A new Course
Center stage - a new and
exciting course directed by Dr.
John Patterson.
The course is American
Studies 4988 alias American
Popular Theater. Dr. Patterson
promises a lot of work, but also
a very exciting and interesting
study focusing on a production
of a single 19th century play.
It’s conceived as, “An
experimental effort in American
Studies and not primarily as a
course in theater history or
production.”
The class will meet during
two double class periods per
week. It will consist of lectures,
rehearsals, and seminars. The
play chosen by Dr. Patterson is
entitled, “The Spy of Atlanta, a
Grand Military Allegory in Six
Acts.” It was written by A. D.
Ames and C. G. Bartley in 1875.
The class will also concern itself
with the evolution of American
attitudes during the 19th and
20th centuries.
Dr. Patterson hopes he can
find students as enthusiastic as
he is to approach the study of
the American personality with a
slightly different approach.

A Tip
of the
Hat to Peg
Last May the newspaper ran a
“Name the Capitolist Contest.”
No one seemed very interested
and the contest along with the
paper were going down the
drain.
All summer long the new
editors thought and thought,
trying to come up with a
suitable name for its tired paper.
A name that would carry on a
tradition of responsible contact
with the real world as well as
cement the ties between
students and faculty and this
fine institution of higher
education.
A name without those
childish endings such as “ist” or
“ite.” A name that would send
Ben Franklin turning in his grave
or Clark Kent up a wall.
Well, it happened (a new
name that is). And it has come
to us through a clairvoyant and
slightly intoxicated little blonde
named Peggy Furey.
What’s in a name - right Peg?
She is the grand prize winner
of a trip to anywhere she can go
with the five dollars we are
giving her.
Thanx for the name, Peg and
we hope to hear from you when
you return from your wonderful
voyage.

Highlights from Saint Joan
“Saint Joan,” one of the
world’s most inspiring dramas of
a woman’s faith and the price
she was willing to pay for her
beliefs, will be presented by the
Alpha-Omega Players on
Tuesday, October 2 at 2 p.m. on
the lawn in the rear of the main
building, (in the event of rain it
will take place in the
Auditorium). No Charge!
Written by George Bernard
Shaw, “Saint Joan” tells the
stirring story of a peasant girl
who was led to great heights by
God’s commands and ultimately
was led to the stake by those she
opposed.
Shaw said of her, “There are
only two opinions about her:
One that she was miraculous and
the other that she was
unbearable. She asserted herself
with such force that she was
famous throughout Western
Europe before she was out of
her teens. It is hardly suprising
that she was burnt for
Susan Coleman
Robert Smith
September 26,1973
unwomanly and insufferable
presumption.”
The Alpha-Omega Players,
the nation’s most active
repertory theater headquartered
in Dallas, Texas, which has
achieved international fame for
its dramatic presentations, will
offer a special adaptation of the
Shaw play patterned to today’s
challenges.
In addition to her inspiring
personal portrayal, Joan will be
seen in moving moments with
Captain Dunois of the French
forces, the sympathetic but
militant churchman Ladvenue,
the whimpering Dauphin, and
the Archbishop of Rheims.
This fast-moving presentation
of the effectively staged
highlights of “Saint Joan” is the
work of Drexel H. Riley,
executive producer of the
Alpha-Omega Players, who also
serves as the director.
