By Sue Page The college year has started and is well on its way and most of us are getting used to the idea of studying once more. One of the best things about Mere dith College is that they don’t expect you to work all of the time, and they even provide for your moments of leisure with an array of sports which really make us able, like Portia, to face life. Making a tour of the activi ties, the first stop-off is the stable. Five new horses have been added to the group. May I introduce you to these steady characters, or just to be punny, stable personalities. First there are the two new five-gaited horses. Top Hat and Chief. Both of these animals have a beauti ful chestnut coat and mane. This summer they were used at a camp near Asheville and are in fine condition for all those inter ested in fine riding. Then there are three pleasure horses, Freck les, a roan. Little Beaver, who is all black, and Bay King, a big rangy bay. Just to make riding even more interesting there is the Hoof- print Club whose only member ship requirement is that you be enrolled in a riding class. This club sponsors such exciting pro grams as early morning break fast rides, and moonlight rides, too, for the lovers of the celes tial bodies! At their first meet ing the new officers were elected. Peggy Patrick is the president, Pat Blackman, vice-president, Betty Jo Smith, secretary, and Diane Newton, treasurer. The best of all of their plans is the horse show to be held this spring. October 16th will mark the observance of the 4th annual Cornhusking Bee. Everybody, including the Faculty, will join in the fun. There is a great deal of inter est being exhibited in the Fresh man Tennis Tournament. If you haven’t signed up to play, come on out and join in. They tell me that it is quite the racket. B.S.U. NEWS The first meeting of the Free man Religion Club will be held at the home of Dr. Ralph Mc Lain on October 8, at 5:00 p.m. Some of the girls who have done field work this summer will speak on their experiences.

The Baptist Student Union initiated its first mass meeting on Wednesday, September 29. Heretofore, the B.S.U. has spon sored a Greater Council meeting to which Sunday School, B.T.U., and Y.W.A. officers were invited. However, this year, because the Baptist Student Union is the re ligious organization for the whole student body, the council decided to hold a monthly meet ing for all students. The purpose of these meetings will be to ac quaint students with the work of the B.S.U. as well as to hold general discussions on the prob lems which arise. This first meeting was opened with a devotional by Sue Page, and a vocal selection by Nancy Hall. Marjorie Wilson, presi dent of the B.S.U., introduced religious workers from various churches who were present to meet students attending the dif ferent churches. Emily Pool, the enlistment vice-president explained that the B.S.U. and local churches urged students to bring their letters with them to the church of their choice for this year. Marjorie Joyner and Lois Pritchett spoke briefly on the reasons why they have joined a Raleigh church. Beth Boggs, secretary, pre sented the program for the year, reminding everyone especially of the B.S.U. Convention which is to be held in Gastonia in No vember. Rosalind Knott, B.T.U representative, announced that two seminars are to be held by Dr. Glenn Blackburn of Wake Forest in November. At the con clusion of the meeting, the Bap tist, Methodists, and Presbyter- ion girls had the opportuninty to meet the workers from those churches. LITTLE THEATRE (Continued from Page One) torium by the Barter Theatre of Virginia. Programs for the Little The atre group’s monthly meetings deserve honorable mention. The first program will concern “try outs,” and succeeding ones will be centered on such things as “lighting” and “make up.” There will also be speakers from the workers at the Raleigh Little Theatre from time to time. To balance work with play, cast parties will be given. Din ner at the S & W Cafeteria is only one of the suggestions for entertainment.
