Woman's Thursday Club Hears Talk
W w
On Modern Mass Communications
Mrs. Robert L. Dobson, pro-
fessor of English at Howard
Payne Cbllege in Brownwood,
was guest speaker at the Wo-
man’s Thursday Gub April 2.
when it met in the home of the
president, Mrs. Everett E- Col-
bom.
Mrs. R. F. Bryan introduced
Mrs. Dobson, a former member
of the club, who was presented
by program chairmen, M r-6.
Bryan and Mrs. R. S. Vestal.
She spoke, on television and the
motion pictures as dramatic me-
dia.
The speaker defended both
forms of entertainment, tracing
the evolution of communication
from the diuvn of recorded his-
tory to the present trime, and
adding that the space age would
bring its own medium, with at-
tending problems as yet un-
dreamed of.
She emphasized strongly that
the public now has the privilege
of selectivity in choosing its en-
tertainment and making use of
leisure time. She stated that
mass entertainment would be
improved when the public de-
manded such improvement, and
that the education of individual
taste was the only democratic
weapon available to bring about
such a public demand.
Mrs. Dobson reviewed the
play, "Thomas a Beckett," by
Jean Anouilh, which is now be-
ing filmed after enjoying a long
run on Broadway. She presented
the historical plot of the play
in the sequence the playwright
used to draw his dynamic char-
acterizations of Hiomas a Beck-
ett and Henry II. The play opehs
and closes cm the king doing
penance, to expiate his murder
of the Cardinal, and the events
which led up to this conclusion
are brought out in flashbacks.
The reviewer pointed up the
opposing characteristics of the
king and the cardinal as they
were brought out by the author,
noting 14i<TChange which over-
came the cardinal when he ac-
cepted the responsibility to de-
fend the .honor of God.
• -Cookies ami Anger sandwiches
were served with coffee or
punch as members arrived.
Mrs. Col torn was assisted at the
buffet table by Mrs. R- S. Ves-
tal and Mrs. T. F. Bryan, pro-
gram chairmen.
