With the advent of spring, in
terest in outdoor sports has been
revived w^h decided entliusiasnj.
More than enough for three soft
ball teams have been practicing
every afternoon from four to fiv3
o’clock, and there seems to be quite
a bit of talent. Games between
classes have not been scheduled yet,
but will be played. The Juniors,
more than any other class, have
shown interest and seem to be sure
of winning the tournament. The
Freshman, Sophomores, and Seniors
will have to look to exert a lot of
effort to defeat them.
Xow from tlie serious to the sub
lime and not in ridicule.—for
every player’s effort are admirable.
there are a few players who
have forgotten how to catch a ball.
Betty Withers, testing a new
method, tried to catch with her ears,
but found the experiment lament-
aVde. Nell Denning, who is an ex
cellent player, after hitting the ball,
invariably throw.s the bat directly
in the catchers ptomach. We have
heard through the grapevine that
reprisals sliall be taken. Jennie
Jenkins found soft-ball a very em-
barrasing game; because, as she was
playing in a snazzy two-piece bath
ing suit, one of the straps broke.
Martha Humbert and the rest of the
people that play in the outfield do
hand stands during the entire game;
and, if anyone happens to hit a ball
—WEEKS—
veals his sparkling sense of humor
telligently on any subject, and often
and his quick wit. He speaks in-
uaes his long, slender hands to il
lustrate or drive home a point. Fre
quently he brings in amusing anec
dotes from his various experiences
in his life, that makes his conver
sation vivid and alive.
•Just as fascinating as the man is
his life. He was born in Elizabeth,
Now Jersey, and studied at three
universities—Cornell from 1915 to
1917, Harvard in 1922, and Cam
bridge University, England, where
he did graduate work. Mr. Weeks
began his career as a manuscript
reader and book salesman with
Horace Liveright, Inc. in New York
City. After a four-year apprentice
ship he was made editor of the At
lantic Monthly Press, a position he
held until he became editor of the
Atlantic in 1938. In the last World
War, Mr. Weeks was in the field
service with the French army and
also an ambulance driver in the
U. S. army. ■ He had the distinction
of receiving two honors, the Volun
teers medal and the Croix de Guerre.
I'liis versatile man — a friend of
all— "’l>o stands firm in his con
victions and has an unlimited ca
pacity of industry and enthusiasm,
will live l*ng in our memories, as
one of the outstanding persons' to
ever visit Salem campus.
that far, they use their feet to make
the catch. However, the last straw
is that Ann Hobson made a run—
there’s always hope for those of you
who don’t think you can play.
—STUNTS—
Lights go on again . . . mumbles
and yea’s and nays are heard. Out
of the clear, three cleaning women
(Ellen Hearne,- Mary Formy Duval
and Peggy Nimocks) stroll' in. Very
broadcast of the series by the
unexpectedly and much to their as
tonishment they discover that the
Chapel is packed and jainmed even
though it is supposed to be their
night to clean. The Soph’s, stunt
gets under way. The maids holler
to and fro, finally get cut off by the
monotoned announcer, Kathleen Phil
ips, who pleads with them to scram
in order that the show might go on.
The melodrama opens with a song
sung by Jane Frazier . . . “Dia
monds or Eoscs or Which did the
Maiden Choose”. Joyce Wooton
minus the front teeth, plus pigtails
and freckles, is the heroine, Esma-
relda, in distress. Geneveive Frasier
with a heard and a “chaw in each
cheek” is the Pappy; and Margaret
Bullock, with whip in one hand and
Fsmarelda in the other, is Squire
Gotrocks, the villian. Barbara Hum
bert is the hero, Marmaduke True-
heart, who had only^ a wilted rose
to offer Esmarelda as a token of
his undying love in contrast to the
gold and diamonds his competitor
offer. Neither the rose or the dia
monds, however, win the fair mai
den’s hand . . ; she falls off stage
for a sailor (Lib Morrison).
lu not less than five minutes, a
unique baseball bame is portrayed
by the Juniors. It is announced by
Nancy Stone, dressed in a black
creation and diamonds and fans and
script. Ann McKeeley (Katherine
Manning) dressed as a female ex
pert in the catching position, very
cleverly manages to follow the beam
and catch the amazing balls that
are pitched by the renouned pitcher,
Gracie Lowrance (Sjie Willis) . . .
balls like there ain’t never been
pitched before . . . curve, slow, fast,
and curlyque balls. The animated
(?) grandstand consists of about
twelve characters all costumed in
most ridiculous fashion. Seville,
dressed as the pasty-faced cheer
leader in checked knee pants and
plaid socks, stole the show.
The baseball game is over and the
dignified Seniors take a hand to
bring us a typical night in “Bitty’s
Bottom”. The boy in khaki (Casse
role) loving the “girl in lace”
(Cootie), on the couch, in front of
the fire is stopped by Miss Lawrence
(Coco ^McKenzie), because things
like that are C-O-M-M-O-N! This
starts the night rolling . . . then,
the bridge fiends enter for the night
ly round, the Chemistry fiend in the
drop-bottom P.J’s (Ceil) comes in
and plops on the floor to experiment
with HaO, and last come the ever
lasting swing sessions by J. Garrou
and J. Cavenaugh. While everyone is
looking at the various fiends Sarah
Henry bravely escorts a drunk
victim to the Stee gee chamber of
horror. With the Senior stunt clos
ing, stunt night too is closing for
1943.
Lights again go out, judges sneak
out and the stunts are discussed
pro and con . . . lights come on
again and Barbara Hawkins an
nounced the winner. The Sophisti
cated Sophomores have done some
thing besides break rules . . . for
they have won the 1943 Stunt night
with their melodrama . . . Diamonds
or Roses, or Which Did the Maiden
Choose?
