Dean Of College
Names Marshals
LIVING PROOF that Brevard’s
climate is healthy are the two bush
es that “sprang” up over spring vaca
tion. Actually, they were planted
in the college’s never-ending battle
against ugliness.
YES Commends
Brevard Program
Mr. Lowell Dodge of the
Youth Educational Service of
North Carolina visited the Bre
vard campus on March 28 and
29 to assist in the training and
evaluation of the college student
tutors.
Favorably impressed with the
progress made in the Brevard
program, Mr. Dodge said “the
one at Brevard College, in my
estimation, is the 'best organized
program we serve.” Brevard was
evaluated in the light of the
progress made on 20 other cam
puses in YES.
This progress can be seen in
the often radical grade improve
ments, the large amount of par
ental involvements, the request
for extra tutoring sessions, and
the fact that one eighth grade
girl walks three miles to her
session twice a week.
Phi Theta Kappa
Announces Its
66-67 Members
B.C's Spring Dance
Court Selected
Dr. Jeffers
As Snoopy?
The Methodi>st Student Fel
lowship presented a play entitled
“The Gospel According to Pea
nuts” to the Asheville District
MYF Saturday, April 16, at the

drawn from the cartoon strip by

and philosophical interpretation.
The characters were Charlie
Brown, Mark Price; Lucy, Judy
Sigmon; Linus, Chuck Calkins;
Snoopy, Dr. Jrffers; Schroeder,
^len Green; Miary Jane (Char-
he’s sister), Mary Ruth English;
Violet, Lou Christley; and the
leader, Mr. Williams.
Irene J#hnson did a great job
of directing, and the play was
well received by the MYF’ers.
Phi Theta Kappa, the national
honor fraternity for junior col
leges, held its public tapping
ceremony of new members after
Chapel, Wednesday, April 20.
John Brookshire, President of
the club, gave a brief introduc
tion and then called out the
names of those to be tapped.
Old members of the club pre
sented the new members with
white carnations and then escort
ed them to the front of the
room. President McLarty con
gratulated the new members and
then administered the Phi Theta
Kappa pledge.

membership qualifications at
the end of first semester and
had already participated in the
club’s activities. They are as

The judging committee was
composed of Dr. and Mrs. Lea,
Mr. Ernest Gilstrap, and Mrs.
Ben Patterson (Patterson’s of
Brevard). The candidates were
divided into four groups and
were asked to introduce them
selves and tell their home town.
They were then asked questions
by the judges and were judged
upon poise, beauty, charm, in
telligence, and appearance. A
five-point scale was used for
grading with five being super
ior. The judges said that it was

extremely hard to decide among

and Wendy Sheridan are fresh
man attendants. The queen’s

Yearbooks Come;
Editor Relaxes
Joan Holder, editor of the
Pertelote, announced at chapel
on April 21 that the yearbooks
were available in the office of
Mrs. Brona Roy, the faculty ad
visor.
The yearbook cover is simple
and smart, the color scheme be
ing brown and tan. The Perte
lote expresses new ideas in the
two-page spread as well as in the
fact that it is dedicated to every
one in the college commiinity
rather than one person.
As Joan Holder said in the
epilogue, this book should, in
years to come, provide “a mem
ory that is yours of a profitable,
enjoyable year.”

ician, spoke to the Westminster
Fellowship on “Love, Courtship,

during the session. Dr. Folger

his topic in depth and spoke on
many phases of married life.

chosen on April 24, 1966.

LIKE ALL STUDENTS with spring fever the
Tauscher’s twin collies, Diana and Athena, stare
out the windows of a classroom. Luck is with them,
their grades won’t suffer for the momentary lapse.
