December 20, 1967 THE WORD Page 3 Operation Coin On Dec. 29, there will be a special Career Opportunities Day (Operation Coin) here at J.C.C. Operation Coin is sponsored by the Greater Watertown Chamber of Commerce working in co- operation with the National Chamber of Commerce. Its purpose is to help acquaint col- lege seniors and recent college graduates with varied opportuni- ties in this community. Similar programs are now underway in Canton, Utica, and Syracuse. James J. Butler, Chairman of Operation Coin, stated that a Career Opportunities Day is something we have needed badly for a long time. Mr. Butler also remarked that there are con- siderable job opportunities in and around Watertown of which the young people here are unaware. At the present time 130 stu- dents have indicated their inter- est in this program. Operation Coin workers have notified 45 colleges in the surrounding area. It is hoped that over 300 per- sons will participate. Before Christmas, Operation Coin kits will be distributed to students who would like them. In this manner, students are given an opportunity to indicate which companies they would like to hear more about. They will Camino Real Production Successful CARHR. OPPQKTUHITK?

La- Pierre, the Dionysian Players of Jefferson Community college put on a polished and moving performance of Tennessee Wil- liams' symbolic, one-act play at Trinity Episcopal church auditorium. Inspired by a passage from Dante's \Inferno \In the mid- dle of the journey of our life I came to myself in a dark wood where the straight way was lost,\ Tennessee Williams has depicted man's confrontation with the ug- liness and the beauty, the comedy and the tragedy of life. The royal road of life and (death), the plaza, is a very real dream of Don Quixote, the classic dreamer of all time. The cast- ing of characters was skillful, the special effects, excellent. Worth particular attention were the colorful sets, the first the Dionysians have utilized in any of their productions. While some of the early blocks began slowly, this apparent flaw was rectified in almost every in- stance as the actors became in- volved in building the mood of the scene. Noteworthy were the performances of Kilroy, the ail- American boy, portrayed by Tim Hunt; Marguerite, playedbyFran Anderson; Esmeralda, played by Nancy Warren; and Jacques Casanova, played by Joe Pecori, whose performance was solid and professional throughout the play. The character roles of Joy But- ton, the' Gypsy, who steals the show in block twelve; and Joy Blacksmith, as Nursie, were comic counterpoint to the more serious drama. Blue may be the color of dis- tance, but color this production great! --C.S. Nelson's Dry Cleaners 10% Discount to all J.C.C. students across from college entrance SEAWAY VENDING CO. INC.
