JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Roy Dillard, junior at the Lincoln university (Mo.) School of Journalism, has had enough success in his writing adventure, though none have been financial, to keep him smiling, working hard and reviewing manuscripts with friends. Above he is showing William Carter, Senior Journalism student, the manuscript of his latest three-act tragedy, titled "The Colonel and the Fox."

A graduate of Booker T. Washington high school, Tulsa, Okla., Dillard is interested in both the writing and acting aspects of drama. Before entering Lincoln, he wrote a 170 page novel, unpublished to date. Having played in hometown productions, the upcoming dramatic writer played the part of Laurent in the recent University Stagecrafters' production of "Therese," a two act tragedy by Thomas Job.
