(Continued from page five) appointed, but when they took a second look at Desmo, standing there in all the radiancy of youth, they decided to make the best of things and go ahead with the acti vities of the day. The first event, according to the schedule, was a wrestling match. The boys couldn’t decide who should sit with Desmo, so the only fair solution was to have her parti cipate in the wrestling as the re presentative from Salem. This was a skill right down Desmo’s line, for she had taken two semesters of hockey and one of body mech anics, not to mention a little mod ern dance. Into the ring she climbed, stopping momentarily to I shed her brand new Salem blazer before taking on the first con testant. Three hours later Desmo had pinned all nineteen of the con testants to the mat, and brushing her hair out of her eyes she climbed out of the ring to meet her dismayed escorts. There was no reason wh}?' they should be dis mayed—Desmo had had blind dates before, so she was an old hand at wrestling. .After a picnic supper at Erwin Lodge (which necessitated ;i three mile hike over the golf course), Desmo and the boys took in a dance and went back to Chambers to meet the bus. Bidding the boys goodbye, Desmo boarded the bus and came back to Salem, joyous over her day at Davidson. As she rode she planned a new life for herself, resolving to challenge Emily Warden and Mr. Campbell the minute she got back. Oi* • • • (Continued from page four) Now is the time for all of us to start wondering not only about ourselves but about the world—its people, nature, science, religion—. Here we are being offered the op portunity to perceive the world and its meaning. How many of us are rejecting that opportunity and are content to be one of the crowd because we haven’t lost the high school conception that the most important thing is to be one of the crowd! How can we make Salem a pro gressive institution if we, its stu dents and faculty alike, are not interested in the workings of both its administration and student gov ernment ? How much of a student government have we ? How many of us, if we are forced to attend chapel, take an honost interest in Student Government ? And why is there such a division between the students and faculty? Salem should be a focal point for each and every one of us, but it is not. We students live for the week ends. The faculty seem to teach only because they are here and that is their profession. Thus, as freshmen, how are we to become aware of all the wonderful oppor tunities of the world, if it does not come through the courses we take ? The change of ideas and ideals from freshman to senior should be gradual but steady | That is the obligation of the ulty. How many of them have taken their privilege as educators seriously ? How many of I faculty realize the immaturity us girls and honestly try broaden our intellectual and cul tural scopes. Where are we to I learn to think and to discriminate if not partially from them? There are too few among this faculty who take an honest interest in the pupils of their classes. Few under stand the nature of young women and even fewer are interested. Complacency, disinterest, hypoc. risy, avoidance of responsibilities these are the things combined ij students and faculty that keep Salem from being the college com- munity it could and should be These qualities are human fail, ings, yet we cannot overcome then until we recognize them in our- Marilyn Samuel selves.
