The A. A. Dance will take
place tomorrow,
If you haven’t got a date, why
don’t you borrow?
The thought of six weeks tests
hits us like a boulder.
If you haven’t learned the
facts, just cry on someone’s
shoulder!

Allen Speaks
As W.S.S.R
Begins Drive
To begin the W. S. S. F. Drive
the “Y” Cabinet had the Rev.
Walser Allen, pastor of the King
Moravian Church as its guest
speaker at 6:30 on Monday night.
After an introduction by Carol
Stortz, Rev. Allen spoke on the
organization and meaning of the
W. S. S. F. movement. He stated
that the W. S. S. F. is sponsored
by the World Student Christian
Federation, which is the parent
student organization for students
all over the world. This federation
consists of representatives from
various denominations. ’ Its head
quarters are located in Geneva,
the same place as the World Coun
cil of Churches, and it is in a
position to see the needy areas of
the world. Rev. Allen stressed the
idea that contributions to W. S. S.
F., are going to a worthy cause.
In chapel last Tuesday, Mary
Campbell Craig, chairman of the
drive, spoke to the student body
on the work of the W. S. S. F.
She brought in the fact that the
movement is based upon a “Point
Five” program which is a part of
a total world program prepared by
World University Service at its
annual assembly.
These five points are: (1) to live,
(2) to work, (3) to learn, (4) to
know, and (5) to care. She also
stated that W. S. S. F. represents
the Care Book Program and the
U. N. E. S. C. O. Gift Coupon Plan
on American campuses.
Through conferences the move
ment provides opportunities for
students to gain understanding,
which is necessary in meeting the
needs of the citizens of One World.
Mary Campbell reminded the stu-

English
Actress Wins
Salemites
By Florence Cole
“Yes, I like the South very much,
but I am anxious to return to
London,” answered Vivienne Ben
nett to the usual interviewer’s
question.
Seated on a divan in the Friend
ship Rooms, Miss Bennett pre
sented a typical picture of English
charm and elegance. She was de
finitely queen of the hour and
readily responded to each person’s
questions at an after-dinner coffee
given in her honor last Monday.
Miss Bennett, who opened the
annual Lecture Series with pre
sentations from six famous Shake
spearean plays, was both pleased
and awed by the hushed attentive
ness of her audience.
Apparent delight was expressed
by the spectators as Miss Ilennett
handled the “light” difficulty with
a true artist’s wit.
General campus opinion proved
Miss Bennett’s interpretation of
Lady Macbeth most popular.
Gowned in black velvet, she cap
tured all the masculine qualities,
wild delights and femininity of the
Shakespearean heroine.
Next in favortism was Rosalinde
from “As You Like It”. For this
part she was attired in a befitting
green tunic with matching stock
ings and green suede beret. Her
vivacious presentation of the young
girl was applauded enthusiastically.
When asked if she preferred to
have her costumes unpacked and
placed in a safe place before the
performance, she retorted with,
“No-one but a magpie would pos
sibly want my costumes.”
Miss Bennett’s praise of Salem
was, "Oh, I think it’s beautiful and
I like the old buildings.”
