»6 VI ust [le lie March 16, 1956 A few of the winners of the current elections for next year’s campus offices are Mescal Coe, Cecelia Corbett, and Louise Pharr. Mescal is the new treasurer of the Student Government Association, and Louise is the on-campus Vice-President. Cecelia (Mrs. R. E. Corbett) made a little more history to add to Salem’s abundant store when she became off-campus Vice-President and the first married student to be elected to an office. The elections will continue into next week, and the installation of the new officers will take place during a chapel period before spring vacation. All officers will assume full responsibility after Easter.

He seemed quite interested in the school and campus, and asked us all about its history. I was finishing up a somewhat garbled account of the Moravians, Count Zinzendorf, and the building of Sisters’ House, when we reached the, side entrance of Memorial Hall. We went in and sat down on the hard benches in the elevator room, and kept on chatting, as if obli vious of the approachiiig lecture. When we expressed our opinions that; Sir Roger Makins had been a charming speaker, but had used his diplomacy and tact so well that he had given no positive answers to the audience’s queries, Mr. White related a little story about Lady Makins. It, seems that he was standing next to her at a party this winter, when someone walked up and said to her, “Wasn’t that an awful thing that fool Dulles did?” A mortified expression was the only answer given, as if Lady Makins were afraid the guests would think she had been gossiping about Sec retary Dullies! He was confessing that, before he went to South Africa in 1945, to do some articles on the white supremacy question, he hadn’t kept up and hardly knew what was going on down there, when Rose Tiller icunrHM By Marcia Stanley A film hung over the night. I saw the blurred outline of the gray building ahead of me. The throb bing yellow lights from the win dows cast no shadow. Suddenly the building loomed in front of me, still gray, this time a mellow gray. Shiny, satiny cars hugged the build ing. The blasting bullets of sound wavered and fell hard around me. I walked through the door and into the room soggy with.smoke. I was captured and held by the burst of Elections (Continued from Page One) rettes, Salemite staff, and Choral Ensemble.

We said our goodnights and, as we were leaving, he peeked in the auditorium, and murmured, “I’m getting a little nervous, I didn’t expect to see all those people out there. However, he straightened his tie, adjusted his garters and walked confidently onto the plat form.

One by one the places and the people in the room took shape. I saw the combo in one corner, the players frenzied jungle men seething wdth sound. Everyone in the room was in motion. Each ■person had assumed an impossible face for the occasion . . . those with a thousand teeth showing . . . those who looked as if they were creat- j ing some special witch concoction, | not here, but somewhere else. But ’ they were all joined together by the furious storm of the trumpet, the sax, and the piano. And their hearts beat with one rhythm to the prancing drum. I found a glass in my hand. I needed the cool drink because I was hot. The lights were hot. The people were hot. I held tightly to the glass, and when I drank I was aware of my stinging throat after my mouth had been cooled.

Noting the exact spot, I placed my glass on the table. My date and I began, to dance. At first I was conscious that my feet were not keeping pace with the inside of me, and then suddenly I was co-ordinated. I felt con tracted and dilated in turn. I closed my eyes and the feeling of power surged through me. And this was my room. The music and I pos sessed the room. Suddenly the room was empty except for the myriad of glasses— some shattered on the floor. The little stove at the far end of the room had bellowed its last breath. The floor looked splintery and gray, old and tired from the weight that had stomped on it for three hours.
