J \ Leg Board In Election Votes Voting Change Order Salem Legislative Board approved Tuesday, February 18, a proposal to modify the present order of elec tions by grouping together all publi cations on the slate. Primarily affected by this new arrangement is the Salem College literary maga zine, Archway, which at present is isolated from Salem’s other two publications, Salemite and Sights and Insights. Under the proposed arrangement, the Archway would come directly after these two publi cations on the slate. Reasons for suggesting the new arrangement were several; First, its present position is an illogical one. As the slate now stands, the Arch way is grouped with organizations and clubs rather than with publi cations. Under the proposed amend ment, all executive offices would constitute one grouping, all publi cations a second grouping, and all clubs and organizations a third. Second, there is no logical reason why it should not be changed. Tish Johnston, President of Student Government, has stated that the sole reason for the present position of the Archway is that it is the most recently-organized student- budget group (now in its fifth year). Thus, it was never actually incor porated into the slate; it was only “tacked onto” the end. Third, the Archway receives a comparatively large portion of the student budget each year ($500), serves the entire student body (a broader percentage than some of the organizations preceding it the slate. Day Students for ample), and demands an increasing amount of time to edit—as the num ber of issues published per year in creases. (This year, the Archway will increase its output to two is sues instead of the previous one- per-year.) Stee Presents Slate on ex- m Dr. Willard Thorp Susanne Boone STUDENT REFERENDUM SET FOR FEB. 27 First suggested on February 4 by Archway editor, Olivia Sowers, the proposal was discussed thoroughly before board members came to a unanimous vote of approval on Feb ruary 18. The proposed change must now be approved by a two- thirds majority vote of the student body before going into effect. Balloting has bene set for Thurs day, February 27, during chapel. Thorp Lectures Thursday Noon Six Seniors Begin Stay In Management House This morning six senior home economics majors began their six weeks’ stay in the home manage ment house. During this period Irene Rose, Mary Jane Harrell, Marty Paisley, Bunnie Salsbury, Judy Wilson, and Becky Gaddy will put into practical application the principles of management that they have learned. Their duties vary from planning the meals to cleaning house to j decorating. Each girl will have an opportunity to devote a week to leach area since the duties are di vided into six phases. However, rthe work will be a joint effort and each girl will do a little of every thing. A budget of $42 a week, or a dollar a day per girl, is all inclusive. Even snacks are included on the budget, in addition to the food for meals and household cleaning sup plies. Weekly evaluations will be made by the girls to check progress and to see if all is running smoothly. Entertaining friends and family is another phase of practical appli cation, and the home economics majors would like for Salem stu dents to visit and see the newly decorated house. Salem will receive Dr. Willard Thorp as a visiting lecturer for as sembly on February 27. Dr. Thorp, professor of English at Princeton University and a former visiting professor at Yale and Rice Insti tute, has been a lecturer in English at several universities including Hawaii, Virginia, Harvard, Minne sota, Washington, and Duke. His topic will be “How We Got the English Major.” Besides being a member of the Modern Language Association of America, American Studies Asso ciation (president, 1958), Fellow American Letters, Library of Con gress (1944-49), and American Council of Learned Society (1931- 32), Dr. Thorp is also an author. Some of his writings are An Ox ford Anthology of English Poetry, Literary History of the United States, A Southern Reader, and American Writing in the Twentieth Century. Dr. Thorp was born in Sidney, New York, and was graduated from Hamilton College in Clinton, New York. He received his Master’s degree from Harvard and his Doc torate from Princeton.

His special field of avante-garde music is Electronic music. Ad Reinhardt is called “the Black Monk of New York” because of the black background used in his paint ings. He has had 12 one-man ex hibits and has shown his work both nationally and internationally. Mr. Reinhardt has very definite views about art and its significance. He preaches an “Art-as-Art” dogma. He has said, “Art-as-Art” is a crea tion that revolutionizes creation and judges itself by its creations. Art- ists-as-Artists value themselves for what they have gotten rid of and for what they refuse to do. Mr. Reinhardt has written a number of articles on “Art-as-Art.” The symposium committee also hopes that an art exhibit and music performances will be presented dur ing the symposium, "rhe Pierrettes will present “The Chairs” by Inesco and “A Slight Ache” by Harold Pinter, which are examples of the “Theatre of the Absurd,” the drama topic of the symposium. The whole student body and fac ulty will be divided into different groups of about 30 people for di.-- cussion during the symposium and preparation for it.

Heading Salem’s rep resentatives as official delegates are Mary Dameron, Brandy Hughes, Jean King, and chairman, Anne Marie Martin. Alternate delegates are Robbin Causey and Wendy McGlinn. Ob serving at the assembly, at which Salem is represented for the first time, will be Peggy Booker, Carson McKnight, Nancy Smith, Susan Storey, Jane Frost, Judy Campbell, Ann McMaster, Zena Strub, and Beth Rose. Salem representatives dropped plans to submit a bill to the legis lature and decided instead to sup port a bill identical to their own, a mandatory car inspection bill. This bill, which has been developed in a University of North Carolina at Greensboro SSL committee for al most a year, provides for a yearly check on automobile conditions. Specified checking stations will be set up, according to the bill, and service stations willing to serve as check stations will receive seventy- five per cent of the one dollar fee, twenty-five cents of which will go to the state treasury. This bill has been submitted to the General Assembly in past years and has been defeated each time. Another matter on which the State Student Legislature is expected to disagree with the General Assembly is the controversial “Speaker Ban Bill.” Chowan College has pre pared a bill for the repeal of the newly-enacted law which strictly regulates speakers who may appear at state-supported colleges and uni versities. Included among the bills being presented at the SSL are a bill con cerning the protection of civil rights in North Carolina, submitted by North Carolina College; a bill granting the governor veto power over legislative action, submitted by Greensboro College; a bill for state aid to North Carolina students in private colleges within the state; and a bill prohibiting the flying of Confederate flags from local, state, or federal buildings. The conclave will begin at 10 a m. Thursday with an Interim Council meeting, followed by registration, and then the opening address by Governor Terry Sanford.
