PAGE FOUR MAROON AND GOLD Wednesday, January 25, 1950 Many Elon Students Have Part-T ime Jobs ELON'S NEW VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONS By FREDDIE WILLIAMSON Many of the Elon studeata take time from their daily studies lo work at jobs, both on and off the campus. Aithough the college does not operate an official em ployment service, students are able to secure jobs for which they are paid by the college. Records in the business office reveal that there are now fifty- five students on the college pay roll and paid through that of fice. However, this is not the ex act number of students working on the campus, for there are sev eral others who are paid through special depi\tmental allowances or other arrangements. To name all the employees and their duties would produce a long and cumbersome report. Cate gorically, however, the various jobs fall into such classes as main tenance, hostesses, switchboard operators, laboratory instructors, assistants to professors, chapel checkers, secretary, dining hall personnel, library assistants and construction. Duties of various groups are apparent. Even the day students may be seen work ing, some typing, others painting and still others grading papers. With a limited number of job 'possibilities on campus, many students have accepted part-time jobs in Burlington and surround ing towns. It is estimated that well over fifty percent of the day students have jobs afternoons and weekends, and there are some dormitory students thus employ ed. It may well be pointed out that, whereas employment time deviation from studies for many students, the opposite is true for some who have full-time jobs which they have Retained in spite of their desire for an edu cation. School for them is the part-time job. It is apparent to most every one that the student who goes to school and works part-time be longs to the class which exerts ex tra efforts to excel, both at his job and his class work.

E. Butler, business manager of the college. Mr. Butler stated that the added telephones were ordered several weeks ago and will be installed as soon as the com pany has equipment to fill the order. The phones will prob ably be located in North and South dormitories, the Vet’s Court and the Student Union.

Dressed in old clothes and armed with mops, brooms and rags, some twenty members of the thespianic group attacked the confusion of the store room, the paint spatters on the seats and the accumulation of dust. The collation of the evening was a chile concoction, prepared by the Ed Engles, but much ham was in evidence as divers mem- and hats which were exhumed ticulated, and just plain mugged in a wierd collection of garments and hats which were exhumed from the costume closet . Order was restored (if it ever existed) to the store room, the paint was washed off the seats, and, if the pile' of junk which now reposes in the hall of the Mooney Building is ever moved, the job may be considered finish ed. The Home Economics Depart-, ment was host to the faculty, the college girls and a few outside guests at a musical tea in Society Hall from 3 until 5 o’clock on Wednesday afternoon, January 18th. The tea, which was lovely in every detail, was indicative of the high calibre of work being done by the department this year. The guests, upon arrival, were presented to the receiving line by Misses Mary Elizabeth King and Martha Ellen Johnson. In the receiving line were Mrs. Lucy Everett and Misses Gay- nelle Sutton, Beth Raines and Flora Gilbert, all students of the department, Miss Louise Ramsey, I head of the Home Economics pro gram, and Mrs. George Colclough, who assisted with the program. Mrs. Leon E. Smith, Sr., poured assisted by Miss Ellen Doris Huey. Others assisting in the entertain ing were Misses Beverly Simpson, Joan McIntyre, Phyllis Tucker, Jane Peterson, Melva Foster, Do lores Evans, ^onja Albert and Della Crutchfield and Mrs. Elea nor Abell. An outstanding feature of the occasion was the musical program under the direction of Fred Sahl- man, of the Music Department. Charles Lyman sang “The Two Grenadiers,” by Schumann; Mr. Sahlman rendered “The Naila Waltz,” piano arrangement by Dohnanyi; Miss Dolores Evans sang “My Heart At Thy Sweet Voice,” by Saint-Saens; and Mr. Sahlman closed the program by playing three Gershwyn preludes. COAL SHORTAGE IS ALLEVIATED The coal shortage, which had th;rfeatened Elon College with chill dormitories and class rooms and perhaps a lack of nec essary power, was realized at least temporarily last week, when the college was the proud recipient of one carload of the precious black fuel. ' The coal bins over at the power plant were virtually empty when the shipment ar- ‘ rived, but college administra tive 'officials stated that the one carload had staved off a crisis by slightly over one week and that prospects were good for an additional supply East Dorm Takes Volley Ball Title , The boys from East Dorm re tained their campus volley ball championship when they defeated the ITK aggregation in the play off battle. The two rivals had clinched the titles in their respec tive leagues and met in a special game to decide the final honors. East clinched the American League crown in regular season play, while ITK had to defeat South in another play-off for the National League lead. The South team defeated Sigma Phi Beta for third place in the campus standings. act as managers for the various sports, but it provides for an Ath letic Council to be composed of two representatives from West Dormitory, one from Ladies’ Hall, sive wins over Goldsboro High McCrary Jay-Vees, Catawba Jay- Vees, Burtner’s semi-pros and a combined Mebane-Graham High squad.

BARTER PLAYERS (Continued From Page One) Actually, however, the princi pal character in this play never appears at all. He is the dead brotiier, Martin, around whom the lives and ill fortunes of all the others have revolved in one way or another. j Priestley, who has aJways been deeply interested in various phi-! losophic time conceptions, provid-! es a novel and unusual twist for' the ending of the play. It leaves the audience wondering if they ■ really have seen what they have seen. ■ “Dangerous Corner” is the fifth touring production included in the Barter Theatre’s current win ter schedule. Probably one of the foremost exponents of decentral ized theatre in the country, Rob ert Porterfield always assembles an experienced and talented cast, for each of his touring compan- i ies. The memory of the excellent: production of “Hamlet” presented by the Barter Theatre touring' players last year is still fresh. hAeet, EAT and Play Checkers at THE CAMPUS SHOP Milkshakes, Ice Cream, Sandwiches, Patent Medicines “If ive make ya sick, we’ve got the stuff to cure ya!” A welcome Awaits You At ACME DRUG, Inc.
