Jean Griffin Tells All:
Is “Home-Loving Body”
by Peggy Sue Taylor
If she weren’t such .1 “home-
lovin’ body,” Jean Griffin would
like to go into diplomatic work,
but her present ambition consists
solely of “getting that sheepskin”.
She admits to a desire to get mar
ried sometime in the dim, dark
future, but would like to travel a
bit before then. Language, history,
music—all the fine arts interests
•lean, a senior, born and bred in
Rocky Mount.
Radio mystery stories, movies,
dancing and ping-pong are some of
Jean’s liesure time activities. She
has a great fondness for sport clo
thes, but (wonder of wonders), dis
likes bridge intenselj'! In the sum
mer, Jean heads for the beach. She
can almost always be found around
Morehead or Nagshead, her favori
tes in “places to go”. Carolina
gets her vote for the best place to
spend a football week-end.
Jean has been active in many
phases of college life while at Salem.
At present she is a member of the
Prench club, the I. R. S. Council,
the A. A. Council, and the annual
staff. She has been a member of
•the May Court her sophomore and
junior years and was a Sights and
Insights Feature Girl her freshman
year. One of the most important
offices Jean has held, however, was
that of Chief Marshal, to which she
was elected her junior year.

Bitting Burns
Seniors Squirm
by Pinky Carlton
It wasn’t Becky Beasley’s red hot
piano-playing that caused the fire
in Bitting last Sunday afternoon.
It was a pasteboard box of warm
ashes placed near inflammable mater
ial in the furnace room.
Amie in her room smelled the
smoke. Leaning back in her big
easy chair, she said, “Someone must
have struck a match in the base
ment. ’ ’
Izzy sauntered into Fisher’s room
and casually remarked, “I believe
this place is on fire ’ ’. Fisher, Peg
gy Gray, and Spillman sniffed the
air, decided that it was, and dashed
out. Izzy, left alone, went back to
her room. She dressed, combed her
hair, and closed the door carefully
behind her when she left. Rem
embering her cigarettes, she went
back to her room once more and
got them.
Susie Knight was there with her
camera. She took a picture of be
wildered, screaming Peggy G-ray,
who was in pajamas, housecoat, and
fur coat, and was clutching a jewelry
box. Susie also i>hotographed Spill
man wearing a nightgown and her
“old coat”—“I couldn’t decide
whether to wear my new one or
not.”
Mr. Weinland was there. He w’as
out walking with his cocker spaniel
when he saw three fire trucks rear
past him. He and his dog watchcd
them interestedly until they noticed
a strange tiling; the fire trucks had
turned in at Salem square. Throw
ing his faithful i>uppy into the arms
of some nearby children, Mr. Wein
land followed the fire. . He almost
beat the force getting there.
“Who saw it first” was the big
question after the excitement and
Peggy Gray calmed down. The
heroine, formerly known merely as
“Carothers”, stepped forth and
claimed her rightful place of glory.
“I was passing by and smelled
smoke. When I investigated and
found the fire, I called Miss Stout.
She was *sitting peacefully in her
room, reading a book entitled The
Teacher’s Crisis. With the aid of
a fire extinguisher, she and I put
the fire out. Then the three fire
trucks filled with eager firemen,
and a bright red car, filled with
the fire chief, came.”
Later our own former fire chief,
Kat Ballew, who had been studying
in her room all afternoon, walked
to Gooch’s. Bombarded with quest
ions, she replied, “What fire?”
(She uses ear-stoppers.)
