Are You In Love?
Report On Some ‘Old Timers ’ Just Married ’
/
ire You Studying?
By RICHARD ZIGLAR
Are you in love? Are you considerinK marriaKe’?
Are you wonderinjr if you should marry while in colleire’ ’
If so, this article is the one for you to read. It might
help you to make that big decision you have been ponder
ing over lately. It might open a new world for you. Really,
it might do most anything! You see, time only tells this
answer.
If your answer is “No” to the questions above, then
read this article just for “Kicks”. You cannot lose any
thing, and for goodness sake, let’s hope you don’t lose all
during your life, especially when it comes to getting
married.
For those of you who are wondering if it is possible
to be married, keep house, and go to college all at the
same time, let’s visit the apartment of Marjorie and Kelly
Byrum at the College Court Apartments. Marjorie and
Kelly are members of the Senior Class of Atlantic Chri.stian
College.
It seems that Kelly is washing the dishes while Mar
jorie is doing some studying before going to work in AC’s
library.
“Hi Marge! Wonder if you would mind if 1 talked to
you and Kelly a few minutes about your married life?
That is, if marriage does work when you are still going to
college?”
“Certainly, Richard, we will be glad to talk to you.
Hon, leave the dishes for now. Richard Ziglar is here and
he wants to talk to us about married life.”
“Hi Kelly! How are things going in the kitchen?"
‘Just fine! Let me tell you; there’s nothing like this
married life business. Just wouldn’t trade it for nothing.”
“How about you, Marge?”
“Richard, it’s really fine. I advise all who want to get
married to go ahead and do it. That is, if there is a situa
tion where they can take care of their finances.”
“Well, Marge, tell me this. J ust how do you two live?
Do you have financial worries?”
“Thank goodness no! Kelly and I know how to stretch
a dollar. Therefore, it lasts a little longer, I really believe
that we have more now than we did when we were on our
own. Both of us are living as cheap as one of us did when
were were not married. You see, I budget my money,
e8p«><'ially when going to the grocery store. I’ve learned
that one does not have to have steak for supper every
night.”
“Also, we don’t eat here at the apartment much, only on
weekends. We eat at the college most of the time.”
“Marge, I know you are working in the library. I
don’t mean to be inquisitive, but where do you get your
other money from?” t, ^
“Kelly is workinjf on the weekends at Dick s Hot Doj?
stand and is also a lab assistant at the college. Both of our
parents help us some, but we try to get along on our own.
We both worked in Hertford, Kelly’s home, this summer
and saved our money.” . ,,
“Richard, I would like to say that going to college
and being married does present some problems. Our big
gest is that of transportation. We have a terrible time try
ing to get places on time. That why we stay at the college
BO much. Another problem is that of ^leaving Marge when
1 am away with the basketball team.” , , , . -
“It certainly is! I have to go around looking for a
place to spend the night, since I do not like to stay by
myself.” , ,
“Wouldn’t you say. Marge, that another one of our
problems is that of being in extra activities and trying
keep house and study? You see, Richard, Im a member
of Phi Kappa Alpha Fraternity and the Science Club.
•‘And I’m a member of Phi Sigma Tau Soronty, the
Band, Stage and Script, Pine Knot Staff, and am a cheer
leader.” ^

A recent survey of the Student
Directory shows that out of the
College’s 46 faculty members
and college employees there are
10 Doctors and one Nurse, The
nurse will cure your cold If you
hustle over to the infirmary, but
the doctors are here to cure your
laziness if you stay too long or
sleep too late when they have op-
erations to perform.
ACC Is made up of 422 speci
mens who represent 158 towns
and cities in eight of the 48 states
and Cuba. South Carolina *holds
the majority of representative*
from outside North Carolina,
with a total of seven students.
Virginia follows closely with 6.
Florida and Indiana are tied
with 2. and Pennsylvania. Geor
gia, New York, and Cuba have
one each. There are 88 students
who live right here in Wilson.
While thumbing through the di
rectory, which U an annual pub
lication by Delta Sigma Sorority
and contains all the students’
names and addresses In alpha
betical order, one can obtain all
sorts of Information about the
student body as well as the facul
ty and employees of the college,
^me example of these are:
(1) ’The trend Is that the men
students tend to have longer
names than do the women. Wil
liam Maurice Daughtridge has
the longest name in the direc
tory, and Mary Lou Lee and Jo
Ann Moore have the shortest
names, with a difference of IS
letters between the longest and
the shortest.
(2) All the letters in the alpha
bet except I, Q. and X are rep
resented by the last name* of
students. There are 53 W’», 48
B’s, 40 A's, 1 V, and 1 Z.
Brothers and Kilters
(3) ’There are six sets of bro
thers and sisters on the campus.
'They are Barbara and Charles
Hutchins, Lois and Perry Moore,
Margaret and Marshall Newbern,
Callle and Elisha Proctor, Peg
gy and Don Shackelford, and Ve
ra and William Weathersby
There ts one set of brothers.
They are Don and Carroll Ken
nedy from Goldsboro. ’There are
four sets of sisters—Mnrjorle
and Melba Blinson, Suzanne and
Nancy Rebecca Gill, Joan and
Pat Lungston, and Eleanor and
Delano O’Nedl. Two married
coupl'fs are In the Directory,
’They are MarJOrle and Kelly By
rum, and Gloria and David Eth
eridge. Maxine and John were
too late to get in I
(4) On the campus, there are
some colorful names such as
Janet Grey Weeks, Bobby Odd
Webb, and Edythe Roue Fuller.
’There are also some names
which haven't been publicized
and they belong to people whom
most of the student body know.
For Instance, did you know that
Jim Burnette's first name wat
Horace? Ruth Lockamy's first
name is Vernle. Roger Phll-
yow's first handle is Aaron,
Charles Hutchins' is Leroy, Earl
Hughes’ 1* Bingham, and Pat
Burgess' Is Alice, Barbora Hut
chins' middle name is Sue, Jer
ry Wlllllams' Is Matthew, Guy
Wilson's Is Layton. Evelyn Yi-
onouils' is Mike, and Mamie Da
vis' is Martin.
Inventor
All this and more too I* avail
able to all students' at a small
price—25c. Delta Sigma took up
the publication of the Student Di
rectory about three years ago.
So far, there has been no com
plaint that a name was left out,
but like so many other student
projects it has Its flaws. The
typewriter that did the stencils
was quite an Inventor, coming up
with such new places as Raleigh,
Fayetteville, Kemly, Newiavllle
(believe It or not, Beulaville),
Hark Ave.; and such interesting
handless as Bebecca Anne
Moore, Edns Elaine Godwin,
and, the most dramatic of all.
Reggy Rose (any kin to Ragged
Robin?) Nlcholls. Even Iiolly-
wood couldn't beat that.
