On one of my recent trips to New York, as I was sightseeing on Broadway, lwas confronted by a huge billboard announcing the opening of a new theater and the coming of a wonderful play to Broadway. Upon inquiring l discovered thetheater was owned and operated by Sam Walker and Dorothy Cook. Bobbie Chattin and Ronny Freeman were their chief ushers. The play was a revised version of Macbeth. Some of the names on that billboard looked strangely familiar. As I pondered over the names it suddenly occurred to me. Why those were some of the members of the dramatics club I remembered from my high school days! It was written on the billboard: starring Tony Forrest as Macbeth and co-starring Mary Lou Quillin as Lady Macbeth. Playing with them were Jane Painter, Bobby Leonard, and Gray Potts. The play was produced by John Gaither and Ruth Green. The directors were Patsy Nail and Peggy Lambe. The revised version had been rewritten by Nancy Cozart. lt certainly appeared as if Mrs. Hicks' training in that dramatics club had proved worth while. As I walked on down the street, I heard someone mentioning a coming attraction to the theater. . .Gene Plott and his world-renowned orchestra. Some of the members of his orchestra were Marilyn Spencer, William Long, Nancy Safley, Bill Veach and Gordon Cornatzer. I recognized those musicians from High School. Iremembered that they used to be very musical. On my way back to the hotel, owned by Alvin Myers, I bought a newspaper, The New York Herald Tribune. I was very pleased to see that Carmen Rice was editor of this paper. Working with her were Inez Nichols as associate editor and Johnsie Ellis and Tama Sue Markland as business managers. They had finally reached the top in the iournalism field. I decided to have a seat on a park bench and see what kind of paper my classmates were publishing. As I looked at the front page of the paper I saw a picture of the President of the United States, Donald Danner, as he was delivering his Stateof the Union Address. Seated in the background was the Vice-President, Bud Rich. Some of the North Carolinians in the President's Cabinet wereFIake Blackwood, Secretary of State, Tom Sexton, Secretary of the Treasury, Gary Groce, Secretary of Defense, and Joe Brown, Attorney General. It looked as if North Carolina was well represented these four years. On the next page I saw an interesting item about the current Miss America, Winifred Davis. It seemed that she had decided to give up her title for a more im- portant one beginning with Mrs. She was going to turn her present titleover to Martha McDaniel . Next was an enlightening editorial on Life in the I96O's by Sylvia Stroud. Looking on through the paper I was surprised to see that society playboy Donald Miller was finally settling down to married life. I saw that Carolyn Rutledge and Ann Rankin were making quite a name for them- selves writing comic strips. Carolyn does the writing and Ann does the art work. They had recentlyqtaken over Al Capp's comic strip, Li'l Abner. Also, Joyce Whitaker and Ann Taylor had taken over Amy Vanderbilt's column on etiquette. On the sports page I saw that Denny Rollins, Charles Jamerson, Mackie Deadmon, and Jim Miller had signed with the Globetrotters after quite an argumentovera long- term contract. And speaking of basketball, I see that Joan Shore, Carolyn Boger, Lucy King, Alma White, Camilla Jarvis and Floretta Collette have organized a Lady-Globetrotters team and they seem to be making an excellent record for them- selves.
