Page Six THE SALEMITE February 29 1952 Miss Anna Perryman Is Salem Graduate, College Treasurer Miss Anna Perryman By Carolyn Harris Surrounded by yellow ledgers and an adding machine, Miss Anna Perryman completed the left col umn of figures and spoke in a modest and proud manner, “I grad uated from Salem in June of 1913 and began working in the Treasur er’s Office in September of the same year”. Miss Perryman worked as an assistant to Mr. C. B. Pfohl, treas urer, for two years when at his death, Miss Perryman became act ing treasurer. Later she became Salem’s official treasurer. When discussing her job, Miss Perryman said, “We don’t do any thing in this office but work”. When asked, very materialistically, if she enjoyed running through the large bills. Miss Perryman ex plained, “In handling money, strangely enough, the money be comes the material with which you' work”. Miss Perryman in referring to Salem girls, said that the campus has its economists, but also, its careless members. She also stres sed the importance of observing the office hours. Not only is Miss Perryman Salem’s guardian of Washington, Lincoln, Hamilton and Jefferson but she has, enjoyed being the Gram- ley’s guardian of Hugh, Bill, and Stevie. Dr. Gramley appeared just in time for Miss Perryman to wish him more trips so she would be able to “baby-sit” more often. Also with Dr. Gramley’s entrance came more work. The interview closed as Miss Perryman added another column of figures to the salary payroll record. Mrs. Patton (Continued From Cage One) college plans for next year with her twin daughters who are seniors in high school, doing a little house work and catching short glimpses of her medical student son. In speaking of the New Yorker, to which she contributes regularly, Mrs. Patton says she never writes as if she were writing for that magazine. Her style seems to fit in with the sort of stories they like. It came naturally, she says, to use a style which has brevity and clear, words. She says her play writing helped her style, too. It is natural for her to “show a per son into the library” with words rather than irpply that he has gone into the librajy. She writes stories in the base ment of her home in Durham. “The children installed one of these high fidelity record player things, and it’s bedlam upstairs.” She says that her next project will be to convert the basement into a more suitable writing room. “It’s just a basement now,” she says, “not very comfortable.” Prosperity, for most of us, is onl}' being able to pay a little more for things we shouldn’t buy any way.
