Page 4 The Ram's Horn The Other Side For Men Only By Richard Hayes she looks good and smells she’s got you turned on and If nice, she knows It. Relax, you’ve nothing to worry about. Under neath that stuffed pocket of pen cils beats a heart of solid de sire. Desire for what? Lots of attractive dates? Better grades? To be whisked off to Hollywood for an exciting and brilliant ca reer. No! She craves body and soul for the sllni, elegant shape of something no gentleman should be without. She may have the wit of Cleo patra, the complexion of Twiggy, and the other things of Elizabeth Taylor, but she is an unfinished product until she is offered this— the greatest of status symbols, her hipest triumph, her great est ectasy. She knows and she’s ready. Being a lady, she cannot ask; it must be offered. Keep her hanging on as long as you can. Then wind her up by draw ing a long, smooth breath and blowing gently her way. By then her cool has completely disin tegrated. Her fate is in your hands. Certainly, you want to. And you know she’s thinking about it, too. You can give her a little cool smoke or the regular warm smoke; whichever she so desires. But its up to you, gentlemen. Are you going to just stand there and stare at pencils, or are you going to offer her a Tlparillo? Harvest Dance Don’t forget the Harvest Dance tonight in the Chadbourn gym at 8:00! The Legends of Burlington, North Carolina, will provide en tertainment for this second dance of the season. According to the various com mittees and the help of the Stu dent Government Association, the purpose of this dance will be to welcome in the fall social sea son. Roy Herring, Student Govern ment Steering Committee Vice- President, stated, "The Student Government feels confident with the attendance of the Back-to- School dance last month that this dance will be well attended and that it will be an enjoyable eve ning for everyone.” This Harvest Dance is open only to Southeastern students and their dates. LD. cards must be shown at the door. If we Ku.try, we cm Ket "tc* «8' c((tbna^ Elections - Popularity - Poll student Government elections will take place on October 30. The success of these elections depends on the students. Election of these officers is a great responsibility. Will this be a popularity poll or an election of responsible, dependable leaders? You, the voters must decide. When a ballot is marked, it is sincerely hoped that the voter has thougjit over the candidates qualifications carefully. Remember these elected officers will run all student activities for the rest of this school year. They will decide how your money is spent and what social activities will or will not take place. ITiese officers represent you in all decisions made! Elect those that you think will represent you best. After the ballots are counted it will be too late for grumbling that the wrong people were elected. The voter’s responsibility is in marking the ballot with good sound judgment; the elected official’s responsibility comes after the bal lots are counted. Voting is a privilege which our democratic society gives us. Men have died so toat all people can exercise this right. The upcoming election is our chance to exercise this privilege. If you are con sidering not voting remember that in many places people do not have this ri^t! A vote is also a voicing of opinion. When you vote, ask yourself if this candidate will best fulfill the wishes of the student body. Will the candidate represent and work for you or be the winner of a popularity poll? It is up to the voters! THINK BEFORE YOU MARK THAT BALLOT! YOU MAY REGRET IT LATER IF YOU DON’T! What Happens To Your Money Each quarter all full time students pay an activity fee of $6. This money is used by the Student Government Asso ciation to sponsor many activi ties at Southeastern. The total budget for this academic year is $9,000. Fine Arts has been allocated $2275 for this academic year. Artist Presentations and films costs $2075. The remaining $200 will be spent to pay ex penses for speakers who may be Invited to visit and to speak at Southeastern. Students will be able to dance to the tune of $2,000. One thousand dollars has been allocated for two large dances. Three small dances will be paid for with the balance of the $2,000. Publications expenses will re ceive $1950. The newspaper, college index, and student hand books make up publications. Our sports program will have $1550 to pay their expenses. Expenses related to basketball, soccar, intramural games, golf, and any trophies awarded will be paid out of this budget. Miscellaneous items including tape recordings, manuals, and a typewriter for the newspaper have been allocated $350; Coffee mixers $150. The steering com mittee reserved $425.00 that is allocable for. any purpose they may decide is worthwhile. Clubs at Southeastern have, been allocated $350. Any club may pecitlon the Student Govern ment Association for money. If a petition is approved by the Student Government Association funds will be made available for the club from the $425 on reserve. Letter To The Editor Praise At SCC ? Never! As usual the new school year started off with a bang-full of com plaints! This newspaper is not against complaints but it would be nice to see some letters to the editor concerning praise. Last year in one letter it was stated that there was nothing to be proud of at Southeastern. Not one person came out against this opinion. If students would stop complaining long enougji to take a good look around them, a number of things to praise could be found. Evan Philip Comer, our new President, is indeed an exceptional man. He cares about the students! Observe him fellow students and this will soon be evident to yoiu And then there is the faculty. Our faculty is truly second to none as far as their relationship to the students is concerned. At what other college would you receive the personal attention, interest, and concern our faculty displays? Very fewJ!! Even the staff projects a spirit of friendliness to the students. Rarely does a student need help and not receive it at Southeastern. I 1 diej ofoooy -Hiiwi... btMUt* I Vi Ojficixf C«Mpr«micei) t " Out. Cm a pfople. (Sf a/e aoou"' 'cot.. K Dear Editor, Congratulations on the fine job you and your staff did on the September issue of the Rams’ Horn, I read every article and think that you have covered every aspect of the college very well, I know what a difficult job it is to put a paper together and am really pleased with the work you did. Please extend my congratula tions to the staff, I am looking forward to receiving the next issue. Sincerely, Pam Buckler Smokers Beware I How many times have you seen on a billboard or heard on the radio and TV that ciga rettes are low in nicotine and will not Irritate the throat? Yet on every pack of cigarettes bou^t there is a warning that smoking may be hazardous to your neaim. Even with this fact known, ad vertisers still buy time on TV, radio, and other news media as a means of selling their brand of cigarettes. Well known per sonalities will smile and say, "I smoke this brand of ciga rettes, why don’t you?” Viewers, not hewing the warn ing, will flock to the stores and buy these cigarettes. They do not take time to stop and think about the fact that these cigarettes are harmful and may cause throat irritation. Also cigarettes add to the possibili ty of cancer and heart attacks. Before we finish that last puff on a cigarette, let’s ask our selves this Question: How much damage will this cigarette do to my system? Why can’t I stop smoking? All cigarette smokers must be the ones who answer this ques tion! Recently the Student Government Association sponsored a coffee mixer. Old man complaint began to flow immediately. Did any of you think of the time and effort put forth by those who made and served the refreshments? NO! The oeonle who went were too busy complaining! Not one word of praise did these ears hear from the students but complaints were showerea on the wreary ears. The Student Government Association will need a lot of help in the upcoming elections. Will they receive it? All indications are that they will receive little help but a lot of con«)laints. Is the Student Government Association working hard for nothing? Are they doomed to a series of complaints? Maybe! Only time wUl tell. Many students have complained about the inconveniences that the workman cause. Did they stop to think about what a beautiful campus we’ll have?OH, NO! that would be asking too much of them. That dirty word praise would have to be used. Complaints seem to be "In” at Southeastern. Maybe our English instructors should have everyone write a paper on the word praise. It seems that no one knows what it means. It has Just occured to this mind that many of you will say this is an article of complaint. On tiie contrary, this is praise of your wonderful knowledge of the meaning of the word complaint. South eastern could easily win the national award for "We Know What The Word Con^laint Means Because We Do It All Of The Time.” Would Southeastern like to enter the race for this reward? It is certain that plenty of support would be given in this endeavor. PRAISE! PRAISE! the word cries out in agony. Doesn’t anyone know what I mean cries the word praise from the hollow pages of the old unused dictionary. h amsnarn Editor-In-Chief . . .
