The New; Look!
By Harry Woosley
Delphian Society Holds Initiation
What is this thing called “the
new look?” Is it man or beast,
living or dead? Is it what the
scientist sees in the nucleus of
the atom? Was it seen on the
Bikini Atoll? Is it in your blood
stream, a dangerous virus ready
to end life on earth? Is it an
aquarium containing a sea ser
pent? Is it a mirror where one
sees, in pain, his own face? Is it
a hand-to-beat the royal flush in
poker? Could it be a new fashion
for women? Yes!
The “new look” is the new (it
is new because only our great,
great grandmothers wore it) fash
ion designed by some lunatic de
signer who wanted to add a new
expense as if the cost of living is
uot high enough—. In a way,
though, it is a saver because if it
gets longer the wearer will not
have to wear shoes and socks.
The “new look” is a killer in dis
guise, lurking in the dark comers
of the universe. It kills the joy of
windy days, and think of the now
silent i^ionaires who sat by
the club windows in former days
watching the fair ones pass by.
All of the long discussion is now
at an end. They sit as gentlemen
should; what a horrible thought!
What dangers do the “new look ’
liold? Any woman could trip and
cause the most brutal of deaths;
sitting on posterior ends in the
light of society. Wearers are
liable to be shot, mistaken for
paratroopers. It adds much dis
comfort to the escort, not know
ing whether he is to dress formal
or informal. It is an asset to the
man who hides behind a skirt; al
so the skirt hides much. (Intend
ed for my rather; O, I say, this is
awkward, plump friends.) It will
throw many out of jobs, especial
ly the ones who mash the air but
tons at the fun house. With such
a n extravagance o f material,
there is the danger of propelling
the wearer to Mars.
The “new look” is made by buy
ing an army surplus parachute and
cutting the shroud lines at the
bottom of the chute. Then extend
the body, to the waist, through
the opening at the top of th§
chute. A new twist may be given
by adding a blue waist band, but
you will have to get patent rights,
as I have patented that idea. Well,
this is it; Geronimo!

front of the Lees-McRae stands.
In this position they played
“American Patrol.” Similarly, the
members of the band formed a
“B” before the Brevard spectators
and played “Hail to the Chief.”
The 36 members composing the
band, under the direction of Mr.
Artley, have great plans for the
Homecoming game. During the
half they expect to play a special
arrangement of “Dixie.” The man
ner in which they march across
the field will be different from
the usual routine. When the “G.
W.” is formed before the Gardner-
Webb stands, the strains of “For
lie’s a Jolly Good Fellow” will
fill the night air. The performance
before the Brevard on-lookers will
consist of the band’s original ren
dition of “I’ve Been .Working on
the Railroad,” featuring the trom
bone section. While parading off
the field, they will present the
usual “Hand Me Down My Walk
ing Cane.”
The drum major and majorettes
plan to demonstrate their abilities
more than ever before by working
out some new prancing steps and
routines.
Those students who are mem
bers of the band are as follows:
Mr. Malvin N. Artley, director;
drum major, Jim Wofford; flag
bearer, John McIntyre; majoret-

Christian Workers
Sponsor Campaign
The Christian Workers club has
undertaken a project to buy new
hymnals for the college auditorium
by collecting money from students
and an unnamed person who will
help bear the expense of the books.
Jim Underwood, president of the
club, expressed the opinion that
members of the student body
would perhaps like to leave some
thing for the school when they
graduate.
The price of these new books is
$1.35 each, and for every dollar
the Christian Workers club col
lects, this benefactor will add
35 cents.
“Booths will be” placed in the
lobby of Dunham Hall to handle
collections from the students and
it is also hoped that this project
will receive support from the fac
ulty as well,” Earl Gibson, chair
man for the project announced.
