Autumn Park Theme For Dance Homecoming Eve was celebrated by dreamy dancers as they sw^ed to the music of the Wofford Ter- rior Aristocrats. Floating through a park that was flushed witht the bashful colors of Autumn, the dancers en]oy^ the background of gaily colored leaves, amber strains of light radiating from unique lamp posts casting their illuminous loveliness and deepening shadows toward the S benches below, and the spec^ ial fascination of being escorted by their best girl or boy. After an impressive ceremony during which Miss Betty Lawrence, the homecoming queen, ^^^ceiv^ the crown from the hands of the retiring queen, Miss Martha Car penter, the queen and her escort, Don Payne, the retiring queen and her escort, Emory Crawford and their court joined in a dance *^°Mas^er of ceremonies. Gene Ladd introduced the performers for the intermission Knotts danced her way suggestive and sensuous interpr^ tation of modern music, ^vas fol lowed on the S Hunter who sang “Hurt . laieni ed Donna Johnson “Autumn Leaves”, adding that extra UtU touch of sentimentality to fte se son which promises so much, yei leavel so much more to be reme^ bered. Jimmy Morris offered his rendition of “Love Me Tender and iHarwfey PuUiajm and Barbara Maulden closed the pro^am with a lovely dance of exhibition. At the beginning of the stroke of midnight, the dancers ended their celebration, and their Homecoming day of fun, and with hems raised to escape the dirt of reality and lighted cigarettes dangling from the fingers of the escorts, made their way into the cold night air of winter. I demonstrations, the revolt came Ito a fitful end. Meanwhile across the frontier in Austria, medical and emergency supplies destined for Hungary piled up at border stations while refu gees and observers looked on help lessly. Among the refugees was a vepr high percentage of students who fled across the border at the last moment in fear of their lives. Completely destitute and moralized, these refugees now look ed to the West for assistance. American students showed (and are still showing) a tremendous emotional response in coming to their aid. Contribtutions have been announced by schools in all parts of the United States. Most of the money has been rais ed in spontaneous rallies and dem onstrations called by university students. In the words of Wilmer J. I^^ch- en, executive secretary of World University Service, “The reco^i- tion that the Hungarian revolt be gan with student demonstrations apparently struck a profound chord with the American student body After recoiling in horror, our students suddenly and dramatical ly created a ground-swell that swept across the country.” Large student rallies at Yale, Hunter College, Stanford, and the California Institute of Technology raised more than $10,000. Other schools across the nation are now engaged in similar efforts. Students at Brevard College pitched in and formed the Brevard Emergency Aid To Hungarian Stu dents Committee. They formed the idea of selling green candles, which are the traai- tional symbol of freedom in Hun gary. The county was canvassed ^ Thanksgiving and more than was collected. Students who were conspicuously active in this campaign were B^ Ramsey, R. J- Plemmons, Howard Martin, Jim Morris, Jane Hem^ hill, Leona Wilson, Gene Ladd, Jerry Brady, Harvey PuUiam, J^ ry King, Lois Payne, Don Gen^ and others who generously donated their time and effort. ProfessOT Frank Harvin was the advisor to this committee and was primarily responsible for the organization, of the ‘green candle idea’. Get The Best Serving Your Bookstore milk and ice cream
