CduseBxodus
A strange phenomena will occur
this week-end.
From Friday noon to Saturday
noon there will be a general exodus
of girls from Winston-Salem to east-i
ern Carolina.
The refugees have nobly put aside
all regular duties and obligations to
get ready for the trek. Fur coats i
are coming out of moth balls. Hair- [
setting, manicuring, packing, repack-!
ing, pressing evening dresses, shoe-
shining and sending telegrams are
some of the preparations already 1
underway. i
These poor unfortunates who are
being forced to go on this journey j
are forsaking their own academic
homes to make others happy. These ^
are some of their comments: |
Susan Walker: “It grieves me to
go, but I must; a friend is waiting
for me.” j
Peggy Broaddus; “I hate to leave,
but duty calls.” j
Marion Gaither: “If other people
can do it I think I can.” j
Among those who will be a part
of the exodus are Dot Arrington,
Betsy Schaum, Barbara Folger, Jean
Griffin, Nancy Wray, Candy Untiedt,
Jeanne Dungan, Betty Ann Epps,
Katherine Ives, Dot Massy, Sis
Hines, Jane Hart, Betty Kincaid,
Elaine Singer, Car^yn Dunn, Laura | jjjQjj-jpjjjD SENIORS pose with books in hand and I tinsville, Va., and Mary Turner of Statesville. (Photo

Congratulations to these upstand
ing young women who are able to
put business above all else and give
their all to the greater universities.

Write Your Autobiography
by Dot Arrington |
What a boom t6 the world on
April 15, 1928. I was born. |
The family and friends leaned
over the crib, “What a beautiful
baby! ” But I told them they hadn’t
seen anything yet. I grew up in
Rocky Mount doing all the proper
things young girls do—piano lessons,
dancing lessons and cheering the
Rocky Mount Blackbirds on to vic
tory. When I flowered into yojing
womanhood, I came to Salem to get
a Well-Rounded-Education. I am
majoring in Spanish and minoring
in bridge. |
One way to know me is by what
other people have said. I
I asked my teachers what they
thought of me: “You are a won-|
derful, brilliant student.” I
My roommate: “You are fault
less ’ ’.
Friends: “A swell girl”.
Deans: “One of our finest girls
—lovely, attractive”.
Now that you know what other
people have said about me
might like to know what I thiul^
about myself.
My limpid blue eyes are set iii ^

like gold. I’m interested

aU my classes. (For the benefit of
the faculty.) All in aU I’m a typi
cal Salemite.
A word to all interested readers
if you d like to have an especi
ally good write up, just ask the
editor to let you it yourself.
We’d each take turns being
the buyer and going to New
York! My brother can do
really good interior decora
tion work; he can experiment
with his new ideas on our
new shop. ’Course, now, It’s
still just a hope, not even a
plan yet. But I do think it
would be fun!
-It sounds like the most fun
in the world. Oh, oh! There
goes the bell.
-And here goes us. See you
later.

South Calls;
North Lures
by Porter Aviary Evans
November is the migratory season
of our feathered friends. We should
know more about them: their colors
and markings, their habits, and
what is most important, where these
birds can be found.
The Ymra-Yvan birds, also known
by the popular names of Nancee
Wrayee, Candee TTntiedee, and Libee
Smoakee will be in the area of Phil
adelphia next week.
The Stadius bird is characterized
1 by its habit of flocking to football
games. Reliable ornithologists re
port that the teethomas-barbarafol-
I ger-sasomorris-annlinier, one of the
j Stadius variety, will be at the Vir-
ginia-Carolina game.
In northern New Jersey there will
be two birds of the same classifica
tion (sophomores) with dark head
markings, the Dalla Smitha and the
Elainus Singus. The Baltimore Ori
oles Liz Leland, Bobbie Bacon, and
Penny Fagan, will also be migrat
ing north.
The LeBey bird and the little Col
ette Spiegelbird are surprisingly
strong-winged; they will fly to At
lanta. The Stickney Blue Faye, a
rare variety for this vicinity, can
be seen in Charleston. Those birds
with the light head markings, the
Prlvetta and the Kennedia will
alight in New Bern.
These are just a few of many
migrations; there are numerous hom
ing birds, song birds, and dodo birds
who will take flight from this area

—She certainly is! Perhaps
she heard about this one
through our latest customer,
Christine Gray.
-You mean the Christine Gray
who is head of the National
Bureau of Social Work?
She was at Salem with me,
too; All three of us were
together. It seems to me
that I remember one day at
school when we three were
talking about what we would
do after graduation. I be
lieve it was Eliza, I mean
Madam President, who was
going to be a history teacher,
and Christine, we called her
Tina, who was going to do
community work. And I
was going to have a very
small shop in Statesville,

Boney^Snoops;
Closets Yield
After being absent for the past
two weeks due to six week’s tests,
your ole snooping reporter has again
gone sneaking into the closets of
unsuspecting Salemites.
Really, it’s quite a lot of fun—
you should try it some time. Of
course there’s always the possibility
that the owner of the closet will
come in and catch you unaware. In
which case, you calmly take down
a couple of dresses and politely ex
plain that you’re working your way
through school and wouldn’t she
like to have them pressed?
Getting back to fashions, I ques
tioned several people and learned
that there had been quite a number
of new clothes purchased by the
seniors lately—so without further
polite chatter, I’ll tell you all about
them.
Janie Morris on her trip to Can
ada this summer found some beaut
iful scotch plaid wool material—all
navy, green, red, yellow, etc. She
found a dressmaker in Winston, who
made her a beautiful double breast
ed suit, round collar and deep, deep
cuffs. Very smart!
Lib Price has a beautiful “New
Lookish ’ ’ coat. Brown gabardine
with padded hips. So French look
ing, oui!
Janie McElroy has a wonderful
black gabardine suit. Loose black
coat with elegant ermine collar and
trim on the pockets.
Jean Griffin has a chic blonde
satin suit. It features a brief little
jacket, with a graceful flared skirt.
Ruby Moye, our Senior bride-
clect, just made me turn green with
envy. She has some good looking
new clothes—a smart and practical
ensemble struck me particularly—
a blue plaid dress navy blue shortie
coat, and navy plaid skirt. She can
sling the coat over the dress, or
wear it with the plaid skirt making
a new outfit. She has a gorgeous
white wool blouse, featuring a gold
embroided crown on the pocket.
Barbara Folger has a darling black
moire taffeta tea dress. Just the
background for the beautiful brace
lets and earrings, which were a birth
day gift from Ben.
Margaret Carter has a cute new
blue wool-royal blue that is just
the thing for a winter night’s date.
She also has a new green, wool
dress with sequins all over the top.
Amle Watkins has a most sophis
ticated beige silk crepe. This dress
has a very tricky harem skirt.
Bronze velvet roses caught at the
waist add just the right note.
Well, I hope the underclassmen
will forgive me, but I promise to
devote my whole column to them
next week.
So long—
