FEBRUARY 20, 1960 THE CLARION PAGE THREE IS THERE A WHY? By JUDY McMANUS It has been seven long years since I made that fateful decision and took journalism in junior high school. It has been seven long years of headaches, tears, excuses, and frank and utter enjoyment. It has been seven long years of meeting and getting to know the most inter esting people and I have loved every moment of it. Every two weeks when I see the first copy of the Clarion, I wonder how it ever got published. Some times I think that all those small particles of articles will never turn out to be one whole paper. And the com.ple:te process is something of a small miracle. It takes two weeks to put out a printable paper ^fourteen fran tic days. The assignment of stories begins on the first Tuesday during class period. There follows the con stant argument about who Ls going to interview who and who absolute ly will not talk to so-and-so. When that is settled, there is a w^k of interviewing, talking, and writing. The second Tuesday, the staff finds themselves re-oiling their ma- chinary ^their typing machinery, that is. And I find myself adding to the general confusion of things by trying to lay out the paper. After finding that it is impossible to do the make-up or lay-out without any copy, I stop trying and make a gen eral nuisance out of myself until Mrs. Sigmon orders me to type. Then I really show all of the talent that I can summon up ^Let’s face it; I use the hunt, peck, and isn’t-it- a-shame-that-I-goofed-again system. Every joiurnalist must know how to type, so I’m told ^well, this one doesn’t. Ask anyone on the staff! After staying up until after mid- Colleges To Visit (Continued From Page One) Elon, N. C.

STOP AT THE ESSO SIGN Taylor’s Esso Brevard, North Carolina Austin's miiiiitiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiitiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiii'iiioi" BEST OF THE BEST night on Tuesday night playing with the glue, scissors, scotch tape, and lay-out sheets, I find myself with an almost complete Clarion— almost without headlines, cutlines, or bylines! I work during my class breaks and chaipel; and then if I’m lucky, I can take the completed copy up to Mr. Anderson and show him what a smart girl I am. Yes, I’m smart—smart enough to know that I am going to have to do the whole thing over again. But I don’t mind—half the fun of trying to publish a paper is the seeing that it is done correctly. On Thursday, I arrive promptly a' the offices of the Transylvania Times to proof the copy and check to see if everything looks alright. These are the happiest times that I spend—there is a great' fascination I in the printing business and the I people you meet there. I have this feeling every time I come from the Times—even if I am covered with ink smudges and tired enough to sleep two days. It’s a wonderful feel ing of quiet elation and tired satis faction in knowing that it’s finally done. Friday is THE DAY! It’s out, and there follows the endless battery of com'ments that each of us on the staff must hear. In the long run, it’s worth it. The pietures, the copy, the iay-out, the people—these make our work worthwhile. To look at the paper and say we did it our selves is the highest reward we can Recently at an SGA meeting, the members began to work on a new social code for Brevard College. In perusing others—and older—ex amples of such codes, the Council members came acrooss this relic. The exact date of this set of rules is not known, but the facts give the indication that the whole thing is a bit antiquated. Because we think it is interesting to read through this and a bit amus ing, the CLARION staff has de cided to reprint parts of it here, in order to differentiate between the old and the new. The new code will be presented to the student body at a later date, and chances are that it will be somewhat more lenient than the following set of social regulations: Social Regulations and Standards At Brevard College A. Rules of Conduct GENERAL STATEMENT: It is expected that the relation ships between the younig men and young women of Brevard College will be in accord vrith th« recogniz ed social conventions of genteel so ciety. In general this means that the young men and young women of the college wiU conduct them selves as ladies and gentlemen at all times. Specifically it means among other things; 1. They %vill not individually nor as a group attract attention to them selves by loud conversation or bois terous conduct on or off the campus. 2. They will be courteous and considerate of each other and of people in general both in what they say an dthe way they act. 3. There will be no physical con tact between young men and young women. Each will keep his or her hands off the opposite sex and so- called play will not be recognized as a legitimate exception to this rule. The only exception to this re quirement might be holding each other’s hand, but TOO MUCH OF THIS MIGHT EASILY BECOME NAUSEOUS AND THEREFORE IF INDULGED IN AT ALL SHOULD BE DONE SO SPARINGLY. Regulations Regarding Dating; 1. Dating Defined: Dating, as here used, means any conversation or as- :ociation between young men and women may go to town with eael other, but they must not be away from the campus more than one hour and the regulations in regard to signing out, etc., must be rigidly observed. 4. Dating is perrmitted from sup per to 7; 15 p.m. 5. One night each week young men may accompany young ladies to the movies under the regulations which are already in force. 6. The dating period on Saturday nights is from 7;30 p.m. to 10;00 p.m. 7. On Sundays young men may accompany young women to church under the general regulations as al ready prescribed. They may be with each other from the end of the church service until dinner. 8. The only other time dating is permitted on Sundays is between the hours of 5;30 to 10;00 p.m. There must not be, however, any dating during the vesper hour. This is not to be construed as prohibiting young men and women from goin;' to thf fKper services together. V. STUDENT PUBLIC OPINION: It is expected that the individual students will through their atti tudes and actions establish a strong si.udent sentixent which will go far towards creating a spirit at Brevard College, which because of its gen eral acceptance and because of its wholesome influence upon the stu dent life of the institution, will make it distinctive as THE SPIRIT OF BREVARD COLLEGE.

The best field goal average for Brevard was made by John Elder, hitting 8 out of 9 shots. Other players hitting in the double fig ures were Glover Coggins with 16 point‘d snd J'Oh'P with 1^ point*, Brevard played a very good first half with a 32 to 18 point lead. However, Lees McRae’s second half comeback slowed the Tornadoes down, and Brevard coasted through to a victory on their first half ef forts. Another victory for Brevard that night was made by the girls. The girls intermural basketball team stood in the victory circle as they topped the Lees McRae varsity girls’ team 46 too 40.
