HELP NEEDED
The Charlotte Collegian is in desperate need of a larger staff. Although
we have had some volunteers, we are still short of help. The past editors
have expressed a feeling that one of the most difficult problems which
faces our publications is the lack of interest and co-operation in the
organization of our newspaper staff. Only with the assistance and back
ing of the students will we be assured of a successful year. It is a common
fact that if a large number of people each do a small portion of the work,
then the burden is held to a minimum. Almost the entire student body at
C. C. work at a regular job. We realize that some of our students cannot
afford the time to give to the publications. On the other hand we are sure
that there are a great number of the students who can give some of their
spare time to the newspaper.
The Collegian has posts open as Assistant Editor, Circulation Manager,
Sports Editor, and Social Editor. The newspaper and also the annual
need a photographer. If anyone is qualified and would like the job he
should contact some member of the newspaper or annual staffs. The
paper also needs students who are interested in reporting happenings
around the school and community. You have paid for the Collegian, why
not make it a good paper?

SPANISH CLUB
The Charlotte College Spanish
club, under the direction of our
more than able Spanish teacher,
Mrs. Hoyle, has in the past been a
big success. The club was formed
on the basis that the students
could obtain a greater interest
about the “south of the border”
language through participation in
such an organization.
The club held various meetings
at which guests were invited to ex
plain the traditions, customs, and
language, to the members of the
club. There was always a good
crowd on hand to witness the fun.
Most of the credit for making the
club a success should go to Ralph
Abercrombie and to Mrs. Hoyle.
Good wholesome fun and excellent
refreshments were on the menu at
each meeting.
The highlight of the year was the
presentation of a play based on an
American in a strictly Spanish
speaking country. Lacy Saunders
stole the show with his wonderful
part. Only Spanish Club members
starred in the play, and for but a
few miscues the play was a very
big success.
The 54-55 Spanish Club was a
wonderful experience for everyone
who participated in its activities.
We should be seeing some new
faces at the meetings this year.
Here’s hoping that the club will
continue along the path made last
year. This column wants to ex
press its admiration to Mrs. Hoyle
and all the members on a job well
done. Let’s hope that the future
will look as bright as the past.
GOSSIP
Here we are again with the latest
news from the halls of Charlotte
College. The news for this column
is gotten right off the heating pipes
and any resemblance to the truth
is truly an accident. If you have
any complaints don’t call us—we’ll
call you.
Getting serious for a minute, we
would like to welcome all the new
students to Charlotte College. We
hope you will like it here at C. C.
and if we can help you in any way
just let one of the old students
know and we will do our best.
Now for a bit of gossip about
some really fine people. Bill Reid
and his wife had a large part in
making the Student Council’s party
for our foreign guests a grand
success. Mrs. Reid, so I hear, is a
very nice person and a wonderful
conversationalist. She also took the
T. V. set out from under our noses
when the Marine Captain won
$()4,000.
Martha Voyles has been advising
the new students and from what we
hear she has got a number of fel
lows spell bound.
Joanne Hovis has her eyes on a
certain Wake Forest student. The
pipes have it that she may be hear
ing wedding bells soon.
The French girls had landed the
other night at Freedom Park and
the situation w'as well under con
trol. The boys have decided to
pour all the milk down the drain
if that is what wine will do for
the fair sex.
Darrell Avery and Johnny Culp
are terrors with the women. If you
don’t believe it just ask them and
they will tell you.
Ralph Abercrombie will install
stoves in his spare time for a small
fee. We won’t guarantee that the
stoves will work, but at least Ralph
will try.
Barbara Duckworth and Ann
Padgett are two of the new girls.
They are real cute, aren’t they?
Sorry, boys, but we can’t give phone
numbers.
There are so many new people
walking around the halls of C. C.
that we can’t even begin to get
all the Juisy stories that will
emerge. We certainly are relieved
to see some of the fresh-out-of-
high-school boys around. Maybe we
will get some fresh gossip.
If anyone has access to any eye
brow raising stories, they will be
appreciated. If they are not suit
able for print they will still be ap
preciated even if they are only for
my own enjoyment.
Well man, I guess that is all the
room we can spare for this column
so here is hoping that everyone is
still my enemy. If you didn’t get on
the list of enemies this time, maybe
you will make it next time.
