WORKONPAPER
(Ed. Note: Lt. Pete Ivey^ author of
‘■‘Pass the Peanuts” a column ap
pearing ill a daily newspaper, home
on furlough discovered that girls
had taken over the men’s jobs on
the ITocky Mount paper and wrote
this column).
Diary—Down to the newspaper
office in Rocky Mount where I used
to deliver The Evening Tele'gram
afternoons after school and found
three Salem College girls in key
positions of the editorial staff.
Editor of the paper is Maude
Battle (class of ’38), Salem graduate
of a couple of years ago. She’s man
aging editor, chief editorial writer
city editor and desk man.
Society editor is JoSephine White
head (Class of ’38), who a couple
of years ago was publicity represent
ative for Salem College.
News reporter^ proofreader, head
line writer and assistant city editor
is Beece Thomas (class of ’42), who
finished at Salem last Spring.
Maude Battle succeeded Vernon
Sechrest as managing editor. He
broke her into the job, and they
wrote the editorial page for a time
until Sechriest left for the navy,
and then Miss Battle took over the
entire editorial page, with frequent
contributions from Josh Horne the
publisher.
“We used to get things mixed
up at first when Sechrist, Mr. Horne
and I were all three writing editor
ials,” said Miss Battl?. "Sometimes
we’d find that we had all written
on the same subject. Not only-that
but often Sechrist and I would
take opposite views on a subject,
and it would come out in the paper,
so that people thought we were
divided among ourselves on the staff.
Then Mr. Horne would come along
with a third viewpoint. So we final
ly had to assign ourselves certain
subjects for the day. That kept ns
consistent.”
Surrounded by all these women in
the news-room is the photographer
and sports editor, Bugs Barringer.
“When anyone comes in to horse
whip the the editor, my gallantry
is such that I have to accept the
challenge on behalf of Maude,”
said Bugs. “And any time any of
the girl reporters get in trouble or
are in danger of being beat up, I
step into the breach.”

Dr. Vardell’s performance was one
of brilliance. His interpretation of
so difficult a composition needs spe
cial emphasis. During the entire
number he felt each mood, as any
artist should do, and moreover he
transmitted this mood to his audi
ence. The last movement was very
timely and gay. As Dr. Vardell
played his facial expressions gave
him away. He honestly enjoyed
playing the movement.
Dr. Vardell’s “orchestra,” in oth
er words, Elizabeth Johnston at the
second piano, did a grand job of
accompaniment. So to both of them
goes applause for a splendid per
formance.

The Vatican announces that a lone
plane dropped four bombs on the
Vatican City. Effectively ending
the Nazi propaganda charges that
the raid was made by the Allies,
Acting Secretary of State Stettinus
officially announced in Washington
that it was not an Allied plane, thus
boomeranging the blame for the out
rage squarely upon the Germans.

Jap troops on Bougainville Island

the island some days ago now are in

the service is Mary Lewis, vice-
president of the “Y”. Army life is
an old story to her, for her father,
Col. Robert Lewis, has been in it
since the last war. He has been in
Trinidad for the past year and a
half and often sends Mary lovely
jewelry and exotic perfume from
there.
Prue Coyte’s father is a doctor in
the Royal Army Medical Corps of
Great Britain. He entered the corps
in 1939 and has been busy aiding
wounded soldiers efver since. He
was stationed in Ireland for a while
and then was sent to Africa, where
he is now as far as Prue knows. He
is in the thick of battle and says
he not only treats English men, but
German and Italian prisoners as
well.
Salem doffs its hat to these girls
and particularly to their fathers.
A certain tenseness has pervaded
the hockey field the last few after
noons. Opponents fought more fierce
ly in a scramble for the ball. Team
mates strove to hold their positions
in spite of the urge to follow the
ball. Managers watched hawk-like
for good and bad points and began
formin(g class teams. The whole
group seemed to have a common
goal before it. This goal is the
Hockey Tournament. At present the
schedule stands as follows:
Friday, Nov. 12—Sophomores vs.
Freshmen.
Monday, Nov. 15—Seniors vs.
J uniors.
Tuesday, Nov. 16—Seniors vs.
Freshmen.
Wednesday, Nov. 17—Sophomores
vs. Juniors.
Monday, Nov. 21—Freshmen ve.
Juniors.
Tuesday, Nov. 22—Sophomores vs.
Seniors.
From the practices and from past
records, a prediction of the outcome
of this tournament can be made. The
Sophomore-Freshman game should
run evenly for a short period, with
the Sophomores coming in for the
kill. Juniors should find the Seniors
not too hard a nut to crack, and
the Seniors and Freshmen will come
to an even play with the Seniors
having the benefit of three years
previous experience. The Sophomore-
Junior game should be the toughest
and most exciting. Both teams are
strong and have responded well to.
their training. This game will prob
ably show the final outcome of the
tournament. A fairly easy win is
predicted for the Juniors over the
Freshmen unless the backfield of
the Freshmen is reinforced consider
ably. The Sophomore-Senior game
should give the Sophomores a tussel
out of which they will emerge
victory.
To repeat, it seems the Junior and
Sophomore teams will come to a
draw for the “Winnah’s” laurels.
By Monday, November 15, all
points that upper-classmen (exclud
ing freshmen and new transfers)
have accumulated in sports since
they have been at Salem must tje
turned in to Mary Ellen Carrig or
Mildred Butner Park, if a letter is
desired. In listing your points, also
give the year that you, got them in.
