Art Publications
Praised By Many
Murals and Art Course
Described in Bulletins
Well deserved is the favorable
comment on the two recent publica­
tions dealing w.th the art department.
They are, without question, the finest
ever issued to date.
“Art Education at Edinboro,” ed­
ited by Mr. Bates, head of the art
department, gives a clear picture of
the art school. The text is well writ­
ten, and the excellent choice of illus­
trations show many of the students
at work and some of the finished pro­
ducts illustrating various phases of
art work offered by the college. Of
particular merit is the remarkable
collection of photographs depicting
the natural beauty that surrounds Ed­
inboro.
“Murals at Edinboro,” contains
faithful reproductions of the mural
paintings which were executed by
art students in the corridor of Nor­
mal Hall. It also describes and ex­
plains the individual paintings of this
project in considerable detail.
Copies of the latter publication
are available to the student body.
The art students have received cop­
ies of “Art Education at Edinboro.’

An elaborate program of testing,
sponsored by the American AssociaGin;'. ton of Teachers Colleges showed

Students in twenty high schools in

wear the membership pin of the Jun­

Teachers College.
This club, according to Mr. Bates,
is for the purpose of organizing in
the high schools those students who
are interested in art, and who expect
to extend their study and interest
in this field. A charter from the
ScaRAb Club at Edinboro is grant­
ed to the group which wishes to or­
ganize as a Junior ScaRAb Club, and
each member is qualified to wear the
pin showing that he is a member.
These clubs help to promote inter­
est in art work and give their mem­
bers a center of interest for their
work.
This is one of the ways in which
the art department at Edinboro is
growing, expanding and serving more
people over a greater area.

K. Skelton Directs “The
Late Christopher Bean”
“The Late Christopher Bean,” an
exceptionally popular three act com­
edy by Sidney Howard, is to be pre­
sented Tuesday, March 14, by the Ed­
inboro Players under the competent
direction of Keith Skelton.
Miss
Jane Ludgate is supervising the pro­
duction.
Director Keith Skelton has inform­
ed the Spectator that “The Late
Christopher Bean” has been perfect­
ly cast. Ruth Hagerson is portray­
ing the characted “Abby”, who is the
only person who understood Christo­
pher Bean, loved him and made his
short life happy.
Doctor Haggett,
portrayed by Joe Zahniser, is a typi­
cal country doctor, who reverses his
character to appease the greedy de­
sires of “Mrs. Haggett” (Maxine
Teetsel) and “Ada” (Billie Gilles­
pie), one of his daughters. Other
members of the cast are Lee Jeffords,
Martin Shimko, Shirley Swift, Chuck
Lewis and Leon Mead.
Because of the popular price of
admission, the Edinboro Players look
forward to a large audience.

LETS ALL GO

Last week an officer of the “E” Club asked if the Spectator would boost
its proposed social activities. The Spectator will not only boost the ac­
tivities but will endeavor to promote an increased attendance at them. What
we need at Edinboro is a desire for more social activities. This desire is
present we know, for we always hear the cry for dances and other forms of
entertainment, but the number of activities seem to indicate the desire is
not strong enough and felt by enough of us. If it was, we would have these
activities more often, and as a result of our wanting them, they would be
successful financially as well as socially. If we find we absolutely can't
support and promote dances we should continue not having them at the pre­
sent, but why do that?? Can’t a group of our size promote them when a
good number want them and will support them if they are well planned?
Informality Solution

Some really good dances have been held this year and only one has
been successful. We should be ashamed to let this happen. If we want
dances, we’ll have them and go to them. If we don’t want them, we won't
have them, as at the present.
Perhaps we should hold a sweater dance with recorded music every
Friday or Saturday or at least every two weeks. The expense should be
negligible for this form of entertainment. This should not be hard to pro­
mote and support.
Success Is Possible

If we want dances and entertainments, let’s have them and let nothing
stop us if we want them ... but it's up to each boy and girl in school* to
promote and support; not to stand by and watch indifferently. We need
pep and inspiration in connection with social events. If the “E” Club h
