Page 4 NORTH CAROLINA WESLEYAN COLLEGE September 27, 1961 SITUATION: The Salty Dog Rag was the hit of our Freshman Dance September 16. Its widespread popularity was a pleasant surprise. Question: Do you think the Salty Dog Rag will become a tradition here at Wesleyan? BRUCE Ri>,>IPE — I think the Salty Dog Rag should bccome a Wesleyan tradition for two rea sons: (1) the students got to gether and taught one another this dance and (2) all the Wes leyan students seem to enjoy dancing the Salty Dng Rag. RICHARD MARTIN—I think the Salty Dog Rag should be made N. C. Wesleyan’s school dance song because everyone on cam pus seems to enjoy it. PARMIE MOORE—As the first classes at Wesleyan, what we do will set the tradition. I think that the Salty Dog Rag will become a traditional dance. It seems to be a symbol of the Wesleyan spirit and attitude. Field Day Competition . . . OrientationFollowed By ‘Jack Haar’ Talent Show CHERRY (JORHAM—Perso'ially, I loved the dance, but it’s kind ot hard to set up traditions. If we can convey our enthusiasm to the next freshman class and so on we may have started a Wes leyan tradition. (Continued from page 1) lotte Smith. Seeking revenge, the nine sopho more girls pounded the ball back across the net to win two out of three volleyball games. They were Lillie Mae Delamar, Brenda Rose, Margaret Walters, Betty Ander son, Joan Lamberth, Gera-Lu Sher- vette, Wanda Exum, Judy Garriss, Grace Schwartz. The first-time losers were the following freshman girls: Nancy Peebles, Faye Elling ton, Melissa Huizing, Rita Lindley, Rosemary MacDonald, Winnie Stein, Marie Fisher, Parmie Moore. Tennis Matches The tennis matches were mixed doubles. Susan Black and Ervin Cullipher defeated Terry Singer and Bruce Rampe to give the Sopho mores the first advantage in the tennis doubles. Gera-Lu Shervette and Louis Womble, also sopho mores, won out over Mary C. Hodgin and Chet Arthur, freshmen, to give the sophomores a lead. Marie Fisher and Charles Guriy, freshmen, brought defeat to Bill Creekmore and partner, Margaret Walters, to give the freshmen one of the three tennis matches. The freshman girls broke an al most tie with a 5 to 4 score in the softball event. The stars on the freshman team were Faye Elling- Thursday night at 7:45 p. m. the tension from the orientation testing and the problems of un packing floated out the window when Wcsleyan's Miss Shakes peare, Wanda Exum, draped in a red bedspread, put the entire audience in stitches. Directors in Hollywood could take a few tips from tiiat handsome John Alden with the Yankee ac cent. Wesleyan is fortunate to have such a man of distinction. .Mlhough Ervin Cullipher, the innouncer, was a bit corny, his sales talk was superb. Following the show, everyone bought a large bottle of “Nothing.” The master of ceremonies. Jack (Van Massey) Haar, was very composed considering Zsa Zsa (Brenda Robinson) was in her usual “I love you, Dah-ling” mood. By tradition, Wesleyan girls are well-dressed and are very conscientious concerning “decorum forum.” Zsa Zsa brought thi-ee of her best models from Paris which were certainly appreciated. Sighs of envy filled the air when Jimmy Wheeler entered the room in her-his-after- five frock. Bill Garlow captured the hearts with his poised and graceful walk. The entire audience was enthralled when Albert Boone appeared in a most unusual cocktail frock. Zsa Zsa brought a real treat in high design. Alice Kovarco sang “Fascina tion” and Irish Howard read a selection from “Our Town” by Thornton Wilder. These two fine performances were just two more reasons for the sophomores wear ing the beanies (instead of the freshmen). Most unfortunately, Teresa Sing er had an embarrassing moment during the “Itsy Bitsy Mouse,” but that happens to the best of us. The hat is being passed around among the freshmen to buy Ed Schultz, the assistant director, a dictionary; however, with deepest regrets, Ed, “applause” may not be in it. The newspaper has received sev eral letters from females who want ed to know the names of those good-looking cameramen. The pur pose of the paper is to inform; therefore, girls, their names are David Caison and Jerry Miller. Dickie Moore, known in choral as “Frog,” and Evelyn Harris, known in musical circles as “Twist- ton, Marie Fisher, Parmie Moore, Louise Kepley, Bonner Spence, Vickie Taylor, Faye Yester, Mary Jo Barkley, Charlotte Smith. Close behind them were the die hard sophomore girls, Jane Smith, Grace Schwartz, Lillie Mae Dela mar, Mary Lee Winstead, Susan Black, Betty Anderson, Joan Lam berth, Wanda Exum, Margaret Walters. er,” were in charge of the sound effects. Phil-Bill Garlow and Dickie-Don Moore did a wonderful job with “Wake Up Little Suzy.” Ervin Cullipher, Hugh Hounds, and Lillie Mae Delamar demon strated a new step ithat is sure to sweep the nation to the tune of “Michael.” Jack Haar, your talent show was superb!
