One big bee-hive of activity—
that seems the most fitting descrip
tion of the music department now.
With preparation for graduation re
citals and applied music exams,
not a minute can go to waste.
Those that have given recent reci
tals include Mary Bryan Reid, voice;
Betty Lou Olive, organ; Carolyn
Hall, voice; Sara Blalock, voice;
Betty Joyce Sanderlin, piano, and
a joint recital by Rose Rummage,
Jackie Ammons, and Mary Jane
Warrick. We remember with great
pleasure also the two-piano recital
given on May 18 by Miss Suzanne
Axworthy and Mr. John O’Steen,
members of the music faculty.
On May 12, Alice Speas, student
of Mr. Stuart Pratt, was presented
in a piano recital. Her program in
cluded selections from Bach, Bee
thoven, Brahms, Toch, Barber and
Chopin.
In auditions held here on May
10, twelve students of Stuart Pratt,
entering the National Piano Play
ing Auditions of the National Guild
of Piano Teachers, won ratings of
Superior plus. The judge was Miss
May L. Etts, well-known teacher
of New York City. The students
who played in the auditions were
Ann Anthony, Jettie Rea Bradshaw,
Mary Lois Cadle, Katie Lee Cur-
rin, Margaret Anne English, Mary
Dare Moore, David Pinnix, Leah
Scarborough, Alice Speas, Nancy
Wallace, Hortense Wiggs, and Ver
na Wooten. This was the tenth year
Margaret Anne English has been a
winner in the National Auditions,
and for this achievement she re
ceived the Paderewski medal.
Summer is just around the cor
ner now, so that brings nearer that
inevitable day of exams. Good luck
on them, and may you have a won
derful summer. I’ll see you next
fall.

was fun and laughter for everyone
participating in activities ranging
from jump-rope to group singing,
and finally a friendship circle to
end the day of fellowship.
The swimming meet has been
canceled because of cool weather.
However, plans are being made for
a meet to be held soon after school

Summer comes, our ranks break
and classmates are scattered to the
four corners of the world—not lit
erally, but almost! The elite of our
crew will be pilgrims in Europe this
summer. Nancy Hall, Ruth Jeanne
Allen, Pat Bowen, Dot White
and Brooksie Stone sail from Que
bee on June 8, and June 17 should
find them at a quaint sidewalk cafe
in naughty Paris. Lands south of
the border are just as tempting, anc
Virginia Corbett will travel in Vene
zuela.
The big city remains a magnet,
and among those seeing the side
walks of New York is Pete Hamp
ton, future managing secretary of
The Christian Scholar; Verna Woot
en will also work among the sky
scrapers, and Barbe White intends
to do graduate work at Columbia
University. One visiting in Wash
ington, D. C., may take her younger
sister or brother to a day nursery
under the care of Frances Moncrief,
and, if eating in a Hot Shoppe, be
served by Sandra Peterson and
Frances Patterson.
Camp work seems extremely
popular. Sea Gull tops the list with
Mary Ann Chandler, Bonny Mor
gan, Ann Lovell, Susan Walker,
Caroline Riddick, Jean Pace, and
Kay McCosley—^little children, be
ware! Fort Caswell will be head
quarters for Marilyn Green, Jan
ette Honeycutt, Peggy Bennett, and
the McCracken twins. Sylvia Deans
goes to a Friend’s Work Camp in
Pennsylvania and Jane Condrey
plans on an interracial camp spon
sored by the Church of the Master,
New York. Ruth Thames hopes to
work as Director of Arts and crafts
at Nakanawa Camp for girls in
Maryland, Tennessee, while Margie
Stewart has her eyes on a counsel
ing position at O^ebay Park, Wheel
ing, West Virginia. Camp Farwell is
the destination of Liza Culberson,
Annette Lee, and Sarah Lee.
The Sunday school board is em
ploying Shirley McLean, Blanche
Hodge, Delores Blanton, and Vivian
Byrd in North Carolina Vacation
Bible Schools and extension work.
Serving under the Home Mission
Board are Mary Kaiser, Kathy At
kins, Betty Joyce Sandlin, and Zoe
Harmon.
Joyce Stevens, Jo Bond Brock,
and Anne Horne will work at Myrtle

Kenosha, Wisconsin, before return
ing to her home in Denmark in
August. Among those working as
waitresses will be Celia Wells and
Kitty Waynick at the Ston Cafeteria,
Chataugua, New York, and Ruth
Barnes and Ann Cashwell at Sun
Seeker’s Resort, Kill Devil Hill.
Writing enthusiasts include Sonya
Hamilton, future employee of the

Hope we haven’t overlooked any
of you interesting people with fas
cinating summers ahead of you—
the rest of us will go to summer
school or loaf. Here’s wishing ev
eryone the best summer ever!
