Looking forward to their new stu
dies in Medical technology are six
rising seniors who have been ac
cepted at the Bowman Gray School
of Medicine for the coming June
10 session. Paula Macpherson,
Anna Zimmerman, Marilyn Mc
Grath, Ella Raymond, Ann P. Aus
tin, and Mary Stewart Rosenblatt
are the Salem girls who have been
accepted.
Paula Macpherson of Mobile,
Alabama is one of the medical
technology students of Salem who
will complete her training there
next year. She will begin her work
in June and will remain there for
twelve months as will the other five
Salem girls. Her schedule will in
clude lectures and clinical proce
dures, such as hemotology, which
will be held from 8 to 5 daily.
Paula has varied interests such as
water skiing, sailing, and riding as
well as in Bubba Warkins, an Ok
Miss medical student. Paula is
looking forward to living in an
apartment with Mary Stewart, al
though she is concerned over learn
ing to cook, and to the maximum
of freedom and the chance to ac
cept responsibility she will have.
' Upon her graduation, she plans to
continue her lab work in Mobile
' and live at home.
Mary Stewart Robenblatt of
. Charlotte plans to share an apart-
, ment with Paula MacPherson at
,• the Twin Castle Apartments. Like
i Paula, she feels that the most dif-
. ficult problem she will have to
' overcome is learning to cook. Aside
from that, Mary Stewart feels that

the major advantages of living in
an apartment will be learning to
live within a certain budget and
accepting the responsibility. Apart
from her long time interest in the
field of medicine, she is also very
much interested in music, swim
ming, and sailing. Upon graduation
Mary would like to enter into work
in hemotology in a hospital near
Charlotte.
Anna Zimmerman of Winston-
Salem says that her major change
of schedule will be quite different
since she has been a day student
and has never lived away frorn
home. Anna enjoys science and
lab work, while knitting and baby
sitting are her favorite pastimes.
When asked what about medicine
interested her the most, she re
plied, “Interns and the fact that
medicine is such a growing field
with limitless job opportunities.”
Rooming with Anna Zimmerman
will be Marilyn McGrath of Lum-
berton, N. C. Marilyn says that
she will miss prepared meals, free
hours in the mornings, the squir
rels in the attic of Sisters, and her
lovable advisor, Mr. Campbell. She
feels, however, that next year will
be a welcome change from dorm
life. The chemistry of blood is her
major interest and she hopes to
get a position after graduation in
a large hospital in Atlanta. Mari
lyn’s main interests are in Jaguars,
the beach, T. O. G., bowling, and
bridge.
Ella Raymond of Raleigh, N. C.
is also looking forward to her
year’s study at Bowman Gray. She

Salemites Get Invitation
To 'Focus'
bymposium
The Honorable L. Corrin Strong,
former ambassador to Norway, and
former trustee of Salem Academy
and College, will offer to Salem
College two grants of $800 each to
provide travel and expenses for the
summer session of the University
of Oslo, June 29 through August 9,
1963.' A present sophomore and a
present junior will be selected by
a faculty committee to receive the
scholarships. In order to be eli
gible for the award, the candidate
must return to Salem for the en
tire academic year 1963-64.
Applications may be picked up in
the Recorder’s office and must be
submitted before 5 p.m. Tuesday,
April 2. The winners will be an
nounced Thursday, April 11.
Focus will be held March 8-10,
1963, at Randolph-Macon Woman’s
College, Lynchburg, Virginia. It is
a week-end symposium, non-parti
san, student initiated and executed,
it was created to provide a forum
for students of Southern and East
ern colleges to exchange their
views and opinions and to demon
strate their interest in contempo
rary concerns. It will, in short,
bring both students and issues into
Focus.
The theme for the week-end is
“The Image of America at Home
and Abroad.” More than a broad
perspective of the American situ
ation is to be gained, however.
The forum will provide direct
contact with today’s leaders. Fri
day night, James B. Carey (Presi
dent, International Union of Elec
trical, Radio and Machine Work
ers), Philip M. Talbott (President,
U. S. Chamber of Commerce), and
William Proxmire (U. S. Senate),
will deliver lectures on various as
pects of “The Image at Home.”
This area will be further explored
on Saturday morning by Russell
Kirk (author of The Conservative
Mind), Pedro San Juan (Director
Special Protocol Services), and
Charles W. Yost (U. S. Deputy
Permanent Representative to the
United Nations). “The Image
Abroad” will be presented Satur
day afternoon with speeches by
Alasdair I. MacBean (University
of Glasgow), Rafael Oliver (Uni
versity of the South, Argentina),
and Antoni Prejbisz (Academy of
I Planning and Statistics, Warsaw,

Poland). On Sunday morning
“The Religious Image” will be ex
plored by Dr. Thomas Govan (New
York University). The program
also includes art. and literature ex
hibits, a concert, student press
conferences, and receptions.

Focus is February 25. There is a
registration fee of $1.00. The cost
of accommodation is $3.00 for Fri
day and Saturday nights, and must
be sent in with registration. The
charge for meals is $5.00 for Friday
dinner through Sunday lunch and

Flu Bug Bites Many
Student’s, Teachers
by Donna Raper
“Ah-choo” . . . trips to the Food
Fair for a dozen cans of fruit
iuice ... I refuse to give myself
up to the infirmary ... big red
Coriciden pills . . . thermometer
registers above 98.6 degrees . . .
“I’m sorry you’ll have to go bs-ck
to the dorm and pack your bags.”
And with that, eleven girls were
labeled flu victims last week. It
seems that Salemites are no ex
ception to the statewide influenza
epidemic.
From our infirmary Mrs. Pulp
has reported that we are very for
tunate in having only a moderate
number of cases in comparison with
state statistics. Apparently many
girls have been following the nur
ses’ advice by getting enough rest
and by protecting themselves from
the wet weather.
From the faculty the report is
quite different. Students have re
peatedly entered classrooms to find
Miss Simpson taking the roll. But
last Tuesday even Miss Simpson
was missing.
From the Winston-Salem Jour
nal came the report that many stu
dents have been absent from the
public schools.
The flu bug has come ... to the
state, to the city, and to Salem.
So don’t forget to put on your
galoshes on your way to the Book
Store for aspirin.
