MAY, 1945 GARDNKRlWEBB PILOT PAGE FIVE DID YOU KNOW THAT .... Nancy Trout has invested in the Cliffside corporation, her interest is none other than Glenn Parris, a blue eyed angel—yes, angel! The girls on third floor just love finding ghosts on the fire escape! Marjorie Hoyle has charge of Bob Beason—my, he gets around to them all. Another sailor of Lucille Cash’s company is home. Pat Sumner looks so rom antic sitting under the trees on the campus with? Dot Franklin—my oh my, yes_, she’s not left out, she’s rating a handsome civilian, too. M a r g a ret Wacaster changes her men with the moon, she has resorted to an other civilian. Ruth Stewart isn’t behind either, she stepped out with G. T. McSwain, Jr. Louise Martin, Myrtle Whitaker, Martha Lynn, and Marjorie White found some thing other than written data on Chapel Hill—Martha Lynn even found an oral piece of humanity. Ovella is rather lonesome “Since Billy Went Away.” Guy Johnson along with Morris Gilbert made another appearance on the campus last Saturday. We would be lieve that their interest was something other than May Day. “Baby” Harmon knows how to work things ■— the entire family came to see her per form in May Day. Keep up the good work! Kat Crawford now sings, “I’ll Walk Alone.” Betty Bowling likes the Navy now ! Iva Spake isn’t here for de coration only. We all like the looks of Carl and his car. Polly Camp just can’t help shouting when she thinks of Jim’s coming home. Ruth Berry loves red roses or Raymond one—possibly both. Lillian Gilbert can’t get away from Marvin, even though he is in Italy. Eris Smith has an interest in Charlotte. Jackie Huskey, Jeanne Rol lins, Pat Sumner, Polly Camp, Ellwanda Scruggs and Mar garet Roberts seem to have a glorious time on such a short trip as one to Charlotte! MISS HARPER Another of the loyal, un derstanding and interesting faculty members on our campus is Miss Elma Harper, instructor of the Romance Languages. Miss Harper’s home is in Trenton, North Carolina. She graduated from Woman’s College in Greensboro with her B. A. degree and the Uni versity of North Carolina with her M. A. degree. Later she did additional graduate study at the University of Maryland. Before coming here, she taught in Winston- Salem and in the public schools of Jones county, near her home. In 1936 Miss Harper came to Gardner-Webb. Along with her other duties she serves as chairman of the Executive Committee of the faculty. Her interesting classes and lovely disposition have won the admiration of all the stu dents.

MISS SMITH If you came to our May Day exercise you will surely know why Miss Smith is a “favorite” with the students here. Her capability as a teacher and her wonderful personality make her a friend of everyone. Miss Dorothy Meyers Smith from Lexington, Ken tucky, graduated from Georgetown College. Last year she came to Gardner- Webb as instructor of health and physical education. During the summer months she did graduate study at Columbia University. Miss Smith has very capa bly managed quite a number of jobs since she came here. Last year she was sponsor of the Freshman class and was largely responsible for the lovely Junior-Senior banquet. Under her direction the W. A. A. has grown into one of the outstanding organiza tions on the campus. When we are sick it is she that nurses us and soon has us well again. Then May Day—as director of the May Day pro gram Miss Smith worked day and night—practicing - prac ticing - practicing—those of you who saw the program will know how much work was involved. We are very grateful to her for all she did to make this lovely program possible. Yes, as the saying goes Miss Smith is a “Jack of all trades”, and good at every one’ She is certainly a well rounded person and one who is admired very much by the students. “Kashmiri Song”; “Till I Wake” from “Indian Love Lyrics” by Woodford-Findeu.
