iha IMI C Vol. 11, No. 20 Eastern Montana College of Education, Billings March 7, 1958 Pictured from left to right, are Leann Stohr and Tom Fitz- Simmons rehearsing a scene from \Dark Victory.\ The play, presented at 8:15 in the Science building auditorium, is now in its second night. Health Service Increase Passed Students of Eastern Montana College of Education voted to in- crease the health service fee from $3 to $5.25 per quarter. The in- crease will go into effect in the fall and will bring the cost of tuition up to $69.25. The new plan will cover up to $500 for accidental injuries. The coverage extends 24 hours a day, vacation periods, weekends, time between quarters or semesters, and on and off campus. Varsity and intramural sports and college sponsored activities are also cov- ered by the insurance. The items covered by the old health service program will be included in the proposed plan. The cost for this increase will be $5.25 per quarter, or $8 per sem- ester. For the past two years, from 1956 to 1958, Eastern's Student Health Services has greatly ex- panded its program. Since Miss Bernadette Martin, a graduate nurse with a Master's degree in Nursing Education, came to the staff on a full-time basis, im- munizations such as polio, tetan- us, Asian Flu, and Rocky Moun- tain Spotted Fever have been of- fered. Moriarty Heads Summer Session Dr. Thomas E. Moriarty, direc- tor of secondary education at Eastern Montana College of Edu- cation, has been appointed direc- tor of the 1958 summer session. In addition to his duties in sec- ondary education, Dr. Moriarty will develop and coordinate the summer session program. He will be in charge of employing faculty members for the session, schedul- ing classes and planning work- shops and activities. Moriarty said preliminary plans call for the session to be divided into two five-week periods. One lasts from June 16 to July 11, the second, from July 21 to Aug. 22. A bulletin listing courses, work- shops and activities for the ses- sion will be published in April. From left to right are Jack Cohen and Jean Kimball. Jack plays the double role of \Mich- ael\ and the \Postman\ and Jean is \Judith Traherne,\ the leading character. Nation Observes Library March 17 to March 22 has been designated National Library Week. Mr. Chester Roberts, librarian, has stated that Eastern's library will co-operate fully in the nationwide program. The purpose of National Li- brary Week is for a better read— a better informed—America. The theme is \Wake Up and Read.\ In her statement of aims of Na- tional Library Week, Marchette Chute says, \We cannot afford a country of lazy minds and bor- dom that comes from knowing little and caring less. We can- not afford a nation of non-readers Shown is Miss Bernadette Martin. Miss Martin is East- ern's full-time nurse and will help coordinate the new health service plan. Week . . . the habit of reading is not only vital to a democratic society, but a source of enrichment to the individual himself.\ National observance of library week will have the co-operation of Jaycee clubs and women's clubs throughout the United States. Inez Herrig, National Libraries Division Chairman of the Feder- ation of Women's Clubs, has stated, \Instead of thinking of it as just another of those unending weeks celebrating numerous pro- jects, let us put a happy, hearty attention to it in the glad know- ledge that in so doing we are go- `Dark Victory' In Second Night After frustrating delays experi- enced by both cast, crew and di- rector, the play \Dark Victory\ is in its second night. This is one of the most difficult productions attempted by Eastern's little the- atre, and with 11 new members, the play can be renamed \Moral Victory.\ . Plays of this calibre are de- signed to raise the standard of college productions and make the students drama conscious as well as entertain them. The cast under the direction of Mr. William H. Sturdy has been doing two rehearsals per day for over half the time allotted. Jean Kimball, (Judith Trahearn), and Tom FitzSimmons, (Dr. Frederick Steele), have of their own volition sacrificed weekend time polishing their lines and action to help make the play a success. Jack Cohen has taken the re- sponsibility of two roles—that of Michael and the Postman, and Ken Pederson and Mr. Sturdy have burned \midnight oil\ build- ing and painting the new flats. The rest of the cast have at one time or another put in some hours on the crew as well as carrying on the roles assigned them. All who wish to see one of the two remaining performances are urged to make reservations as quickly as possible to insure a seat at curtain time which is 8:15 p.m. in the Science Auditorium. Other members of the cast in order of appearance are Miss Wainwright, Leann Stohr; Man, Harold Gilbertson; Dr. Parsons, Groll; Alden Blaine, Miss Pollari; Connie Ewing, Marlene Boysun; Janette Borden, Ruby Schwartz; Josie, K a y Bottomley; Leslie Clarke, Dick Westwell, and Miss Jenny, Miss Lawrence. Mr. Sturdy stressed the need for more interested people in drama activity.
