SALEM’S
EMMA BROWN
GRANTHAM
Emma Brown Qrantham is the girl
who attends all important functions
armed with that deadly instrument
of torture, a camera. She often feels
when she’s playing hockey that that
would be a good time to get some ac
tion pictures. Playing goal guard
can be quite montonous.
She likes to play basketball and
volley iball, in fact she likes all the
sports Salem offers and more besides.
Her tennis is better than average
and .>ihe can swim. One of her am
bitions is to learn to dive. Mountain
climbing is something she enjoys do
ing but she would rather ride horse
back. You see animals, and in par
ticular horses and dogs, are her best
friends. Nothing could be better
than owning a horse and at least one
dog and living in a small home in
the country near water and mount-
tains. Then she could enjoy fishing
too.
We have already mentioned one of
her hobbies, she seems to have quite
a few. ghe likes to spend her spare
time procrastinating for one thing.
She used to collect stamps, but now
she collects poetry and jingles.
Browning and Shelley are her fav
orite poets. We heai Miss Grantham
herself indulges now and then in
writing a poem or two. She has two
scrap books which sound very inter
esting. In one .book she collects pic
tures of famous people, in the other,
landscapes and the other pictures of
animals.
You might thin]^ Emma grown
was a music student, she likes music
so much. “The Blue Danube” and
“Tales from Vienna Woods” are her
favorite songs. She seems to like
blue whether in songs, cars, or just
as a color. Lawrence Tibbett’s sing
ing charms her at any time of the
day, but her roommate’s doesn’t at
all.
She is quite independent in the
clothes she wears, she hates sissy
things, high heels, and hats, though
she loves pants.
A diet of milk, apples, deviled
crabs, steak and mushrooms, and any
kind of hot bread would keep her
happy almost indefinitely.
She loves to travel. She wants to
go to iCalifomia and Australia.
Trains lull her to sleep and she al
ways has wanted to travel by boat.
Her even temper and unselfish
spirit make her a great asset to the
galem campus.
“I’ve been thinking it over,” said
the husband, “and I’ve decided to
agree with you.”
“That won’t do you any good,”
said his wife. “I’ve changed my
mind. ’ ’
VOLLEY BALL
‘‘ Smack it gal, smack it! Use both
hands! Jump! It won’t hurt you!
Help it over!” These words with
illustrative gestures are heard fre
quently in the gym now. Perhaps
you’ve learned by now that we-re
playing volley ball. But I ’11 bet you
don’t know why. This back-straight
ening, tummy- flattening exercise
gets our fair lassies in trim for those
sweltering days on the tennis courts
—• and incidentally, for the dance
floor.
You fellows who think that this is
a sissy’s game — just come down
and we’ll show you. It takes the
power behind a Grantham serve to
get that ball over the net. And it
takes the quickness of a Baynes to
knock it back over. Add to these
the squeals of Holbrook to make the
game complete.
THEY SAY THAT
IT IS SPRING WITH THE
BIG LEAGUE BASE-
BALL CLUB
The annual spring scramble of the
sixteen big league ball clubs is un
der way with the Chicago Cubs, St.
Louis Browns and Detroit Tigers set
ting the pace.
Each of the three teams has a clean
record, but there are weakening
forces. The Cubs have played only
three times and the Tigers but once,
while the Browns are enjoying the
rare atmosphere of first place on the
strength of four victories, three of
them scored over Tulsa of the Texas
League and one over a semi-pro out
fit.
The New York Giants are second.
They have won all but one of their
eight games and have scored seventy-
six runs, more than any other Na
tional League team. The Cincinnati
Reds are third with five victories and
one defeat.
The Giants and Reds have had a
great success with National League
teams. Each club has won all three
of its games against National League
teams and the Giants have also taken
three out of four from American
League rivals.
The Philadelphia Athletics have
played the most games (11), scored
the most rung (88), and had the most
runs scored against them (101). They
have won only six of their games.
The New York Yankees and the
Washington Senators are tied for
fourth place.

INTRODUCING A
RURAUSTIC SPORT
at
What’s this I hear about a horse
shoe tournamentt How crude! Do
Salem girls really pitch horseshoes t
Yes, Salem girls really do
least, some of them. Of course those
fastidious ones still cling to their
basketball, hockey, and knitting, but
those few, more ruralistic, find that
in the Spring — — —. And
this accounts for the iron stobs you
stumbled over just outside the
“Hut” in your hurry to get to
Gym — pardon me, “Physical Educa
tion Class — on time, and those aw
ful “clangs” so disturbing to Bit
ting’s afternoon nappers.
But what about the tournament?
when? where? I’m not fastidious
may I join. I can’t play, ibnt I’ll
try anything once. If you’re no
good, you’ll be out after the first go
'round anyway. So get a partner —
or be snootie and play by yrouself —
or both —' and sign up on the near
esti and moat cionvenient bull^tim
board.
Horseshoe pitching — Salem’s la
test and most exciting sport! prac
tice up a bit, who knows, you may be
Salem’s future horseshoe champion!
Here is the horseshoe information
you’ve been waiting for: The tour
nament begins next week and will
continue until spring holidays
Against whom you or you and your
partner are to pitch will be posted
the first of the week on the bulletini
board at entrance to the diiiiing
room.
All those who wish to participate
must sign up on one of the bulletin
boards by Saturday night. You can^t
miss the signs; they are big notices
shouting SIGN UP NOW! Notice
the now and take the hint.
Mummy, is it correct to call a
man born in Poland a Pole?”
“Of course, my dear.”
“Then I suppose a man born in
Holland is a Hole.”
Teacher; “Johnny, take this sen
tence, ‘I led the cow from the pas
ture.’ What mood?”
Johnny: “The cow, ma’am.”
“Why should you ride a mule if
you wish to be rich?”
“Because you are no sooner on
than you are better off.”
If flies are flies because they fly,
And fleas are fleas because they flee,
Then bees are bees because they be.

NOTICE
Thanks to somebody, the grass has
been cut down on the hockey field
and thereabouts and it is now pos
sible to find your golf balls if you
want to go down and practice your
swings. Also, thanks to that same
somebody, at last, the tennis courts
are beginning to be worked on. Now
that spring is here we get tennis and
golf in our systems, and we simply
have to have grounds and our courts
ready for us to use. It won’t be long
we hope, until the tennis courts will
be ready for use so get out the racket
and balls and get ready — maybe you
will win the singles championship.
SKIING IS NEW
TROPICAL FAD
Skiing hae arrived in subtropical
Hawaii. The bachelor members of
the Hawaii gki Club will admit only
women into the club who can survive
the two-day hike to the 7,000 foot
level on Mauna Kea, an extinct vol
cano.
A heavy snow fall on Mauna Kea,
which rises 14,00 feet above the is
land Hilo’s palm-fringed:shores had
promoted, several expeditions this
year to skiing grounds, which are
said to be excellent.
There are no ski “trains,” just an
automobile road to the mountain
trail. Hikers usually spend the night
at a national park roadhouse, con
tinuing the next day.
Mauna Kea has a snow mantle un
til June each year, so the skiing sea
son will continue for several weeks,
yet.
