The art department is a little publi
cized one here on campus, but it is,
nevertheless, a very active one. The
instructor. Mis Lila Newman, has been
at Elon for eighteen years. She is an
A. B. and Art graduate of Elon Col
lege and has attended Columbia Uni
versity and Harvard. Miss Newman
has an extensive background in art
work and is well qualified to instruct
in her field.
The art courses offered include
painting in oil, watercolors, drawing,
china painting, commercial and in
dustrial arts. The students now are
working on still life studies in water
colors. Some of the class is engeged in
v/orking out s'till life studies in water
colors. Some are painting china and
one class is engaged in working out
industrial problems for teaching gram
mar schools. I
The department registered over a
hunderd students this past year, a
number of whom are from the county
schools; but the majority are col
lege students. The pupils are marked
informally, but the lessons are fol
lowed strictly by schedule.
Plans for this year include field
trips to art departments in other col
leges and exhibits if transportation
permits. Members of the department
also plan to enter exhibits of their
own work in the state contest in April.
In past years quite a number of the
students in this field have attained
Miss Newman is anxious to have all
students who are interested in art
come to the art room on the third
floor of Alamance and talk with her.
FRESHMEN INTRODUCED
TO CAMPUS LIFE
The Freshmen Orientation week
was observed from Tuesday,, Septem
ber 7 up until classes began Friday,
September 10. The activities be
gan Tuesday night in Whitley audi
torium with a prelude by Professor
Bartley. Edward Butler, president of
the student body gave his welcome
address to the class of ’47 followed
by the presentation of the student
officers. Coach Pierce outlined the
Physical Education program to be
carried out. Then Dr. L. E. Smith
gave his opening address of the year.
Mrs. Kraft, the new dean of women,
was presented to the students by
Dean Messick.
On Wednesday, registration for the
class began. That night there was
a party sponsored by the S. C. A. in
order that the new students might get
better acquainted with each other and
the upperclassmen. It was very suc
cessful. Thursday, the student of
ficers conducted a tour of the cam
pus, at which time the students were
shown the buildings and classrooms.
The handbook with its rules and reg
ulations were exlpained to them.
The week reached its conclusion
with a movie of past events at Elon
shown in Whitley auditorium.

Sports News
During war years our AthleticT De
partment must necessarily go through
many changes. It is affected more
this fall than ever before.. The army
came and claimed all of Coach J.. J..
Pearce’s time; but in his place there
will be Prof. L. D. Adcox to direct
Boys’ Physical Education, and Mrs.
D. D. Vickery to be the head of the
Girls’ Physical Education Depart-
m.ent.
Last year intra-fural Councils were
begun among the boys and the girls.
Officers were elected and represen
tatives from each dormintory, fra
ternity and sorority were elected to
these two councils. These two groups
arranged the intramural program and
governed all sports’ activities through
out the school year if the demands
for intramural sports are high en
ough.
Having no gym is the largest prob
lem of Prof. Adcox and Mrs. Vickrey.
Prof. Adcox plans to give his boys
the physical fitness rating test which
is used by the army.. This will be
given now and repeated again at a
later date, and in this way, Improve
ment in development and coordina
tion will be shown. The boys will be
given calisthenics, and taught tumb
ling and other forms of gymnastics.
The obstacle course will probably be
open for the boys to run during their
physical education hour. The boys’
program will include tag football
basketball, soccer, tennis, volley ball,
track and softball. On some of the
rainy days, lectures will be given,
and movies concerning the jjersonal
habits and hygiene of college students
will be shown.
Mrs. Vickery, along with her as
sistants, Mary Warren and Edna Rum-
ley, will work out a program based
on individual poise and coordination.
It will be of a creative type with an
introduction to social, modern, tnd
classical dances. Sports and games
will be introduced, but not empha
sized. An intramural program will be
worked out if possible.
Military drill will be given to the
girls; the boys will not have drill but
will be given military commands in
their calisthenics.
The army cadets have full program
in working toward physical fitness.
New things are seen at Elon as the
boys run the obstacle course, the
Burma Road, and do other things
which are included in their daily pro
gram, Recently the cadets have been
allowed to form teams and compete
with other branches of the armed
forces. Two weeks ago, track, tennis,
and softball teams went to High Point
to play against the cadets at High
Point College. Our boys came out on
top. Today the Elon Cadets played
hosts to the High Point Cadets. They
had games of softball .volleyball, and
tennis teams. The games began
around 2:30 p. m. Spectators were
permitted to watch the out-of-door
games. So now the “New Elon” meets
the “New High Point” on our old
stomping grounds. It won’t be too
different from old times, and the
Elon players can certainly be as
sured that we will be backing them
at least, until our boys come march
ing home again.
