Four Real Little Sisters Find Older Sisters At School Are Just Like All RealOlderSisters I’t. By Mary Hadley Fike . There are many disadvantages in having a big sister at the same college you are attending. First, if I didn’t have one at Salem I wouldn’t be writing this article for the Salemite. Second, I dislike being called Louise’s ‘little :sister’. By the time I reach col lege age I don’t thnk I should be labeled ‘little sister’ — one glance '•will prove otherwise. As the saying goes, “I wish my baby sis would quit borrowing my clothes”. It’s just the opposite in my case—at least Louise could ask me. I thought having a big sister 'up here with a car would be great! At present I have ridden in it only once, and that was to ride ■ with somebody to get gas so Louise could go off that weekend. I’ve talked to Marian Harris about this touchy subject, and she thinks that it would be only proper to add her own commentaries to ' this article. Marian first made the ■statement that it certainly is nice to run over and borrow Harriet’s clothes since they are the same size; but she wants to know where Harriet hides them. - Of course, the promise of blind 'dates by her sister had a lot to ■do with Marian’s selection of . Salem, but thus far, she hasn’t seen one—blind or with 20-20 vision. ' Harriet and her roommate have given Marian appetizers, but not the wholesome steaks they pro mised. She wants Harriet to know that her adopted big sister from the Junior class has carried her out to the Steak House. Claudia Milham’s first remark was, “How in heck am H going to live up to the Dean’s List ?” She admitted that it is very nice to tell her troubles to Nancy and to borrow money from her. Claudia ended her comments with “I keep telling myself that it will be seventh heaven after Easter with Nancy’s car, but of course I will be confined to Cozy trying to live up to the standards she has set.” Last, we hear Patricia Smith’s statement for ,the press as she lists her quibbles over the subject. “Big sisters are a panic! especially Eleanor! She not only bestowed a title upon me—Eleanor’s little sister—, but then she insisted on setting standards which I can never follow. She’s on the Dean’s List, while I flunk hockey tests; and she makes the May Court, and all peo ple do is look at me and say, ‘You’re Eleanor’s sister?’ Oh, well. You know how it is—an other day, another compliment”. We little sisters are at wits end trying to keep up with our out standing big sisters. Maybe we should stage a strike and carry signs with big bold print saying “Share and Share Alike”—your grades, looks, personality, and men! If someone decides they would like to sooth wounds and feelings won’t you 'please write an “Ode to all little sisters” in next week’s newspaper ? ■e- An Array Of Dresses And Dates To Be Seen At QinghamTavern By Louise Barron, Ann Crenshaw, and Sherry Rich ■ Tomorrow night, amid autumn '•colors and under a large “Harvest Moon” many Salemites will atte^ • Gingham Tavern, the first informal "dance of the year. The big oc casion is sponsored by the Home -Economics Club.

I feel awful bad but I don’t want it hid. So I’ll tell you about it and if I cry. Just let me alone ’til my eyes dry. It started long ago, and I was gay. I was quite a fellow in my own strange way. I had a friend; one of the best. We roamed together all through the West. What was mine was his, and his was mine. And though we were tough, not a word was unkind. We rode in the West on our horses bold. We were young and gay and in search of gold. One special night as we rode into town, I spied a chorus gal in a golden gown. Now I love anything with a golden glow— Her dress was golden and it was so low! “The Kid” (my friend) spied her too. But I told him quickly, “She’s not for you.” “The Kid” took the horses and bedded them down. I took the gal and we ‘did up the town.’ We went to a bar and I bought her a drink. I bought me seven and passed out—I think. When I came to my gold wasn’t around. Neither was the “gal in the golden gown.” “The Kid” was gone with the gal—I knew. I started after them, wouldn’t you ? I was so mad that I swore and I cussed. “The Kid” had taken my gal and my “dust.” I hunted them until one night, “The Kid” I found. He was alone, sleeping on the ground. “The gal in the gown” was nowhere in sight. And I shot “The Kid,” well, I had the right! I went to the tree where his horse was tied; MORRIS SERVICE Next To Carolina Theatre e e e e « Saod'wiches—Salad*—Sodas “Th» Place Where Salemites Meet” And beside it, a golden stallion I spied. ■ The stallion was too beautiful to behold. He was a Palomino not six years old! A golden saddle was on the ground. And in the pack, a note I found . . “To my Western friend,” it told, ' “This stallion I give you, it looks like gold. Gold you love and gold it will be, A golden stallion to you from me. A friend you are so stay that way. I sign off now with “Happy Birthday.” That is the note that I found that night When I killed “The Kid” Without any right. The gal is the one who stole. my “dust” And I thought it was “The Kid” I could not trust. A horse to buy, is why he left town. And I thought he went with “the gal, in the gown.” “The Kid” is buried and the stallion is free— And a noose is hanging from a limb on the tree. I just wanted to tell you, I wanted you to know— I’m sorry for the thing I did. now I can go. I’m hanging myself in the cowards way. I’m hanging myself on my own birthday.
