These included the "Black Eye," a Ha waiian minister, changes in the style of eating and new trends in faculty transportation and grooming. At the start of the fall semester, one of the big gest changes to hit the college campus in several years was the "Black Eye" coffee house. The coffee house opened on Halloween night as a retreat for students who felt a need for associa tion or entertainment. Sponsored by Grace Meth odist Church, the "Black Eye" was designed prima rily to meet the needs and desi res of the college audience. In November, Rev. Richard Wong, minister of the Congregational Community Church of Hono lulu, Hawaii, came to the campus. While he was here he was literally surrounded by his audience as he spoke to overflow crowds in Messenger Recital Hall. Rev. Wong's topic material dealt with East meets West and the transition from Oriental culture to Western. Several Southwestern students were al ready acquainted with Rev. Wong as they met him during the Pacific Area seminar. A favorite student pastime in past years has been complaining about the cafeteria service. This year students were so busy trying to figure out how the staff was going to arrange the cafeteria next that they had little time to notice anything else. Another strange affliction that hit the campus was the growing of beards. Areas hardest hit were in the speech, drama and sociology departments. 4 5 Students offered opportunities for involvement As the year progressed , students found many delving into a humanities discussion. things in which they could indulge. These acti vi Students who have worked with plays realize ties included running briskly on a cold Saturday that there is considerably more to a successful per morning to work on a play, standing in long lines formance than acting. This fact was especially in the business office, portraying Abraham Lin prevalent in the «Miracle Worker" as many stu coln, working under a bearded debate coach, or dents spent numerous late and early hours on the set. Ray Peterson's previously grown beard became a necessi t y as he pia yed the pa rt of Abraham Lincoln in « We Interrupt . ," portrating the 25th an niversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. The debate team, under the guidance of bearded coach Don Enholm, had a victorious season. Ru mor had it that Enholm's awesome appearance scared the opponents so that they couldn't debate. «Creativity" and 44 Man in Conflict" served as controversial topics for discussion in the required humanities program. Prominent lecturers were secured for both topics. Edmund Whiting, creator of 44 Whoopsie Dais),," Norman Delio Joio, a prominent American com poser and Alvina Krause, former drama coach at Northwestern University, were featured lecturers during the first semester. Second semester's lecturers included Ken Smith, Chicago social worker; Dr. Robert Hamill, dean of the chapel at Boston University and Donald Rand of the United Auto Workers. 6 7 Cultural entertainment In order to bring a more sophis ticated and cultural atmosphere to the campus, the cultural arts board was created. This board's purpose was to bring many different types of talent to the college. The first action of the board was to purchase "Whoopsie Daisy," a controversial modern sculpture. Edmund Whi ting, scul pturer and creator of "Whoopsie Daisy," was the first of the lecturers. He presented an interpretation of his 1,OOO-pound fiberglass structure and described it as an representa tion of a mother's joyous love for her child. He said the continuous linea r movemen t of the piece is as expressive of this love as the figures themselves. In the concert given by Eugene Holmes, principal baritone artist with the Metropolitan Opera National Company, South western students and the Winfield community were exposed t() a fine example of excellent professional talent. In keeping with the idea of varied presentations, Dr. Walter Judd, former congressman from Minnesota, was invited to lec ture. He charged that communist aggressors around the world are trying to win and called for an increased understanding of the sit uation to insure U.S. victory in the cold war. The cultural aspects of drama were clearly depicted by Bram well Fletcher in "An Afternoon with George Bernard Shaw." 8 Varied program of symphollic, flamenco and folk music presented at Southwestern during spring In his performance he sought to reveal the fully person of Carlos Montoya. This flamencan guitarist rounded personality of Shaw, private and public, used his own arrangements and original compo i from youth to ancient. tions based on the Spanish gypsy tradition.
