Reporter: Bea Madison Art Exhibition Displayed at Clark The Clark College Art De partment has on display in the foyer of the Administration building paintings by T. Maurice Pennington. Mr. Pennington is a native of Louisville, Kentucky; however, he has become known in the Atlanta area for his ac tivity in local as well as re gional art groups. Mr. Pennington has exhibited in the Atlanta Arts Festival, The Atlanta University National Ex hibition of Negro Artists, The Tuskegee Beaux Arts Festival, The Mozley Park Arts Festival, and he is represented in a num ber of private collections. The paintings on display at Clark indicate the range and sensitivity of the artist. His paintings extend from realistic still life and non-objective paint ings in oil to very expressionistic paintings in polymer. In a word, Mr. Pennington's paintings are quite diverse in method and subject matter, yet they exhibit a “presence" that is uniquely his own. The exhibition is open daily to the public, and it will run until October 15. Dr. Stella B. Brookes Dr. Brookes Addresses Freshmen Class “The Future Belongs to Those Who Prepare for It” Dr. Brookes told students entering Clark College. Certain phrases from literature and life which she said were worth remember ing were: “There are no gains without Pains" “Compare yourself today with yourself yesterday” “Develop inner resources to help you withstand the shocks of Fate” “Count only that happiness which gives you pleasure at the moment and pleasure in the memory afterwards” She urged students to con sider carefully the major and minor fields of concentration and pointed out that often suc cess depends upon the proper choice of one’s vocation—being “in the right place.” Setting goals toward which to strive, she thought important; however, she said these should be “attainable goals". She pointed out the folly of setting goals in areas in which persons had no talent, a capability for development and enrichment. Once the field of concentra tion is chosen, she said: “Desire is not enough.” One must work —work hard. She quoted an author who wrote: “Success is spelled with four letters, WORK, and Failure is spelled with five, SHIR K.” “In times of immeasurable and cataclysmic changes, there is a great need for development of inner resources to help us withstand the pace and shocks of contemporary life,” she con cluded. ‘A New Adventure” Wanted!
