SALEM GIRLS ATTEND BLUE RIDGE CONFERENCE (Continued From Page One) Hill, and Dr. Smart of Emory Uni versity, for students who desired a more thorough and leisurely study of Jesus, His life. His teachings, and records about him, the Rev. Don Schooler and Mrs. Schooler led study groups and seminars in the after noon on Records of the Life of Jesus. The conference, however, was not all work and no play. Mr. Eugene Durham of Cornell University di rected a recreational program which included tennis, baseball, volley ball, swimming, boating, riding, hiking, folk singing and folk dancing and barn dancing. The social life formed a notable part of the conference. The program of the day began with Reveille at 7:00 followed by breakfast at 7:15 and Dr. Poteat’s Bible Study from 8:15 to 9:00. The seminars met from 9:00 until 11:00 and following this was association hour from 11:30 to 12:30. Lunch was at one and the afternoon free for recreation. Dinner at 6:00 was fol lowed by step-swinging, evening wor ship, and the platform address of the day. The natural beauty of Blue-Ridge as well as the inspiration of the leaders served as a strong incentive to the delegatee. year), she was selected by the stu dent body to be secretary of Stu dent Government. This year as president of the dignified seniors she is eligible for the last time to serve on the council. Since the name Josephine is made up of too many syllables for every day use, our little Miss is better known as Jo. It remains a mystery with so many desireable and com- how one so small can be endowed mendable traits. The pleasing com bination of her sweet smile and friendly disposition acts like a mag net on those she is around — draw ing their sunny side to the surface. She is another one of Salem’s all- around girls. Ancient Rackets BEAUTEOUS BABES IN THE MAKING Before long (in the next eight months anyway), there are going to be some beauteous babes on second floor in Clewell — not that there are no beautiful ones there already, but “Madame Sylvia of Hollywood” is pulling (and I mean pulling and stretching), for some who are in the exercising now. Armed with explicit instructions of Sylvia, Martha McNair, Mary Turner Willis, Julia Preston and May Thomas started kicking and ney, waiter,” called the peeved rolling every night “in quest of customer, “I’ve found a tack in this beauty.” (They started the day, doughnut.” Miss At. took measurements). Their w^^y the ambitious little thing,” wonder-working routines were said replied the waiter, “it must think to cure anything from “desk chair |it’s a tire, spread” to athletes’ foot, if done faithfully. The Y. room was chosen as the place, and 10 to 10:30 P. M. the time for these classes. Others de cided to take off their premature Dr. Ephraim A. Speiser, director of the American Schools of Oriental Research in Bagdad and graduate professor of Semitics at the Uni versity of Pennsylvania, holding one of the cuneiform texts he has trans lated. It is the earliest known de tailed court record of the trial of a racketeering public omcial, and tells of the trial of a mayor in Meso potamia for bribe taking, tax graft and intimidation. His gang was al so accused of kidnapings. This and other tablets were dug up at an cient Nuzi by the late Prof. Edward Chiera. O “I believe I am a little bettor, doc tor, but I am still short of breath.” Doctor: “I can stop that complete ly after a few more treatments.” This retort was furnished by an in structor of a western school to the Englishman’s boast ‘ * The sun never sets on British soil.” The professor said, “Even the good Lord wouldn’t trust an Englishman in the dark.” To college, to college. To get a diploma. Home again, home again, Still in a coma. “What dance do you liket” ‘ ‘ Tango. ’ ’ “You’re welcome.’’ “What does a snake strike witht” “Fangs.” ‘ ‘ ’re welcome. ’ ’ “Old Ladies’ Bumps,” or add a few calves to their legs, so the classes grew. Now, at the sound of the 10 o’clock bell, the Charter members of the Salem Exercise Olub, as well as its new additions: Peggy Rogers, Tillie Hines, Frances Turnage, Alice Ilorsefield, Dot Burnette and Mary Loe Salley, all dash to the Y. room, to roll and scramble on the floor. To the onlooker (and many are at tracted by the sight of ten dignified Sophomores ‘ ‘ hitching ’ ’ themselves across the rug), the routines seem amusing but unorganized and in effective, yet every jerk has its own special duty. Maybe the results you’ve noticed are the same that I have. The club, to a man, limps up steps groaning loudly about sore muscles. But just have faith. This club may produce a Claudette Colbert yet! Wins Academy of Design Award “'^RAGEDY,” by Hobart Nichols of Bronxville, N. Y., won the Altman prize of $1,000 for a landscape by an American-born artist and was among the exhibits shown at the one hundred and ninth annua] sxhibition of the National Academy of Design in New York. NEW CALL-DOWN SYSTEM Instead of going around with dark circles down to our chins, and eyes that we can hardly hold open, we now have fresh faces and shining eyes, all due to our new call-down system, which is really some system! When the old girls came back and read the rules and regulations on the back of the doors, there were many groans and cries. “How can we ever get our work done by eleven-thirty! ’ ’ and we ’11 never get our lights out by then!” but strange as it may seem, the plan is working, and I think we all like it. We may not realize it, but we all feel lots better when we get up in the morning after eight hours of sleep, instead of six or seven. And it certainly is a help to vho«e who want to study, to have it quiet dur ing “quiet hour,” instead of noii^ with talk and radios . I think on the whole, that this system is beneficial to us all, and that we should all co operate to keep it so. PLACES TO AVOID The Motorist — Blowout, Idaho. The Pessimist — Joy, Ark.

Boots Norman went down to Ral eigh for the State-Davidaon game and incidentally to see Ed. Is she still a loyal supporter of State? I wonder! Georgin Goodson trucked back to Duke to see her Alma Mater play Colgate. She ought to be pleased w^ith the results of that game. “Snookie” Hutcherson, Ella Og- burn, and Llewellen Davis, accom panied by Snookie’s sister Maud, also went to the Duke-Oolgate game. Sara Ingram went to South Hill for the week-end. Katherine Sissell went to Charlotte, but not for any business reasons. Incidentally, ahe went through Dav idson. Martha Coons was excited over go ing to the Duke-Colgate game, but not nearly as much as getting that swell letter from Davidson. Helen McArthur hit both State and Carolina last week-end. We can hardly blame her for going to the “hill” after that game. Anna Wray Fogle, Peggy Bowen, and Mary Louise Siewers are still hoarse from cheering Duke (or was it Colgatet) Sara Easterling, to be different, went over to High Point to a dinner party Saturday night.
