SDCKir SLANT/
ATHLETIC BANQUET
Good evening, ladies and gentle
men. This is Hed Tusing speaking
to you from the Soup Bowl at Salem
College. You know, folks, this is a
ibig evening here. I’m speaking to
you from the famous Salem Soup
Bowl in the College dining room
where the Athletic Association is
holding its annual basketball ban
quet. The Bowl 13 packed and jam
med with mighty fine looking girls.
We’ve had a fine program tonight,
first a short address by a visiting
alumnae, Miss Gussie Hersch (Anna
Wray Fogle) who told us about her
athletic career at Salem in 1908.
The ‘ ‘ Campus Cuties, ’ ’ Salem’s sere-
nading sextet, pulled down applause
from the very rim of the bowl with
their close harmony on several col
lege songs. Before their melodious
strains had settled good upon the
ether waves, I was besieged here at
my microphone by two young col-
legiates, Josey and Phiny, who in
sisted upon saying a word to their
folks back home. I hope you pard
oned them, ladies and gentlemen, but
they were all pepped up and looked
rather snittzy in their raccoon coats
and waving pennants. Then, if you
remember, we had a little more form
al opinion of this affair, given
through a prearranged interview
which was really a slice of conversa
tion between Dorothea Baum-Baum,
the society leader, and Cicero Tim
othy Tonage, Jr., the little boy from
the country. However this interview
was interrupted by a country girl
(Mary C. Nelme) who had never seen
a microphone and finally, a little
doubtful of the results, yelled into
mv mike here a greeting to her folks
back on the farm. Then when things
were quiet and settled again, Dr.
Howard E. Eondthaler presented the
cup to Jo Hutchison and Anne John
son, co-captains of this year’s vic
torious Junior team. Finally, Coach
Atkinson arose and after a short ad
dress, revealed the names of those
girls who made varsity—first and
second teams:
Varsity First Team; Couch, cap
tain; Jo Hutchison, A. McNeely,
Sample, McCarty, Wolfe, A. John
son.
Varsity Second Team: Frazier, F.
Martin, Pitzer, Forrest, Spence, J.
McLean.
McNeely, Pitzer and Forrest re
ceived varsity trophies, this being
their first year to make varsity
team. The victorious team in the
B team tournament was also a Junior
group. This is the first year the B
teams have had their separate tour
nament so these girls were the first
to receive individual B team ribbons.
Those receiving them were:
C. Pfohl, Bowen, Willis, Pratt, Skin,
ner, Grautliam, Grier, Powell, Mc
Nair, Nelme, Thomas, Fulton.
Coach Atkinson took this oppor
tunity to make other awards too;
letters, stars, sweaters, and the first
blazers to be aw-arded at Salem were
presented as follows:
Letters: Peggy Bowen, Winston-
Salem; Anne Johnson, Mayodan;
Jane Kirk, Winston-Salem; Jane Mc
Lean, Washington, N. C.; Annette
McXeely, Mooresville, N. C.; Felicia
Martin, Mayodan, N. C.; Elizabeth
Piper, Baltimore, Md.; Caroline
Pfohl, Winston-Salem.
Stars: Josephine Hutchison, Win
ston-Salem; Evelyn McCarty, Fort
Pierce, Fla.; Annette McNeely,
Mooresville, N. C.
Sweaters: Charlotte King, Taun
ton, Mass.; Jean Knox, Taunton,
Mass.
Blazer: Willena Couch, Winston-
Salem; Louise Frazier, Badin; N. C.;
Cornelia Wolfe, Charlotte, N. C.;
Eloise Sample, Ft. Pierce, Fla.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this has
been a gay evening, but I see my
time is up, so I’ll return you to . . .

PERSONALITIES
MARY'worthy'
SPENCE
Poor Mary Worthy Spence com
plains that she has no private life.
That’s what happens to our Salem
celebration. She is the new I. K. S.
president, you know. Since this is a
sports column, we ’11 see what we can
dig out of Mary Worthy’s past life
in the field of sports.
She loves all sports, basketball in
particular. Last year when she made
the varsity, she was so thrilled, ex
cited and astonished that she could
hardly walk up to get her pin. She
didn’t go out for field hockey this
year, but nevertheless she does like
it. Her freshman year, when she
was first initiated into the sport, she
had a little trouble. Finding a pair
of shin guards, undaunted at never
seeing their like before, she prompt
ly put them on her arms and went
merrily down to practice. She will
never hear the end of that boner.
She likes swimming and riding.
Whenever she feels let down, riding
helps her spirits up again. She used
to be scared of horses, but not now.
It thrills her to watch a graceful
tennis player.
When she was young, she couldn’t
wait to grow up big enough to play
football. Now she has to be prac
tical and leaves that sort of thing to
other people.
Training rules mean very little to
Mary Worthy until about eight hours
before a game; then she follows the
rules religiously.
Her hobby, if it might be consid
ered such, is eating and sleeping too.
Everyone, she believes, should have
twelve hours of sleep a day. She
believes in following her own ideas,
so has a little trouble rising and
waking.
She likes to chew gum but real
izes she can’t do it in public. She
can’t chew like a lady—she pops it.
Her motto is, “If you can’t be
beautiful, you might as well be com
fortable. ’ ’
She hates people who talk in back
of her at a movie. She dislikes all
bossing around, though she don’t
mind constructive criticism. High
heel shoes are all right, as long as
they aren’t on her feet. She enjoys
reading small town newspapers. The
trite expressions used amuse her:
“The groom is a man of sterling
quality” and “the bride has a host
of friends throughout the state.”
The quality she admires most is
sincerity. She likes to meet new
people.
If education meant concentrating
on only one or two things at a time,
she would enjoy the process much
more.
Her last word about her life story
is that she has had a very pleasant,
if not exciting, life so far.
1938 FIGURES AND
FASHIONS
CAROLINA GIRLS HAVE
A FENCING TEAM
The University of North Carolina
now boasts a fencing team—believed
to be the first in the South at a
co-educational school.
The coaches, Bloom and Aleskov-
sky, say the girls learn much faster
than the men. The coaches are
quoted as saying “The girls’ ment
al reactions are quicker. Their en
thusiasm runs much higher. They
are better equipped physically.”
The girls have not started the
epee and sabre fighting, for the foil
is the fundamental weapon in fenc
ing. It takes a year or more to
become a good foil fencer.

