Allegheny opens new doors; it is for us to aspire dutifully to a purposeful end. To sportsgoes the vital job of producing SPORTS sound physical bodies to coincide with alert, keen minds. By participating in intercollegiate and intramural activities, the student adds to his character the qualities of sportsmanship and co-operation. Through the development and training of his special skills, the student not only shows a willingness to serve Allegheny, but also makes valuable use of his leisure time. The desire for victory is always uppermost in the athlete’s mind, but whether he is victorious or defeated, something is gained.

College life for an Alleghenian signifies more than just bluebooks and term papers. Here, a sound emphasis is placed on the role the student plays in the exti-a-curricular activities. Through these numerous and diversified organizations on campus, the Allegheny stu­ dent can project his individuality and per­ sonality. His talent and self-expression become evi­ dent'in dramatics, debate, music, and pub­ lications. By participating in these extt-a-curricular activities, the student not only renders a service to Allegheny, hut also develops his ORGANIZATIONS mind so that he can view broader horizons.

The Playshop opened its fall sea­ son with the sparkling production of “ Kiss Me Kate.” This modern musical version of Shakespeare’s “ Taming of the Shrew” thrilled both the students and townpeople. A congenial group of students, fac­ ulty, and professional artists com­ bined both talent and long hours of hard work in order to make the production a success. On opening night, a glittering array of costumes and scenery be­ decked the stage. Rhythmic coeds danced to the fast and slow tempo of many familiar songs from the show. Alma Alt starred as Kate, the tempestuous shrew, and W. S. Wright North portrayed the role of Petruchio, her domineering and taming suitor. The outside talent of Bette Oliver and Hank Nystrom added the pro­ fessional touch to the brilliant mu­ sical directed by Bill Walton. Witn tne line appraisal of this musical as a start, the Playshop can be assured of a very promising and successful season. JUNIOR ADVISORS . . . R ow 1.
