The plea sant little white-haired lady says with eyes sparkling, ‘ ‘ Salem has sure changed since I first came as a girl of twenty.” She remembers well when woodstoves warmed little girls who studied by gaslight. But the many changes, she assures us are for the better”. ^ Miss Anna, who is 79 years old, treasures the memory of a party given for her in 1936 by students and faculty in appreciation of fifty years service. As “guardian of Salem’s flower garden,” she is a familiar and beloved figure on the campus. You’ll find her living in Sisters’ House where she has been since 1925. She’s a true Salemite.

Handsome Yankee Art Professor Likes Southern Fried Chicken and Warm Climate a half, are living in Winston-Salem. Eussel Crews, head cook at Salem for 26 years, has entered the cafe business for himself in Winston- Salem. I I Welcme Sakm Students To GOOCH’S “THE STORE ON THE CORNER” Come over to see our Menu— We have everything that’s good to eat for that “IN BETWEEN SNACK” Some of our specials are: Cream Cheese & Olive on Nut Bread, Ham-Bun, Hot Fudge Sundae on toasted Pound-Cake, Wal nut Fudge Tarts, Frozen Pineapple Juice. All Kinds of Salads, Soups, Sandwiches and Fountain Drinks “Ben” and Kathryne Roberts Proprietors If you see a tall, handsome, blue eyed man walking around campus looking I’hther bewildered, yx)u’ll know that it is our new art pro fessor, Kenneth Evett, and not a co-ed as one freshman concluded His bewilderment is a result of his unsuccessful house-hunting cam paign. His family, including a wife, 4 year-old Danny and an 8 months-old daughter, are now in Boston waiting to hear news of their new house in Winston-Salem. Professor Evett comes to us from Boston where he recently tnught art at the Vesper School of Art. This is his first trip to the South, but he seems to have a few Southern char acteristics, for he loves good fried chicken and our warm climate— not to mention the Southern hos pitality. Like all Northerners, he says that he has never met so many ‘ ‘ agreeable people, and it’s really overpowering to have folks be so nice to you.” He proves to be a very sympathetic listener, and if you don’t watch him, he will know much more about you than you know about him. “Elegant” is the word hft uses in describing our baautiful campus. The quaint passage ways which “hook the buildings together” are fascinating to him, although it is reported that a few of them are a bit too low for his statue. This Yankee is very eager to see more of North Carolina. Ho wants his tour to include Duke University and the Skyland Drive beyond Asheville, so if you happen to be going either way, be sure to let him know I “I have heard no unkind words about your mountains,” ho says. As to art, he belongs to the modern realistic school, “which can mean anything”. He will quickly straigh ten you out if you think that all modern art is similar to T;hose crazy pictures in the Life magazines as some do. He plans to bring many interesting exhibits to our cam pus to acquaint us with some of the modern trends. Like the writer, he believes that all peot)le have something to say” and he plans to show hia pupils how to “say things” in various art mediums, oils preferred. Besides art he is interested in dra matics, music, modern cartoonists, and tennis. In the dramatic field he hopes to work on stage settings and design, which the Pierrettes are very glad to hear. Evett is enthus iastic about such cartoonists as TTliurber and Steinberg who are favorites on campus. He feels that they stand high in the field of art expression because ‘ ‘ they put so much in so few lines.” Professor Evett is a graduate of Colorado ;St(fito College, Colorado University at Colorado Springs, and is a former art student at the Fine Art Center in Colorado and Wood- stock, N. Y'. (Too many Colorados in that sentence!) He expects to like Salem very much and boy! we sho’ hope he doeg! Weinland Proudly Tells of Daughter Papa Weinland reports that our youngest addition to the campus is Katherine Euth Weinland. She was born at 6:12 A. M. August 15, 1945 —one day after Japan surrendered! She weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz., has blue eyes, black hair, and big feet. “Needless to say,” reports the proud papa, “she’s as cute as a crutch!” She destroys the legend that all babies chew on their feet; she doesn’t. They prefer to feed her. She has a tremendous appetite like her father. She doesn’t cry at all, but she is “definitely awakened to the universe and is interested in people and stuff.” The latest quota tion from Katherine is “Oooooo.’ More will come later.
