February 14, 1948 THE CLARION PAGE THRE^ LIFE WITH THE MARRIED VETS (No. 2 In A Series) The ranks of happily married people received one of its great est boosts last August when Er nest and Betty Traynham were married in Charlotte. They met on the campus here in February of 1946. “Bull,” the nickname he has carried since childhood, had just returned from three years naval service. Since they moved here in Sep tember the Traynham household has resembled a continuous open house. Kam sandwiches and coffee are a regular part of the menu, and everyone who visits might well be prepared to eat. “We just like to see people eat,” says Bet ty. “Eat and then eat some more,” adds “Bull,” who has himself added fifteen pounds since foot ball season. The Traynhams have decided to make their homfe in Greenville, S. C., as soon as ‘Bull” finishes a Physical Education course at the University of Tennessee. “I’ll be going over there next Septem ber and stay two years. Then Betty and I are going down to Greenville where I hope to join the staff of a high school.” For three years in high school “Bull” was an outstanding athlete. Since he has been here, he has been captain of the football team one year and, has continued in his ex cellent ability as an athlete and a leader. “What do you do all day,” I asked. “Well, I usually find some thing that needs fixing, and after classes I spend a couple of hours LONG’S DRUG STORE Parsons Jewelry Watches — Gifts Watch Repairing • SIMPSON’S BARBER SHOP Haircuts — Shaves Compliments Of Whiteway Cleaners Compliments Of MACFIE’S DRUG STORE fooling around with it. After that it’s workouts in the gym and a part time job up-town.” What does Betty do all this time? Well, she’s a secretary down at Ecusta in the Department of Chemical Research. “All those crazy formulas and long words sure do jplay havoc with a person’s shorthand.” In writing about the Traynhams, it is only fair to say something about their star boarder. ...“Dutch Agnew- He moved over for a couple of weeks before he leaves for Tennessee. He and “Bull” and Betty spend a good part of every night now talking about Tennes see and Brevard. 34 STUDENTS (Continued From Page One) ley. Plant City, Fla.; James R.

TO BLOW OR NOT TO BLOW? “Don’t .blow your nose like a bugle,” is the advice of ’ many health authorities to common- cold sufferers. “Sniffling is Ijet- ter,” they add, pointing out that blasting away often forces infec tion into sinuses and Eustachian tubes. “Best defense against colds is at tack,” they emphasize, citing such measures as “healthful diet, ex ercise, adequate rest,„ fresh air, minimum of worry, and wearing rubbers, overshoes and warm clothing, according to the weath er. THE LAUNDERETTE Wash Done In 30 Minutes Next Door To Record Shop 212 BROADWAY What’s Your Opinion? The Question: What’s the mat ter with the boys on the camp us? Eddy Gott: I don’t think there’s anything the matter with them— one anyway. Jo Ann Musgrove: They’re just too bashful. Then too, they’d rather spend money for pool games than dance tickets. Christine Hamrick; They’re all right except they’re sO' conceited. And they could give the girls credit for the sense they do have, Byrd Ledbetter: Some of them need to relax and get more en joyment out of living. Nancy Ingram: Why do the boys who don’t have dates leave the gym parties saying they didn’t have a good time when there are plenty of stag girls? Mildred Fink: The biggest part of them are conceited, and the ones who aren’t are too bashful to speak. The girls would think much more of them if they would use better manners and stop us ing profanity. P. R. Casteen: Nice sometimes, but hard to get along with. Could n’t do without ’em. Betty Lawrence: They’re too conceited. They think the girls should ask them for dates. If they do have a date with you they don’t mind standing you up if they have something else to do or somewhere else to go. Aletha Cagle: Too shy, too backward, or too something. Connie Sholar: They take too piu.ch for granted and don’t have any_jespect for the girls. Betsy Bryson: They’re too darn independent. Brake: They’re wonderful—ea- pecially one! Jane Setser: Fickle! Carolyn Pennington: They’re cute, but they think so too. They gripe because all the girls aren’t raving beauties when they’re no prize themselves. Lois Oyer: They don’t date the girls enough. Glenna Higgins: I just don’t know! “Cat” Adams: Can’t figure ’em Vet’s Quiz On Hospitalization Q. Which veterans are entitled to hospitalization in a VA hos pital? A. Those with seiyice-connected disabilities have top priority. Treatment may be given to non service cases if the veteran can not afford treatment elsewhere and a bed is available. Q.

In an emergency, a relative or friend may telephone a VA hospital or office and reverse the charges. Q. Will VA pay for hospitaliza tion in a private hospital? A. It will if the request has preadmission approval of VA and the treatment is for a service- connected disability. Q. Are dependents of veterans disabled in service entitled to free hospital treatment? A. No. Under existing laws, on ly veterans are eligible for VA hospital care. Q. Does the veteran have a choice of hospitals once treatment is approved? A. Usually the patient is assign ed to the VA hospital nearest his home. But he may be moved to a special center in another sec tion of the country if his disabil ity warrants. out. They’re just too fickle. , Betty Gray Billings: Why don’t the boys act natural around the girls instead of “handing” them a line a mile long? “Pat” Lackey: That’s a good question. Inez EUedge: The biggest thing of course is that they’re too wol fish. Most of them try to be too smart, and some of them are too sarcastic). “Duke”: Not one earthly thing! Ramona Bagwell; They certain ly do lack manners, especially in the dining hall.
