TWO ONE ACT PLAYS
TO BE REPEATED
Thursday night, October 21, mem
bers of the dramatic club will re^
peat “White Iris”, a one-act play
which tliey gave last year. This play
will be given in the' Old Chapel for
the freshi«eu and other new stu
dents who are interested in drama
tics.
The setting of “White Iris” is in
the living i^om. of Jessamy (Vawter
Steele) and Marcia Doone (Edith
Longest) at the close of the 39th
century. Jessamy is an invalid who
has been cared for during the ]rdst
five yc^rs by her sister^ Marcia.
Lucy (iSeuora Lindsey) is their
cousin, who frequently pops in to
visit them. Dorcas (Margaret Bul
lock), their loyal colored maid,
makes tlie drama more intense by
her comic actions.
At a later date? “The Little Pri
son”, another one-act play, will bo
repeated. “The Little Prison” takes
place in a stalled elavator of a de
partment store. Daisy (Sara Merrit),
th« elavator girl is more or less
indifferent to the entire affair in
contrast with the very upset actions
of Mrs. Richardson (Mary Formy-
Duval), a wealthy patron of the
story. Pearl (Anne Caldwell), the
ribbon clerk, Miss Blanche Bundy
(Betsy Stafford), a ntnvs reporter,
and Miss Ellison (Mary Miller), the
manager of the store all have and
express, quite frequently, their own
reasons for wanting to be out of
the stalled elevator. The entire sit
uation produces a very humorous and
interesting play.
TRADITIONS
(Continued From Page One)
hours doing will walk away with
first prize in that exhibit—if your
date doesn’t walk away with it
first. (We still don’t know which
is the way to a man’t heart—through
his stomach or his eycfs—but we do
know they always fall for the pretty
things and not always for the
‘ ■' good” things—things sometimes
referred to as women).
If you are a Casino fan, but
won’t dare admit it, there will be
a side show at the Fair that no
one will think worse of you for
seeing. In the course of ^he night
there will be two x>erformances of
this exotic drama—a show that will
make “Pistol-Packing Mama” an
immortal, unforgettable character.
And what fair would be complete
without frefaks? Did you know
there are freaks on Salem College
Campus t (Please use an element
of discretion in replying). At the
Campus Fair, however, all the freaks
will be on display—to no one’s em
barrassment—people who can hold
fire in their bare hands and breath
under water. We even have fac
ulty members who can perform such
daring feats.
An expert j>almist will be on hand
to foretell your future—a celebrated
artist, for a small charge, will paint
a caricature of you. Now is
your chance to face those realities of
life you’ve been neglecting.
“Hot dogs!”—a Campus Fair!”

MUSIC NOTES

initial meeting 'of the Reynolds High
School Parent-Teacher Association

of three numbers was his own
composition, “Cpokie Jar” inspired
by a poster at a USO center.
Frank Carter Campbell, one of
Salem’s few alumni, has accepted a
position as musicologist with the
Library of Congress in Washington.
Laura Emily Pitts, graduate of
1937 and accompanist last year in
tlie School of Music, is now a Rec
reation worker with the Red Cross
and stationed at the Norfolk Naval
Hospital.
Margaret Leinbach, 1943 graduate,

the Army Music School there, will
be visiting in the city next week.
A meeting of the music faculty
will be held in the Dean’s studio
Monday at five o’clock to discuss
plans for recitals and future music
events.
BLUE RIBBONS AFLOAT
To make the Campus Fair on
October 23 more like a Country
Fair, there are to be two modified
exhibits—an “animal” contest, and
a handw^ork exhibit. Ribbons will be
awarded by the judges during the
fair.
The “animal” show will include
all campus pets and stuffed toys,
any size, shape, or color; originality
is the goal! The handwork exhibit
is to show knitting and needle-point
done by the students. All entries
(plus a five-cent exhibit free for
the pet show) should be given to
Snookie Willis early in the week.

Sports Rambling
Imagine jny surprise when I walk
ed calmly down to the gym yester
day afternoon and was viciously con
fronted by a galloping mass of hu
manity brandishing hockey sticks
like fighting Irishmen. Imagine my
further surprise when I realized it
was an upperclassman completely
rigged from shin guards to grinning
smiles.
It was obvious that afternoon
hockey classes had begun from the
“these shin guards bother me” ex
pressions of the freshmen who were
undauntedly patting balls around.
Lato'r I found out that by the end
of next week, when golf is “out for
the season,” hockey will begin in
the morning classes.
After hanging around awhile, some
more dope got to me. The tennis
tournament for the freshmen, which
so far has interested'only six so far,
will be closed for entrance next Wed
nesday. It actually seems a pity
that out of a hundred and eight
freshmen, there is only five and a
half percent of the class that can
handle a tenuis raquet.
In case some of you need a little
encouragement, remember that the
sooner you get started in sports, the
sooner you can accumulate enough
points for a monogram (the winner
of this tournament gets four points;
semi-final players get two points;
all who enter get one point).
And in closing, Salemites, I should
like to again remind you that we
could have a Riding Club.
‘OPEN BOOK” CUTS SYSTEM
Now, we can stop puzzling over
how many cuts we have taken,
finding too late that we have tak
en all we have! The “open
book” system will in the future
state our cases very plainly.
If you wish to know how many
cuts you have taken, consult the
cuts book in Miss McNeely’s of
fice. This book will be available
only on Wednesdays, and the
cuts recorded on each Wednesday
have accumulated only through
the preceding Saturday.

by the World Student Service Fund.
Witli the money collected, books and
other supplies are sent to students
all over the world, so that they, too,
may have the oppurtunity to make
this world a better place to live in.
In conclusin he added that only by
education, and the freedom of
thought that is so priceless in this
war torn world can a true peace
be won?

and down the hall, praising the Soph
omores, jumping on the beds, crawl
ing under the beds,* singing and'
dancing, and a few other minor de
tails!
Came the dawn. And we were
gone! Generally, downstairs to
make up the beds, recite poetry, go
to the P. O., serve the Sophomore’s
breakfasts, and a few other various
and sundry little items!
The whole Freshman class was
most attractive Thursday morning!
With each individual’s hair parted
in the middle, no make-up on, and
carrying a suitcase full of books in
one hand, and a glass of water in
the other, we trekked to class. Once
in class, we invariably had to sing
“Good morning, dear teacher,” or
its equivalent.
This, however, was mild com
pared to the ordeal , which faced us
at five o’clock! Tlie freshmen had
to walk down the steps to the Gym
backwards, attired in shorts, heavy
sweater under a shirt, long cotton
stockings, and high-top tennis shoes.
Our hair, plaited in thirteen—no
more, no less—pigtails under a big
paper hat, our faces expressing the
individuality of our respective Soph
omores, were really a sight to be
hold!
Then began a rare series of gym
nastics. After supper had been
duly served by the Freshmen, we all
went tremblingly to Old Chapel for
the concluding episode in our Soph
omore Court drama. The F5ve
Judges filed in—striking terror into
the hearts of the Freshmen. We were
told that we were to be given a last
chance to co-operate. And co-op
erate, we did! With singing, danc
ing, horse-back riding, onion-peel-
i^^5, peanut butter eating. Sophomore
praising, speechmaking, and so far
into the night!
After everyone had done her bit,
the court was adjourned to the base
ment of Alice Clewell Dorm., where
the Sophomores treated the Fresh
men to a party. Bless ’em!
All in all, everyone had a grand
time, and the Sophs are swell. But,
it’s nice not to have to take orders
Invmore!!
