Well Known
Dance Group
Is on Tap
One unusual program will be
presented at Tarleton State Col-
lege on March 10 as part of the
Civic Series by the Dance Drama
Company, which is not merely a
ballet company or a modern da^iee
company, or a jazz, or an ethnic,
or a comic group of players. They
are all of these combined.
The Dance Drama Company has
1 recently" completed a six-weeks
Repertory season in New York
City, The group of dance-players,
Headed by Eniilv Fankel, have
combined the different styles of
dance With drama and music to
product a new kind of artistic en-
tertainment.
" Miss Emily Frankel, the major
soloist and director of the com-
pany, has been acclaimed by dance
and theater critics from all over
the country as a dancer, as the
head of a rapidly expand inc.' com-
pany. and as a beauty and lyricist.
The "New York Herald Tribune"
calls her "little, lithe and utterly
lovely."
Miss Frankel, alone with Mark
Ryder, started the Danee Drama
Company in 1950 and since that
time the company has been play-
irig in legitimate theaters at uni-
versities, at civic and community
concerts, with symphony orches-
tras, on television, and on all ma-
jor dance festivals;—in 600 Ameri-
can cities, and from Canada to
Israel.
Each dance work of the Dance
Drama Company has been created
especially for it by an outstand-
ing choreographer. Each choreo-
grapher is a specialist in one of
the different dance styles or tech-
niques. The program is known as
tlie "essence of theater."

Guns, Hunting, Traveling
Keeps Cadet Boyd Busy
Students who like guns would
have a lot in common with Cadt.t
1st Lt. Richard Boyd, this week's
Cadet of the Week.
Cadet Boyd's favorite hobbies
are trap-shooting, bird hunting,
and reloading ammunition. Be-
cause of these interests, he joined
the Stephenville Gun Club. He
especially likes bird hunting, and
he likes to practice trap-shooting
at the trap range here in Stephen-
ville owned and operated by the
gun club. Boyd says that he
started reloading ammunition sev-
eral yearn ago because it only cost
about 35 per cent of the commer-
cial cost, and since then, it has
become one of his special leisure
time activities.
Likes ROTC
Boyd, a sophomore liberal arts
major from Stephenvilte, thinks
that Tarleton is one of the finest
junior colleges in the state. :IIe
says that the corps presents an ex-
cellent opportunity for most col-
lege students. "It enables one to.
serve most of his military obliga-
tion with little or no active duty.
I feel that I have 'learned many
valuable * lessons in leadership,
which, has been the most important
asset that I have gained from the-
corps."
\ Future Uncertain
After finishing at TSC, Boyd
plans to finish his schooling at
Texas University, Then he wants
to go into a business career or
possibly mane the Air Foice his
future.
Traveling also appeals very
much to Boyd. Two summers ago,
he and a friend decided to accept
a job in Illinois selling books dur-
ing the summer so they could "See
the world." "Sam and 1 decided
to hitchhike to Canada while we
were there, so in less than a week,
we traveled through Illinois,. Iowa,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan,
Indiana and Ontario, Canada—a
distance of almost 3,000 miles, I
guess that's one of the most ex-
citing experiences I've ever had,"
Boyd said.
Students Give
Program at Lions
Club Meeting
The Tarieton Speech Depart-
ment furnished the program for
the Stephenville Lions Club last
Friday at noon in the college din-
ing hall. Cecil Ballew was in
charge of the noon program and
Barbara Aldridge of Rotan gave a
short review of the controversial
book, "The Old Man and the Sea"
by Ernest Hemingway.
The Speech Department has also
given three radio programs this
past week over K.STV; the last one
on Thursday was presented with a
Valentine theme with Angela Fer-
guson giving the history of St.
Valentine's Day.
Donald Peacock of Stephenville
was the announcer for the pro-
gram on Tuesday at which time he
introduced Miss Lillie Li Hard, head
of the Speech Department, who
talked on Americanism.
