PAGE TWO the clarion Salute Given To Stevenson SSlf Mr. Stevenson is hig'hly ^ praised for his outstanding ^ work as college dean, for he \ has thoroughly identified ^ himself with Bfevard Col lege.

Mem bers of Kappa Chi will set a spirit ual example for the entire campus therefore, this organization be comes a challenge to all members. E A Spirit Prevails Faculty Accomplishments ..0 As you walk across the college campus, what you most? Is it the buildings? The students? The mad rush L classes change? No it is the spirit that hovers over the school like a cloud and surrounds all types of life on the college campus. You can find this spirit in organizations, in classes, and even in the cafeteria and residence halls. There is no greater feeling than to sit in an assembly with students gathering for one purpose, to combine their spirit and interests for the betterment of the school. There is a feeling of unity as the school song is sung. If this feeling of school spirit and unity can prevail, and the students support their teams, organizatio^ns, and school Brevard will continue to take its place leading the way for others to follow. Let’s each support our school and voice our enthusiasm. Calendar Of Events Horace Turner of Gastonia, North Carolina, has been elected as campus social chairman. His ca pable leadership has certainly qualified him for this job. This position is one requiring much of one’s time to plan and supervise campus social activities. Horace al ready has concrete plans for the year’s social events. There will be planned activities for every week end and other occasions through out the year. His plans for October are: Oct. 19 — Hike to Mt. Pisgah (1:00) — Meet at barn. Oct. 19—^Talent Show (8:00 p. m.) in new auditorium.

W. Sigmon QiiiiJiiiiniiiiiMtMi mill Members of the Brevard College Faculty were variously employed this summer in positions of work, travel, and play.

Other faculty members, as Mrs. [Dixon aptly put it, “went places and did things.” Mrs. Dixon her- i self visited many parts of North I Carolina, the Pacific coast, Canada, I and other parts of the Northwest. 1 ' Also visiting Canada was Miss I Hayes who later spent some time : I with her brother in Detroit. Dr. : j Loomis seems to have thoroughly | t enjoyed being back on the farm 1 i in the Ozarks, Missouri, that is. i ■Both Atlanta and Washington, D. ' C. played host to Miss Smith. | j At least four members of the i I faculty were to be found with the ! halls of ivy working on their Mas-; ters Degree. To be congratulated are Mr. McFadden, who obtained his degree in English and Dra matics, from UNC, and Mr. Halli burton for his second Masters v/hich is a Master of Education. Al so working on their Masters were Mrs. Sigmon at the University of North Carolina and Miss Munroe at the University of Tennessee. Mr. Harvin, who survived an op eration this summer, wishes to re port that he has changed his resi dence. Perhaps one of the most un usual positions held by one of the faculty this summer was that of Mr. Reed, who played trumpet with a small orchestra. Whatever mode of employment held, we sincerely hope that all the faculty members enjoyed the summer months and are as happy as we are to be back.
