Whether the girls open the daily newspapers to read about their favorite football hero, to discover that another one of their girl friends is engaged, or to inform themselves of the happenings in Korea, at least the Saint Mary’s girls are opening more newspapers. In fact, the subscription for Raleigh newspapers this year has exactly doubled, a total of 32 newspapers being delivered dajly and 51 Sunday editions being delivered. Also the post-office workers have had extra work this year in getting all the out-of- town editions in the boxes by 10 :30. Girls, realizing the importance of current events, willingly volunteered to put important headlines on the blackboard opposite the mail boxes. The assembly programs this year have stressed the importance of news by presenting two excellent speakers. Mr. Wingfield attempted to make the girls realize the importance of asking why to current events, and Dr. Wallace from Meredith College presented a broader and clearer view of the UN to her audience.

But the seniors are so busy they don’t have time to take the privi leges. Instead they read Homer’s classics. A delightful entertain ment ! Not everyone is fortunate enough to get to read these books for credit, p^lease. Air. Aloore, just one check!) The Odyssey has been started (?) and the Iliad has just been fin ished. (It almost finished every one.) All the seniors tried to pound notes and commentaries on the Iliad into their heads. Everyone remem bers Ajax (the foaming cleanser). Ajax fought Hector, leader of the Trojans. Now that Hector—he’s here to stay; he’s a gone guy! Then there was Achilles who thought he was it. Boy, how conceited can one get. Then there were two characters named Diomedes and Glaucos. They were on opposite sides but ex changed armor when they found that their grandfathers had partied together. All the gods ran around like peo ple. Some even got hurt in battle. And in the last part of the book the gods took part in the war (shortage of manpower). It takes an hour to read twenty pages of a classic, and each classic has at least 300 pages. Therefore if one reads an hour a day on a classic, she will have read all but twenty pages when she goes to take the test. If the test covers mostly the first part of the book, a senior will then have a vague memory of read ing some of the things on the test. You can’t win ! If any underclassmen want some extra literature to read, just apply at any senior’s library. P. S. Chaucer translations and classic outlines are greatly needed on Third Holt. we would have to be reminded to watch our table manners ?
