SPRING FEVER
(By Barbara Humbert)
Have you ever had that ole feel
ing? ‘WTh.en the dorm windows are
all flung open and radios blare forth
from all of them? When a gentle
breeze silently tosses your organdy
curtains and a warm sun creeps in
your window? And there you—in
skirt and sweater wishing you could
Wear a frosh new cotton dress—sit
at your work. Before you are three
books to be read, a term paper to
complete, and a notebook to recopy.
You struggle through the Eng Lit,
cause the class is on Wordsworth
and you may hear an occasional
bird “sing'’ in his poetry—if you
read deep enough. Then you tackle
the trig—^that’s awful ’cause you’d
much rather be counting the loves
of this spring than stupid figures.
The breeze gently mixes the sheets
of your term paper; so, encouraged
by glad voices without, you decide
to do that tomorrow. The note book
can wait too ’cause the sun feels
so warm. After dreaming about the
coming week-end and that special
date with Bib, you slowly thumb
to the assignment in your History
book. You read pages and pages
of History, and, when you look away
for the last time, you have com
pletely and thoroughly learned one
thing: Spring is here, and that ole
fever has got you. Lady!!!

been invited to a supper and a
masked ball for Prince Orlafsky's
by his friend. Dr. Falke, a notary.
Dr. Falke bitterly remembers an
embarrassing jokes played on him by
Eisenstein after a drunken party.
(Falke became so drunk that he
completely passed out. It was a
masked ball and he was dressed as
a bat. Eisenstein left Falke lying
in the street all night. The next
morning Dr. Falke awoke to find
people standing around him jeer
ing. From that time on he was
nick-named The Bat). Dr. Falke
''ow plans his revenge by inviting
Eisenstein to the masked ball, in
tending to have Bosalijid trap him
there. Eisenstein readily agrees to
postpone his trip to prison. After
Eisenstein leaves, Alfred comes
back and sits down to supper in
Eisenstein’s dressing gown. The
prison director comes and by mis
take arrests Alfred, who chivalrous
ly accepts the uncomfortable situa
tion.
Act II opens at Prince Orlofsky’s
villa. Eisenstein is there as Marquis
Renard. Dr. Falke intends to stage
a play called “The Revenge of a
Bat.” The prison director is pres
ent as the Chevalier Chagrin. Rosa
lind, disguised, discovers her hus
band, charms him and gets his
■Watch. She also finds Adele en
joying herself in her mistress’
clothes.
Act m takes place at the prison.
The prison director, still feeling
the effects of the party, is told that
Eisenstein is in cell 12. Adele and
tor (as the Chevalier, of course)
ter friends come to see the direc-
stein ((as the Marquis) also comes
about getting on the stage. Bisen-
to see the director. The girls are
Puti in cell 13. No one knows how
much the other knows. The situa
tion becomes too much for every
body when Eisenstein discovers the
state of affairs between Rosalind
and Alfred. Dr. Falke finally
clears up the whole mess by calling
in Orlofsky and his guests and ex
plaining his little joks. The Bat, he
says, is avenged.

Women of the Week
EUZABETH GTJDGER
You couldn’t stay on Salem’s
campus very long without knowing
Gudger, as she is called by her
friends. She’s that blue-eyed,
peaches - and - cream complexion,
brown-curly-haired heart breaker
from the “Land of the Sky.”
She ranks ace high among the
Strongites because of her pleasing
personality, wonderful disposition,
and, most of all, for her sincerity.
Gudger has many friends, and is al
ways ready to lend a hand to one;
in trouble. She laughs when you
laugh . . . she sings when you sing
. . . she’s down in the dumps when
you’re down in the dumps — but she
will come through every time to
cheer you up.
Gudger has a time and a place
for everything. She is conscientious
about her studies. She enjoys a
good game of bridge after supper,
and is game every time for a John
Payne movie. She likes horseback
riding, swimming, and tennis.
Her favorite boy’s name is Bill
(She has one at Caroline, Davidson,
STATE, and Wake Forest, and also
a few more in IJncle Sam’s services
by other names.)
When Gudger gets excited, her
roommate says she is a regular floo-
flop. She flits around slinging
clothes here and there, and poor
Luanne doesn’t know whether to
catch or dodge. But Luanne takes
it as a grain of salt. She says that
it is impossible to get mad at
Gudger, no matter what she does.
Gudger’s favorite food' is fried
chicken and chocolate pie, and eat
ing is one of her chiefest pastimes.
Occasionally, on Sunday night you’ll
find her haunting the Toddle House
for chocolate pie.
Well, we could go on and on
about Gudger; but I’ll stop by say
ing that she is number one on the
hit parade, not only this week but
always in the Stronghole.
—Music—
bussy’s beautiful composition “En
Bateau.”
Have you ever heard anyone pour
their heart into a song? That is
just what Peggy Eaton does when
she sings, and it gives us a thrill.
SJhe has something a great many mu
sicians do not have. Her rendition
of Wolf’s “Silent Love” was really
a treat.
The piano trembles, shakes, and
pauses for a rest. Has an earth
quake begun? No, it is just Cath-
rine Swinson playing Rachmanin
off’s “Polichinelle.” A splendid
ending to an enjoyable recital.

