Film Society presents 'Iron Will' in tribute to J. M. Hayes

By Jack Vaitayanonta | January 10, 1994

The Dartmouth Film Society honored John Michael Hayes, a Hollywood screenwriter and professor of Film Studies at the College in a tribute which included a sneak preview of his exciting new film, "Iron Will" in Spaulding Auditorium last Saturday. Hayes has long been regarded as one of the film industry's most talented and distinguished screenwriters, best known for his collaboration with Alfred Hitchcock in the 1950s on such films as "Rear Window" and "The Man Who Knew Too Much." Before his work with Hitchcock, Hayes had an extensive career writing for radio and screen and was known for the ability to adapt important plays and novels which were judged to be unfilmable.

By Rick Owen | January 5, 1994

By Susan Zieger | November 24, 1993

A spotlight parts the darkness, revealing a muscular female figure, black hair amuck and bared torso slick with what appears to be blood. "Were you a witness?" she intones throatily, then commences to sing, shriek, whisper, cackle, gasp and ululate, conjuring visions of a soul in hell.

A capella groups sing in your room

By Ally Hyun | November 24, 1993

Dartmouth's a capella groups typically perform in front of a standing-room only crowd during their concerts. Two acts, the Dartmouth Decibelles and the Dartmouth Aires, released albums earlier this term so groupies can listen to the musical talent of these groups in the comfort of their own rooms. Although both albums are well produced, the magic of a live performances -- a key ingredient to both groups' concerts -- can never be reproduced on tape, but all fans should definitely add these albums to their collections. Twenty-three songs appear on "Aires to the Throne," the latest album by the popular Dartmouth Aires.

Graham reveals the 'Dartmouth Story'

By Allison Sciortino | November 22, 1993

Anyone who has crossed the Green alone at night and listened for the laughter and footsteps of past Dartmouth students in the rustling leaves should read Robert Graham's "The Dartmouth Story." The book, published in 1990, was given to incoming freshman at convocation, but is a good read for anyone that has spent time at the College. While leading the reader on a historical tour of the Dartmouth campus, Graham first explains the history of the College and then reveals interesting facts such as the origins of the College's name and motto, former functions of the Colleges' buildings and the stories behind campus traditions such as 4 o'clock tea at Sanborn Library. Graham discovered these hidden aspects of the College through fours years of intense research and 20 years of casual questioning. The author begins his proverbial tour at Dartmouth Row, which he refers to as the "crown jewel" of the campus.

Director takes stage; Loehlin speaks on contemporary 'Measure'

By Susan Zieger | November 18, 1993

The director of a theatrical production rarely graces the stage on which he has worked so hard to shape a drama, but James Loehlin stepped into the limelight of Center Theater on Tuesday afternoon to deliver a long, not-so-dramatic monologue titled "Shakespeare's Urban Problem Play." Loehlin's currently running production of "Measure for Measure," which he contemporized and set in an unspecified, deteriorating city (although the Brooklyn accents of some of the characters lead one to speculate) opened last week to campus-wide praise. The play's central themes, Loehlin felt, resonate keenly with a modern audience.
