Page 4 THE CHARLOTTE COLLEGIAN February 23, 1954 MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT First I would like to thank all of those who helped support our action taken in the Student Council meeting concerning the raising of the Student Activity Fee. It was a matter that had been discussed since last spring, when the Independent Party drew up its platform for this year. It was one of the eight points of our program for this year. We hadn’t taken action before now because there was no need for it, since we couldn’t get it in this year’s catalogue; however, as the deadline was this week, we did take the action. At the meeting there seemed to be some opposition, which didn’t end at the meeting, but was continued and was carried far enough to get a petition recommending a student vote. I am sorry, now, that the students didn’t have enough faith in their student government to bring about something w'hich would have been for the best in the long run. Our action was strictly in order, as we wanted to avoid the problems of the past—insufficient funds for the annual and great problems of campaigning for advertisements and sub scriptions. We hope, however, that all is settled now concerning next year’s activity fee, but we urge you to please support this year’s annual. The “Campus Cutups” March 6th and 7th is going tow'ard the annual. Please come and bring a friend (or friends). If you can’t come, buy a couple of tickets anyway. We are proud to announce the expansion of our line of merchan dise to include coffee, hot choco late, pies, sandwiches, as well as the other products, such as ciga rettes, candy, and school supplies. We urge your patronage of a stu dent-operated and student benefit ed organization. We regret we cannot charge less than seven cents on our coffee, but that is the cheapest price we can “lose” and still make up for it with profit from other merchandise. Our line now includes the follow ing articles: Loose-leaf piper Typewriter paper Composition books Pencils Ball point pens Paper clips Ink Reinforcers (gummed) Index cards Index dividers Protractors Erasers Lead Candy Cigarettes Chewing gum Sandwiches Pies Coffee Hot chocolate Lance products COME ONE, COME ALL The Social Committee is now making plans for a party which will be February 27th. Don Payne, chairman of the committee, said that time and place of the party will be announced soon. Help make the party a success by bringing yourself and your best gal (or pal). CAN YOU IMAGINE? Or.

MARTHA STOGNER IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO The Spanish Club recently had a very interesting meeting, and learned something about South America, too. For the January meeting, the club met in the Home Ec Room and, with the help of a dancing instructor, learned some Spanish dances. It was amazing how much was accomplished by some of the beginners in such a short time. The Spanish Club hopes there will be more such meetings as this. Thanks to Lucille Moses, program chairman, for a wonderful meeting. YOU ALL, COME AGAIN The girls at the Presbyterian Hospital Nurses’ Home send their appreciation to all of the good- looking C. C. boys who attended the recent Valentine’s Day Dance held at the hospital. The girls feel that this was a gesture of friendliness. To quote one of the nurses: “I remember Rea”; Rea Hinson, that is. Boys, there are really some great looking girls at Presbyterian, so why not be “friendly” the next time we have an invitation and go on up and have a swell time. Take Jerry Martin’s w'ord—you won’t regret it. Mankind is divided into three classes: those that are immovable, those that are movable, and those that move. FIELD TRIPS SOON Dr. Hechenbleikner’s classes will soon be starting out on their much- anticipated quarterly field trips. This quarter the Zoology class will venture to Washington, D. C., and the Geology 42 class will “fossilize” near Knoxville and Nashville, Ten nessee. The dates for the field trips are February 19th for the Washingrton trip and March 5th for the trip to Tennessee. Boy, what fun those stu dents will have. An anxious girl says that every time she drops a hint to her boy friend about their walking down the aisle together he takes her to the movies. * * When Noah sailed the ocean blue He had his troubles same as you. For days and days he drove the Ark Before he found a place to park. * * * She: “Don’t you think dancing makes a girl’s feet larger?” He: “Yes.” She: “I rather think that swim ming gives a girl awfully big shoulders, don’t you?” He: “Yeah.” Pause . . . He: “You must ride quite a bit, too.” * * ♦ Until I heard the doctor say, “There’s danger in a kiss,” I had considered kissing you The closest thing to bliss. But now I know biology. I sit and sigh and moan. Ten million mad bacteria. And I thought we were alone!! * * * What a cute little bird a frog are, Him ain’t got no tail at all, almost hardly. When him walks, him hops, And when him sits, him sits on him tail Which him ain’t got at all, almost hardly. + + * “Shay, lady, you’re the homliest woman I ever say.” “Well, you’re the drunkest man I ever saw.” “I know, lady, but I’ll get over it in the morning.” WOW! 7c COFFEE AT THE It's Good, Too
