Meet and Know Zeno Hoots,
Returning Sdlem “Co'ed”
by Andy Rivers
There is a versatile man on cam
pus whom you should know all
about. I do; and this is how it hap
pened;
“What could you possibly want
to know about me!” he inquired
w'ith a perplexed frown on his face.
“Why everything!!” I replied,
non-plussed. It was in this fashion
that I began to delve into the per
sonality of Z«no Hoots, one of our
coeds who is with us again this year.
He first became interested in this
fascinating world of ours in Win
ston-Salem on April 3, 3919. Life
went on, and after attending Rey
nolds High, he continued his edu
cation as a science major at Chapel
Hill. After two years there he
went into the infantry for four
years. His years of service took
him all over France, Belgium and
Germany.
Zeno has numerous and varied in
terests. Making* new friends and
meeting interesting people are right
on top of the list. Playing the
piano, listening to musical programs
and exploring the intriguing fields
of psychiatry rate a close second.
In si)orts, the Yankees are really
keeping one enthusiastic fan by
leading the world series. As for
football, why the Tar Heels of
course!!!
With an amazing knowledge of
world affairs he is ready for a good
lively discussion at any time. Well,
what are we waiting for girls? (Ho
prefers brunettes with brown eyes.)
He’s even willing to expound on the
disadvantages of the new hemmed-
in style.
Attention!
The Weinlands and the Brombergs
need baby-sitters.
Any student who is interested in
a few quiet hours away from school
(with remuneration) and a chance
to do some field work for education
and psychology courses should con
tact these tired mamas and papas.

Seniors Present
Sound System
The Senior Class will present
Salem College with a loudspeaker
system for Memorial Hall as its
class gift.
This project was voted on at a
recent meeting of the Senior Class.
Investigation shows that the system
will cost approximately $800. The
Seniors will provide $300 of the ex
pense, and Mr. Weinland has pro
mised that the college will bear the
remainder of the cost.
The need of a loudspeaker system
in Memorial Hall has long been re
cognized and was brought to the
attention of the Seniors by several
alumnae, who thought it a suitable
class project and offered their sup
port.
Installation of the system will be
gin next week.

go to Europe, and several classes a
day—and Miss Sampson is well-
occupied. Incidentally, if you’re
wary of taking one of her courses
because you don’t know anything
about music, don’t be—this teacher
believes you might learn more if
you start with less!
