mim tLMOSIS Republicans Form Club At Chowan Early last month, the Young Republican Club of Chowan Col lege and Murfreesboro was founded. Several projects of ma jor eminence were placed on the agenda of the club for the academic year 1964 - 1965. Since the Club’s orginization, they have worked in connection with the recent National elec tions. This included; poll watch ing, passing out of literature and attending rallies and dinner meetings. During the remainder of the year a series will commence on the “in and outs” of American politics! On Nov. 9, Mr. Conger returned to speak on the John Birch Society. He spoke to the student body on Oct. 23 in Chapel. The officers of the club are: Ray Haynie, President; Moses Whitcher and Phil Pearson, Vice Presidents; Sue Seigel, Secre tary; and Mary Sue McDonald Treasurer. Professor Ted W. Goodmen is the club sponsor. Art Exhibit Displayed Here The Chowan College Public Entertainment Committee secur ed for display here last month, the work of advanced art stud ents of East Carolina College. The exhibit featured a collection of ten oil paintings, and was sent to Elon College to be placed on exhibit. Mr. Eugene Williams, chair man of the Public Entertain ment Committee, said "we are extremely fortunate in securing this work of art for display at Chowan College.” UNANIMOUS VOTE George Washington received a unanimous vote of the electoral college both times he became President of the United States. LUNG WEIGHT An average adult’s lungs weigh approximately three and one-half pounds. Please, Just a Coke! Steaks and mashed potatoes seem to be the dream of every female student in Girls’ Dorm B! In reality, it is peanut butter on crackers and a coke. After living on campus for about two months one would think the stomach could adjust to not having a coke and a sandwich at 11:30 P.M. This may appear to be such a trivial matter that it does not sound like a problem at all. It is a problem; however, when the drink machines are placed o n the other side of the outside door, and those doors are locked at 10:00 P.M.! If this is not enough, the machines must have the correct change inserted! Realizing that time is slipping by, and it is 9:30, a student fe verishly searches through her pocketbook lor a dime. Discov ering there is none, she snatch es out a bill. The jet-like speed, which is obtained while running down the hall to the drink ma chine, is immediately haulted with a screech of bedroom slip pers. Hysterically looking down at her hand, she sees that the bill is a five and not a one. Now, all girls know that if they are holding a five dollar bill in their hands, they have gone into the wrong pocketbook? Speed is re sumed once again — only this time in the opposite direction; back to her room — and time passes! A dollar is found and another game begins. The name of the game is “Who on this hall has change for a dollar.” We can Letters Welcomed The Chowanian welcomes let ters from its readers. The brief er they are, the better the pros pect of publication. Letters should be kept to a maxium of 350 words. They should be legi- blely written and only on one side of the paper, please. They should be typewritten if possible. They should also be of general interest. All are subject to editor ial consideration and should con form to the standards of decency responsibility for statements made. ALL DRESSED UP—These freshman boys are all dressed up for the raf day activities. They are, left to right, kneeling, Larry Baker, Tommy Harris, Don Harris and Ronnie Thomas; standing, Wayne Guenther, Kenneth Thayer, Roger Atkins and Philip Kissell. now see our subject dashing madly about the hall from one room to another, trying desper ately to find change for that ever haunting dollar bill. The energy, so vividly dis played earlier, is declining rap idly as the clock ticks away the minutes. Finally, after much searching, a dime is borrowed. It was found on the third floor. The drink machine, naturally, is on the first floor! Off she races again with the bounding speed of a gazelle, only to run down two flights of stairs; fall over the girl on hall duty; to find a locked door! Alas! Here she stands, gaping at the rectangle of wood, know ing that behind it is — a coke and happiness! There are many realities i n our dorm, this has been one of them. Smack The people who tell you not to worry about the small things have never slept in a room with a mosquito in it. How True Mankind has improved every thing except human nature. Old Quote? Grandpa used to know it as wine, women, and song. Today it’s just Metracal, same old gal, and Sing Along With Mitch. Trouble Shooter . . . An expert is a person who is called in at the last moment to share the blame. Sic There aren’t enough crutches in the world for all the lame excuses. Spastic Epitaphs In a Wilmington, N.C. ceme tery one can read: “Here lies the body of John A. Brown, Lost at sea and never found." In a New England Cemetery you find: “Here lies an atheist. Florida and California for more Goldwater! (w'—i orange-juice) Now Here this A memo from a local boss to his employees reads: Notice to all employees: 11 has come to my attention that employees have been dying on the job and are either refusing or neglecting to keel over. This practice must stop. Any employee found dead on the job, whether in an upright or prone position will be i m- mediately dropped from the payroll. The Management All dressed up and to go. no place Acrobat Sign in a Norfolk office: Keep your mind on your work, your nose to the grindstone, your shoulder to the wheel, and your hands to yourself. (And I sure feel funny in this position.) Math majors take note: Sign on a math class door: “Let no man ignorant of math enter this room.” A closer look revealed the room empty. What? The dictionary on my editor’s desk says that the words “exo dus” and “Friday” are inter changeable at Chowan. Ouch! I was reported that during the recent national campaign MRS.
