IKBHHW Paste Six. THE SALEMITE November 7 ,1947. Accent On Athletics: Sophs Trounce Seniors by Gloria Paul If you have not yet east your eyes over the blazing headlines in this issue of the Salemite, turn over to the front page now. For once— the only time I know of—Salem’s athletics have struck the first page. If you have no idea why Salem came back from Greensboro with such honors, the truth will out now. The attitude towards sports has turned from spit to spirit, a nicer sounding word both for the indivi dual and for the college. Hats off or what have you—hockey sticks or red flannels. This compliment is merely being dittoed from the hearts of people on campus to this column. * 9^ « ^ 4: Ever see anything funnier than a funny hockey game? Ever see people play hockey with the wrong side of the stick? Ever see a hock ey game in which the goalie merely kept the draft from entering the caget . . , If so, fine; if not, explanation follows. If you haven’t heard about on Tuesday between the sophomores and the seniors. I’d be delighted to review the events of this tragic game in which—I’m delighted to report—the sophomores trounced the the old ladies with nicotine stains by the outrageous score of 8-0. The sophomore backfield was well guard ed by Mary Persons^ right fullback. Certain seniors played a hilarious game with the opposite side of the stick. Frances Gulesian, goalie spent a delightful half hour watching the sun and the sophomires disappear down the field. The seniors didn’t enjoy a puff-huff-puff hockey game and longed for the last whistle. Izzy Leeper did her best to try to stop the clock and hide the hock ey ball, to no avail, besides pro viding the strength for the senior backfield. Joy Martin made two goals and Gloria Paul provided the rest. The senior goals were made by—I’m embarrassed to say and also prejudiced— the little brown mare on the side of the hill. But to be broadminded about such a one sided game, let us say that the seniors need a little practice in order to be perfect and rivals of the sophomire hockey team. Some strange soul, a senior, I think, just told me to pick up our Ego and to eradicate myself. Someone else can write this up; I’m fired. WILLIAM McCALL ART LINEN SHOP 420 N. Spruce St. Club Meetings Feature Speakers Salem Victory (Continued from page one) Woman’s College their first defeat. At 3:30 the last two games of the day were played off; Woman’s College met Duke and Salem played Catawba. If Woman’s College tied with Duk^ and if Salem were victor ious over Catawba, Salem would take first place. VICTOEY! At the first of the game,- Gloria Paul scored a goal, this goal being followed up by one from Catawba. Then during the last few minutes of playing time, Clink Clinkscales scored a goal, the one which made Duke and Woman’s College tied Salem the victor by a score of 2-1. 0-0; Salem was then in first place. Duke University won the swim-1 ming honors with Salem taking third place. Ann Jenkins won first place in the back stroke for form. Betty Biles and Sybil Haskins were also represented in these meets. Dr. Craig (Cont. from page one) world,” he chuckled. “Mr. Wein- land was supposed to meet me at 12 o’clock.” (It was then about 12:30.) “Here you sit at the desk for a change.” So I slipped into the swivel chair and childishly en joyed its pseudo-importance. When he asked if it would be all right if he talked about his trip to Eng land, I immediately prepared to hear about statesmen and Socialism or scholars and the Shakespearean Conference. But no, how wrong I was. Instead, he asked, “You have no idea how beautiful the sky was on my trip over.” Then in much prettier words than I can remember he described what the moon, the stars, and the clouds are like over the North Atlantic in July. So I met the best Hardin Craig of all, the humorist and the poet. Mr. David Stafford of Guilford College spoke to the International Relations Club Wednesday night on China. During his three years in China as a member of the American Friends Committee, Mr. Stafford travelled in four of the southwest ern provinces distributing food sup plies to the civilians. After his experiences there he wishes that the American correspondents would not present the “Chinese problem” in such a simplified manner. The problems of China are as vast as the country. One of the most pressing needs is to .simplify the language so that literacy may be come more widespread. Tradition and enormity of popu lation are other barriers to be con sidered in speaking of China. We fail to understand that we must speak of China, not as a modern nation, but as a_ seventeenth century slowly discarding its superstitions. Following Mr. Stafford’s informal talk, there was a discussion period. » « At the German Club meeting. Miss Margaret Crist, a Salem graduate, spoke on her six months of travel in Germany. She told of the lang uage and customs of the people. The members then sang German songs, and refreshments were served. 4: ^ ^ ^ The French and German Clubs met Wednesday night.
