‘ “Rain, rain go away, come again
; another day” . . . these were fami-
I liar words being chanted by the
numerous sun worshippers only
..I short days ago but now all groans
5 seem to have been answered and
|pithe sun has appeared spasmodically
for a week now. It’s freckle time.
I y Corky Scruggs gets the silver star
i for being the best girl guide during
I the past week-end though she walks
^ too fast or is it that her friend
or IS
walks too slow ?
Sharing honors with May Day
activities were the kittens of the
“thin” mother cat who has become
so much a part of our campus . . .
i'-Uhey came out of their hiding place
^'^only to be “lost and found” all
'Jweek-end long. They’ve never been
(so busy!
Speaking of May Day, PK and
fellow workers deserve a big
hand for the most original and
— gjcreative program to come Salem’s
||way in several years. Too bad the
' insects and bugs couldn’t stop
^■'bothering the participants long
I enough to enjoy the production
^themselves.
M The seniors in the practice house
,.^had a lovely soiree the other even-
^^ing and the food was so appreciated
' i that Katie had to run to the A&P
for reinforcements . . . what a
, compliment!
Mary Lois has the nicest south-
■ ern accent over the telephone . . .
.task any long distance operator
1 north of the Mason-Dixon line . . .
1 'and can she take messages? I
mean she really can I
It’s that lovely time in every sen
ior’s life when comprehensives are
staring them full in the face, pay
ments of all kinds are due (I de-
-jclare Daddy’s love this time of the
’year like the plague), and things
tare being sentimentally done for
“the last time.”
To Marian goes the honor of the
|Girl with the Most Beautiful Blue
I Eyes in the class . . . sure wish
|she could pass around some of
iCarl’s height to those whose men
friends are not so fortunate. Act
ually there are those who think the
. short men are the “neatest” and
iwho is this writer to disagree?
V Frankie has a unique way of
..keeping her friends informed about
her various and sundry activities
T . . . they are posted on the small
blackboard which hangs on the
• 'door. Boy! it sure saves the vocal
"chords.
Erwin is in Seventh Heaven after
' her recital and with the burden of
. iiworry lifted from her shoulders . . .
, it’s fingernail time again.
y:i. Our refectory faculty is the
.■.■/greatest group going as was proved
jearlier this week when they ans-
..'wered the senior’s song with an
original Rogers and Hart of their
own . . .
Our depiction in campus diction
Of life as a Salemite
Liberal Arts is your theme
Graduation your dream.
Your relation to education
Is really something to see
While struggling to get
That Bachelor’s Degree.
Classes may take you all day.
But lessons never all night.
You’ll never break your heart
Though you are somewhat smart
We’d just like to say
1959
Is a class divine.
You have been a delight
While you have been here
As a Salemite.
Now . . .
Hang down your heads, you Sen
iors,
Hang down your heads and cry
You’ll soon be leaving Salem
You’ll soon be saying good-bye.
Life up your heads, you Seniors,
Life up your heads and shout,
June brings that graduation . . .
You’ll soon be breaking out . . .
(Spoken) Maybe . . . perhaps . . .
And when the Seniors go marching
in,
'Oh when the Seniors go marching
in
My friends, will you be in that
number
When the Seniors go marching in.
The clock will strike, the line will
form
The organ music will begin.
And four years will all be over
When you Seniors go marching in.
So grab your books, stop playing
bridge.
It’s not too late now to begin
To head toward that day of free
dom
When you-all go marching in.
The closing line was greeted with
a standing ovation from the student
body. It was the nicest surprise
since the invention of Reading Day
twice a year.
The question was once put to
this occasional contributor of
‘Around the Square’, “Does Martha
pay you for being her press agent
or is it included in the room rent?”
I promise that this will be the last
time I will insert said comment
about one said roommate named
Martha McClure. Memorial Day
is The Day that said person was
brought into this sunny world and
May 30 will be her last “red in the
face day” at Salem College.
WRA Replaces
Softball With
Tennis, Golf
WRA has discontinued softball
due to lack of participation and in
terest. To replace the softball pro
gram emphasis will be on individual
sports—namely tennis and golf.
Students may use the tennis courts
and athletic field any time that
classes are not meeting there.
WRA also urges all students to
read and observe rules posted in
the dormitories before using the
swimming pool. If the rules are
not followed the pool will be closed.
Remember a life guard must be on
duty when the pool is used.
Day Students
Picnic And
Plan
Remode
ing
the
call I the day student
students modeled. A committee
“Pot Luck Supper” is
of the Salem College day
who are retreating to Yadkin Park
May 15, for their annual party.
Co-chairmen, Joan Melton and Kay
Anderson announced that husbands
or guests can be invited.
Later this summer the 33 day
students, of which 16 are married,
plan a picnic to entertain those day . exception of a
students entering Salem next fall.
The group feels that such an acti
vity will give new students a chance
to get acquainted with the Salemite
day students.
Next year’s students will find that furniture.
1 dreams do come true when at last should be

drew up the plans and made sug
gestions to be submitted to Dean
Heidbreder and then to Dr. Gram-
ley showing what the students
would like to have have done. Dr.
Gramley approved the plans as the
students submitted them with the
few minor changes.
The major remodeling involves the
back section oi the day student
center. This section will be divided
into two rooms, one for studying
and one for socializing. These
rooms will be equipped with new

Oh, to be in Elba...
f
now that Winston’s there!”
IT^ WHAT^ UP FRONT THAT COUNTS
The mystery is solved! Napoleon’s
famous gesture ■was just to reassure
himself that he had plenty of cigarettes.
His army may have traveled on its
stomach, but the old boy himself
wouldn’t have been caught at Waterloo
if he hadn’t been checking the Belgian
bistros for a spare carton of Winstons!
There’s a rare smoking treat that comes
from Winston’s famous Filter-Blend—
which means a careful selection of fine,
mild tobaccos specially processed for
filter smoking. Try a pack real soon,
and you’ll agree that...
Winston tastes good—
like a cigarette should!
