SWIMMING MEET By Edna Lindsey The last official swimming meet of the school year 1928-29 was held out in the pool the other day—just any day—that last day that the ice melts. “Whoopee” cried the Senior eleven as they dove into the pool, pigskin under arm, breaking the ice in a secluded corner, where the sun shine had not worked its detriment. And “whoopee” they all cried again as the husky Juniors were seen to arise over the horizon and advance rapidly on the already trembling little Seniors. Next the boldest of the Sophomores appeared—boldest because they dared to venture forth into that water. And lastly the Freshmen, with Ivory soap securely tucked in their pockets, jumped into the pool from the second floor win dows of Alice Clewell Building— they jumped because they were afraid to dive from that height. Just then the whistle blew and everyone was forced to climb out and wait for the announcement of events. “Side stroke for form,” fea turing Rose Frasier was the first victory marked upon the score board. The back stroke and overarm stroke for form came next and were won by Ruth Marsden and Mary Miller Falkener, respectively. Then the dives were called and were success fully xecuted and won by the fol lowing: Edna Lindsey, high dive (of course!); Estie Lee Clore—jack knife; Louise Swaim, swan; Mary Johnson, half turn; Nancy Courtney, running front; and Rebecca Piatt, standing front. (So far the Seniors were ahead by the thickness of a coat of paint and everyone was worried). Katherine McCallie and Beulah Zachary, cheer leaders, ex horted the troops of underclassmen to reinforced yelling; and Brownie Peacock vainly encouraged thiC Sen iors. The next event was the plunge which was won by Virginia Long— she suddenly became sleepy and stretched across the pool in one stroke. The dashes came next on the program and every speed race was won by Mary Norris—we all knew that she was fast but her speed in swimming is unexcelled. The features came after the dashes. Anna Holderness didn’t even get her; balloon damp and Mary Norris read the newspaper floating on her back for half an hour. ' The class relay was tied between the Sophomores and Seniors and the upperclassmen being such good sports and being so kind at heart gave in to the tiny sisters. This event concluded the meet and the entrants all cried “Whoa” simultan eously and dashed in to the warm- showers shaking like a leaf on a TENNIS All of tlie tennis semi-finals have been played, and as a result of the elimination process the singles, championship now lies between Martha Delaney and Leonora Rig- gan. The tournament began with forty contestants. On Tuesday aft-, ernoon the final match will bei play ed. Spectators are cordially invited. HORSES The Horse Show which is to be' given at the Fair Grounds this aft ernoon, under the auspices of the Winston-Salem Junior League Guild, will be no mean event. The Guild is establishing a precedent. Expert riders and fine horses from several of the Southern States have journeyed hither to participate; you see it is not to be a small affair, but a Southern Horse Show, the repetition of which, annually, will be an important occasion in fashion able sporting circles. Perhaps it would interest you to know that one of the feature stunts of the afternoon will be a high jump over an automobile. A numr her of trained army horses have been imported here to display their gaits and their tricks. We should feel especially privi leged that a cup is offered exclu,- sively for Salem entrants. Wlio’ll bring back the trophy— Doris Shirley? Betsy Ross? Leo Wilder? Margaret Sells? Eleanor Willingham? Lillian Tucker? Anna Preston? Edith Kirkland? The Song of the Cardinal It was a little shaded glen hidden under great oaks in the heart of, the mountains. The warm sun of a perfect Indian summer slipped through the red and gold leaves to splatter on the level ground where a wigwam shoidd be standing, and to reve'al diamonds in tlie water of a sparkling stream running over a rocky bed. Surely a close search would disclose the clay water jug ' of an Indian squaw and a call would certainly bring an answer from some ghostly warrior. Suddenly from somewhere, there came a melo dy. Such a melody, that familiar air here miles from civilization. It came nearer. Now it was a clear whistle, four notes repeated again and again, a silence and—then from far away it carae again. Was it an echo? No, an answer, for at once it sang again overliead, and ^ loked up just in time, to see 4 flash of red winging toward the echo. Then, I remPmbered. It wa| “the song of the Cardinal.” ! DAWN I glimpsed the ai^tist through His picture from afar, His picture through a mist Of rose and green and molten gold. A faint and pulsing glow In silence soon to break ■ Into a glimmering light. ’Twas but a glimpse. The Artist drew a silken curtain then And hid His picture’s wondrous beauty from my sight. —Margaret Richardson. , “Let us,” said the aldermen, “put our heads together and make a con crete road.” Here and There “What’s memory but the ash that; chokes our fires that have begun to' sink? And ttrey’ve" a dizzy, ever-! lasting fire.” “Impetuous heart, be still, be still Your sorrowful love can never be told. Cover it up with a lovely tune. ^ He who could bend all things to His' will Has covered the door of the infinite fold With the pale stars and the wan dering moon.” “For life moves out of a red flare of, dreams Into a common light of common hours Until old age brings the red flare again.” * * * "...
