Did Ja ever notice at night-time on the campus that a strange color of light is emitted from that top center window of Decker Hall? It is the product of that inventive genius from Georgia, who says that those “soft light” boys have nothing Egoism is the feeling that others have the same high regard for you that you have for yourself .... That’s for free! And while WB’re on the subject, Charlie Loftin has made a survey on the word “facetious.” It’s sur prising what he came up with. Our congratulations to all those students who were tapped for the Marshal Club. As you well know, the Gardner- Webb atmosphere is that of excite ment — that feeling that can come only at election time. As these can didates for the various offices were screened closely, there is a good slate of worthy students to be chosen. Let’s give them our sup- As the construction work about us advances, another bit of con struction catches our eye—the beau tifying project at the rear of the Hamrick Building. In one word— progress. According to the tabulations of Margaret Gold, the number of dia mond recipients nears the dozen mark. As the brief remaining school time applies the pressure, more en tanglements — er, engagements are to be expected. Something almost as beautiful as a full moon is the occasional night scene from this Second West, Deck er Hall window—the lighted pool in all its sparkling grandeur. Between those hours of midnight and the dawning, what is the Gard ner-Webb campus like? Prom center campus, one ‘night owl’ hears the distant “hoot” of another. A light flickers on or off here and there in the dormitories. A faint stream of smoke silhouetted against the hor izon behind Chaunticleer. Prom within the nearby shadowy woods pare hands in a recent Crazy Eight game. To quote Loftin: “For once I was showing Mac how to play in stead of him showing me.” For those who prefer milder forms of entertainment the dynamic duo also furnish Rook cards, TIME magazines, or record albums of Strauss’ music. A sophomore lit book also occupies space on the desk—it’s used as a paper weight. These frequent get-togethers also give Loftin a chance to show off his manly physique. (Some people will do anything to show their muscles). Oh yes, those rings aren’t the pot. They belong to the occupant of the room. He Was taking a shower at the time the picture was made. Platter Chatter If you kats will lay down the Playboys for a minute we’ll make with the trash. Playboy has spon sored a Jazz Poll which is the larg est popularity poll ever conducted in the field of jazz. For anyone who “digs” the modern may be interest ed. There is something that confused me about jazz, Louis Armstrong and Bob Scobey blow a hot trumpet and Shorty Rogers and Chat Baker are blowing it cool, but which is which? Most Jazz fans wUl really eat up the “Golden Arm” LP: by Elmer Bernstein. It features the greatest of jazz drummers. For some great jazz vocal nab up “Singin’ Kay Starr-Swingin’ ” “Errol Gamol, LP, or some of Kay Starr’s earlier recordings. Once in a blue moon comes a long •a record that demands to be called a Classie and “Jam Session” a disc that makes us wish we had recourse to an untapped larder of Sandalny adjectives. Frankie Sinatra gives out with an LP made during his nose dive but have a few tasty numbers such as “Autumn in New York” and “The Nearness of You”. Bongo’s are the lastest musical craze they will cut George W. out on the trumpet. Due to bad connections there is no “Red Hit Parade” this swing. Summer is coming and of course that means the beach and of course the latest and coolest of jive. Some of the top discs may be spinning at O. D. and Myrtle this year may be Little Darling, Loveable, and Pa radise by Ivory Joe Hunter. This Rock and Roll is really flip ping the Gingams as well as the cool studs. At the Rock and Roll show there was fourteen thousand seated, over one thousand standing and three thousand were turned away. there, “Burley Ed”, Rush, Jack W„ 'Elvis, Coffey as well as “Lighting”, “Pork” and “Ike”. Man, lets take It -the lonesome tinKie oi a cow ben. All the campus buildings are wrap ped in silence. Then the wail of a train plowing through the darkness, answered by the howl of a dog. Across the campus and among the shadows comes Officer Jones, ac companied only by the jangle of his keys. Then can be heard the groan ing shift of gears as a transport truck struggles up a long hill. A lit tle later, a closely bundled student walks to his duties at the boiler room. Soon, more lights com eon, mostly from the girls’ dormitories— early risers to greet a new day of studies.
