Arthur With the Summer Music Festival now in its fourth year, Festival organizers find that each year there is growing knowledge of the musical event. One sign, says Festival administrator Dr. Arthur R. Borden Jr., has been in the number of applications from students. He said that this year he had accepted students from Maryland, Missouri, New York, Virginia, Massachusetts, Indiana, Connecticut, Ohio, North Carolina, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, plus those from Florida. For the first time this year, there were applications from outside the United States. Students from Canada and t 1exico were among those applying. With the Festival opening officially tomorrow, both the Festival and the college academic year rush pell mell toward the same closing date, June 15. Director Paul Wolfe and his nine faculty will turn the campus into one great musical session for the next two weeks. One added benefit for the college is that the Festival musicians are expected to perform at Commencement exercises, to b e held in Hamilton Center Saturday morning, June 15. * more PAGE 2 NEW COLLEGE Page 2 STUDENT DIALOGS END Final meetings of the aeries of Dialogs, the special student-led seminars for the local community, were held Monday evening in Hamilton Center and once again the sessions were rated as highly successful. For the second of the aeries of sessions which were inaugurated in February by the Student Public Relations Committee under the direction of graduating student Jerry NeugaT.ten, a number of area high school students were given "scholarships" to make it possible for them to attend the aessiona in mathematics, psychology, poetry and literature. Student Don Heth, who was the leader of the psychology aeries, said his groups asked to continue the sessions next fall when the college year opens. Graduating student Allan Jaworski, who led the mathematics seminar, said his group managed to cover a substantial amount of material and that interest remained high during the entire period. John Henry Thompson, first year student from Sarasota, arranged the second series and he said that he is boping to find someone to arrange a similar aeries in the fall. * MCCARTHY POPULARITY STRONG While Sen. Eugene McCarthy was a campus favorite all over the nation, he had a particularly coterie of on the New College campus. When the presidential candidate appeared in Tampa recently, 30 students made the trip to help jam Curtis Hixon Hall for the evening, representing more than 10 per cent of the student body. One student has been state student coordinator for McCarthy and a large number of students, according to student newapaper editor Laurie Paulson, have been working both locally and on the atate level to help the Minneaota Democrat.
