PLYMOUTH PLAYERS The Plymouth Players, now in their ninth year, will remember this year for several reasons. Their first production was seen by 1,040 persons which is a record attendance to date. The other distinction was that out of all of the academic theatres in New England (state universities, colleges, etc.) only Boston University's School of Theatre and P.T.C. were singled out as doing pioneering work in the training of school theatre personnel in New England. (This was noted in the preface to the New England section of a National Directory of Academic Thea- tres in the U.S. published by the American Educational Theatre Association.) This citation brings added dictinction, publicity and cultural prestige to P.T.C. She Loves Me Not, a slick American farce, opened the season. Moliere's classic comedy, The Would-be Gentleman, followed. A thriller, suggested by the Loed-Leopold murder, Rope was the third shoyv, and the season closed with George Bernard Show's thoughtful comedy about the American Revolution, The Devil's Disciple.

STUDENT COUNCIL Studont Council Officers Linda Peterson, Raymond Thibodeau, Virginia Joseph, Douglas Wiseman All the students on campus ore members of the Student Government, but the main voice of the students rests in the Student Council, which is composed of five representatives from each class. With the help of their faculty advisors, The Dean of Men, The Dean of Women, and The Dean of Student Personnel, the student representatives meet bi-monthly to make recommendations and decisions concerning the students' life at Plymouth. This year the Student Council was primarily concerned with extending the intervisitation program to include many other colleges throughout the nearby states, and to de- velop a better relationship between the faculty and the student body. To speed up action on student problems, the Council has several committees which look into problems and present them to the Council for further action. 24 Student Council at Work Serious debate
