Latin Clubbers Give Party The Latin Club had a party Wed nesday night, January 10, in Dr. Smith’s living room. Both Bingo and Anagrams were played in Latin. An Intelligence test, given to the members by the president, showed most interesting results. Lucille Newman confessed having seen the cow jump over the moon. A de licious hot beverage and cookies were served. Beuuf Atltleiic (Cont. from page thret) they will present .sharp competition with last year’s class team mem bers for a position on this year’s team. Little and Harris will be likely choices for guards on the junior team, but they won’t have much work to do if forward, Withor- ington, continues to drag down balls from the air and toss them into the basket like she has consistently done in the past. Basketball is a major sport at Salem, and this year the season ought to be even more successful with everyone looking forward to the banquet that will be held at the end of the season.

Mrs. Comriid Tells About Aiistrolia If you have lived all your life ] thinking that Australia is nothing | but kangaroos and eucalyptus trees, ' then go by Miss lli.xson's office and ■ talk with Joan ('onrad. Joan, who replaced Daphne Keich as secretary to Miss Hixson before (Miristnias, is from Melbourne, Australia. She has been in the LJnited States since last spring when she came to Los Angeles to join her husband, Forrest Conrad of Winston-Salem. ■ “The greatest difference in life here,” Joan says, “is in the people. I'eople are so i'riendly. Ifight from the first everyone took me in, and ; people don’t 'io that in Atjstralia. There, you have to work your way slowly ijito friendships.” Our sense of humor at first was a litle baffling to Joan who “could not see anything funny even when she knew people were joking.” She is getting used to tjjat, though, as well as to our unusually starchy diet— ‘ ‘ Bread and potatoes at the same meal” was something new! When asked about her home, Joan was quick to say that “Melbourne is. the prettiest city I’ve ever seen. It is w'ell-planned with wide three lane streets. Street cars travel in ^fuweii (Continued from page 3) part of'th^ir vacation in South Caro lina, and Miss Hixson went home to Augusta, “Jaw .lia”. Miss Kirklanil went to her home in Durham, X. C. but says mysteri ously that she did not spend the entire vacation reading “A Wo man’s Life,” the gift of her Strong girls. Mrs. Horton kept “open house” during the holidays for her daughter, Getty Ann, who is a freshman at Hollins College. Dr. and Mrs. Var- dell also had a visit from their daughter, Margaret, who is teach ing at Oberlin Conservatory. Miss Shamburger visited her home in Starr, N. C. and Mrs. Pyron divided her time between Greensboro and Summerfield, N. C. Dr. Will oughby kept the home fires burning later in life! MRS. JOAN CONRAD the middle lane, which is separated from the auto lanes by strips of lawn and palm trees.” “Australians are a sporty people,” .loan says. Her mother at fifty-five still s])ends a lot of time on the tennis court. There must be some thing to the saying that Australians are slow to grow old, for Joan's grandmother, now 9(i, remarried only four years ago. Her husband, a retired sea captain, serves her breakfast in bed every morning in tl^e spirit of honeyniooners in their twenties! The educational system in Aus tralia is different from ours. Joan entered L’Avenir College when she was five, continued for five years, and transferred to high .school. After high school came a one-year business course. Shortly after this, she came to the states. The 14-day trip to America last spring on the ship Tuiliene was “gruesome” because of about 500 patients aboard. Some were psy chopathic patients and a few of the men had to be kept in cages. They gave the appearance of wild people. Joan’s family is of especial in terest to a warring world because of its military background. Her grandfather was a captain. She has an uncle who is a major and one who is a captain, and a cousin who is » Lieut. Commander. “My husband is only a sergeant,” she said, then add ed, “but he’ll be a colonel someday!” BOCOCK - STROUD Company VICTOR, COLUMBIA AND DECCA RECORDS K. & W. RESTAURANT 422 N.
