Sound like fun? We think so, and we bet you will too when you see November Glamour. Beware, The Manners Bird Is Watching You Are you a “Mary Manners’’ or a “Sloppy Sal” ? It seems to be the general opinion on campus that we have forgotten our table man ners and become “Sloppy Sals.” It s not unusual to see a Saler*. girl sit down at the table, reach over three plates for the chicken, devour this, and run. We all realize that something needs to be done. Beginning Monday, October IS, the IRS Council is sponsoring “Mind Your Manners Week” at Salem. This is the time for each of us to stop and examine onr manners to see just where we stand. The members of the IRS Council will act as hostesses and begin family style service in our dining room. As you know this means the person at the head of the table will serve the plates and pass them to the left. To really have an improvement in the table manners at Salem, everyone will have to cooperate. Remember the “manners bird” will be watching you ! —Sue Cooper F«ft5T DAY.. aecoND.. The Future Teachers of America had their first meeting of the year Tuesday night, October 9, in the Day Student Center. The meeting opened with a de votional conducted by Ann Knight. Assistant Superintendent of County Schools, Mr. Sorbaugh spoke to the group about the im portance of a guidance program in the schools. He was also con- cerned with the role of the teacher in the guidance program. He stated that a guidance pro gram is not something extra; but rather a service which is designed to help the teacher do a better job instructing. The qualities pointed out as being essential for a good teacher were; that he have a love for children and young people, that he have patience and firmness, and that he have personality. To end his discussion Mr. Sor baugh said that a guidance pro gram is a tool—like any tool it will work for you if you use it, but if you do not use, the tool, it will rust—you must put manpower behind it for the best results. In the business meeting the club discussed plans for the N. C. E. A. convention in Raleigh on November 17. The topics to be discussed at the convention will be: “What are we now doing in F. T. A.? What can we do in F. T. A. ?” Plans for the F. T. A. movies were also discussed. There will be four movies. Season tickets will go on sale in the near future, with Margaret Hogan in chargp.. Now- Cleanest Clothes In Town* worked in the laundry as a girl, Mrs. J. M. King came Then a little Maytag semi-automatic washer was added; later on tliere came an ironer and two wooden washers. For twenty-five years the laundry was situated m the “cave”; during this period Mrs. King be came superintendent, and her daughter, Mrs. Frances Parrish, became her assistant. Under their supervision the staff did all the laundry for the college and academy, the dining hall and kitchen, the practice house and the infirmary, and Alumnae House. * Now, after temporary housing in Clewell basement, the new laundry IS ready for use. , We are real thrilled with the new laundry,” says Mrs. Parrish, “but we still need to get organized.” The new laundry exhibits shining new equipment, an office for the superintendent, excellent lighting and plenty of windows for good circu lation. With the addition of two new pressers, blouses and dresses may now be done faster. They have formerly been ironed by board. In a few weeks, when Mrs. King and Mrs. Parrish and their staff of ten helpers get the laundry running smoothly again Salemites will have the “cleanest clothes in town”. —Jeane Sniithcrman Critic Gets Saddk'Sore ■Jr Near “The Burning Hills They met in a musty, abandoned mine shaft. How romantic for two such supposedly lusty lovers as Tab Hunter and Natalie Wood! How casual it all was. She wandered up the mountain to get some water, and there he was, just waiting Natalie, playing Florence Night ingale, quickly fed Tab some berries. He regained his strength in time to give her an affectionate hand-shake. I kept telling myself that this couldn’t be the “flaming love affair” that was advertised outside. Natalie, dolled up as an Indian babe, coyly sashayed around Tab, the cowboy’s Elvis Presley, flashing her “cur- lash” eyes. That gave some promise of something. I could ,see. that I was in for two long hours of wandering around the desert hills, waiting for that lurid love affair to be born. . ■ Tab paced the width of the mine, eagerly awaiting his lifi^'T love ya”. Then maybe he would plant one on his Indian pin-up. I vaguely )) GlGAli!i|aPSEj^, remember Tab’s escaping on his pinto pony, and Natalie’s vehement promise to meet him up yonder. I sat up with a start. The audience was finally witnessing a Wild desert romance—two cows were rubbing noses in the background of an Indian duel with three white wanderers. I am not tod sure what happened after I recovered from the excitement of the cows’ new-found love because I went to sleep. My date punched me in time to see Tab and Natalie playing Romeo and Juliet. Tab, standing on a cliff, was blowiing kisses t9 Natglie who was in the middle of the river below. “They won't get me,” he screamed, as three of his closest friends stood behind him with shotguns pointed at his back. Before Tab moved ten feet, the first man did somersaults down the side of the cliff, the weight of the second’s gun was so heavy that he fell forward and hit, his head on a pebble. Tab tickled the third on his chin and he fell, dead I guess. Tab took the elevator down the mountain, jumped the river, missed Natalie, and hugged the horse’s neck. The movie was over. I did get my money’s worth in saddle-sores. —Linda Chappell
