Advice To

join one or the other.
At Brevard college there are
athletics including football, base
ball and basketball and here is one
sport where student backing is
really helpful. Brevard puts out
teams in every sport that usually
lead the Western North Carolina
junior college conference and with
the student body behind them,
they can win ’em all. There is also
a marching band, organized last
year, that adds color and spirit to
college life.
My advice is to get interested
in everything going on around the
place. Stick your nose into every
club and organization and when
you find your interest, give it all
you have and help build fun,
friendship and good will all over
the campus. There is more to col
lege life than meets the eye. All
you have to do to get the most out
of it is to open your eyes and look
around.
If you like to write, get on eith
er the staff of the Clarion or the
Pertelote. Not only will you find
it interesting work, but if you

ized and elected its officers for
this term. They are: Betsy Bow
man, president, of Marion; Reid
Gilbert, vice-president, of Frank
lin; Jean Eaker, secretary, of Char
lotte; and Jerry Crawford, treasur
er, of Greensboro. The club de
cided not to elect one stage
manager for the year, but rather
that they would elect separate
ones for each production.
On Wednesday night, the Mne-
mosyneans, one of the literary so
cieties for girls, held their initial
ineeting for the purpose of formu
lating initiation regulations for
new members. This program will
be carried out in the immediate
future.
Miss Add Lea Morgan called a
meeting of all club presidents on
Wednesday afternoon. During
this meeting, the social calendar
for the year was worked out, and
it will be posted on the bulletin
board in the administration build
ing as soon as possible. ’

can’t write now but want to, you
won’t have any trouble learning
how.
There are dozens of clubs and
activities at Brevard college, all
for the students. If they are to
serve their purpose, it’s tip to the
students to make them work.
“I don’t like the food we get
here,” you may say. What do you
expect, home cooking? It’s the
lack of home catering that makes
some dislike college chow and
once this is overcome, your gripes
disappear pretty fast. Look for
the good things — not the bad.
Yes, college can be wonderful if
it’s given a chance. Learn the
names of everyone-you meet and
always greet them with a smile.
Help others overcome homesick
ness where it might occur and
make everyone f«el at home.
If you don’t believe college can
be a wonderful experience, just,
stick it out for a while. I’ll wager
that by Christmas there won’t be
a one of you who will want to
leave. If you work together, and
do some constructive thinking and
acting, Brevard can be a place
you will always love. It isn’t
hard. After all, you have about
400 other students to help you.

MOSCOW—Antics of one of the
