A FURTHER INTRODUCTION Entire coverage of the new faces on the campus was Impos- siblQ last issue, therefore we are continuing an introduction to these people in paper. We regret very much that pictures of all these faces were mot available, but here goes with what informa tion we have. Professor Frederick Loadwick, who replaces Julian Gardner as Ins-ructor of Voice, has had a thorough background of musical training. He is a Northerner by birth, a native of Harrisville, N. Y. He attended various grade schools throughout New York state, and graduated from high school at Oswego, N. Y. It was during his early school days that he became intensely interested in he study of voice and he devoted threj years of his high school education. When he received a scho'arship in Voice at the Uni versity of Syracuse, he entered as a student under the valuable and ^ble instruction of Dean Harold L. Eutler. Later, having receiv ed l.is major in voice, he decided to further his studies at the fam ous Julliard Grauiate School, to which he also received a Voice scholarship. During the follow ing four years at this Observa tory, he studied Opera as well as Voice and was given the leading role in five major productions After leaving graduate school ho appeared in concert and oratorio Fri-dcrick Loadwi.'k engagements in New Jersey, New York City, and New England. For four years he was heard as soloist in many productions and appear ed many times on various radio programs, until he came to Elon. The new leader of our band is Mr. Rhodes, an alumnus of Elon. He attended the Shenandoah Con servatory of Music and has been a leader of the Burlington High School band for seven years. He also teaches mathematics at the high school. Mr. Rhodes otates that he hopes to give us the best , band vet had at Elon. Miss Juanita Pardue has ac cepted the position as college nurse, replacing Miss Helen Clod- felter. She started her education in the public school of Concord, N. C., and she also attended Alta- mahaw-Ossipee High School in Alamance County. For three years she was in training at Ala- ' mance General Hospital, and for a year did private nursing in Bur lington. Professor Hornaday, like most of our new faculty, is from North Carolina. He has been connected with education since his gradua tion from Trinity College, now Duke University, where he re ceived both A. B. and Masteis degree. He majored in English. For several years he taught at Duke University and in the .sum mer he taught English at State College. For the past few years he has been doing graduate work at Columbia University and teach ing in the municipal colleges. Having pursued research work at Columbia he r«eived the Masters degree and later the Ph. D. De gree. He spent sometime in trav el and study and the University of Berlin. . Last year he publish ed a literary magazine of the University of Wisconsin. He was author last of a book of two hundred and twenty-one pages published by Columbia Univer sity. Professor Hornaday comes lo Elon to supply the vacancy made by the absence of Dr. Flet cher Collins.

Cabinet Holds Regular Meeting At their regular business meet ing last Thursday night, the Stu dent Christian Association wel comed Jeanne Hook, recently elected President of the Fresh- Tian Cabinet, as the Freshman Representative to the Senior Cab inet. Jeanne seems to be aware iof the responsibility she holds ! and is fully capable of leading I the Freshmen in their projects j for the coming year. The college has bought a new recording machine for the use o any student interested in making a record. The machine will be kept in the music building and will be under the supervision ol Robert Pitts. An initial fee of one dollar is being charged for maintenance of the machiM, only additional cost will ^e for the records used and these will be sold at cost. Any student or club that would like to make a record should see Mr. Pitts and make an appointment. Joe Tom Stephens, Mary Deane Brown, and Ivan Ollis were ap pointed to the Deputations, Mis sions, and Junior Deacons Com- nittees, respectively. Joe Tom, vho is originally from Roanoke, .labama, is a transfer from Southern Union Junior College Wadley, Alabama. Other business included discus- Sion of a picnic supper to be ,ven in tne near fuiure, and ti- lal plans were made for having 1 chapel program once each I month sponsored by the S. C. A Sop^omore-Fresshman Postponed Two Weeks j The Sophomore-Freshmen re ception, originally scheduled for last Saturday night, was post poned at the last minute, because it was impossible, to secure music for the occasion. Tentative plans call for the reception to be held on October 25, which is next