They’re telling this one about a salesman passing through a small town who had several hours to while away. Seeing one of the townspeople, he asked: “Any picture show in town, my friend?” “Nope, not a one, stranger.” “Well, is there a pool room or bowling alley?” “Nope.” “What form of amusement do you have here?” “Well, come on down to the drug store,” the man said. “There’s a freshman home from college.” SIX FULL HOURS (Tune: Sixteen Tons) Some people say a teacher is made out of steel; Their mind can think but their body can’t feel. Iron and steel and hickory tea. Frowns and gripes from 8:40 to 3. You teach six full hours, and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. You pay your dues in this and that, Then for 19 days your billfold’s flat. I was born one morning when it was cloudy and cool; I picked up my register and head ed for school; I wrote 44 names on the home room roll. And the principal said, “Well, bless my soul.” I got 44 kids and 32 seats; Twenty-eight are talking while 16 sleep. I can hardly get ’em all through the door, And if I don’t watch out they’ll send me more. The last bell rings and I start for the door; My head’s ringing and my feet are sore; I taught six full hours, and my day made, But I still have 100 papers to grade. You teach six full hours and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. I’ll go to St. Peter, but I can’t stay, I gotta come back for the PTA. —North Carolina Journal Young Women^s Christian Association 1 ■ ■, “The man who rows the boat generally doesn’t have time to rock it.” First grade teacher: one who knows how to make little things count.” “The teacher is like the candle which lights others while consum ing itself.” College Marshals - ■ wm-.i This group ushers for all school sponsored activities Young Women's Christian Association Continues Its Program of Activities Throughout the school term the Young Women’s Christian Association has busied itself with a program designed to em brace not only campus and community work, but also work of a much wider scope. Now, as the end of the school year approaches, the YWCA finds itself still busy with the work of completing the program of activi ties which it set as its goal at the beginning of the term. From time to time the entire group is called upon to give -aid in shaping the policies of the As sociation, but most of the actual work is done through the various committees. Many of the commit tees have done outstanding work in their efforts to realize the ob jectives of the total YWCA pro gram. The project which was be gun early in the year by the Com munity Committee, under the lead ership of Lucille Young Parker, is being continued with a show of greater enthusiasm, in that in ad dition to collecting old newspap ers, the Y members are now rolling so as to facilitate their handling for benefit of the Fuller School. The Program Committee also continues its work through discus sions of topics pertinent to the life of college students. One of the more popular discussions has cen tered around the topic of “Boy- Girl Relationships,” a topic on which, by request, an open forum will be held before the end of the school term. Another topic in the planning stage for discussion centers around the issue of “Desegregation.” Dis cussions are a means of giving stu dents a chance to do some real thinking on the problems of un derstanding themselves as persons, and their relationships with other persons both specifically and gen erally. Naomi Graham heads the Program Committee. This year the YWCA is joining with all other campus organiza tions in sponsoring the World Uni versity Service Fund Drive. In terest in this project was stimulat ed through visits to our campus by Miss Gurdip Singh from India, and Miss Medeori Sasoki from Ja pan. Through their chapel talks the fact was made plain that there is still great need for aid among students in other parts of the world, and with strained world conditions creeping nearer to the rf breaking point, it becomes more THESE ENERGETIC Y.W.C.A. members are working on one of their projects| The proceeds from this apparent that “Their Future is Our paper collection project will go to the Fuller School for Exceptional Children. Future.” w % Delores Miller and Barbara Burke, co-chairmen of the World Affairs Committee, are responsible for any success of the appeal to every student to give to this drive in order to help insure our own future against a world of chaos. Not only does the YWCA seek to have the Christian principle im- dergird its total program, but it also devotes a proportionate part of its time to a program of religi ous activities as such. This is done through such activities as observ ing Day of Prayer, well planned worship services at both cabinet an dgeneral meetings, and spon soring services during the Lenten season. This year the YWCA is sponsor ing the tenth annual Lenten pro gram, with many other campus or ganizations taking an active part in preparing the services. The re sponsibility for the over-all plan ning of the religious phase of the work rests with Norma Jean John son, chairman of the Worship Committee. The latter part of the school year brings thoughts of conferences. The State Conference held at Ben nett College was attended by Vel ma Lavender, Delores Miller, Nor ma Jean Johnson, Betty Payne, Margaret Canady, and E. Louise Murphy, the advisor. Delores Mil ler was elected co-chairman of the Planning Committee which has the duty of making plans for next year’s conference. At this Ben nett conference, Miss Frances Wil liams, a former YWCA secretary, stimulated the thinking of the more than 50 delegates through her dis cussions which centered around the general topic: “The Relation of Our Struggle for Human Dig nity to the World Struggle for Freedom.” The Regional Confer ence which will be held in Jime at Berea College, in Kentucky, will have the challenging theme: “Christian Students and Our Rev olutionary World.” Preparations are being made to send represen tatives to this very important con ference. All of the work of the YWCA is not on the serious side, since rec reation has been a part of each general meeting where prizes have been awarded for skill at playing (Continued on Page Nine)
