Page Six. THE SALEMITE March 22, 1946. Basketball Varsity Teams Are Announced This Week The Varsity and Sub-Varsity Basketball teams were announced on Tuesday nigbt ■ of this week. Tbe Basketball manager and the class managers chose the two teams. The following girls were chosen: Varsity Team Forwards Gna.rds Watkins McGee Seville Taylor Witherington Finley Sub-Varsity Team Forwards Guards Allen Griffin Gleason Bulloek Mills Little Filterings Say, any of you girls interested in a three room paper cottage? The latest Science Newsletter says that paper homes may help you solve y,our housing problem when Jack or John returns. If their new product does just right, these low cost homes can be constructed in a, short time from a paper plastic building material known as con- soweld. It is said to be stronger and more fire resistent than W|00d, more enduring in some respects than steel, and is almost as light as aluminum. The entire building in cluding walls, ceilings, partitions, stove, sink, ice box, oil heater, and plumbing fixtures may be carried to its location on a single truck. It may be set up in a small fraction of the time needed to build a conventional type three r,oom cot tage. Consoweld consists of two thin panels of hard compressed paper impregnated with resin and held apart by wood strips. The space between panels is filled with fuzzy gray corrogated paper cone which insulates and soundproofs the walls and d0(0rs. The last issue of Pathfinder says that we may be saving our shoe leather in a “science fiction” future city where we will be able to signal for anti-gravity sky cab and step aboard a moving side walk. Anti- gravity has not been mastered yet but moving sidewalks are really on the way. We may take just one step in 1947 get on a slow moving sidewalk and from there it dA>es all the work, shifting the passenger from walk to walk until he is loiter ing to work at stop, speed—nine miles an hour. Pedro Rides Again Once upon a time there was a Wee Taylor, a Lovelace and Garrou- some character, who went out t,o find some food, for he had only a Penny and a Garnet ring. Crossing Green Hills covered with Moss, Lees, muddy-Brown Waters (no Hol brooks however) ho Finley met a Port«r. Said the former to the latter, “I-one nothing; McCalllng is as empty as I am for Ham! Angus to help him, the porter Phyled him up until he yelled, “I’ve got a Crick, mer-over, how can I get hornet There’s no one to go Beck with mel So, Salemites, remember, don’t feed stray dogs or penniless peiople —they will stay with you always, even to tjie End of the World. I Templeton (Continued from Page J) Carplina Week. His teacher. Miss Humphrey, visiting America for the first time, is making the tour with the Templetons. Mr. Templeton d.oes not acquire his repertoire from Braille publica tions but by listening to phono graph recordings. After a dozen consecutive hearings, he can play accurately the piano part of con certo. Alee Templeton ended his pr.ogram with these words that seem to sum up his philosophy: A song is a smile; “a laugh is just like music for making living ^weet.” Have You Heard Flash!—(with apologies to Walter Winchell) Have you nylon-soxers, cotton-mesh soxers, bobby-soxers, and the brand new plastic-soxers heard: Nell Penn is off restriction (while a few more are on)—Janie Morris has lumbagjo—Cat G. has a new type writer (goody! more poems for the Salemite)—^Eliza, Candy, Patsy, and Mac dated Duke men l&st week!

May If (Special to the Salemite) From Judy Austin, World Student Service Fund Regional Secretary UNIVERSITIES IN THE PHIL IPPINES RISE AGAIN 78 “The University of the Philip pines is in ashes,” writes Dr. Maximo M. Kalaw, a leading educator and statesman in the Philippines. This great and beautiful university in Manila had more than 7500 students she ate before going Peggy Gray flew to Raleigh and sat in a special chair, put in the plane just for her, right behind the pilot. And oh, that pilot! Please, may I flyt Joyce Burke’s Jimmy took her to ride in one of hose marvelous planes. She loved it, except that the two and 714 professors before the war. Santo Tomas, the oldest university under the American flag, was one of the other thirty-six institutions of e,ollegiate rank in the Philippines, with a total enrollment of 168,584. Great damage was done to most of these institution^. Only 36,000 vol umes of the 733,099 in the National Library were saved. In other libra ries, 6, 971, 791 volumes were lost, and 90% of laboratory equipment of colleges and universities was de stroyed. The University of the Philippines reopened this fall in temporary quarters. Joe Mixer, California ’43, home from war duty in the Pacific, has written: “I just returned from the Philippines where I saw schools start up from nothing but thatched roofs overhead. But they are build ing students who will sjomeday build their country.” Funds contributed to the World Student Service Fund go to help Filipino students who have suffered grievously during the war, as well as to help students in all of the war-seared lands. Roland Elliott is now investigating student needs in China and other countries in Asia on behalf of World Student Relief. The majority of the free students were active in the resistance movement. At least twenty percent of all stu dents have contracted tuberculosis due to undernourishment and ex posure. Students are now sleeping thirty to an over-crowded room on mattresses on the floor, without blankets and pillows. rather got in the way. A whole crowd of girls flew back to school one time—that is, were going to. You see, well, they really had a nice ride in the plane. Pig Burton, Meatball, Jean Pierce, Ruby Moye, Irene Dixon, and Dot Arring ton said they enjoyed circling the Raleigh airport for two hours in a heavy fog. They really did. Jean Pierce said it was the only time she had had everyone match the peagreen coat she was wearing. All six of them went together beauti fully. Please, may I fly? Candy’s flown before. She said the only thing they ask you when you make reservations is. jbow much you weigh. Flying is really very simple. Really. Carolyn Taylor and Ann Mills had a wonderful time on their plane trip. They landed in “the smartest and newest, most modern airport in the south.” I heard them men tion a “beat-up cornfield and a hike to find a phone,”’but I didn’t get the connection. Guess it’s all right, though. Now, may I fly? Everybody is. May I, huh?
