever her childlike innocence, and be-came
a star of the legitimate stage, a
successful actress, a nationwide idol.

DR. CLYDE TURNER IS
SPEAKER IN CHAPEL
Dr. J. Clyde Turner, pastor of the
First Baptist church of Greensboro,
spoke to tiaa students of this col-lege
at convocation on Tuesday,
February 19, 1935. He took bis
text from the 9th chapter of Mark.
Dr. Turner stated that all individ-uals
were equipped with a three-fold
vision: physical, mental, and
spiritual. He defined each type of
vision and cited the disadvantages
which an individual suffers when he
is deprived of one of them. Nature
and the Bible may bo studied to
obtain a spiritual vision. Dr. Tur-ner
further stated that the men
and women of this country haeg
lost their spiritual vision and that
there is a dire necessity to return
to their former moral standard. Ho
says that we need "spiritual recov-ery,"
and he recommended a move-ment
back to God.

ALETHEIANS ARE
CONTEST WINNERS
The Aletheian Society was v|et«>
riniis in the Freshman Play Con-tent,
held lnst night, in which the
four WMietlu* entered Into conino-tltlou.
The Alethelan offering, dl-rerfed
by Virginia Thompson, was
enii'led "Many Happy Keturns of
the Day."
Dr. Albert 8. Keister, professor of
eronomics, discussed "The Profits Sys-tem"
in the lecture room of the Home
Economics building Thursday night,
February 14. His was the second of a
series of four lectures sponsored by the
Greensboro branch of the American As-sociation
of University Women.
Dr. Keister defined the profits system
as "an economic system whose business
decisions are guided by profit." He dis-cussed
tho difference between expense
and income, explaining those criticism!
that have arisen against it. "Two per-tinent
criticisms of the profit system,"
stated Dr. Keister, "are that it results
in maldistribution of wealth and a de-rangement
of tho economic order. This
maldistribution of profits is tho base
upon which great fortunes are built.
"Profits in a capitalistic system, how-ever,
provide a stimulus for the indi-vidual,
and are the driving force which
causes him to do his economic best."
Dr. Koistcr farther assorted that "the
profits system serves a very definite
purpose to society in that it apportions
resources."
Dr. Keister concluded by suggesting
that since figures prove that average
profits are never large, "efforta should
be concentrated on curbing tho system
in tho natural resources realm where
there is much actual harm if the nat-ural
resources fall into the hands of
privste interests."
George M. Thompson, hesnt of th-orgsn
department, give* the seeosnl la)
his series of three "historieel orgsn
recitals" Sunday afternoon. Frbraary

Mr. Thompson is devoting h<a series

works of Handel and Bach, in com-memoration
of the atf-rth anniversary
of the births of both of the** eUetin
guished rompoeerB. All "vef the waeM

Both men were prolifi. ...mposers 1st
almost every form of mu«ic, and aota
were iimazingly versatile as performers
on a great variety of inntrnmenta.
Handel eventually settled in F.ag
land where he became the favorite of
the ruling monarch*, and hrsaurat n*)t
