ALL THE COMFORTS of home and a college

Many reports have been in the
previous editions of the Clarion
about new personel on the camp
us. Two dedicated people have
been erroneously overlooked.
“Mamma” Pickens and “Boss
Man” Morrow, who through a
sense of responsibility, love of
Brevard College, or through a
complete expression of idiocy
have taken the job of being
“mamma’s” to a group of eight
freshmen students that are
housed in the Cantrell House.
Actually, Bob “Mamma” Pick
ens and Dave “Boss Man” Mor
row seem to be well pleased with
their job. They remarked that
the group of men students are
“usually” well behaved, have
good study habits, and are just
a group of “good guys.”
The men over in Cantrell, al
though a little crowded, have
life going pretty good for them.
Instead of having desks in their
bedroms, the men have two
study rooms. One reason for
^his is that the eight freshmen
live four in each bedroom. They
have a television room, outside
fire grill, and both bathtubs and
showers. They will be getting a
pay telephone and a campus
phone very shortly. By the time
this article is printed they
should have possession of a re
frigerator. “Mamma” and “Boss
Man” collect ten cents a day
from everyone to buy supplies
for a party when the refrigera
tor arrives. The group also have
permission to have chaperoned
parties with just the men and
their dates.
When asked about life at Can
trell, the usual reply was very
favorable. Many expressed that
the privacy and the study habits
were distinct advantages over
what they thought dorm life
would be like. As Dave Morrow
so aptly put it, “I prefer Can
trell over the dorm because of
(he greater degree of freedom,
but we must remember that
with this freedom comes a
greater responsibility.”
As in most cases, however, all
is not just “peaches and
cream.” Cantrell is on the de
ls in just the right location for
it to be very inconvenient at
times. For example, men stu
dents at Greene or Taylor can
get up in the morning fifteen
minutes before class, and if they
hurry may be able to grab a
quick bite of breakfast. Can
trell boys have to leave the
“Shack” well in advance of class
in order to be on time. Another
inconvenience cited is the walk
:n wet weather. There was only
one person who said the place
was overcrowded, but this was
counteracted by a statement of
another who said that he believ
ed he would prefer three room
mates to one. A complaint also
brought out was the fact that if
a student had a problem vnth
his subject, and no one else in
Cantrell House had that sub
ject, then the poor student who
had the problem usually kept it
until the next class. “It would
be nice just to be able to go
to a room down the hall to get
help,” said Larry.
This reporter observed during
the interviews that there seem
ed to be a sense of congeniality
among the students. Although
it can be called overcrowded,
this has not caused a very bad
problem. Pickens and Morrow
expressed their delight with the
way the men acted and remark
ed that their study life was ex
cellent. I heard this phrase more
than once during my interview.
‘Ah. it’s a long walk, but it’s
worth the hike, so why worry
about it?”
Although there are small in-

Riegel
Speaks
Phi Theta Kappa began the
season of Friday at Four on Fri
day, September 24, with a talk
hy Dr. Roberta Riegel.
Dr. Riegel’s subject was “The
Language of the Mountaineers.”
She discussed examples of arch
aic English still spoken by the
people in i.‘;olated regions of the
mountains. She ended her talk
by giving three short dialogues
in the dialect of the hill people.
“The Language of the Moun
taineer” was the first in a series
of programs on mountain cul
ture. The next Friday at Four
will be a program on “Folk Nar.
ratives” to be given by Mr. Artus
Moser on October 8.
