THE VOICE
January, 1960
Joyner Hall
During the first ^^uarter, the
Joyner Hall Dormitory Associa
tion, under the leadership of our
dormitory directress, Mrs. Hu
bert, was organized as follows:
Laura Latham' — Pres.
Gladys Hall — V. Pres.
Gertina Keyes — Secretary
Alma Pettiford — Assistant Sec.
Fannie R. Tyson ■— Treasurer
Mable Dick —Parliamentarian
The following committees were
appointed: Executive, Program
Social, Sick, and Hospitality. Rep
resentatives for the Voice Staff
and Student Council were ap
pointed also.
Members of these committees
have worked exceedingly hard to
bring outstanding reports to each
meeting. Interested persons of
various committees attended a
charm school at E. E . Smith High
School, and gave an interesting re
port and demonstration at the next
dormitory meeting. |
For our Thanksgiving project,
we gave two baskets of food to a
needy family, which was only the
beginning of our plans for the
year.
As we return from the holidays,
we wish to express to each of you
a Happy New Year.

A Little Boy's Essay
On Anatomy
“Your head is kind of round and
hard, and your brains are in it and
your hair on it. Your face is the
front of your head where you eat
and make faces. Your neck is what
keeps your head out of your collar.
It’s hard to keep clean. Your
shoulders are sort of shells where
you hook your suspenders on
them.
“Your stummick is something
that if you do not eat often enough
it hurts, and spinach don’t help
none. Your spine is a long bone in
your hack that keeps you from
folding up. Your back is always
behind you no matter how quick
you turn around. Your arms you
got to have to pitch with and so
.you can reach the butter. Your
fingers stick out of your hands so
you can throw a curve and add up
rithmatick. Your legs is what if
you have .got two of, ,vou cannot
get to first base. Your feet are
what you run on, your toes are
what always get stubbed. And
that’s all there is of you, except
what’s inside, and 1 never saw it.”
AKA KAPERS
Delta Alpha Chapter of Alpha
Kappa Alpha Sorority has done it
again. It has gotten off to a mag
nificent start. To begin the year
eight of the sorors assisted with
the Freshman Orientation program
with Soror Eva Cordon, Chairman
of the General Orientation Com
mittee.
Later, during the qi.iarter, eleven
new sorors joined the bonds of
sisterhood: namei.v, Mary McMil
lan, Dorothy Usher, Barbara Han
kins, Ve’rna Street, Lula Harper,
Dorothy Archer, Eva Cordon, Vir
gie Daniels, Gertina Keys, Bernice
Pa.v and Eva Ingram. They have
dedicated themselves to always
uphold the traditions of the or
ganization.
Scholastically, added to the list
of fortunate individuals to make
“Who’’:, Who in American Colleges
and Universities” were Sorors Eva
Cordon and Nannie Crosby.
Four of the Alpha Kappa Alpha
Sorors ventured to the realms of
student teaching. They are: Eve
lyn Boone. Lillie Allen, Hilda
Davis and Judith Nixon. All of the
other sorors felt confident that the
standards of AKA were em-
1 I'dded in the minds of these stu
dent teachers as they went into
the various schools.
As second quarter gets under
way, the organization begins to
ri.se toward developing the chap
ter’s program for the year.
As the pages of time move on-
waid, so will Alpha Kappa Alpha
find its place in the highest peak
of society.
Zeta Zest
To spread sisterhood on this
campus, to promote a thirst for

Martha Greene for attending the
state Zeta’s meeting held at Bar
ber Scotia College Concord, North
Carolina on December 5, 1959. our
newest sorors, Mary McEachern
and Fannie Tyson.
Now that sorors Carolyn Har
rington, Mellie Johnson, Mazie
McMillan, Juanita Walker, Mar
tha Greene, Christine Williams
and Alma Murphy have success
fully completed their student

tirrie doing Zeta work during an
other eventful year. The Zetas are

Ball scheduled for March 15, 1960.
Fellow students, the Zetas would
like to wish for each of you a
happy New Year.

Thinking
Someone once said, “If you think
you think, ask yourself what is the
greatest thought you ever thought,
then listen to the silence.”
One can know much and think
little. Ancient Greece produced
many who knew little and thought
a great deal. Modern life produces
a lot of people who know it all
and think nothing about it. A
penny for the average person’s
thoughts is the market price.
Yet, thinking is not a lost art.
Some still cultivate it. Most of us
have all the necessary equipment
except the will to do it.
But thinking requires develop
ment by exercise just like the mus
cles. Thinking is not a gift of the
gods — but the reward of endeav
or.
Some people study all their life,
and at their death they have learn
ed everything except to think.
