Cobb, and Carol Quick were elected editors for Sights and Insights, the Archway, and the Salemite last Thursday, March 2, before the other elections took place. Mary Hobson Farr, this year’s clubs’ editor for Sights and Insights, will be next year’s editor of the annual. She will begin her new job covering May Day and graduation of this year, to be included in next year’s publication. It will be her responsibility to select the color and design for the cover, and to determine a theme for the book. In addition, she will contribute new ideas which will make it interest ing. This year, for example, IRS Weekend will be included for the first time. Sarah Lynne Cobb, as the new editor of the Archway, plans to continue in the ways of her pre decessors for the most part, but at the same time to try to get more people to contribute to the publi cation, and to heighten student in terest in it. She hopes to put more emphasis on prose, because that is the usual medium of writing, and she hopes to add essays and book reviews to the Archway next year. She is currently taking Creative Writing and this year has been very active on the staff, writing both poetry and prose. Her poem, “Eighteenth Spring” appeared in the last issue. Carol Quick, Managing Editor of the Salemite, now serves in a va riety of capacities, from typing articles to collecting them person ally from the numerous contri butors. As Editor of the paper next year, she hopes for increased stu dent participation in both articles and letters to the editor. Her ex perience as supervisor should serve her well in continuing the estab lished standards of the Salemite.

The play will be presented Sunday, March 12 at 7:30 p.m. in the sanctuary of the Home Moravian Church.

Kellerman’s talk in assembly Wed nesday. March 1. Active in a Char lotte agency which works with counseling alcoholics and their families, the speaker p'resented the straight-forward cause and effects behind the use and abuse of alcohol. The Episcopal minister placed especial emphasis on the early recognition and understanding of an alcoholic’s condition by members of his family. This realization acts as the key to motivating them toward seeking professional help and treat ment for the alcoholic,, the effec tiveness of such treatment increas ing the sooner it is begun. - Dansalems - (Continued from page 1) Harris, Tuck Smith, Christy Scott, Sandra Culpepper, Celia Watson, Susan Stratton, Cam Voss, Parker Rand, Bonnie Prevatt, Tonya Fres- hour, Marty Dickerson, and Lynn Messick.
