Martin of Winston- Salem tall«3d on the problem.s and advantages facing the college wo men of today Thursday morning in assembly. Mrs. Martin, a graduate of Ran dolph Macon College, was the presi- iileint of the Juaiior Leagues of America during the war and is a well-known social and civic leader in Winston-Salem. Since Thursday was Valentine’s Day, Mrs. Martin kept the theme of love and friendship throughout her informal and informing speech. “It is up to the college women of today,” she challenged, “to begin thinking of their opportunities and advantages and make the decisions on what should be done with them.” Each one must learn to use what she has and use it to the best ad vantage. If each will do her part, the results will be big and great things will be accomplished. Each girl must keep an opon mind, learn the facts on both sides of tho problem; and decide on her own opinion. Above all she must not be afraid of change if it is a change for tho best and a change, for pro gross. She must keep two thoughts uppermost in her mind: think clearly and reason soundly. Mrs. Martin says that the college girl must establish a universal love and friendship throughout tho world ,if the chaos of the after effects of World War I is not to be repeated. Wo must cooperate with the rest of the world and really live and act (Continued on Back Page) Rev. Ray Holder To Lead Spiritual Emphasis Week EEV. RAY HOLDER I. R.C. To Have Student Forum At the request of the student body, the International Relations Club is planning to have student forums every other week beginning the first week in March.

From time to time outside speakers will attend the meetings. ^ Each meeting will be in the rec reation or living room of Bitting at seven o’clock and will last approxi mately 45 minutes.

Pierrettes Select Play For Contest The Feast of the Holy Innocents is the one-act comedy the Pierrettes have chosen to present in the Caro lina Dramatic Association State Con test to be held in Chai)ol Hill on the fourth, fifth, and sixth of April. Tho characters in tho play are: Cornelia Milk and Electa Milk, two maiden ladies who have scon better days. They are living in Millet, Wisconsin. Mrs. Oberly, tho blacksmith’s wife. Jennie, her daughter, young and rather stupid. Mrs. Oman, formerly of Millet, who married and went to live in the city. Try-outs were held Wednesday night in Old Chapel, but the cast has not beon definitely chosen yet. It will probably bo announced next week. The Pierrette entry this year is their first in four years. On a basis of their former performances, the Carolina Dramatic Association has allowed tho Pierrettes to enter the contest without attending tho preliminary try-out in Asheville. If, however, thoro are more entries than expected, tho Association has planned to send a reprosontative on March 30 to judge the play. The comedy will be presented on that date, along with two freshman pro ductions, in the Old Chapel. ‘7 Like My Gal," Pianist Tells Reporters by Martha Boatwright and Peggy Davis Tw,o people, “in love musically and non-musically,” stirred a Win ston-Salem audience Monday night not only with their pianistic skill, but also with their vivacious per sonalities. Genia Nemenoff and Pierre Lubo- shutz were in their dressing room surrounded by ardent autograph addicts. On the table was a note. Taking it in her hand, Miss Nemen off (Mrs. Luboshutz) said: Are you the twp interviewerst (After nodding our heads and knock ing our knees, we took out our pens and paper.) And what would you like to know? Millions of things? Lot’s make it just a few. I’ll do the talking. Pierre thinks I speak better than he. Ya-aa-aa, she doz! Pierre leaned back in his chair. He is a pudgy little man with a long n,ose that is accentuated b^ a lock of straight gray-blonde hair that falls between his limpid brown eyes. He kept his gaze fixed on “my girl.” She is slender, dark-haired, and gracious. As she signed the programs and handed them to -M. Luboshutz, she answered our questions. We get precision by practice, prac tice, practice, and hard work. And that’s our advice to all aspiring musicians. Our pedaling is coordinat ed because we perfect it individual ly. I d(0 nothing but play; Pierre ar ranges and composes. We like every thing we play. Our audiences like good music and prefer the classics. (Our political questions were slyly evaded.) We love Russia and we love America. They are both wonderful. Pierre likes America because it’s like Russia. No, I wasn’t fussing at her when we whispered on the stage, Pierre joked. She was fussing at me. She hates me, but I loff her. Oh, Pierre is a biorn tease. He was a naughty boy tonight. He does n’t always act like that . . . No, we never have stage fright. We are only a little excited before each performance . . , Narrow oscapesf No, never. (We felt self-conscious and tho radiator beneath us, the «nly seat in the room, got hotter. We tried a cooler subject.) No, we have no children, but we have a dog. He’s very musical and a cocker spaniel. He sits under the pianos and listens attentively when we practice. We’ve been married fourteen years—we met sixteen years ago when I entered the Paris Conservatory as Pierre’s pupil. (We asked, “As his star pupilf”) He shook his head violently, no, as my star girlt (He has a one track mind leading only to Genia.) Pierre loves bridge, but I hate cards. I love books and walks with my dog.
