THE LANCE
On And Off Campus

week six St. Andrews
Ints attended the spring
Sention of the North State
L\ Government Association
5gA) held at Elon College,
what is NSSGA and why
qt Andrews a member of
Vi, organization are two^ ques-
ons many students are
nterested in.
NSSGA ihad its beginning in
1 with several small North
Volina colleges. The organdza-
on has grown since then to
1 members - Lenoir Rhyne,
,„palachian State Teachers, At-
antic Christian, Oatawba, Pfeif-
»)■ Western Carolina, High
ok Elon, Guilford, and St.
ndrews. Several of the goals
f these colleges are found in
le preafmble of the NSSGA
onstitution. To further “Stu-
lent Centered Campus Organi-
ations,” to “create better edu-
ational standards,” to “improve
he total welfare of students”
nd to recognize the “rights
lid responsibility of the Stu-
gnts to the school, the State,
,e Nation and God ...”
NSSGA, which has its Home
ffice at Catawba College, Salis-
ury, N. C., is financed by
lembership dues of thirty-five
ollars a year per college. It
ewes as an information cen-
er between member colleges
nd sets up the machinery with
hich the members can discuss
roblems concerning student
overnment, judicial matters
nd campus social life. Work
hops have been an effective
Method in discovering what
ind of changes can be made in
le different institutions to
ring about a more workable
tudent association. In the just
Rock
recent Spring Conference, at
tended by more than fifty dele
gates (Bob Zeh, Charles Veitoh,
Carrol Gallant, Ann Ehrhardt!
Norwood Maddry and Carrol
Brooks represented St. An
drews) plans were made to
sponsor a College Bowl between
the member colleges. Also a
plan was worked on which will
make it possible for the col
leges to get big name enter
tainers, by setting up a block
of schools that could bring them
in on a tour basis. A major issue
also discussed at length was the
problem of how to get day stu
dents more involved in campus
activities.
I feel with this short intro
duction to NSSGA and same of
its projects that it is easy to
see why St. Andrews should be
long to this organization. Being
a new college St. Andrews can
gain a great deal by discussing
the problems we face with those
student associations that have
run across similar, if not the
same problems, we are now con
fronted with. This is not, how
ever, just a one-way street with
St. Andrews on the receiving
end. Being a new school also
means new ideas and for any
organization to continue to op
erate, it must have ideas for
fuel.
The NSSGA has a bright fu
ture to look forward to. If it
can keep one foot in the ideal
world and the other firmly
planted in organization and hard
work there is no reason to
think that NSSGA can not be
come the leading student or
ganization in North Carolina.

The Top One Hundred
Girls’ Talk Of
Boys’ Fashions
In retaliation for the bomb
ardment given our girls from
a panel of fashion-conscious S.
A. men, five young ladies met
to discuss their likes and diis-
likes in men’s fashions for
Spring. Put on your armor
boys!
Soiphomore Marty Linville
was the fust to get on the soap
box in 'a protest against the
combinations of striped pants
and madras shirts. Lane Gille
spie, Freshman, contended that
it also looks bad for fellows to
wear different patterns of belts
and shirts. Junior Inez (Buck
wheat) Ewirg commented that
matohmg madras belt, shirt,
and wallet made sharp oolleg-
iate outfit.
PatSy Lackey, Senior, seem
ed to favor yellow for summer
wear. She added that a little
monogram on sweater or shirt
made it more outstanding.
Judy Beecham, sophomore,
contended that blue jeans look
ed just as tacky on boys as
jean dresses did on girls. Con
tinuing on the tacky line, Marty
said the sunglasses chosen by
a few S. A. boys were in poor
taste. Some of the styles make
the fellows look like roaches
or water bugs walking around.
Lane stated that she was
tired of the blue and white col
or scheme so fashionable last
Spring. Judy commented that
burgandy seemed the new col
or this year, especially in
men’s shirts and socks.
“I enjoy seeing college coup
les dressed in maltching out
fits,” said Inez. For look-alike
fashions, Patsy suggested that
couples wear blazers with school
monograms for an eye-catohing
twosome.
Females have a knack for
saying what they think and
Marty exemplified this trait
when she said, “I wish some of
our S. A. boys would relearn
the use of a razor.” Judy con
tinued with the comment that
no girl likes to date a Neander
thal man!
Sorry boys, but the panel was
not very successful in choosing
the most effective after shave
lotion because Judy liked Eng
lish Leather; Inez went for Old
Spice; Canoe was Lane’s fav
orite.

Several hobby topics which
have only one enthusiast in the
