The need for such a record room, where any student could obtain accurate information concerning the traditions and customs of a particular organization, has long been felt by the student body. In the record room will be filed the traditions concerning Palio and a brief yearly sum mary of the class parades. Each year, a copy of the class stunts and a copy of the original songs sung at palio will be filed. The traditions concerning crooking. May Day, caroling, and com mencement will be written for the files, and the traditional functions of the classes with the class songs will be compiled and kept. The different clubs will have a file-folder in which will be kept the club constitution, a brief history of the club, a sum mary of the club’s activities for the year, and any other facts of importance. The societies will have a similiar record. The home of this record room will be the former maid’s room on second floor Stringfield, which has been turned over to the Silver Shield for their use. The Silver Shield hopes to make the room attractive and usable. A meeting of the various presidents of the organizations concerned will be held during the first week in February to make plans for the compilation of the material. The Silver Shield has stated that it will welcome from students any sug gestions concerning the room. It is hoped that this record room will answer for students those questions that are heard so frequently, such as: “Where is the class song? Who is sup posed to have charge of this? What did they do in this case last year? What’s this whole thing about anyway?” for the February unit were dis cussed. The unit will be on student government and the honor system. The student com mittee includes Evelyn Straughn, chairman; Mitzi Rod dick, Doris Allen, and Hazel Johnson. The faculty adviser will be Dr. Alice Keith.

She is a two year old filly and is now being trained by Miss Boggess and Mary Esther Sadler. Horseback riding, in it’s sec ond year at Meredith, has be come one of the most popular sports on the campus. Accord ing to Miss Doris Peterson, Head of the Physical Education De partment, there are now 185 girls at Meredith who have procured riding permits from their parents and who are thus This Collegiate World Pie-baking might seem to be a strange hobby to the average student on the campus, but to John Rowlett, North Texas State Teacher’s College, Denton Texas, freshman, it’s a combina tion of hobby, hard work, and a means of earning expenses for attending college. Employed as baker in the kitchen of a local grill, Rowlett shoves a white baker’s cap on the back of his head and pro duces the formula for butter scotch and chocolate pies which he says, are his specialties. “Aw-w, there’s nothing un usual about baking pies,” drawls the boy who baked an estimated 16,000 pies during the past year. “Besides helping pay my way through college, it’s fun.” Rowlett begins to assemble the ingredients that go into the making of 24 pies—all that the oven will hold. “I began taking short orders here four years ago,” he ex plained, “but a year later I be gan learning to bake. I’ve been working entirely in the kitchen ever since.” By this time, 24 pie shells are rolled out, and Rowlett in dustriously measures and mixes huge amounts of dry ingredients with the milk. “I expect I’ll soon be giving up this job for service in the navy, but I plan to open up a bakery when I get out,” Rowlett said. “You see, two of my brothers in the service are bakers, and we plan to go into business together.” With a few twirls of beater, several dozen egg yellows are beaten and expertly blended into the mixture. Rowlett stirs two batches of filling as they cook—one butterscotch and the other chocolate. Even though he makes almost every kind of pie, he makes most of these two because “they’re the kinds most often wanted by the customers.” —By Associated Collegiate Press. in line to elect this sport for the spring semester. Beginning last year with five horses, the college now has available fourteen horses that may be used in the regular class work. The largest class during the fall semester contained nine girls. This gave choice of horses and left some not being used at each of the classes. Recently the college has ac quired two registered saddle horses, and it is expected that they will be put into use right away. One of these horses is a ten year old gelding, and has been shown in the three gaited class in many horse shows. The other is a two year old colt that is now being trained by the girls. Most of the horses now owned by the college were bought in Virginia or Tennessee and are a good type riding horse. Miss Elaine Boggess, riding teacher, is now making plans for the spring semester. These plans include a horse show for the latter part of the semester and several cross country rides that will take the girls out for picnic suppers. Miss Boggess has pointed out that the girls who took riding during the fall semester will be first in line to sign up for this sport during the spring semester. Since the after noons in the spring are longer and the weather usually more favorable for riding, students are beginning to make an effort to get into these classes before the semester opens. Of the girls now taking riding, many are beginners while others have had considerable experi ence with almost all types of riding horses.
