That was true literally when Meredith played host on March 12 and 13 to about 2,500 high school stu dents competing in the District Mu sic Festival held here annually. We enjoyed having them and listening to their performances. While elections were the center of interest all over the Meredith campus recently, our musical or ganizations were similarly engaged. New officers for the coming year have been chosen in Sigma Alpha Iota Fraternity. They include Hor- tense Wiggs, president; Shirley Tay lor, vice-president; Jettie Rea Brad shaw, secretary; Leah Scarborough, treasurer; Katie Lee Currin, pro gram chairman; Phoebe Barnhardt, sergeant-at-arms; Mary Lois Ca- dle, chaplain; Margaret Ann Eng lish, store manager; and Mary Dare Moore, editor. Sigma Alpha Iota is also very happy to welcome Mrs. Stuart Pratt as a patroness member. We feel that she will be a vital part of our organization and that her efforts in combination with those of our other patronesses will insure continued fraternity progress. CAMPAIGN WORKER APPEALS (Continued from page six) 1:00, at Parker’s Barbecue Lodge. Greenville Area—March 25, 12:00, luncheon. Richmond, Virginia—April 1, evening meeting. Washington, D. C. — April 2, 12:00, luncheon at the YWCA. Wilmington Area — April 3, 12:30, luncheon at the Friendly Cafeteria. Other meetings are now being arranged. You notice that among the meet ings are two out-of-state ones. We are hoping for a meeting of the Brotherly Love Chapter in Phila delphia, but we have not yet con ferred with our alumnae there. The other out-of-state alumnae who are too widely scattered to belong to chapters are just as important to the success of our campaign as these nearer home; they will not be overlooked. Though it grieves us to say that we cannot make personal calls on these girls, we shall be writing them and getting letters in return. One faithful out-of-stater, without even waiting for the alum nae campaign to get under way, sent in January a check for $75. Distance does not lessen our Mere dith Spirit. Patroness members include Mrs. Harry E. Cooper, Mrs. Carlyle Campbell, Dr. Lillian Parker Wal- lace,j Miss Forrestine Whitaker, Miss Beatrice Donley, and Miss Su zanne Axworthy, advisor.

WE CAN NEVER BE DONE (Continued from page five) inevitable, and there was much talk of selling the buildings to meet the payments due. But the institution which was, in M. L. Kesler’s words, “stayed and upheld by the affections of a great people” survived; and through the subsequent years its share in the Co-operative Program has assured its financial security. Hence this campaign, like that which took place in 1944, is not to make possible the existence or con tinued existence of the College, but to increase its opportunities for use fulness, so that it may even more ef fectively “provide not only thorough instruction but also culture made perfect through the religion of Jesus Christ.” Starts Sunday TONY CURTIS — IN — "BEACH HEAD" MARY MURPHY TECHNICOLOR AT THE NEW RALEIGH’S FINEST The NEW STATE AmUNES Call Your Travel Agent
