speak to the Student Body this Wed­

Mr. Blackmer's

in 1917 under the management of Winthrop Ames as a Young Man in "The

Greet's Company and toured with it
for some time.
Later, Blackmer joined the Uni­
ted States Expeditionary Force and
served in France until
1919. His
roles on the stage are too numerous
to list, but perhaps his greatest
was Doc in "Come Back, Little Sheba"
for which he received the Antoinette
Perry Award,
1949-50 for "the most
distinguished performance," and the
Donaldson Award,
1949-50,
as the
"best actor."
Among his many awards and hon­
ors, Mr. Blackmer was given an Hononary Doctor of Literature degree
from Catawba College in 1940, and in
1964 was presented with both the
North Carolina's Distinguished Citi­
zen award and a Doctor of Humanities
degree from his alma mater, the Uni­
versity of North Carolina. Blackmer
is a Council Member of AEA,
on the
national
board
of directors of
AFTRA,
on the board of directors of
The Players, and holds membership in
a number of theatre organizations,
among them The Lambs and the Caro­
lina Playmakers.
Mr. Blackmer's film career hpgan
in 1914, since when he has appeared
in more than 100 movies,
the latest
being "Rosemary's Baby."
