tEUIX tHI unows
The seniors and day students were
evidently ‘ ‘ too busy this week to
do anything.” So here are the three
classes who are “up and, doing” in
the way of gossip.
JTXNIOR
Who is this new Jimmy who has
suddenly come into Anne Mewborne’s
life? He must be exciting because
I hear Anne even ate her cereal be
fore her fruit at breakfast the other
morning . . . Were we surprised when
We heard Lib Norfleet say she fell
for the cutest drunks down at Caro
lina last week-end. And speaking of
snaking — Lib who did you have in
termission with last Friday night . . .
Who was the young man that stood
Virginia up last Tuesday night? . . .
At last we’ll have a chance to see
Henny’s Tyrone Power — Girls
he’s coming to Student Government
dance Saturday night, and his real
fiame is David Colvin . . . Jane Alice
seems to have had a very successful
week end — W. B. is making a spec
ial trip to Winston-Salem so he can
spend the last three days of school
^ith her . . . Louise Norris w'ent to
Durham on the early bus last Sunday
instead of waiting to go with the
rest of the Choral Ensemble — could
Winston have anything to do with a
few extra hours . . . Sara Harrison
Went home last week-end and from
sll reports she seemed to have a
big time . . . Could Jack Eandolph
have anything to do with Ella Walk
er’s great excitement over giong to
the V. M. I. finals? . . . Eve’s stitches
on her frothy white evening dress
in Mr. Owen’s Education class seem
to have started something, likewise
Sara’s wearing shorts to German
class ’tother day.
SOPHOMORE
2, 3, well you are up a tree
If you can’t get a man the third
time
You can always borrow one for a
dime
That’s our advice, Coley and Patty.
Well^ Eunice, you did have Suzanne
Even if you couldn’t get a man
Lee, you may not be able to sing
but
You must ,be a wow t oget a date
Anyhow.
Lyell, what’s this we hear about the
broken date?
He said he was a little late
Don’t bother Spenser to hate
You still have Shelton to date.
FKESHMAN
Davidson, Duke, Chapel Hill —'
which is it Martha? We are worn to
^ frazzle trying to keep up with
you! . . . Marion, why did you al-
®iost have a wreck when E. B. com
plimented you on your driving? —
Why? . . . How about the brother
With the stone blue eyes, Leila? Why
*^ot ask him to the S. G. dance and
give us all a break? ... Is your
heart in Greenville, S. C., Clemson,
Citadel or still in the old home town,
^arge? Or maybe you don’t have a
heart? . , . Too, too bad Mr. Cobb
Couldn’t come to the dance Adele.
®ut then when one is practically en
gaged, does one need to be enter
tained evenings. Mr. McClean’s
company shouldn’t be needed —
but is it? You ought to have your
thoughts to keep you warm —' poor
^r. Cummingsl , . . You looked all
®ver for Luke, Betty and when; you
^^■w him why did you run the other
You bashful thing. It it love?
• . . Gosh, gee! Says Dee. Your
brother certainly is cute, Mary Pant.
• • . Will it be next year, Avalon?
Senior Group
Entertains for
Bill Fulton
Dinner Party Honors
Bride-Elect
On last Tuesday evening seventeen
of our seniors entertained honoring
Bill IVlton, Salem bride-elect. The
dinner party was held in a private
dining-room at the Reynolds Grill.
This was the first party for Miss
Fulton since the recent announce
ment of her engagement to Mr. F. L.
Lily of Kingsport, Tenn.
The honoree’s place was marked
by a miniature bride and groom and
a pile of wedding presents individ
ual pieces of .silver in her pattern
and several pieces of Salem china.
The other places were marked by
attractive place cards.
The menu was as follows: Shrimp
cocktail, turkey and dressing, green
peas, mashed potatoes, hot rolls, sal
ad, iced tea, ice cream, and cake. The
wedding cake was decoratively iced
In green and white.

Miss Minter Gives
Graduating Recital
Kathryn Swain Assists
Pianist
Miss Mildred Minter, inanist, gave
her graduating recital, assisted by
Miss Kathryn Swain, soprano, on
Monday evening. May 15, in Me
morial Hall. Miss Minter, during
her years at Salem, has been a pupil
of Mrs. Francis Anscombe and Dean
Vardell.
Throughout the various numbers
of the evening Miss Minter gave
evidence of an excellent techni|ue
with which she combined a finely
developed sense of feeling. The
spirited “Clog Dance” by Howard
Hanson and the prankish “Polichin-
elle” by Villa-Lobos appealed espec
ially to the audience.
The Mozart Concerto in C Minor
was given amost interesting perform
ance, outstanding for its technical
fluency as well as a marked feeling
for its rhythm. Dean Vardell played
the orchestral accompaniment to this
number on the organ.
Miss Swain, pupil of Clifford Bair,
sang her well chosen groups with ex
cellent enunciation and breath con
trol. The Mozart aria “Porgi
Amor” was particularly well done
and enjoyed. Miss Swain was ably
accompanied at the piano by Miss
Virginia Thompson.
The complete program was as fol
lows:
Harmonious Blacksmith Handel
Sarabande and Gigue Bach
(From the Fifth French Suite)
Miss Minter
Bonjous, Suzon .— Delibes
Verschweigene Liebe Wolf
Mein Liebe is Grun .— Brahms
Miss Swaim
Mazurka in D Flat Major,

Miss Minter
Or will it be like Bill Fulton’s?
What does Bales think? . . . Well,
Sophomores (don’t slip up and for
get that we are Sophomres nnw), be
good thi^ summer, but not too good
so that yu can’t have a good time.
IF ANYONE IS
INTERESTED
If you can concentrate when all
around you
Vour classmates sleep in peaceful
unconcern;
If you can let no query confound
you,
Yet never speak when it is not your
turn;
If you can feign, with skill, a rapt
expres.sion
Of wide-eyed interest which you do
not feel.
And by your diligence give the im
pression
That Learning is your goal and your
ideal;
If you can read, with care, each
day’s assignment,
And never stoop to simply “skim-
m ng through;”
If ,\ou can stick to studious confine
ment.
And pleasures of the pharmacy
eschew;
If you can keep from ‘ ‘ doodling ”
on your pai>er
Instead of taking notes ou what is
said;
And if you can restrain a mental
caper
W'hen finally the hour has nearly
fled;
If you can face each day backed by
the knowledge
That all your work is finished and
jT l^€KTjr
FORE!
A golf tournament was held both
last week and this, but as yet the
winners have not been announced.
There will also be a tournament next
Thursday, Friday and Saturday in
spite of exams, and if you feel that
you can leave your cramming long
enough, you are cordially invited to
enter. Two rounds must be played,
but you may play as many as you
wish, recording only the best two.
If you feel you are not experienced
enough to enter, forget it, because
the scores range anywhere from 40
to 70. So come on down and join
in the fun.
well done.
With honors you will graduate from
college.
And doubtless be the envy of no
one.
Thus fortified by every h!gh and
fine tool
That education can bestow, you’ll
breeze
Into the world, and probablj’ some
day you’ll
Be asked to speak at literary teas.

neared its end this week with Caro
line O’Brien reaching the finals in
one division. The other contender
in the finals will be decided by a

Emerson. The winner of this match

their final game soon to decide the
clianipion of the B Division.
A lady in the Reynolds building,
expressing herself on the subject of
men’s summer hats, said the stiEE-
brimmed sailor straws “add to the
appearance, subtract from the stat
ure, multiply attention, and divide
opinion.’ ’