JANE LOVELACE
Did you ever try to describe a
person who has ai sugar and spice
and everything nice” personality?
One who is so swell that you can’t
express exactly what you mean?
Well, that’s Jane Lovelace . . .
one of the girls that the Freshman
class can proudly boast of, and Hen
rietta, North Carolina’s pride and
joy. She’s a luscious brownette
with dark eyes and clear complex
ion.
Easy going — sincere — under
standing, just a few of her friendly
traits. She is the sort of girl who
can make a hermit feel ashamed of
missing all the good things of the
world.
How to find her? Simply go up
to the familiar third floor of Alice
Clewell and listen. Presently you’ll
hear voices crying, “Don’t stop
now, Jane. Please play some more”;
and then you’ll listen to gay music
of an accordion drifting down the
hall. Following your ears, you’ll
go down the hall until you see girls
surrounding a laughing Jane . . .
begging her to play anything from
“Home on the Range” to “Beal Me
Daddy.” Besides playing the ac-
cordian, Jane is also interested in
voice.
But she isn’t always a light
hearted lassie with nothing ph her
mind except playing accordians, for
she can bo, serious, too. She’s as
smart as a whip and knows how to
do things in just the right way. Be
ing able to keep a cool head in times
of an emergency, brought her the
position of an air raid warden.
And, believe it or not, Jane loves
to write letters . . . especially to
Carolina!
For a real understanding friend,
look up Jane Lovelace . . . Satis
faction guaranteed.

Telegrams, specials, and phone
calls all remind us of the big dance
this week-end. The girls seem
thrilled. LIB BERNHART is more
excited than anyone we’ve seen . . .
yes, it’s Joel. JENNY J. is right
behind her . . . could it be BiU??
Off to Chapel Hill goes GEACHY
wondering frantically what the out
come will be. She’s going with the
president of the “Y”. All of
which reminds us of NORMIE—Da
vidson’s so-called “Y” queen. It
must be wonderful to see the refor
mation day by day . . . kinda’ like
the clay in the potter’s hand.
And off to Chapel Hill—not with
anybody’s “Y” president — goes
P. T. TRAYNHAM. We eaves-drip-
ped further to learn that even CEIL
is contemplating abandoning her
hermit life for a like-wise fling at
K. A. fun . . . just to see that fi
delity doesn’t get her into ruts.
Coming back from the Hill last
week-end were seen two wilted
roses—rose STONE wearing a pea
green skin, and rose MANNING
looking considerably the better for
wear.
Pretty clever are Washburn, Port,
and Lacy. The telegrams seem to
have done the trick. It aU turned
out well.
Also enjoying the Davidson dances
were HELEN McMILLAN, SUE
WILLIS’, WINK WALL, HELEN
THOMAS, and ADAIR EVANS.
From the reports these girls brought
back, it must have been lots of
fun!!
STU had quite a time at the State
Masquerade Ball . . . some disguise
her date, was wearing . . .
KAKA SCHWALBA and Ted
seem to be very serious—at least the
frequent letters indicate this.
SARA HENRY seems to be doing
well at the Med. S’chool . . . and
BOBBY, too. We hope the dance
is good!
Where to spend this' week-end
has been bothering JANE GARROU
quite a bit. Dates can cause a lot
of confusion—can’t they?

ment needn’t worry about support
