A Song to Rose (In the confused modern manner) I twang a lay of loyal love That only modern bards can strum; Eschewed are “dove” and “skies above” To kingdom come. Your eyes—I shall n >t mention “stars”— Are orchestras of fragrant glow. Though how to play in perfumed bars I don’t know. Your mouth, to be original. Is music smoothly polychrome; Intriguing buncombe brings, old pal, The bacon home. Your charm—I may not speak of “fawns” That haunt the leafy woodland way; The “pale-faced moon” and “rosy dawns” Have had their day. But this may please the rare elect: Your charm is musk of fragile buff Or incense heard in retrospect— That’s mixed enough. —Ladies Home Journal. SPORTS The basket ball season is to open soon. The college is hoping to have the best and strongest team that it has ever had. There is a great deal of pep and enthusiasm manifested among the students in this sport. The college wishes to schedule some very good games with other leading col leges. With a more thorough organi zation of the athletic association aod a more vigorous enthusiasm displayed toward the sports, the season should be a most successful one. SOCCOR TEAMS MAK ING MUCH HEADWAY New Game Meets With Enthusiastic Reception Among Student Body The college girls are all “pepped up” over the fact that the soccor sea son is here, and are already making plans for their work. On Tuesday, September 25, they gathered on the athletic field to learn the first es sential of “girfs’ football”. Miss Manson has had the girls in charge and has already organized several teams to start the season off with. Soccor is a new sport for the girls of Chowan. In fact, it is a new sport for most southern schools, but we feel sure that it will be sponsored and approved by the people of Mur freesboro, and hope that in the near future we may be able to give them some games worth seeing. With the field now in good shape, and the team practicing every after noon it will not be long before some exciting contests will be played. As evidence of the fighting spirit already devel '.'.ed in the new game, in a re cent i'vactice game the score was 0-0. Among the candidates for positions on the different soccor teams are the following: Lois Essex, Estelle Carl ton, Thelma Draper, Thelma Peter son, Beulah Lowe, Hilda Matthews, Edna Mills, Mary Henry Lewis, Gladys Clary, Minnie Mae Newbold, Mary Nellie Holt, Beatrice Joyner, Eva Overby, Page Morehead, Jewell Askew, Janice Ballentine, Ruth Wil kins, Willia Thompson, Edith Oakley, Jessie Marie Parker, Edna Lassiter, Willie Mae Horton, Catherine Fleet wood, Doris Parker, Lulu Overton, Vida Bryan, Blanche Allen and Ila Leary.
