Salem’s Concert-Dance Weekend
Brings Roy Hamilton, The Shirelles
Roy Hamilton will be performing his hits "Ebb Tide," "Stormy
I Weather" and "You'll Never Walk Alone" at the IRS concert, Fri-
|day, March 5.
“Mama Said” it could never be
done, but top-name performers Roy
Hamilton and The Shirelles are
going to prove it can. With the
help of IRS, Salemites and their
dates will outstep tradition March
5 and 6 to the tunes of these well-
known entertainers.
Concert-Dance Weekend 1965, will
begin at eight o’clock Friday night,
March 5, as Roy Hamilton, backed
by “Guitar Kimber and the Un
touchables” brings to Salem such
old favorites as “You’ll Never Walk
Alone,” “Sophisticated Lady” and
“Ebb Tide.” The concert will be
held in the gym, where chairs will
be provided. IRS requests that the
attire for Friday be wool dresses
and heels.
Casual clothes, an absence of
chairs, and a quickened pace will
set the stage for The Shirelles’
Saturday night performance. “The
Swingin’ Five” will accompany
them, providing dance music and
further entertainment as a climax
for the weekend.
The contract has been signed;
and the date is set. Now the rest
is up to us. It niay not be a Leap
Year, but here’s our off-year chance
to show some young man a mighty
good time.
The decorations and publicity for
the weekend will be managed by
MacFadyen. IRS
secured the enter-
Nickye Yokley,
Roberta Frost, and
Carol Bruce
members who
tainment were:
Holly Wooten,
Sally Day.
Members of the faculty will be
provided seats in a reserved section
of the gym, and IRS hopes that
they too will enjoy the weekend.
Time, effort, good “tunes,” a
touch of “Mama Said,” “Dedicated
To the One I Love,” and a trans
formed Salem gym will all be
mixed to offer a varied weekend.
Don’t pass up this chance to parti
cipate in outstepping tradition and
joining your classmates and their
dates in Salem’s “Concert-Dance
Weekend, 1965.”
The dorms will remain open until
1 o’clock both Friday and Saturday
nights.
NSA Offers Reduced Travel Rates
For European StudentTours, Study
^,
The Shirelles
Through the National Student As
sociation you can travel to and from
lurope, on a tour or independently,
travel within Europe, sleep and eat
|for less than one half the prices you
pay for locally organized trips. You
don’t want to go to Paris? How
about Portugal, Greece, Belgium, or
Austria? Through NSA you can go
Ito almost any country in the world
jcheaply.
How? The first step is your pur
chase of an NSA Student Identity
ICard. This card, stamped by the
iNational office of NSA and by
ISalem College enables you to use
jstudent lodgings and restaurants,
■book passages on charter flights,
Igain free or reduced admission to
Imuseums and galleries, and obtain
Imany other discounts in the USA
[and twenty-eight other countries.
If you are interested in student
Itours, NSA offers college tours and
Istudy programs. One such tour is
lAustria, Italy, Switzerland, and
I France — approximately 53 days
[the Central European tour. It in
cludes England, Holland, Germany,
and nights — $940. And then there’s
the Southern European Tour, Israel
and Western Europe Tour, Bicy
cling and Hosteling Tour, The
Festivals of Music and Drama Tour,
European Art Tour, Camp—Travel
Program, French Study Tour,
Spanish Study Tour, Politics and
Economics Study Tour, and many
others.
If you’re thinking about working
abroad, do it through NSA. The In
ternational Student Work Camp is
an all-student community in which
15 to 75 volunteers live abroad and
work on a project of benefit to the
citizens of a local community. A
Work Camp Tour differs in that it
not only provides you with a job in
a work camp, but arranges special
travel programs before and/or after
the camps as well.
Why don’t you find out about
both ? Or if you want to study, let
NSA affiliate you with a program
sponsored by an American Univer
sity, with or without a travel pro
gram included. You might also be
interested in one of the study tours
mentioned above.
If you’re not interested in travel
ing abroad anytime soon, you’d pro
bably benefit from the purchase of
an ID card anyway. Just show it at
New York foreign restaurants,
beauty parlors, movie houses, mu
seums, art galleries, newspaper
stands, first rate hotels, nightclubs
(such as The Bitter End, Village
Gate — many others) and you enter
for half price — or even free. We
have lists for you of the places that
will honor the card. If you plan to
see the World’s Fair this summer,
an ID card is a must. Admission to
some of the biggest displays is
reduced for you.

