November 8, 1946. THE SALEMITE Page Three. V - ,'Jfj >.V.- ■■"'i ;5i|w Park Hall Is Overcrowded, Has Insufficient Facilities Temporary additions are justJIt “temporary” anil do not tend to last eternally. The section of the root' pictured above is a part of two temporary additions that were put on Park Hall twenty-five years aj;o. While the construction work was of excellent qualityf the ad ditions were not meant to stand the strain of decades. These two additions which were made to suffice the number of science students twenty-flve years apo do not allow adequate room for the present enrollment. Although the laboratory space occupied by students was enlarged from 1400 to 7,000 square feet, it is still inade quate. In the biology lab. it is nearly impossible for the instructors to circulate around the students and give individual help. For chemistry 'i'b. the students are distributed over various laboratories in order to have sufficient space in w'hich to Work. (Just ask the “Organic” girls for further details.) In physics tliere is absolutely not enough room to carry out extensive experiments, W’hich are necessary in many cases to demonstrate. Only one classroom is of sufficient size to hold most of the classes. A smaller classroom accommodating ten students is the only other avail able room. If two classes meet at the same time, the laboratory has to be used for the classroom. The crowded working conditions in the laboratories, the inadequate classroom space, and the lack of storerooms prove further our im mediate need for a new science build ing.

SWEATERS — SKERTS — BLOUSES Porter^s Patter A State representative on campus, namely Scott Nevins made Nancy', not a-Wray, but a-glow\ Also on campus was Sally’s Truelove, Bob Off-campus was Peggy Gleason who had a Long, but not boring, Saturday night. In the middle of mid-November we are feeling and seeing the repercus sions of Davidson Homecoming. Anna Morrison’s looking West-ward. Peggy Page Smith is Bob-ing a-Long. Taking it for Grant-ed is Barbara Ward. Mary Willis finds the “B” department heavy — because she baited a blind date, Buster, a Beta. Jeanne Dungan got a pin, and not one- to tvert gtposis either! Betty Ann Epps came home late, but went Early. Coming events in the non-academic world include an ad-Vance from Richmond to see Sophia. Was Sophia taking Stock-ton last week? Don Swartz is looking over the Mills this week-end while Porter will be en closed by a Stonewall. Annapolis will get a taste of Southern hospitality. Also if Margaret falls into the briny deep at Annapolis next week end the midshipment can Fish’er out. The Saleniitcs going to State Homecoming arc Spruill, not by air, not by sea, but by Tank. Peggy Davis’ invitation didn’t come by telegram, but by Tom-tom. Let’s hope by the time Miriam Bailey gets there she won’t be Tucker-ed out. Incidentally, Debbie Darr ’Sartin- ly has what it takes. We Have A Pull, Line Of SPORTS WEAR SUITS THE IDEAL Style Wise Fashions for - Campus _J^>SNIK’S Freshmen vs. Six Weeks’ Test By Frances Gulesian Just w'hen classes are well under way at Salem, and life is beginning to take on a normal aspect, along comes a little device to frighten freshmen out of their raincoats. It is something which causes them to lose all feelin'gs of newly-won security and to grow panicky. It is something which starts them a study- in’ into the “wee hours,” and sets their nerves on edge. The freshmen roam over campus with a glazed look in their eyes, lack of sleep showing up. Their hair is straight, their nail polish is chipped, even their bobbies are soxed, and they are never seen w'ithout those two old friends, text book and note book. The upperclassmen? It’s just the same old story to them, but they have learned to take it in thi'ir stride. “What is ‘/IT”?” someone screams. Why, the six weeks’ test.s, to bo sure. —Sorry— Yes, they are the cause of the worry. All this havoc has been created by the teachers, merely trying to find out what their stu dents have or have not learned in six weeks. And, I might add, it’s pretty hard applying information gleaned from six weeks of contract bridge to their respective “studios.” Yes, Melody Lane was not the only one with “The Curse of an Aching Heart.” With Melody the trouble was love, but with the low- lowerclassmen, the difficulty seems to be “above”—(their heads, that is). Local Alumnae Schedule Meet The Salem College Alumnae Club of Winston-Salem will hold its first fall meeting at Salem College in the Day Student Center on November 11th at 8:00. Mrs. Ben W. Trotter w'ill preside and announce the per sonnel of the committees. The new Science Building and plans for thC’ 17jjth Anniversary Year will be presented by Djivid 10.

Have you ev'er longed to see your name in lights in a famous thc'atre’s marcjue? Per haps you may, yet see your dreams come true. Picture yourself in the select Davy .Jones Koom. It is 9 o’clock. The lights grow dim, and out intO the indirect spot light comes the charming star of Canada and Salem, Miss Natalie Henry. She sings ex pressively in French the romantic song, “Deep Purple.” As the ap plause dies down, the nowhere re nown dance team, “Les Cinq Superb Sophomores,” made up of “SaSo” Morris, Katherine Ives, Martha Brannock, Gussie Garth, and Boots Lambeth glides across the floor in the' difficult Klondike ballet with the dilicacy of Five Lou Costello’s. The low, gentle music steals over the audience as a jeep crossing the May Dell. Now the spot light re veals the “Duet of Dance,” Fred Taylor and Ginger Gillespie, An exhilara^ng waltz, taken from a Harlem prize fight, is executed in their own inimitable style. Again the curtain of smoke rises on a ro mantic scene. Miss Janie MulhoUum, lingering over each word of love in her songs, captures the imaginations and hearts of everyone. The lights come on and the smart ly dressed waitresses bring the bar becue, sandwiches, and (Irinks the celebrities have ordered. The Master of Ceremonies, Willie Spach, is stop ping to talk among the regular patrons. Miss Hedgecock, the Iwstess, and Sally Hamilton who is this year’s manager of the night club.

Dr. McEvren and head- waiter Mr. Leach is instructing his waitresses under the chatter of the celcbritties can be heard the one- piece orchestra, playing request pieces only. Now let us imagine that it is in the Davy .Jones Koom. The lights dim again as jjetite Virginia O’Brien Patterson steps out to sing in her personalized rhythm. Next, the new find of Clewollinski, Lila Fretwell, vocalizes, proving once more that Clewellinski makes no mistakes. Now tho spotlight finds Eddie Cantor Sargent who opens her eyes and sings. Nothing more need be said. t’or the Grand Finale, everyone joins in to sing their favorite songs together. The scene fades away, and we leave the celebrities as they get into their slippers and push away from the brightly-lit interior of the Davy Jones Room. You too, may become one of these well known personalities. You may have your name in lights and your shoulder in furs. Patronize the same clubs that they do, and perhaps some of the stars will notice your spark ling personality.
