As surely as life rose from the sea, the future of life depends on it. It is the salient feature of the globe. Its fate is ours. With population rising, some scientists talk of farming the oceans. Others speak of extracting products from igneous rock and seawater. But whatever men may evolve, the role of the sea in the chemistry and health of our planet is crucial. The better we understand it. the better our chances of protecting the ecological balance among all of earth's creatures—from marine life to man. Yet, even while fact displaces mystery, our awe of the sea endures. The pecten shell is an emblem for companies known around the world. But its beauty is no less in its origin than its form. And it reminds us to keep a sense of urgency in the quest for knowledge of our environment. AT THE CENTER, continued

ALLIANCE THEATRE COMPANY

Alliance Theatre School Announces Scholarship Recipient Mimi Bernstein, a native of Ellenville, N.Y., is the first recipient of the Georgia Magazine Theatre Scholarship at the Al­ liance Theatre School. At the inauguration of the quarterly scholarship, James L. Townsend, Georgia Magazine editor and publisher said, "We’ve always regarded Georgia Mag­ azine as a vehicle for talent in our state and a public forum for writers, poets, photographers and artists. Our editorial concept will more and more em­ brace and support all of the art forms in Georgia, and this scholarship is an op­ portunity for us to express our sincere appreciation of the performing arts.” Fred Chappell, new Director of the Alliance Theatre School, expresses his enthusiasm that “a leading magazine of the South is fostering the arts on such a real level. When organizations out­ side of the theatre offer an opportunity for young theatre students to train on a local level they offer a practical way for regional theatre to grow.” Miss Bernstein was chosen on the basis of talent by David Bishop, Manag­ ing Director of the Alliance Theatre Company, Fred Chappell, Susan Orpin, Administrator of the School and mem­ bers of the School’s faculty. Miss Bernstein has studied at Stella Adler Studio, Lee Strasberg’s Actor’s Studio, Herbert Berghoff Studios and at the Pittsburg Playhouse. A newcomer to Atlanta, she last acted with the Mont­ gomery Little Theatre in Alabama in such roles as “Honey” in WHO’S Tours and Cruises ... AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLFE? and “Sally” in ALL THE WAY HOME. by Air and Steamship

Hoffman’s tale “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.” The story is placed in the city of Nuremberg, Germany in the 19th century. The dream fantasy takes place on Christmas Eve, when a little girl receives a gift nutcracker shaped like a soldier. Later, when she slips downstairs to see her nutcracker, it miraculously turns into a live prince and takes her to his kingdom in the Land of Sweets. There they meet the Sugar Plum Fairy, who holds a celebration in their honor. She and many of her subjects dance for Mary and the Little Prince.
