pics in St. Moritz, Switzerland. In
these contests of skiing, skating, and

sled race; and Dick Button of Engle
wood, New Jersey, won a champion
ship in men’s figure skating. Fifteen
year old Barbara Ann Scott of Can
ada, won the championshiji in wo
men’s figure skating.

“Of what use was Inca pottery?”
“It was used for spittoons, deep-
fry containers, salad moulds, ash
trays, silent butlers and to im
press visiting Si)aniards and ex
cavators with their advanced
civilization. ’ ’
Some days later, two prostrate
forms were seen being lowered from
South’s second story in long wooden
boxes and it was learned that on
that very same day, the Inca Pot
tery exam had been given and only
two ])eople flunked it.
But after all, that’s life. We
have to learn to take the good and
the bad, the hot and the cold, the
sweet and the bitter, the tall and
the short, the flunk and the pass,
tlie sugar-bread and the raisin
cookies.
P.S. The two prostrate forms were
some old dress dummies that ifiss
Essie wanted to burn iu effigy. -

dress created an impression on Earle
and the SPE’S at Davidson.
Due to the rain several girls chose
to wear old dresses to the dance to
save their pretty new ones till later.
Pinky Carlton saved her beautiful
white net dress and wore instead a
gold taffeta just matching the
beautiful gold and green orchid
which her date sent her. Amy De
busk wore a ballerina black net
dress, off the shoulder. Lovely to
look at. We hope all the arrows
reached their mark last weekend if
not girls there’s always the Jr.-Sr.
and May Day. So if your dress
didn’t bring that certain gleam in
his eye—well, better luck next time!
Club Clippings
Two important play selections
were made by the Pierrettes: Eugene
O’Neill’s Where the Cross Is Made
will be presented at Chapel Hill in
the Spring, and Helen Jerome’s
adaptation of Jane Eyre will be per
formed on campus April 8 and 9.
This same version starring Kath
erine Hepburn was recently given
by the Theatre Guild. '
The Salem Players have scheduled
the following plays for March 18: |
Crotty’s Escape by Moonlight,'
Baker’s Lost Victory and O ’Keefe ’a
Ring in the Groom. j
Because the snow kept many mem- ^
bers away, the Latin Club postponed
its regular initiation service until
next month. The hour was then spent
in plaj'ing Latin anagrams and eat
ing Valentine cake.
Tootsie Gillespie and Carolyn Tay
lor entertained the Spanish Club at
a recent meeting with a musical
program on four major Spanish
composers. Carolyn accompanied
Tootsie who sang the music of Dar
ius Milhaud, who is not a Spanish
composer, but writes awfully good
music, according to Tootsie; Manuel
DaFalla, who wrote the ‘ ‘ Ritual Fire
Dance”, which they didn’t play;
Isaac Albeniz, a good old Irishman,
who wrote “Sevilla” and “Navar
ro” which they played with casta
nets and tambourines.
