Bromberg Amuses Students
With Tales Of Shaggy Dogs
by Debbie D. Sartin
“Now I’m not going to tell you
what happened in Paris, and I don’t
like interviews or making state
ments! ” This was the substance of
Mr. Bromberg’s first speach to me
as I tried to interview him for the
Salemite. Chagrined but not daun
ted I began apologetically with the
stock question of “and where are
you from?”—only to receive the
answer: “now that’s a hard one”.
“Of course,” I agreed (as if only
an Einstein would know the answer
to such a difficult question).
Just as I was about to give up,
Mr. Bromberg began to give me a
list of what he liked. His likes ran
on and on—from beer parties to
modern dance to the Brooklyn Dod
gers. In fact, Mr. Bromberg has
universal interest! and what is still
better, he also has universal talent.
Not only is he an artist, but at dif
ferent times lie . has been in show
business, opened and run a caricature
stand, conducted a children’s radio
hour (where he changed voices with
every character), and won trophies
for dancing (rhumba and square).
However, these varied interests have
always been secondary to his first
love—painting.
His five-year-old daughter, Susan
Ellen, is already an accomplished
artist in spite of her age. (Mr.
Bromberg claims a paint brush for
a teething ring). Susan has been
doubly blessed in her artistry be
cause Mrs. Bromberg is also a fine
artist. In fact, she met Mr. Brom
berg tn an art class . . . sha was one
of his pupils.
Shaggy dog stories intrigue Mr.
Bromberg and his studio-art students
hear one each afternoon at 4 o’clock
when tea is brewed and served in
the lab. “Strong, and no sugar
please!’’

Voice of Firestone”.
Has Varied Training
Eleanor Steber’s career began with
early appearances as soloist at the
Second Presbyterian Church in Whe
eling, W. Va. Her first voice teach
er was her mother. When Eleanor
decided to try for a singing career,
she entered the New England Con
servatory at Boston. Her teacher
was William L. Whitney, the shrewd
80-year-old singing expert. To Whit
ney she gives credit for her de
pendable singing technique. She
studied in New York with Paul Alt-
house, then entered the Metropolitan
Opera Auditions of the Air. She
won the contest, and a Metropolitan
contract, in April, 1940. Shortly
thereafter she made her debut as
Sophie in “Der Eosenkavalier”
under the direction of Erich Leins-
dorf. Then and since the critics
have given her warm praise.
Eleanor Steber is one of the first
American-born and entirely Ameri
can-trained artists to demonstrate
abroad what can be accomplished
in the country which once imported
all its music. She is a well-rounded
musician, continually, working for
improvement and proficiency.

Face Life
Come go to the movie with me.
What’s on? Why that movie that’s
been on since last Thursday—“It
Happened One Moriiing”—starring
25 Salem girls. Come on and go. I
hear that it’s rare!
Good. We got in just in time.
The feature is just beginning. I
wish that woman in front would
take her hat off. I said I wish that
—Oh, thank you. Now. Aren’t you
glad you came?
“It Happened One Morning”
All Star Cast
The following scenes were taken
from actual classrooms in Win
ston-Salem, N. C. . . . The charac
ters are those brave and* daring
Practice Teachers whose actions
will never be forgotten. Un
fortunately.
“Wow!” “I want to sit on the
front row, teacher.” “I’ll sit up
there with you teacher. ” Miss
Broaddus, fitting on a high platform
in front of fifty high school seniors,
blushes, and almost forgets her lec
ture. The class in Sociology is
studying manners and more specifi
cally, how to ask a girl for a date.
Miss Broaddus, still blushing, looks
at her lecture notes with a sigh.
The subject is one she had never
planned to teach.
“Here is some more food I brung
you. Miss Bowers”, comes a furtive
whisper. A banana is added to the
pile of graham crackers, ginger
snaps, and apples on Miss Bowers
desk.
‘ ‘ Miss McNeely, you are my sweet
heart. Kin I kiss you?”
‘ ‘ Miss Scott, are you a Salem Col
lege girl? My big brother talks a-
lot about you all. His name? Anies
Daye. ’ ’
Miss Spruill tells her class in
Home Economics that she has a very
bad cold and may ^ot be able to
lecture distinctly. She will do her
best however.
‘ ‘ Miss Spruill, will you explain
this problem. Our teacher can’t,
but I’m sure you 'can. ’ ’
“Ummm. Yes. That problem?
Uh-Uh-But as you can see, my voice
is getting lower, and lower (now in
a whisper) and lower.”
Well, what did you think of the
show? Gosh! Wouldn’t it be won
derful to be a real Practice Teacher?
Gosh!
Oh, Is this where you are stop
ping? Well, bye. Thanks for go
ing with me.

