In connection with the twenty- fifth season Mrs. Bessie Briscoe ar¬ ranged a special Summer Theatre ex¬ hibit in the Trevor Arnett Library. The Summer School Chorus, under the direction of Dr. Willis L. James, presented a varied program ranging from the classics through Negro folk music. A special feature of the pro¬ gram was a group of Negro songs ar¬ ranged by Dr. James. Appearing with the Chorus were Lawrence Weaver and Tranas Lee Long, pianists, Sylvia Lee Jones, Laurine Weaver. Judith Owens and Dorothy Hunter, sopranos, and David Still, organist. Dr. Grace Boggs was accompanist.

He urged tolerance for difference and de¬ plored assembly-line education.
