By ROBERT SHAVER
Well, here we are again. This
month we have a lot of little
stories and anecdotes to tell you.
Just relax and have fun! Exams
are over, thank goodness!

I had always wondered how
those Morman wedding cere
monies were performed. I mean
in the days when stalwarts of
the Mormon faith were allowed
to have more than one wife.
Then recently I came across
old document on the sub
ject, and it seems the custom was
lor the preacher to stand up be
fore the principals and say to
the groom;
“Do you take these women to
your lawfully wedded wives.
The groom- said, “I do!”
The preacher said to the brides
then, “And do you take this man
to be your lawfully wedded hus
band?”
The brides said, “We do!”
Then the preacher said, “Sorne
you girls in the back will
nave to speak up louder—if you
want to be included in this.”

As her little boy watched, a
woman smeared all those greases
on her face. “What’s that for,
Mummy?” the boy asked. _
To make myself beautiful.
Then the woman took tissues

Hmmm,” said the boy. “Didn’t

reason Spencer Hatley and his

trip so “Chin” Snuggs and his
famous Hula dance were thrown

WHO'S WHO
PATSY WILHELM
If you should happen to be
walking down the hall some day
and meet a girl carrying a bag
of money, ten to one, it will turn
out to be Patsy Wilhelm, be-
cause Patsy stays busy as a
beaver carrying out her duties
as treasurer of the Booster’s and
Dramatics Clubs, but her work
doesn’t stop there. She is a mem
ber of the Mary Gulledge Club,
Speakers and Writers Club, and
the Scholarship Club, and is a
Red Cross representative. She is
a member of both the annual
and Full Moon staffs.
Although all these other things
keep her busy, she still has time
to sing. She is an active mem
ber of the Mixed Chorus, and last
fall she served as a delegate to
the Music Clinic at WCUNC.
This hard-working girl’s inter
est doesn’t stop with school ac
tivities, but it extends to the
church too. She is secretary of
the Nursery Department of the
First Baptist Church, a member
of the choir and Choralettes, and
serves as president of the YWA.
Being an active member of the
“Y”, she plays , on the “Y” bas
ketball team, and was a dele
gate to the Tri-Hi-Y convention
this year. Last year she was
vice-president of the Junior Tri-
Hi-Y.
Just give Patsy a movie star
ring Dale Robertsoij or Doris Day
and she’ll be happy.
Two items which are Patsy’s
favorites on any menu are spa
ghetti and meatballs and coco
nut cake with whipped cream.
As for hobbies, hers is basket
ball (when her other activities
leave her time for a hobby).
Wake Forest will be the fortun
ate college that gets Patsy af
ter graduation. Although she’ll
be missed here, we know she’ll
be a welcome addition to any
college campus.
Patsy’s activities and her per
sonality plainly show why she
was chosen Who’s Who for this
month.

FRANK BURRELL
Not many people know much
about the 1953 Crossroads, but
there’s one boy that knows all
about it. He’s the editor. Frank
Burrell is the boy we are speak
ing of. Besides being editor of
the annual, Frank has a great
interest in music. This year
Frank was elected president of
the band after being a member
for five years. During these five
years he has been in the or
chestra and the Melody Makers
and last year was the secretary
of the band.
Frank’s extra-curricular activi
ties began very early in his high
school years, for in the ninth
grade he served as a commence
ment marshal. He has also been
a homeroom officer for three
years, taken part in the Science
Fair, was president of the Jun
ior Hi-Y Club, a member of the
Inter-Club Council, and is a re
porter for the Full Moon. With
so many fine qualities Frank was
one of the first to be tapped into
the National Honor Society, of
which he is business manager.
If you’ve been wondering who
takes care of all the money in
the school, stop! The money
taken in by the Student Lounge
is in safe hands—Frank Burrell’s
hands. Then it goes to the office
safe. Frank handles this money
because he is treasurer of the
Council.
The finest food to Frank’s way
of thinking is lobster, and for des
sert he likes pie (from Burrell’s
Bakery, naturally).
In the entertainment world
Alan Ladd and Janet Leigh are
tops in his book.
For anyone who knows Frank
well, his idea of the ideal girl
needs no discussion.

Annual Tea Hel5
For Home Pupils
The National Honor Society en
tertained today at the annual
Honor Roll Tea held in the Home
Economics department.
The decorations were pattern
ed in a Valentine Day fashion.
Special emphasis was also placed
on the four ideals of the Honor
Society, character, scholarship,
lea:dership, and service.
Delicious fruit punch, tasty
cookies, salted peanuts and candy
cinnamon hearts were served to
the guests. Many guests en
joyed dancing.
Invited to the tea were those
students who had made semester
honor roll and members of the
faculty.
Next year Frank will be one of
those “rambling wrecks” from
(Georgia Tech. There is no doubt
in our minds that he will be one
of the finest “rambling wrecks”
Georgia Tech has ever had. Good
luck, Frank!