Richert, Brownie Rogers, Wendy
McGlinn, and Paivi Koivistoinen
were Salem’s first representatives
to the Middle South United Na
tions General Assembly, which was
held in Chapel Hill February 10-13.
Because of our foreign students
and Oslo scholars, we had asked to
represent a Scandinavian country.
Fortunately, we were given Nor
way, which meant not only would
we have representatives in the
Salemites Participate In

Johnson, Greta Jones, Sue Ann
Brooks, Laurie Williams, and

“Oh Dad, etc.” is a farce in three
acts. The action takes place in
Port Royal, a city somewhere in
the Caribbean. From the rising of
the curtains in Scene I with the
entrance of the bell boy carrying a
coffin, to the concluding bedroom
scene, the play promises to be a
“delight in unreality.”
Future civic leaders and poli
ticians gathered in Winston-Salem
for the winter rally of the North
Carolina Federation of College
Young Democrats. The event took
place at the Robert E. Lee Hotel,
Friday and Saturday, February 12
and 13.
One hundred students represent
ing twenty colleges in North Caro
lina met to hear guest speakers.
Featured were Dale Wagner, Chair
man of College Young Democrats
of America; Franklin D. Rozak,
College Director of the National
Democratic Committee; George W.
Milter Jr., 1965 President of North
Carolina YDC; and Charlie Mercer,
President of North Carolina Teen-
Dems. Keynote speaker for the
rally was J. Melville Broughton,
Jr., Chairman of the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee, who
spoke at the Friday night general
session.
Also on Friday the film, “1000
Days of John F. Kennedy” was
shown. The entire Salem YDC will
be invited to see this film at Wake
Forest later this month.
During the Saturday morning
session, the delegates participated
in a debate and discussion of Presi
dent Johnson’s Medicare Bill. The
principle speaker was Phillip Des
Moris, Deputy Assistant Secretary
for the Department of Health, Edu
cation, and Welfare. Following the
debate, a vote was taken and the
convention passed the Medicare

Carson McKnight, President of

tution Committee. Salem College
was appointed the the State YDC

review legislation to be presented
at the spring rally. The delegates

Carolina General Assembly.
General Assembly, but also in the
Security Council.
Thursday and Friday the As
sembly divided into four commit
tees : Political; Economic; Admini--
strative and Budgetary; and Social,
Humanitarian, and Cultural. Reso
lutions were presented in each of
the committees. These resolutions
were debated, amended, and then
either passed or defeated. Those
resolutions that were passed were
brought before the General As
sembly, which met Friday after
noon and Saturday.
Of particular interest was a reso
lution from the Political Commit
tee asking the admission of Red
China to the United Nations. The
resolution was passed in the com
mittee, but it was defeated in the
General Assembly.
A rather shocking incident occur
red when Albania, disgusted with
the entire Assembly, withdrew “all
representatives from the organs of
the United Nations” and left the
room.
Particularly enlightening was a
speech given by Dr. Waskow, au
thor of several books and writer
for such magazines as “Atlantic
Mnothly,” “Commentary,” and
“Scientific America.” Dr. Waskow
spoke on the financial crisis in the
United Nations and on the situation
in Viet Nam, in which he gave
background information and possi
ble solutions to these pressing
problems.
More than anything else, this
conference made us aware of how
little we know about world situ
ations and how important it is that
we take time to find out. We all
feel we have gained immeasurable
knowledge, and we eagerly antici
pate our trip to New York in
March.
