Page SIX CLARION INNER-VIEWS This month we are featuring four girls and no -boys in this column. It has been brought to the attention of the staff that since boys are naturally shy, retiring creatures, we should not force them to talk about themselves every month. So. boys, you can crawl safely back in your shell as the spotlight is off you for awhile. Martha Dixon gets first place this time as after this semester she will be an addition to the student body of High Point and a subtrac tion from our own. Several cam pus activities are going to miss Martha when she is gone, because she gives her heart and soul to whatever she decides to do. La^ year and this year, Martha was in the Glee club. Dramatics club and the Ministerial club. She played basketball on the varsity last year, but since she leaves in the middle of the season this time she has to be content to watch from the sidelines. However, in this column she is representing the sophomore volley ball team so her enthusiasm and love for a good game is not totally lost. In the what does life hold in store for me department, Martha is preparing herself by majoring in Religion and minoring in Primary Education. She will probably al ways find time for her hobby, ce ramics, too. Good luck to you at High Point, Martha. If you have lived around Ashe ville and are interested in music, you will probably guess right away who this freshman is. She sings, dances, plays ping pong, likes soft ball and basketball and vice presi dents of student bodies, has red hair and answers to the name of Dean. Wylladene Duckett is her full name, but Dean is what everyone calls her. At the age of fifteen she decided to be a singer and soon she was starting at the bottom of the scale (no pun intended) sing ing at the Waldorf Astoria in New York. Of course to most people singing at the Waldorf wouldn’t be exactly starting at the bottom, but Dean, who has visions of the Metro politan Opera stage in her eyes is looking toward the future and not the past. While the Met is prepar ing for Dean, she plans to teach music or be a director of a church choir. Taylor Hall’s authority on style is Lila Burgess. Lila does not aim to please, she’s trying to set you on your ear. Lila was an art major last year and often says wistfully that she-would like to be a fashion SEALTEST ICE CREAM — MILK ON THE COURT By NANCY CARSON Martha. D i x on, Wylladene Duckett, Lila Burgess and Faye Smiih star in the picture for this issue. They represent the three volley ball teams. designer, but having a mad deske to eat regularly, she is learning shorthand and tjT)ing Lila makes a hobby of drawing, sewing, collecting tea cups, and fishing. She has won numerous art contests. In the sports department, Lila admits that she is not very ath letically minded, but she likes base ball and basketball best. While in high school she was in a beauty contest sponsored by the Boy’s club. Faye Smith is the day student from Brevard with the Virginian accent. She is majoring in business but many people think that with her voice she should be majoring in music. ’ Faye was on the Horace Heidt show in 1950 along with two oth- Have you seen the Brevard Hur ricanes? No doubt you liave been hearing this—just to let you in on a little secret—^the Hurricane is the name of the girl’s basketball team. These females won’t be out done. The Hurricanes got off to a good start by defeating the Etowah high school team by a large margin. This was a rough game but there was some good playing done by both sides. Doris Ferguson was high scorer for Brevard. Jenny Lou Morris play ed well at either position, guard or forward. Anne Cudd was espe cially good in the guarding posi tion. Ellen Torrence, a newcomer to the first string has proved her self worthy of her advancement Celia Sherrill, a newcomer to bas ketball itself, handles the ball like a veteran, and is always in there fighting. Faye Smith, nicknamed “Frog” for the way she leaps into the air to get the rebounds or to shoot for the basket is also playing a fine game. Hilda Norwood, also a newcomer, will, no doubt, be play ing some good ball if she keeps on improving. Betty Lee Starnes—Miss Moseley would find it hard to coach a team without a Starnes on it. For the last three years a member of the Starnes generation has played for her. Betty Lee has held up the name perfectly. LUIian Carney Called “Charleston” on the court, has played fine ball and no doubt will play even better when the sea son really gets underway. Evelyn Ledford is another Casar girl who plays some supenb ball. One thing I’d like to know—does everyone in Casar play ball? Nancy Carson is also present. If you see a girl wearing a rac coon cap and carrying a bag of oranges, don’t shoot it. She’s our manager, June Craft. Wednesday night we donned our new uniforms and proceeded to romp over Etowah by a score of 28 to 12. The new uniforms helped the team’s playing as well as its ap pearance. The girls will not be playing in South Carolina this season which means that the girls will not get to play their old foes, Spartanburg Ellen Torrance, the-new basket ball uniforms.

She is also a cheerlead er, and on the basketball team, Faye is one of the reasons the sophomores and day students are in a play-off for the volley ball championship. The reason for this is that the rules in South Carolina are so different and have been speeded up to such an extent that it is almost like a boy’s game and our team has not been trained for that kind of gama See you next time, but before that I’ll probably see you on the court.
