Page Six Apply Now For Study In Europe Two groups of twenty selected American college students will visit Berlin, Germany, and Grenoble, France, next summer to study the languarge, culture, art and civiliza tion of Germany or France during a six-week stay. Both groups will undergo intensive language train ing during the boat trip. Graded classes in small sections of six to eight students each under the supervision of native professors will deal with the reading of classical and modern texts, the daily press, publications on contemporary prob lems, conversation and composition, pronunciation and grammar. Stu dents will also hear lectures on history and meet with outstanding personalities. The Berlin group will have full auditing privileges at the Free University. A large number of courses is also offered at the University of Grenoble, at tended during the summer term by over a thousand French and for eign students, and the Americans will be able to participate in all academic and social activities. Members of Classrooms abroad will live with German and French families and will have ample op portunity to meet young people from student, religious, and politi cal organizations. They will visit theatres, concerts, movies, operas, museums, libraries, factories, youth organizations, and other points of interest. Berlin, today perhaps the most interesting spot in Europe, also offers opportunities to visit refugee camps, the East Sector, the East Berlin university, and Potsdam, Grenoble, “the city with a mountain at the end of every street,” is situated conveniently for excursions into the French and Swiss Alps, the Riviera and other beauty sopts. The Berlin stay will be followed by a two-week tour of Germany, Austria, and Switzeiland whereas the French group will travel through France, Switzerland, Northern Italy, and Belgium. “We found during the past two summers that it is quite possible, even if you don’t know a word of German or French, to learn more than a year’s worth of college Ger man or French in the space, of a twelve-week summer”, says Dr. Hirchbach, Director of Classrooms Abroad, “provided that we get seri ous and mature students who are willing to mix business with plea sure”. Dr. Hirschbach who wall head the German group is an as sistant professor of German at Clark University and taught at Yale for ten years. The French group will be led by Mr. John K Simon, member of the French De partment at Yale University. Dr Hirschbach stresses that the pro-- gram does not aim at ^^superficial impressions or “tourism but rat her at the profounder experience of becoming acquainted with the personality of a city. Full information on the program and a report on last summer can be obtained by writing to Class rooms Abroad, 18 Auburn Street, Worcester 5, Massachusetts.

The plans were presented to Freshmen and Sophomore Classes, which voted to recommend -to the Stu dent Council the adoption of the Rat Week plan. The Student Council heard a re port from another committee on Monday. Anne Summerell, chairman of the committee which was to check the violation of social reg ulations recorded in the Dean’s of fice with violations that had been reported, found that there were very few' infractions which had not been reported. Therefore, the Stu dent Council felt that the present system of placing upon the student the responsibility of reporting vio lations is working very well and voted to continue it, though they also voted to evaluate the system from time to time. THE SALE MITE Comments On Pinning (Continued from page two) Some of the girls were asked, “Would you enjoy dating in just one fraternity?” Camille Suttle said, “Definitely. You can get to know boys and they, you. You feel more a part, more at home.” “I’d love it! (Kappa Sigs at David son, namely),” was Loretta Honey’s answer. Anne Thompson stated, “Yes, if I were serious about some one ; because I would want to know his brothers better, but otherwise I’d prefer dating in more than one, so 1 could meet other people.” Mary Ann Boone added, “No. Be cause you must associate with one group of people; and variety is the spice of life.” Another controversial question is: If you were pinned and apart during the holidays, do you think you .should go on and attend part ies, dances, etc. ? Sallie Savitz s opinion was, “No, I don’t think so because when you get pinned you should know what you’re getting into. Besides, you could go stag if you really wanted to (if the party were informal).” Tommy Callcott (who is pinned to Martha | Jarvis) said, “It’s not right to ex pect someone to miss all the fun in his hometown.” Mary Ann Townsend stated, “I think it would be all right to go with a group or date with friends, but not date someone that you don’t know well.” What first attracted you to your pin-up ? Sarah Price said, “When the car was stuck in the mud (on a rainy night), he took the situa tion good-naturedly and didn’t get upset.” “His blond hair and blue eyes” was M. G. Roger’s comment. Shan Helms admitted, “His sense of humor; but really, I had in vested so much money in him over the period of months that I felt like I’d bought the pin by the time I got it.” And the interesting question— did your pin-up remember your birthday? Clayton Jones answered, “Yes. I didn’t think he’d remember because he had just gone into the service, and I got a dozen red roses the morning of my birthday.” Nyra Boyd exclaimed, “Yeees! He gave me a surprise birthday party with a cake.” —Sallie Hickok Play Staff Is Announced The cast is not the only group who has been working on the spring play, Anis Ira, producer ot The Glass Menagerie, and her various department heads are al ready on the job getting the set built, costumes made, the scenery sketched, and taking inventory on the make-up supplies.

(Continued from page 4) Rushing about packing and dress ing, the girls were able to catch a fast cab to the station. Upon their arrival in Atlanta, Martha, Mar garet, and Dr. Smith had time for an extra discussion session of the problems of the Athletic Associa tion on the college campus. Hurrying to Gate 18 to catch their plane back to Salem, the girls discovered (after a 10 minute walk in freezing weather) that they were leaving from Eastern Gate 18, not Western Gate 18, to which they had hurried I Finally arriving at the right place for take-off, the tired girls boarded the North Caro lina-bound plane and headed back to Salem with new ideas and plans for our A.
