Page Two LO’ CO’ November 21, 1934 Lo’ Co* Student Publication Of Lonlsbnrg College in this school can do almost anything, but let the girls ride down town with the President without permission and right then and there they are cam- pused. For seeing five minutes pleasure they must pay with three weeks campus or restriction. Why can’t the faculty be more considerate of such cases? Published Bi-Weekly Co-E!ditors and Business Mgrs. Archie Ellis and Stuart Godfrey Feature Editors Newby Crowell and Max Bray HELP KEEP THE FIVE CENT DOPE Society Editor Agnes Godfrey Reporters Harold Belanga, Edith Modlin, Bill Shelton Margarete Lipscomb Faculty Advisor B. B. Bray, Jr. Copy Editors Frances Boyette and Louise Brown Now that the price of Coca Cola is back at the old price of 5 cents per. Let’s all try to do our part in keeping the price at this level. In the sale of bottled drinks, the retailer is required to deposit 50 cnts on each case of 24 bottles. If the bottles are returned the deposit is refunded, but if the bottles are lost then the dealer is losing money on the sales. We cannot expect to secure a drink if it is causing the dealer to lose money, for no business firm can remain open if the said business firm checks up short of expenses at the end of the month. Let’s all show the “Old Louisburg Spirit” and aid in keep ing the price range in reach of all who care for a bottle of pop. Circulation Mgr. lola Lewis LOUISBURG. LET’S GO PUGILISTIC STUDENT PRIVILEGES Why can’t the girls in school have more privi leges? Why can’t they enjoy the college life to the fullest extent instead of making it seem like a prison camp? Youth must respond to its impulses. It must have its fling. The flower of youth which we look for most in the fairer sex, if imprisoned must die. In this school the girls must go to their troom at the sound of the 7 o’clock bell while at other schools they have until 10 o'clock. If they should like to go to a picture' show, why can’t they go without being chaperoned by some teacher. Boys Can we let it be said that Louisburg is without one of the best sports in scholastic circles. We have material, equipment and a place to stage fights. What are we waiting for? Tom Hoskins, Eastern High School Champion of North Carolina, and Mutt Nelson, heavy weight champ at Fort Bragg, are listed among the best in their class, and we have a wealth of material in the lesser 'weight. “Tiny” Tay lor versus “Midget” Shelton should be one of our best attractions. All we are asking is the support of the student body, Let it be known by talking it about the Campus if you want a Boxing team. Give us your support, when football is gone. And Another Thing Another thing I can’t under stand is why everybody’s imagi nation runs wild when a couple comes out from some secluded place—of course, I admit they al ways have that guilty look, but is that a cause to condemn them of anything’ the iiTiagination happens to include?????? Certainly not!! Always give the couple the well- known “benefit of the doubt”. “No, no, a thousand times no! There must be a little gossip by the fem. parties and the poor girl of the condemned couple must put up a fight with every boy she dates from that time until way in the far- oflf future and the* a lone one straggles up, having never forgot ten the horrible crime committed in the pre-historic times, and Lit tle gal again goes to war. Now my critical public, what do you think of this daring editorial ??????? One can see that this naturally makes the younger generation down on the world—Tain’t no Jus tice—Boys, remember this and please use discretion on an after date. And you catty gals keep your mouths shut tighter than you ever thought you could. If there is any wrong in decent dancing, I want to know what it is ? Why was danc ing ever started, and in the best of families too. —Nertz. Organization Of The Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. C. A. was late in get ting a start this year due to the fact that there were several vac ancies in the Cabinet because two of the officers elected last year failed to return. A house-meeting- of the old girls was called Thurs day night, Nov. 8, to fill these va cancies. The meeting was presided over by Virginia Pope, Vice-Pres ident of the Student Council, who explained the purp'ose of the Y. W. C. A. of Louisburg College. The 1934-35 cabinet is composed of the following members: , President Mary Ethel Winn Vice-President Mary Virginia Shearor, Treasurer Virginia Pope The girls will be called together soon to complete the organization and to discuss the plans for the coming year. All girls are invited to join in order to make the Y. W. an important factor in the life of the school. The election of Agnes Godfrey as Senior representative to the Stu dent Council completed the busi ness before the meeting. It Is Said That— The “other boys” will have a chance after W. T. has tired of the available “dates” in school. Here’s hoping. That the love bug is working