Above the world is stretched the sky, no higher than the soul is high. The Heart can push the sea and land Farther away on either hand. The soul can split the sky in two And let the face of God shine through. But East and West will pinch the heart That cannot keep them pushed apart And he whose soul is flat, the sky will cave in on him, by and by. —Millay ESSAYIST Editor Bertha Barnes, ’49, of Goldsboro, winner of the Hunter Electric Sales Company Prize. “VOICE” EDITOR WINS ESSAY CONTEST The essay on “Radar” submitted by Miss Bertha Barnes, senior of Goldsboro, North Carolina was adjudged the best and the winner awarded a ten dollar cash prize by Mr. T.

Correction In listing the names of instruc tors’ who did “advanced study” last summer, the “Voice” for No vember, 1948, quite through mis take, failed to list the name of Miss Clara C.