and frak as well as amusing, ijg
prefaced his lecture with an ex
planation of his equivocal positions
of serious publisher and humorous
lecturer. He gave Salem a gener

Boney Peeps In Closets;
Finds Many New Frocks
Dear Sally Mite,
Well, I’ve done a most unforget-
able thing. I went rambling in
peoples’ closets.
Isn’t that an awful thing to do?
But, heavens, that seemed to be the
only way to see all the lush new
clothes the girls have. You see,
they save them for the week-ends,
and then^ they all go off (or else I
do), so I never get to see them.
I began searching in Clewell. I
found some wonderful clothes on
first floor.
Dale Smith has a very chic new
suit—black. It has a gorgeous er
mine collar that hugs around her
neck. I’d like to have ermine to
keep me warm, wouldn’t you?
Katherine Ives really went in for
hoods. She has cached away, a
green white and black checked wool
dress, with a hood lined in green.
She wore it at the Georgia game
and did she get attention! Also in
her closet is a smooth green and red
plaid shortie coat with- hood to
match. She sho’ will keep her ears
warm.
Dot Arrington has the cleverest
chapeau. One is hlack, trimmed in
shining royal blue satin, hand-made
to match a black cocktail dress
which is trimmed in royal blue se-
:;uins. Must have looked very good
at the Deb ball.
Miriam Bailey has the cutest two-
tone suit with a hood. The skirt is
beige and the full, swing coat is
cinnamon lined with beige. She says
its Town and Country, but that suit
can go anywhere.
lone Bradsher has a stunning look
ing black crepe dress. It’s fitted
princess style with a long skirt
which is caught up in the back in a

Salem’s History
Eev. Douglas Rights, pastor of
Trinity Moravian Church and former
teacher at Salem, spoke on education
at the Founder’s Day program in
chapel Tugsday.
Eev. Rights stated that education
is not in isolation but is in relation
to home, school, and community.
He said it is out of common heritage
handed down to us to be used and
valued but not abused.
The former teacher paid tribute
to Dr. Rondthaler for his contribu
tion to education here at Salem Col
lege. He said he beleived that
Salem had used its heritage as the
foundation stones on which to build.
During his talk Rev. Rights gave
excerpts from old records of this
community which illustrated how
its heritage had been used to ad
vantage. He summed up his ideal
of education in the quotation:
“Having our lamps lighted, may we
hand them on to others.”
♦ bustle, allowing tiny knife pleats
to peek out.
Mary Beth Kitrell has the' sweet
est white evening dress—satin top,
and yards and yards of frothy net
skirt. This dress features a bunch
of violets sprinkled over the skirt.
Sara Ann Slawter has just the
thing for those lazy days. Grey
men’s wear pedal pushers with a
tricky green plaid skirt collared
and cuffed in the matching grey.
Smart, but casual.
Oussie Garth has a darling brown
hat to match a brown satin dress.
Yes, satin is what I found in every
closet.
Keenan Casteen has a gorgeous
green lace dress. Just the thing for
those dancing dates on the tea dance
next week-end. Long sleeves and
boat neckline.
Ann Lanier may not be the gal
with the “red silk stockings” but
she did team up with green nylons
with her green dress. Nice, yes?
Laura Harvey had on an eye-catch-
ing casual the other night. It’s a
green plaid dress, fitted low aver
the hips, where it hag a pleated pep-
lum, fastened on the side with three
gold buttons.
The Seniors, too, have some snappy
new outfits.
Barbara Folger has a' wonderful
looking black gabardine suit and
crepe dress. The dress has a brown
satin front and a brown crepe back.
Beverly Hancock has a most at
tractive tea dress. The skirt is
made of black moire taffeta, and is
cut circular.
Well, —. I hope I don’t get into
any trouble about snooping in clo
sets. It was a lot of fun, and I
might try it again next week.
Right now, I guess I’d better close,
as I don’t have a thing to wear,
and must go look in my roommate’s
closet.
See ya,
Boney
