SO GOES SALEMITE
“Watch your heads—down comes
some scenery. Any pins around?
My costume has a split. Is the
make-up finished? Curtain time!”
The show goes on. A delighted audi
ence claps approval; children’s
faces lighten with enchantment. No
one would even suspect that the
“boss” of the performance was not
present—Mr. Bair had been unex
pectedly called out of t6wn just
before the scheduled performance
of “Hansel and Gretel.” The show
must go on regardless, and it did
go on. A Student production staff
immediately took over the com
plete responsibility and did a mar
velous job of managing the opera.
A spirit of co-operation and team
work was shown by staff, cast, cho
rus, and orchestra, alike, and all
worked together for a successful
performance. As stage manager,
Ella Lou Taylor showed her amaz
ing capacity to keep everything un
der control, work ceaselessly, and
then sing in two of the perform
ances—and never a flinch. She
managed the direction most capa
bly and rose with every ounce of
her vitality to see that the opera
was a success.
Annie Hyman Bunn and Lindy
Stokes also did marvelous work on
the stage management, often going
without meals, having late bus rides
back to school, and showing com
plete proficiency at both rehearsals
and performances. Bunny and
Lindy proved veterans in their dif
ficult tasks. The costumes were all
handled by Marion Gary and the
properties by Jane Garrou, both of
whom assumed their responsibility
and did grand work with the many
chorus boys and girls and with the
numerous props.' Excellent make-up
was provided by members of the
Freshman Dramatic Club, supervised
by Mrs. Bruce Williams. Jacque
Dash superintended the make-up—
proper pasting of beards, putting
that horrible wart on the witch’s
nose, making-up the many chorus
foli, and the precious wrinkles on
the forehead of the little sand u
The make-up was really a profes
sional job, and much praise is due
to Jacque and her staff of girls,
which included Mary Miller, Char
lotte Rifkin, Nancy Kenny, Jane
Angus, Bet Hancock and many
others. ,
In an opera performance it is
generally the cast, conductor, or
orchestra which receives the ap
plause and prais^ But the girls
behind the scene really do the hard
work and see that the prodnctira
goes on, that the stage business is
all in working order. Particularly
in this case do these workers de
serve especialy admiration. They as
sumed their responsibilities and all
worked together with co-operation
and team work, all the more so
after Mr. Bair had left. So to Ella
Lou. Lindy, Bunny, Jane, Marian,
Jacque, and all the others who
proved equal to their tasks—our
sincerest thanks for carrying S'a-
lem’s colors well. We are proud of
you all.
She was born in the year of Lord
only knows.
It’s no longer a matter of walk
ing to reduce—it’s reduced walk
ing.

The basketball tournament will
start Tuesday night with a game
between the Freshmen and Seniors.
The tournament will follow the
same arrangement as in hockey sea
son. Every class will play every
other class and if enough enthus
iasm for the sport still prevails, two
teams made up of the best of all
the players -v^ill be selected to play
a final game.
Managers from each class have
been chosen to get their classes to
practice and it will be the problem
of the girls who practice to select
their team.
The student-faculty game served
to show what kind of players w^e
. have. T'he Freshmen seem to have
the greatest quantity of good play
ers with Axiah Shore, Lois Wooten,
Peggy Witherington, and Mac Mc
Lendon sparking their team. Their
excellent shooting and passing will
make them a hard opponent to de
feat. The Sophomores have good
material in Edith Stovall, Joyce
Wooten. Byrd, Baynes and several
others. The fact that they haven’t
practiced or played together will
serve as an obstacle toward their
winning. Betty Moore, Katherine
McGeachy, Mary Ellen Carrig, and
Katherine Manning are some of the
juniors that have practice^ and
with a little more work should have
as good a one this year but Bar
bara Whittier and Betty Vander
bilt have bee ntheir only represen
tation at practice.
This basketball tournament gives
us a chance to redeem ourselves for
the failure of the badminton tour
nament. It is also much more in
teresting game to watch so every
body please practice and have some
strong competition.

In such surroundings eating became

Festivities halted at the ninth

a “shore ’nuff darky wedding” to
the tune of accordion music and
tap dancing. One guess was as
good as the next as to who those
charcoal personages were.
At the end of the evening, Mary
Margaret Struven -came from her

honor of being the Carnival Queen.
At the same time, the Stee Gee car

atically, “After you read it you
can judge it for yourself.”
In comparing the United States
of America and the United States
of Brazil Dr. Travares said that
we have more political democracy
and his own country has more social
democracy. In Brazil there is less
racial intolerance than any other
country in the world. For this rea
son Brazil’s ratio of imigrants has
grown considerably in the last sixty
years. Sorry we can’t tell you of the
history of his country, of Bonofacio,
Brazil’s Geo. WJarshington, of the
airmindedriess of his countrymen,
of his hobbies, tennis and swimming
which also happens to be the favor
ite national pastimes, and of the

he does very slowly—but the editor
says we can have only 400 words!
