Around the Square
Salem’s Segregation
Lucinda Faubus’ exaggerated com
ments on a split in the junior class
were received with surprise in the
“sacred halls” of South dormitory.
Should a campus guard be formed
to force the integration issue? Or
should we attribute the doubtful
existence of such a situation to
mere indifference, and seek to
remedy it by walking a few hund
red feet out of the way to enjoy
an after-dinner cigarette in another
dormitory ?
Salem’s Shut-Ins
Campus activity ceases to be
centered around the bridge table,
in Harry’s, or even in the class
room—the infirmary is the place to
be.
Where else at Salem do you have
breakfast in bed, all your friends
in one building, date complications
worked out by Miss Newlin, no
meetings to attend, and a midnight
snack of fig newtons and either
straight grape juice or a mixed
drink—grape juice and ginger-ale?
Where else does your Mother tutor
you while you lounge in bed and
attend all your classes as Mrs.
Dennis, Norwood’s Mother did?
But where else does your head
feel like “As the World Turns” as
did Erwin Robbins on her first
night with flu?
Ten of Salem’s other shut-ins—
caught in restriction’s web—spent
a quiet week-end playing monopoly
and drinking apple cider contributed
by a sympathetic alumnae, Mary
Hadley Fike.
Salem’s Spooks
The refectory took on the eerie
appearance of a grammar school
Halloween carnival last night when
dignified Salemites arrived in cos
tumes for the occasion. The even
ing ended with tricks and treats.
The party called to mind another
Halloween night three years ago
when Miss Roberts was awakened
at 2;00, 4:00, and 6:00 A.M. re
spectively by alarm clocks con
cealed in a closet, under a bed,
and in the wastebasket. Miss Ro
berts, this is a confession.
Salem’s Surprises
The cancelling of Tuesday’s as
sembly was a record breaking
event, since it was the first time
it had happened in eight and a
half years. We can expect this
surprise annually from now on—
any situation occuring twice be
comes a tradition at Salem.
Salem Snatches
“All the way with the A. A.
Miles” paid a visit to her alma-
mater in a new Volkswagon this
'veek-end.
Presbyterians are still attending
f'hurch at the Winston Theatre. Dr.
Lake nearly forgot his text when
he looked up and saw his eight
year old daughter, Scottie, strolling
down the aisle clutching a box of
pop-corn in one hand and a cup
of Pepsi-Cola in the other to hear
her daddy preach last Sunday.
The science department is ex
panding as the music department.
Mr. Workman is the proud father
of a baby . . .
Dr. Africa is the campus celebrity
as a result of his recent TV ap
pearance on Station W. S. J. S.-

Dr. Lewis announced to his
P'rench 113 class that he would

Musicians Find Satisfaction
In Drowning Out Comrades
Many people have a distorted
idea about the fourth floor of
Music Hall. They think that here,
day in and day out students trudge
to dreary voice and piano lessons.
But it is much more than that.
They also trudge to dreary en
semble lessons, composition, con
ducting, piano methods and sight
singing. Students who take these
courses find an inner satisfaction
in practicing—when they can drown
out the person next to them. The
organ is almost un-drownable and
it plays a close second to two or
three voice majors.
Next in order of high sound
frequency is the bass instrument
class as they transpose a Bach
chorale to strong dissonant har
mony. A few consonant bleeps and
burps issue forth from behind the
closed door—and the students are
immediately stopped and graciously
praised by their instructor.
Just as brass ensemble teaches the
eager student the value of a J^st,
so composition teaches promising
young enthusiasts how to write
original manuscripts. Several prize
scores have found a place in the
hearts of the music world—includ
ing the Faggotta and puge in C
clef for Disposal and Orchestra.
Lamplight Sonofanata, and Quartet
for the unaccompanied coke bottles.
One learns in “Music Apprec
how to appreciate a broken record
player, and students in Music His
tory are thankful Bach died when
he did before he had more than
twenty children to carry on his
contrapuntal line.
Instrumental literature traces an
outline of instruments. Salem
musicians’ fingers get mighty tired
of gripping the pencil to try to
follow the complicated lines of the
violin, piano, and flute, especially
when the tracing paper is too thick
to see through.
Music Methods teach you how to
successfully rope innocent unthink
ing little children into taking
music; how to make a fast buck
when your husband loses his job
The theory classes are basic in
forming the muddled confused
thoughts of a musician’s thwarted
mind. You learn all the ropes
about chords, and what makes a
metronome tick. The emphasis
though is put on part-writing chor
ales—with less stress on the part
you do right. Conducting should
be listed under the math rather
than the music department because
the course teaches you to make
rectangles, circles, and triangles in
the air.
The applied music courses make
up most of the music department.
Piano, voice, cello, harpschord,
violin, organ and harp are offered.
Most people take voice though be
cause it is so much easier than
lugging around a violin, harp, or
piano.
