F oik Mass Is Success One of the most impressive chapel services of the semester was the Folk Mass Wednesday, May 3. The Anglo-Cats and oth er interested students partici pated in the service which Mr. Fred Valentine, pastor of the Episcopal Church, led. The singing of the Negro Spiritual, “He’s Got the Whole World )>n His Hands,” opened the service as the students came down the aisle clapping their hands in rhythm to the music. The audience joined in, and the auditorium resounded with the singing of the students and the music of the guitars. Throughout the ceremony Mr. Valentine alternated with the group by reading the ritual to which they responded with folk music. In one of the most beautiful parts of the ceremony, Teena Windham, Peggy Killian, Ber- nie Badiali, and George Pat terson sang “All My Trials.” The processional was the lively “Old Time Religion,” which the audience joined in freely. This meaningful service closed with the group singing “Jacob’s Ladder” very softly. ALENT OF ALL SORTS was displayed at soji Talent Show. Shown are Alice Fai- Lheryl Anders doing a Pillow Dance. Crown Was A Surprise SHEILA GOSSETT, smiling brilliantly, reigned over the Spring Dance on May 6. Escorted by John Snow, she looked every inch a queen with her tiara and lovely long-siemmed red roses. Sheila Gossett is darling! She is 5’ 1”, blonde and blue-eyed. She is also Brevard College’s 1967 May Queen. Sammy Rob inson, the President of the Freshmen class, crowned the students’ choice at 10:00 Satur day night at the Spring Dance. He also took the opportunity to plant a kiss on the young lady’s cheek, which immediately chang. ed the expression on the face of her escort, Mr. John Snow. Mr. Snow presently attends Wake Forest, where Sheila plans to enter next fall along with her current roommate, Suzy Smith. Sheila is a member of the Euterpean Society and the Phi Theta Kappa. She is also on the Honor Roll making a shining example as a Big Sister. The fact that Sheila was go ing to receive the crown was a complete surprise to both her and her date. Later, the proud escort of the queen said that he would have sent Sheila a doz en roses even if she had not received the crown with a note attached, “You’re my Queen anyway!” This girl from Murphy, North Carolina, received earlier this year the title of Brevard’s Best Dressed Girl in the CLARION- sponsored contest. Talent Show Wins Applause Last Friday evening the Bus iness club presented a talent show in Dunham. The proceeds of the show went to the Build- \-School program.

Save-A^ild, which is an annual event, has raised money by pledges, baby - sitting, con tributions, and “Campus Ladies.” The most appreciated mode of raising money (by the students) was that of allowing the girls an hour’s grace for only 60c — a penny a minute. Another of the money raising projects for SAC was the Sopho more Carnival. Some of the clubs contributed their profits. The total amount raised by this time is $312. Build-ArSchool, the project for the 1966-67 school year, has earned $762,75. Various mon ey raising projects have brought the money nearer the $1000 goal.
