October 7, 1949 THE SALEMITE Page Five )♦ Behe Gives VsTheLcnvdoivn On Twin Sister Marcia by Bebe Skinner Writing about my sister, and a ('/in one at that, is quite a new ex perience for me. My opinion of my sister will necessarily be from a family viewpoint, and very dif ferent from the impressions gained by outsiders. Marcia Skinner is a brown haired member of the freshman class. She has lived all her life in Selma, Alabama, where she was born eighteen years ago. She is typically fond of her home town and all the people that live there. But outside of family interests, there is a main attraction—he at tends .A. P. I. at Auburn, Alabama. She likes Salem a great deal and is very impressed with the friendlv atmosphere. She has not decided as yet what she is going to major in. Martha Newsomb, from Hender son, N. C., is her roommate. It might seem strange to some people that we are not rooming together, especially since ^wins are supposed to be so compatible, but we de cided that eighteen 3'ears of being roommates was enough and we needed a change. Marcia led an active life in high school. She was a member of many organizations, but her favorite job was that of being photographer for her school annual, the Se!-.Ala. To all those who are confused and w’onder which of us is which, Marcia is the one who wears green or black glasses.

Poor Joyce Whitehurst had to sit alone and watch Johnny Richards fight for dear old Dividson. It seemed to' be a losing , fight though, and with somewhat dampened spirits we all trudged back to the fraternity houses to wait for that 11 o’clock deadline. Like all good things the dat' seemed to end in a hurry and W'e were standing beside the buses say ing good bye to our dates.

PASCHAL BROS. 219 W. 4th The Finest in Shoe Repairing, Cleaning, and Dying Bebe’s Secrets Revealed By Twin Sister Marcia Bebe Skinner by Marcia Skinner There is an old saying that “twins think alike.” May I say here that that is true. My twin Bebe stole my topic sentence, so I am left without an opening for this feature. It would do no good to look in a mirror to describe my younger half. As far as looks go, we have nothing in common. Bebe doesn’t wear glasses and I do. It is not that she has stronger eyes than I do, but Bebe has a good system. When it comes to studying she is always talking about what she is going to do. When the battle is between History and bridge, the grand slam usually wins. Brown haired Bebe has the flair for clothes, and she ’ looks well, in them. I must add here that she has a piece of jewelry which dresses her sweaters up quite a bit. Yes, Bebe is pinned to a home town boy. She did not even ask permission, but there are some mat ters that even a twin must consider private. Bebe participated in many high school activities, but she was even better known for her good sports manship. I am sure that in her school days at Salem she will be come one of the leading Salemites. Joan Cornelious, Bebe’s room mate, has taken up where I left off in rooming with my sister. I am sure that Joan will do a good job, for Bebe is very congenial. I leave Bebe with “what she is going to do.” In conclusion, may I say that I hope she makes her bid.
