I n t e r m u r a I $ Students Reveal Summer Plans
By PIGGY LOUSE
Many exciting things have been happening to our cab
inet members during these last two weeks.
We are sorry to loose poor Ru.-well. He suddenly de
cided to join thef oreign legion. At pre.nent he is on active
duty in the Mohabi dessert, watering camels.
Stop by to visit Sharon sometime while she is conval
escing in the infirmary. Unfortunately she fell down the
trash shoot in the girls' dorm while emptying the sand from
her shoes from her recent Florida trip. She only received
minor bruises when she landed, sitting down, on the ground
floor.
Congratulations to our president, Helen Nichol.son, on
her recent marriage. We think you picked a mighty fine
gal, Mr. Harris.
The SCA is sponsoring a picnic next week and every
one is invited. We will have plenty of food, games, swim
ming and fun. Everyone is guaranteed a good time, so come
on out. It will be held in Yellow.stone National Park. Fri
day, April 12. If you have a car or plane you can provide
transportation, see Art Beshot, who is in charge of trans
portation. Remember, this picnic is free, except for trans
portation.
Those who attended the last SCA meeting were ver>'
fortunate in hearing Bertrand Kus.sell, from England, tell
us about his views of Neo-Orthodoxy. Everyone enjoyed it.
Well, this is about all for now. Don’t forget the pic
nic. See you then.

I ACC will be well represented this summer in various
i parts of the United States and Russia, according to answers
'from a recent questionaire given to the studenta. In an-
jswering the question, "W'hat are you going to do this sum
mer?" there were many interesting replies.
J^ceral of our healthy young men are going on an ex-
j pedition to South America. They plan to join a revolution-
lary army and put I’eron back into power in Argentina.
I These include Art Hishop, John .Marfey, Woody Hill, Joe
■ Hardegree, Hill Boswell, Zoda Phipps, Littlejohn Faulk-
iner, and Calvin Nugent. Gene Harnes and Dr. Cutlip plan
I to go along as sponsors for this expedition.
I “We believe in the rights or dictators," said Woody
Hill, spokesman for the group. Further comment came from
Arthur Hishop who said, "Heing from Philadelphia, 1 be-
] lieve in brotherly love. Since Peron is a distant cousin of
imy half-brother, I feel it my duty to rescue him from those
I rabble-rousing tlemocrats.
I John Marley is to have no part in the actual fighting
but ia going along as chaplain for the group. He will be
a.H.sisted bv Calvin Nugent. Calvin ia from KCC.
Another interesting trip will be taken by Mr. & Mm.
Hilly Tomlinson, .Mr. & Mrs. Hobbv Hennett, Mr. and Mm.
Kenneth Kou.te, and Mr. & Mrs. Uavid Hatts. This group
is going to the Holy Land under the leaderahip of Dr. &
Mrs. \'ere Kogers. Theirs is a sort of scientific expedition
seeking t« prove that the Dead Sea is not really dead. They
will also drill for oil on the lluza strip.
A number of professors will be taking graduate work
this summer. This group includes .Mr. Robert Capns, who is
working on his Ph.D. at Campbell t'ollege; Mr. Harry
Swain, who is working on his H.D. from U.N.C.; and Mr.
Jack Scudder, who is working on his diploma from Charles
L. Coon high school. The Collegiate wishes all kinds of
good luck and success to these men in their worthy en
deavors.
David Hackwoods is going on a work camp U>ur to
Siberia. His trip is being sponsored by the Young Commun
ists League at ACC. David has been looking forward to
this trip ever since he was caught (by the lx>ague) break
ing into Young Communist lA*ague Headquarters, in the
basement of the Sigma Hho I’hi house.
A number of girls arc planning to work as showgirls
in the I.JIS Vegas Witel, "Dirt." This is a new hotel located
across the street from "The Sands.” This group includes
Beverly Kdwards, Ted Hubert, Sylvia Allsbrook, Annette
Barefoot, Sue Willoughby, Kack Hutt, Kllen Dennis, and
Miss Ward. Ted really i.s not a girl but he lied about his
age and got the job.
As a publicity stunt stfveral A('C students plan to walk
on their hands from Wilson to Phoenix, Arizona. The win
ner of this contest has been offered three dozen 'ixiir of
artificial arms by the National Association of People Who
Have Uwt Their Hands and Arms Walking From Wilson,
