^IL 29, 1966 THE CLARION PAGE THREB Crabtree Sends Ambassador YOU probably met him at the * the year, when he walk- ® ^ is nne of his mam pas- £f.nd“ald“. "Howdy, rm 2, Reeves and I'm glad to wel- SeTm to Brevard ” He’s that fym—a friendly sort. %e’s the Campus Rectionary from Crabtree-Iron Duff, North Sina. Crabtree (and Jims from Upper Crabtree, by the wav) is a small rural commu- Sv where everybody’s friendly and knows everybody else--Jim likes it that way. In fact, he likes it so much that he goes home every opportunity he gete. He is also very proud of the fact that he was one of a grad uating high school class of six- staunch conservative, he cnee launched hi.mself on a ram pant “Anti-Rebel” campaign, in which he ardently defended any thing that everyone else was against. After a time, however, he abandoned this and went back to his old hobby: arguing (about anything) with Mr. Wil son and Don Vaughn. Jim loves to argue; in fact, he loves to talk period. Especially to the ladies. Talking, nevertheless, is sec ond in line to his other great love. Food. His friends at Webb Hill report that it isn’t safe to leave food lying around, nor is it exactly safe in your hand. Well-remembered is the day in the cafeteria when some of the boys bet him he couldn’t eat ten bowls of hanana pudding. They paid for them, and he ate them. Speaking of food, he also occasionally delights in “saucer- ing” his coffee and eating corn- bread and milk, to the supreme horror of any Yankees who hap pen to be sitting with him. No body, however, cooks like his grandmother, Jim asserts. The major event of Jim’s day is his afternoon nap, but the major passion of his life is t^e- vision. He’s an addict, watches it constantly. His favorite “pro grams” are the commercials, which he is devoted to, espe cially the Alka-Seltzer ad. | BltEVAR&, AYERS ‘"Ilie Store with The Merchandise" Student of The Week—Jim Reeves He gets entirely extangled in science fiction movies. If anyone touches him, he hits the ceiling; so he has to sit in the corner so no one can get at him. Then too, he’s a real fan of chil dren’s movies such as “Bambi” and “Cinderella”. Television has been known to COMPLIMENTS OF tin SUMMER SPORT SHIRTS GALORE! I Sport shirts really cover the I waterfront this summer from wild Hawaiian floral 1 prints . . . new style Madras . both bold and pin stripes and open mesh knit shirts of all varieties. I Among the knit shirts, neck I styles range thru V-neck, boater, Henley, and turtle- neck, to name a few. The choice is infinite — you have only to select the pat terns and colors to fit your personality, and to coordinate with your sport coats, sweat ers and slacks. Always con sider your total look. Pisgah Forest, N. C. get Jim into trouble. Like there was the time he turned on the water in the bathtub and then became involved in watching TV. He only remembered the tub when the water began coming through the Webb Hill living room ceiling, right in the mid dle of “F Troop.” Speaking of Webb Hill, the other boys report that they’re thankful that Jim dropped his music lessons after first semes ter (that singing in the bath room was getting out of hand.) They also say that he’s a lousy shot iJi a water balloon fight, but that he’s a marvelous target. He won’t turn and run; he’ll stand there and get clobbered. Note: sometimes Jim has the feeling that the boys at Webb are ganging up on him. They are. In what time he can spare from television, eating and sleeping, Jim’s Chaplain Roy’s student helper, a member of Alpha Beta Gamma, Business Manager of the Clarion, Presi dent of MSF, a member of Chris tian Council, the Choir, and Kap pa Chi. He also save Kennedy half-dollars and is firmly con vinced they’re going to be worth a fortune in the near future. He craves comic books, par ticularly “Magnus, the Robot Fighter”. Jim and Joe Bob Nesbitt, nis roommate and old friend from Crabtree, separate all of their possessions, except when Jim makes the supreme mistake of borrowing Joe’s socks or ties. And then there’s war. After Brevard, Jim plans to go Lecturers Speak To Sociology 28 Two guest lecturers recently addressed the students in Soci ology 28. The first of the lectures took place on April 18 and concerned economics. “Marriage is nice,” Mr. iRay Fisher informed the sociology students, “—but you can’t afford it.” He then pro ceeded to prove his point by citing facts and figures from Coleman Andrews, of the Depart ment of Internal Revenue. Among the points discussed were whether to buy or rent a house, how much insurance, and working wives. The second of the lectures, on April 22, was by the Reverend G. Daniel McCall of the Brevard- Davidson River Presbyterian Church; Mr. McCall answered students’ questions concerning religion. Some of the areas touched upon were the function of the Bible in governing mod ern morality, sex relations for a nengaged couple, and Protest ant Catholic marriages. Campus Ladies Meet, Elect Mrs. Ruth Martin, president, and Mrs. Marie Craig, secretary- treasurer, were elected by the Campus Ladies on April 26, to head their organization for next year. The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Florence Rails- back, and Dr. Railsback, phys ics professor, entertained the ladies with his color slides of flowers. According to several of the members the slides were “beautiful.” to Scarritt College. He wants to major in religion and minor m agriculture, because he truly loves the farm and would rather be there than anywhere else on earth. He’s "Jim Bob Reeves—from Haywood County and preud of it”. And what else about him? He goes out of his way to think about others especially those in trouble. He’s teeth-grittingly broadminded, will listen to al most anyone, violently disagree, and then say, “But that’s your point of view and you may be right.” He’s a good human being, a tru eindividual, and he’s not afraid to be himself in a world of people afraid to be differ ent. He’s a fighter and a friend. ' We love you, Jim. Don’t change. (Paffi Person’s 'Sret'aiv FREE Bring this ad and play one game of Miniature Golf free.