on “Red on the Head” since his trip to Buie’s Creek. Look out girls he’s a Don Juan in disguise. That Steptoe got sucked in at Campbell too. And after the warn ing that Miss Stipe gave us about the country girls too. That Max has played every po sition that the Louisburg fooFball team has to offer including left end on the bench. May we suggest that he try Princeton for a larger field. CHEERFULNESS IS CATCHING On a declining day in November ■ man came down the steps of his house discouraged, dreading to go to his business. From the street a Toice called out, “Hello, neighbor! It’s a great day!” The man looked up, observed that the sun was shining brightly and there were flowers blooming in the gardens Jilong the street. “Yes," he answered, a little more cheerfully, •'it is a great day.” The man entered his office and said to his stenographer, “It’s a treat day.” She looked up and smiled. He went to lunch, then back to his office, later to his home. There he said to his wife, "This has been a grreat day. Things I thought were against me have turned for the better.” And her face beamed with happiness. “Ne’er again such bliss, Ae love’s first kiss.” Many of the students of Louis burg College were pleased with the Liquid Air demonstration at the high school last week. I don’t know whether they went to see the demonstration or to get out of classes but it was well worth the money invested by each person present. That Early is the guy who is making all those funny noises ev ery nite up in Miss Bruns studio. Cut it out Floyd. It’s killing us. THREE ROADS Three roads there are to paradise That hidden lie from human eyes; The road of Faith that runs afar From failing vision’s guiding star; The road of Hope, broad and fair That anyone may journey there; The road of Love, whate’er befall. The surest thoroughfare of all. These roads are never far apart. And each is in the human heart. —Anon. What the average girl wants is a strong, inflexible man who can be wrapped around her finger. The Ideal Place For RECREATION MULLEN’S BILLIARD PARLOR C. C. RUDD, Mgr. Shake-up In The College Library The Library has gotten off to a pood start, (after so long a time). No longer do we find it hard to gpt service or to have silence. How ever, it seems that the Library of ficials have gore one up on other colleges and universities and have dropped the honor system fi-om Library attendance. A sp''ci«.l rep resentative of Lo’ Co’, by careful observation one day last week, saw the new “we-search-you” system tried out. In every instance the students were shocked to find this idea of “we can’t trust you” being tried out. Several campus leaders have expressed the idea that this is very bad psychology, students will re act in no unbecoming way. “You trust me and I play fair with you. If not—0. K.” Please be reminded readers. The Lo’ Co’ stands 100 per cent for the Library and its work, especially the silence and service of the pres ent. But don’t go too far with the service. K. E. A. Holds Weekly Meeting The meeting was called to order by Pledgemaster Bullock. Roll was called by Bill Clark with Doc Bray pi'esiding. This meeting consisted chiefly of learning the rules and tests afterwards. Pledges who fail ed were massaged gently with a paddle. Each pledge was given at least three chances to say the rules and requirements, if he failed he had to spend an hour from two to three o’clock with Doc Bray to leam the rules. Those present wero Pledgemaster Bullock, Bi:ay pre siding officer, Belanga, Smith Hodges, Bracy, Hoskins, Early, j Tucker, Clarke, Jenkins, Steptoe, West, Taylor, Shelton. The meet ing closed with more massaging of the pledges. Chapel Chats Dr. A. D, Wilcox gave his week ly address to the students of Louisburg College Monday Oct. 2. He spoke on the lack of intelli gence and knowledge in college students. He bewailed the fact that this was partly the fault of the college and teachers. He spoke of the meeting of college presidents and professors recently where a I aner was read about a series of tests given to college students. Figures show, he stated, that the average freshman is smarter than the average senior, junior or soph. Why this is so, he said, cannot be oxoloined, but it is the tnith. In four years the senior leams around five new words which words were bought and paid for at a great price. Then he went on to point out the opposite extreme; the increase in intelligence of man followed by a corresponding de crease in the moral standard of men. Chapel, Thursday, Nov. 15, was conducted by Miss Stipes who m.-ide a +alk on Friendship. Then Miss Bruns sang “The Publican.” Pan-Hellenic Notes Sigma Iota Chi Sorority Pledges.

In expecting a Republican triumph, Harpo must have been as opitmistic as the woman who open ed a gift shop in Scotland. The class motto of a recent graduation class at Harvard was; “Each generation achieves it’s own damnation.” William and Mary, Norfolk Div., the team the Trojans defeated 45 to 0 held E. C. T.
