"I’m A Southerner”
Says Hungarian Visitor
by Margaret McCall
That dark, handsome man you
saw walking confidently around
campus this week, going to meals
in that romantic black shirt, and
paying particular attention to two
freshmen - - - that young man was
none other than Frederic Balazs,
violinist in the Pro Musica Quartet
which played in Memorial Hall last
Monday night.
If you liked “Freddie” from juat
seeing him, you should have in
terviewed him as T did. Mr. Balazs is
a native of Hungary, and his for
eign accent adds much to his charm.
When asked the usual question,
How do you like the South?” he
replied, “I am a Southerner,” for
he has been in Winston-Salem be
fore as concertmaster of the Pied
mont Festival Orchestra. He also
stated that he likes the Salem girls
very much and thought them quite
pretty. Tn fact, he liked you enough
to leave his address for any fan
mail you may want to write him:
162 Gregory Avenue, Passaic, N". J.
Mr. Balazs, an honor graduate of
Boyal Academy of Music, Buda
pest, Hungary, is only about twen-
ty,-eight and is already a well-known
violinist and composer. He won
the coveted Romenyi Prize in Vio
lin and played as concertmaster of
the Budapest S.ymphony Orchestra.
When he .I'oined the Armed Forces
over her^, he toured in behalf of
War Benefit programs. He has
given over three hundred perform
ances in the United States in less
than five years.
The attractive ladv with black
hair piled on top of her head, who
accompanied Mr. Balazs about the
campus, was Miss Carol Gebhardt,
the cellist in the Pro Musica Quar
tet. Miss Gebhardt is from New
York and was graduated from the
Juillard School of Music. She ap
peared here in Winston-Salem last
summer in the Piedmont Festival.
Julia Mueller, violist, must have
suspected an interview ' after the
concert, for she left immediately
after the last number. I found,
however, that she is a graduate of
Eastman School of Music and has
been a member of the Rochester
Philharmonic Orchestra and the Na
tional Symphony Orchestra. Mrs.

New Cabinet
The installation Service Of the
now y.W.C.A. Cabinet was held in
Old Chapel last Sunday evening.
A new lighted cross set the atmos
phere for a simply religious service.
With the singing of “Father of
Lights” the cabinet marched in,
each new cabinet member beside
an old one who catried a lighted
candle.
Following the call to Worship and
Invocation, Frances Carr, retiring
president, made a statement. Then
the new cabinet members were in
stalled with the candle lighting.
Peggy Broaddus, incoming pres-
ident„ made the response, after
which Mary Wells Bunting sang a
solo. Following the Litany of De
dication the cabinet marched out
to the recessional, the “Y" Hymn,
“Follow The Gleam”.

ulty of the State University of
Iowa and at present is a member of
the music faculty at Duke Uni
versity.
The last member of the quartet,
Mr. James Lerch, we already know
as head of the violin department
at Salem. Mr. Lerch is responsible
for the organisation of this string
quartet, which is a start toward the
development of an interest in cham
ber music in this locality.

Is Mulhollem
Looking For Rain?
Janie 3Iulhollem, chairman of
May Day, and her committees will
present the annual May Day pag
eant this afternoon at five in the
Dell.
Dashing madly around the camp
us for the past weeks, Janie has
watched her program materialize
into smoothness. Janie can be
heard mumbling in her sleep—it
isn’t going to rain on May Day, it
isn’t . . .
But didn’t you know, it never
rains on May Day . . . only until
4:30 .

GLORIA PAUL
. . . Were you approached, asked,
or argued into playing softball Sal-
em-Davidson Day? Whatever the
answer, are you tired, do you have
achingmuscles, and are you in bad
shape for the May Day Dance? ... I
was approached, asked, and almost
argued into playing softball that’
afternoon, before I even had time
to close my mouth in time to say
that I’d love to. ... My date had
instinctively, I guess, led me to the
hockey field and had given me a
glove and a place in the field before
I had time to open my mouth. But
the nice part about the softball
game Salem-Davidson. Day was the
fact that a man was beside me on
the field: women in sports in inter
esting but it is even more interest
ing to know that a man can almost
always play softball.
. . . The time has cOme. Amazing
ss it may seem, the class softball
games begin this coming Monday.
And if you doubt that these games
will be thrillers, just take notice of
how many people do and how many
people don’t practice softball in the
afternoons: the result will show up.
... As to the when and where for
these games, a tentative schedule
has been announced. A double-
header on Monday atternoon will
start the tournament off in style
when the juniors play the seniors
at 5 o’clock and the freshmen play
the sophomores at 6:45. The games
will be five long innings of excite-
Ballew Elected
Lablings Head
Kjathryin iBallew, rising senior
from Marion, N. C., was elected
president of the Lablings at their
last meeting of the year. Margaret
Fisher, rising senior from Concord,
N. C., was elected vice-president
and program chairman. Candidates
for vice-president were Sophia Bow
en and June Hale.
Before the election of officers,
Dr. Howard Jordan made a talk
on the importance of scheduling
meetings next year.
ment, and food will be served be
tween the two—dinner will not be
overlooked.
. . . Two more games of the tour
nament will be played next week:
on May 6 the freshmen will meet the
seniors; and on May 7 the seniors
will meet the sophomores, both of
these games being played at 5 o’
clock. The last chances for the teams
to make comebacks will be a week
from Monday when on May 12 the
freshmen will play the juniors; and
the following Tuesday when the
sophomores will play the juniors.
The more people present at these
games the more exciting they’ll be.
