On Wednesda.y, January 31 at five o’clock the entire student bod.v heard Dr. Stone speak. His sjieeeli concerned the steps that had been taken to solve the prob lem of intruders on St. Mary’s jn-emises. Dr. Stone first asked the assist ance of students studying in the classrooms of Smedes. All win dows will be checked and locked each night, hut students in the classrooms are asked to keep the shades down and, if any windows have been opened, to close and lock them when leaving the room. At 10:00 during the week nights, all doors will be locked, and Dr. Stone called on the hall counselors to check the locks on their hall doors. Next Dr. Stone reported that new lights have been added over the school grounds, and he assured the students that this would be one of the best possible protections. He also said that the lights had been placed too high to unscrew and if the.v were broken there would be a loud noise. The lights have been lo- cateil to illuminate doors, fire es capes, the librarv area, and the Peniek and Cruickshank area. Another securit.v measure Dr. Stone cited was the employdng of a detective agency to serve as ad ditional night watehmen. T h e agency has designated three men to inspect St. Mary’s grounds at night. These men have been depu tized b.v the sheriff and can make arrests. Dr. Stone emphasized that their mere presence would be a deterrent factor to any intruder. These men will he enqiloyed for an indefinite time. In closing Dr. Stone called on the students themselves to help and asked them to follow several suggestions that would lessen the liroblem: 1. Never walk around the eani- ]nis at night alone. 2. Walk ill areas where there is plenty of light. 8. Keep shades jnilled at night; in the Avarm weather when the shades are up, wear proper cloth- ing. 4. Take the license niimher of an.vone who makes suggestive re marks. The student body has expressed their gratitude to Dr. Stone for making St. Marv’s more secure. -wax r com- iff airs, both in and in 'Carolina, Mary's :ed Dr. - Tst dat- aersonal job is raduate. e.” [ really but ; I p teach- s-hly en- of St. ins Play II ;ted for oduction at St. ■ To be Father- produc- ’s “The ful mu- finishing leir love e 1920’s, usic and lead is portray..