Many a poor fish falls for a per
manent wave, but it surfs them right.
Have you always worried about a
too small waistline? Well here’s good
news for you and encouragement for
the girl with the slightly stout waist,
This year the good old Gibson Girl,
hour-glass figure is going to be popu
lar. Your bust and hips should have
the same measurement, but your
waist should be ten inches smaller
than the bust and hip measurement.
Ann Delafield, New York exponent
of good figures, says there is one im
portant thing to do to make the
waist-line slender. That is exercis
ing to pull the ribs away from the
hips, and side-stretehing is the thing.
We maintain, however, that it is
next to impossible, especially for
college girls, to change one’s figure
with the yearly fashions for figures.
But for you tiny-waisted numbers,
this news should be satisfactory, and
for you ambitious sisters who can
find time to exercise, (try volleyball),
this should be an example of
“hope springs eternal ...”
As for Spring outfits, fashion ex
perts advise buying your new Spring
suit now. A suit can be worn' for
sport occasions if you use oxfords,
anklets, straw sailor hats, or the
same suit can be made the most fem
inine part of your wardrobe by using
a blouse with a frilly jabot, a tri-
curne with veil, colored swede gloves,
and pumps instead of oxfords. Be
sides all this, the same suit will come
in handy for campus wear next year.
If you get a navy or a dark tan,
strictly tailored suit, you may make
it 1he basis of your next fall’s
’’round the campus” wardrobe.
Several new spring suits have been
noticed on the campus already. These
girls are smart, take a hint from
them and buy your suits early, you’ll
be needing them very soon. I saw a
Robin yesterday.
DON BUDGE THINKS
HELEN MOODY SET
FOR NET STARDOM
Don Budge, national amateur ten
nis champion, thinks Helen Wills
Moody is ready for an attempt to
win her eighth Wimbledon champ
ionship.
“Pop” Fuller, the coach who
started Mrs. Moody toward seven
American and seven Wimbleton
championships says she is not.
In a series of exhibitions Budge
defeated Frank Kovaci, 0-2, 6-4, and
Mrs. Moody paired with Kovacs, lost
to Margaret Osborn and Margaret
Osborne, Gene Mako, 6-4, 6-3.
The coach said particularly notice
able was Mrs. Moody’s loss of speed
and less accurate judgment of tim
ing and distance.
But in the opinion of Mr. Budge,
Mrs. Moody is “wonderful.” “She
looks great,” Budge said. “Three
weeks and she will beat any of them.
She probably could do it right now. ’ ’
Mrs. Moody said she felt “per
fect,” and was not bothered by the
back injury which took her out of
the competition from 1933 to 1935.
She is now making plans to leave
California for Europe in May.

SHOPPE
The Ideal
The first and most important rule
is to always eat between meals. Nev
er turn down an invitation to go to
the drug store, for instance, when
you are studying in the library and
someone says, “Let’s go to yie
drug,” just say to yourself, “I know
I ought to study for that test tomor
row, but I mus consider my figure. ’ ’
And always spend at least 15c or 20c.
An ice cream cone, hershey bar and
duoghnuts, or chocolate sundae and
potato chips might do. The rule to
remember is always to eat two or
three helpings of everything at the
table. (Four would be better if you
can eat fast, and can persuade the
maids not to throw you out). And es
pecially such things as mashed pota.
toes, rolls, butter chocolate eclairs,
cakes and sandwiches. Even though
you are full and feel as if you never
want anything to eat again, think
of your last summer’s dresses, and
eat one more chocolate eclair so that
last year’s clothes will be sure to
fit. We can’t take any chances!
Another good thing to remember
in losing weight is to always eat be
fore you go to bed at night. Eat at
least three or four sandwiches or hot
dogs, and as many boxes of crackers
and bars of candy as you can hold,
then go to bed without taking any
exercise. (No, the Wee Blue Inn and
“Y.” Store are not paying me for
this).
Exercise is never a good idea. If
you jwssibly can, even though it
means pntting off studying or seeing
a show, snatch an hour or two of
sleep after lunch, and when you are
going to the show and feel tempted
to walk, suppress your desire and
take a taxi.
Miss Turlington; “I hear you are
having trouble learning to truck?”
Mr. Campbell.
Mr. Campbell: “ WeU, if you would
just diagram and label it, I wouldn’t
have any trouble with it at all.”
