All members of the Sophomore and Junior Classes who have a C plus average are eligible to apply for the award.

Meet On March 21 and 22, Elbe Mit chell, Mary .^nn Hoone, Jane Ros- tan, Margie Roren, Martha Jarvis, and Dr. VVelch attended the annual convention of the North Carolina Education Association in Asheville. The Salem delegation participated in activities planned for the North Carolina Division of Future Teach ers. At the general assei^bly meeting on Friday night Mart h a Jarvis, Salem’s “Miss Student Teacher”, was introduced, along with repre sentative staident teachers from other North Carolina institutions. In the Saturday session, the Salem delegation proposed that the method of electing officers be studied so that the small liberal arts colleges with smaller delega tions would be given as much op portunity to win a state office as the candidates from the larger state schools. The proposal was refer red to the Executive Committee for study and their conclusions will be presented to the convention next year. However,' an Oslo scholar’s time is not consumed by hard studies after class. The summer scrool provides opportunities to see Nor way and to meet and talk with the people. Two weekend excursions to a different part of the country are a regular part of the summer school curriculum. The summer school itself, various organizations, and businesses entertain for the summer school students by having dances, dinners, receptions, and parties. There are also numerous chances to mix informally with the Norwegians. After the session, the Salem girls have an opportunity to travel on the continent at their own expense. The American Summer School of the University of Oslo was founded as a means of repaying Marshall Fund aid. The summer school does not operate for a profit, •Any college student may apply for admittance to the summer school by writing University of Oslo Summer School Office, St. Olaf College, Northfield, Minne sota. Other scholarships besides the Strong Scholarship are also available and information may be obtained by writing to the office at St. Olaf. Past Strong scholars on campus are Ruth Bennett, Lynne Hamrick, and Martha Jarvis.

Mondays and Fridays enqrauino CO. In the Fall and the Spring there is always a certain hustle about the campus in preparation for a big meeting. Then we see a group of nicely dressed adults file in and out of the office building and everyone wonders who they are I and exactly what they do on the Salem campus. These people are a part of that body known as the Board of Trustees. For some rea son, we hear about the Trustees and see their picture in the year book but we never really know' who they are or what they do. Therefore, Dr. Gramley’s help was enlisted in getting some informa tion on these important, but almost unknown people. The Board of Trustees is com posed of thirty-three members. The five members of the Pro-Elders, which is the board of the Moravian Church, are automatic members. The synod of the Church are elected in three groups of five each, and are on a rotating plan. They serve for three and many remain for a period of nine years. By an old provision, the minister of the Home Moravian Church and the president of the college are automatic members. Six non-Moravians are elected to the Board and are also eligible for a period of nine years. The Alum nae Association elects three, and the Academy Board elects two members. At the present time, th.ere are ten women on the Trustee Board, which is about one-third of the Board members. • This Council meets twice a year, usually in late October and in .April. The spring meeting will be held on April 11. The annual re ports will be given by the Academic Dean, the Dean of Students, the Dean of Music, the Director of Public Relations, the Alumnae Secretary, and the Principle of the Academy. The reports are given by these heads directly to the Board, not through the ’college president. The ‘ tentative budget for next year wdll be revised at this meeting, and next October will be finally adopted. There are three principal com mittees which constitute the Board of Trustees. The executive Com mittee has seven members who meet on call. Dr. Gramley sum mons them about once a month.