Saturday night. So, barring any unforseen events, the Sophomores will open the in ter-class social season at this time. Elon Student Senate Sponsors Quiz Program “Professor” Tom Smythe took over the job in Chapel Monday morning of stumping the Elon Quiz Experts. The program was sponsored by the Student Senate and for each miss, they gave a ^nrter to the STUDENTS’ ALL or NOTHING CAMPAIGN. On the board of experts were Miss Wilsie Bussell, Betty Hoyt, Dr. French, Coach Hendrickson, Jim Ferris and Jimmy Elder. I The board did so well that Dr. Smith had to see that things were not made too easy for them. The program was cut short by return to classes, but before leaving, the Senate turned over the remaind er of the money to the Campaign. The most versatile performer of the team was Coach Hendrick son who threw passes into the I literary and musical field as w^ll as the athletic realm. BID NIGHT RESULT SHOW 26 PLEDGES MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION Reporter Solves Enrollment Total CO-EDITOR OF MAROON AND GOLD HAS LEFT SCHOOL Mary Mendenhall, Co-editor of the Maroon and Gold, has left school and will take a position in her home town, Orlando, Fla. Mary, an outstanding member of the Junior Class, was secretary of her class, a member of the Pan Hellanic CouncU and a member jf the Beta Omicron Beta Soror ity. The Ministerial Association is a little. ^ noted, but very necessary part of Elon’s campus life. Com posed of those students who in tend entering the ministry, it goes its way, holding meetings and gainiftg inspiration from them, without being given much recog nition. Every Monday afternoon it has its regular meeting, where sermonettes are given by students, with constructive criticism. Pri vate devotions are held, and once a month a special meeting with outside spealters is held in the Y. W. C. A. or in private homes. Other students and the general public are invited to attend these meetings and participate in the program. Bids were issued to 25 new Fraternity and Sorority members last Saturday night amid much fun and excitement staged by all the Fraternities and Sororities on the campus. Sigma Phi Beta took in four new members, Marvin Walker, A. D. Cobb, Bill Zipperer, and Keith Harris; while Delta Upsil- on Kappa took in Alice Blue Man- gum, Millicent Brittian and Caro lyn McClenny. Louis Agresta, “Link” Howard and Earnest Davis were chosen | by Iota Tau Kappa. Helen Yar brough was taken in by Beta ^ Omicron Beta. Alpha Pi Beta issued bids to J.' Vernon Clark, Sal Festa, Worth Coble, Pearce Sen ter and Ed Hicklin along with Hazel Wal ker’s being taken in by Pi Kap pa Tau. j The following were selected by Tau Zeta Phi, Virginia Jefferies, Minnie Belle Fry and Harriet Grant. Taken in by their broth er Fraternity, Kappa Psi Nu, were George Bullock, Charles Mann, Elroy Hooper, Edward But ler and Brevitt Hook. NEW MEMHEKH TAKE OATH AT SOCIETY CANDLELIGHT SERVICE The Panvio Literary Society met Wednesday night in the So ciety Ilall. It was a candlelight service at which twelve new girls took the societv oath as new mem bers. The oath wa.s administered bv the president, Marjorie Hun ter and following this a program was presented by Nora Sumniey. Plans were made for a picnic to be held next Wedne-sday night at the local Scout Cabin. T.his will be the first outing of the year. Ye reporter was asked to write a story concerning the enrollment of the college this year. I did find out that we have one, but I had to contact five people be fore the actual number could be found. There are enrolled at Elon this year 580 students. Quite naturally they do not all come from the same state. At the same time no one seems to know how many states are rep resented here on the campus. Someone did tell me that there were 18 states represented here last year and that it would be safe to say that there is approxi mately the same number this term. Among our fellows are two sets of twins: Evelyn and Emily Har- rel from Burgaw, North Carolina and H. C. and Bobby Hisey of Shenandoah, Va. The Harrell twins have been elected cheer- . leaders for the year. I think the Hisey boys would have been elected to something like that ex- ' cept for the fact that they look so much alike that the cheerers would probably be to confused to yell. In one office I was told that there are, “222 fine young people from Alamance county in school here this year.” I' asked, “Do you know any more peculiarities about the stu dent body?” The answer floored me. “None that would do to print!” SID DELL TO UK HEARD OVER W. IS. II n. ON THURSDAYS 15ill Siddell, Sophomore at Elon College, may 1)C heard Thursday afternoons at 3:00 over W. B. B. 15.
