December 14, 1951 THE SALEMITE Page Seven Girls Plan Dance Dates And Dresses By Emma Sue Larkins Uncle Sam and Carolina exams permitting, Salem College is turn ing out in force for the first formal dance of the year. Everyone is looking forward to wearing some things in the gym besides gym suits and to dancing other dances than modern dance. While Eleanor Johnson has a new blue taffeta,.pink-bustled dress for the occasion, Chris Crutchfield has a brand new date—Tommy Ruffin of Winston-Salem. Chris is wear ing an ankle-length black satin dress. Barbara Lakey is dating a Wins ton-Salem boy also — Arthur Spaugh. She is attending a Christ mas dinner party at his house be fore the dance. She will be at both festivities in a navy blue nylon net dress. It seems Winston-Salem boys will be in the majority. Betty Lou Kipe is dating Bruce Pfohl. She will be wearing a cocoa-colored net dress. A matching stole covers the strapless top. Marion Lewis will be dancing in a Christmas red taffeta strapless dress with Charles Overa. Theresa Hedrick dating Dick Thompson, will wear a green swirl ing-skirted net dress. Jane Fear ing will be with Bob Shore in a shining blue satin dress with a slim skirt. Flossie Cole will date Bill Dona- hoo. She will be dancing in a black net dress with a billowy ruf fled skirt. Of course, Sally Anne Knight will be there with Bob McEntee. He will be wearing mistle-toe. Carolyn Dobson, dating Bill Walker, is being almost as original as Bob. Her dress has a fur col lar, a chartreuse net skirt and a gray satin top. Betty McGlaughon says she will wear a leopard skin off-the-shoul- der gown with lizard evening slip pers and an alligator bag. 1 hat s what she said! George Crouch will be her cave-man. Coming as “The Black Rose will be Sue Jones in her red strap less net with a big, black rose on the waist. Bill Buckey is her date. Louise Fike is wearing red also— with Rudolph Manning. Her dress is ballerina length, tjie skirt is net, and the top is taffeta. Her ballerina shoes are dyed to match. Anne Lowe is making good use of her marshall dress. She is wearing it without the jacket and will add red velvet ribbon for that “Christ mas look”. Dancing with her will be a Davidson gentleman. Bud Duncan. A United States gentleman will be Jo Bell’s escort. He’s Pfc. Bubba Clayton. She will probably wear her uniform (marshall dress) since Bubba is wearing his. Another uniform will be that of Lt. Ross Lampe who is dating Faye Lee. . Faye is wearing big, pink flowers^—on a blue brocaded dress. Lou Davis will wear flowers re presenting Christmas on her red net dress. The flowers are taffeta Christmas poinsettias. Ray Deal will lead the figure with Lou. Lou’s roommate, Martha Wolf,e, is dating a lawyer from Roanoke Rapids. Her dress is white mar quisette strapless, and her shoes are gold and white. Horace Bell will be with Emily Hall. Her dress is ballerina length, black net. A nice contrast will be her red satin evening shoes. Another nice contrast will be Myra Dickson’s melon-colored net dress with black velvet shoes. She’s dating Earl Myers. We’re sure Averitt Von Oesen will like Norma Williams’ buttons and bows effect. Her dress is green satin. It has bows down the back and buttons down the front— or maybe it’s the other way around. Euber Roberts says of her dress and date respectively, “It’s a dress, it’s aqua and has sequins—it’s a boy, he’s white and has a fraternity (Continued on page ten.) Merry Christmas! FIRST SEMESTER FRIDAY, JAN. 25 9 A.M. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Martin Martin Advises Marriage; Says One Year Bachelorship Ample By Emily Warden “There were plenty of people in Montgomery, Ala., but .iust not Harry”, were the words of Mrs. Martin when asked what drew her to Salem. What brought Mr. Martin to a girls’ school is still undecided. Last year while Mr. Martin was “baching it” at Salem, Mrs. Martin, the former Peggy Pat Horne, taught art at Education 210 English 103 A English 103 B English 103 C English 291 Home Economics 208 Religion 281 2 P.M.

She and Mr. Martin had met sev eral years before while attending the University of Georgia. Although Mr. Martin, in his seemingly shy manner, admits that “last year at Salem was most en joyable”, he decided that one such year was enough. So, last summer in the heat of' Marion, Va., they became “Mr. and Mrs.” With the wedding their troubles began. Candles Melted Because of the hot and humid Virginia summer climate, the cand les in the church decided to play tricks on the organist. The or ganist’s cue to begin the wedding march was to be the lighting of the candles. However, the heat was just too much for the candles. They began to melt and were re moved from the church still un- lighted. Thus, the organist was completely baffled. Second of the Martin’s troubles was the mistake in wedding pic tures appearing in the Roanoke paper. Under a picture of an elderly, grinning brunette was the account of the wedding. Mrs. Mar tin happens to be a youthful blonde. Mrs. Martin Has Strep Throat And as if these^were not enough troubles, more came. After several days at Roaring Gap the newly weds returned to Marion, Va. to pack their belongings and head for Harvard, where Mr. Mirtin was to attend, summer school. The Virginia heat again proved too much, for Mrs. Martin developed a severe strep throat. As a result Mr. Martin “enjoyed” the remain der of the honeymoon alone. However, two weeks later they were reunited in Cambridge, Mass., where they spent a delightful sum mer touring New England' be tween classes. One notable ex cursion was to Mr. Campbell s sum mer home in Maine. Here the Martins and the Campbells spent an afternoon boat-riding. Mrs. Martin said of the experience, “Harry looked like a wet dog in the back seat of the boat, while I sat up front with Roy where it was nice and warm and dry.” Apartment Near Salem Fall came and the Martins found R. 131 Sci.

When asked about the task, Mr. Martin replied, “It was hard work moving all those frames and boxes. All I can say is never marry a woman who is an artist or one that saves everything she gets her hands on, but do marry one.” Hard work was evident from the hand-made and dyed curtains to the clean, waxed floors and the modern paint ings on the walls. Mrs. Martin readily commended her husband by saying. “He’s a hard working fellow! He sleeps while I work, so he won’t have to think about me working so hard.” He willingly admits that sleeping is the solution to many of his problems. They do have a keen system of dish-washing, though. H^ washes the dishes while Mrs. Mar tin calls out his German vocabulary to him. Marriage Philosophy Works For his philosophy of married life, Mr. Martin passed on the advice Professor Warren Spencer gave him on the eve of his wed ding. That is to agree that the woman shall always make the minor decisions and, the man the major ones. “It works too”, says Mr. Martin, “because Peggy Pat has considered everything a minor decision.” One matter of interest is how the Salem girls have accepted Mrs. Martin. Mr. Martin hummed and hawed a minute before saying “You know the girls are not nearly as warm this year. In fact they treat me with a great deal of coolness.” But to Mrs. Martin everything and everyone seems very natural and she just knows “there couldn’t have been a more friendly place than Salem.” Pipe Is Sickening If you drop by to see them sometime, you will probably find them in their back living room. Mr. Martin will either be ponder ing over ideas for his grumpy geo graphy class or filling his new pipe “which always makes him sick”. Mrs. Martin will be diligently painting a portrait of her brother, knitting Harry’s belated birthday argyles, making Christmas deco rations from tin can tops and grad ing his test papers—all at once. For as Mr. Martin says, “She starts 40 things at the same time, gets in a dither and then I have to come in and straighten things out.” Chemistry 102 Sci. Bldg.
