Debuts Around Reading Day
On Monday, May 9, the proposed
budget for the coming school year
will be presented in the Student
Body meeting in chapel. One of
the changes suggested by the
Finance Board will be the addition
of $1.50 per student for the pur
pose of publishing the literary
magazine next year.
Last fall a group of interested
students met and elected a staff to
publish the first Salem College
Literary Magazine. Susan Hughes,
the business manager, raised $400.
to finance the first issue and the
editorial staff went to work. Arch
way, the Salem College^ magazine
rniterature and art, will make its
debut around Reading Day.
The first issue will contain stories
by Mary Lu Nuckols, Mar;i Jam
mer, and Felicity Craig, a mono
loeue by Toni Lamberti, a pros
Beverly Wollny, Suzanne Taylo ,
and Skippy Stone.
The Finance Board approved two
proposed student budgets to be pre
sented to the student body at its
meeting in chapel Monday. The
budgets were set up by the Exe
cutive Finance Board after a study
of all student budget organizations.
Amendments to the budget pro
pose that the YWCA get $.85 a
student, a raise of $.10, and that
the general fund account be_ dis
continued and the money in it be
placed in the Stee Gee Rind. An
alternate budget is proposed with
an addition of $1.50 per student to
support the literary magazine.
The raise in the YWCA fee is
proposed because they no longer
receive money from the vending
machine consessions. The raise m
fee would provide funds' to send
students to conferences and to pay
for getting good speakers.
It has been recommended that the
general fund be abolished because
no money has been withdrawn from
the fund in the, past two years. The
money now in that fund would be
transfered to the Student Govern
ment fund. . ,
The student body will also vote
whether to increase the student
budget $1.50 for all_ students m
order to support the literary maga
zine. This change was recom
mended because it would provide an
outlet for the creative work done
on campus and would benefit the
whole student body.
Louise Adams, student of Dean
Clemens Sandresky, will present
her graduating piano recital Friday
night. May 13, at 8:30 in Memorial

scribed by Louise as an “amusing”

four immitate her older brother s
