Salem College has numerous Christmas tra ditions, such as Tree Lighting, the banquet, and Y's Orphan and Veteran parties, and "peanuts." Cooperation among Salemites seems to increase in line with the general Christmas spirit of har mony and generosity. Cooperation and tradition unite to add even more of an extended family atmosphere to the Salem com munity. Salem and Old Salem, always neighbors, invite and support each other in Christmas traditions. Freshmen are given a sneak preview to the Candle Tea, this year Old Salem offers us an in vitation to Christmas In Old Salem for the first time, and our seniors carol in the neighborhood. Increased cooperation is again the key to the season's spirit. This year the lines of communication in the cooperation process seem to be jammed over one issue on our side of the Square, how ever. Salem students are preparing for the third time to fast for India. Students have been in accord on both of the previous dates. The feeling of certainty about the completion of the project is wan ing. Although our spirit has been dampened by attempts to thwart an act of giving, let us hope that the overall Christmas spirit at Salem is as warm and sincere as ever. Letters Praise Column, Recognize Follies Player Hilton Head Island, South Carolina Dear Editor: I have to vehemently disagree with the letter in your last edition critizing “Bouncing Off the Bricks.” We here in the southeastern South Carolina coast appreciate the col umn as a refreshing intellectual satire on the hypocritical factions at Salem. Many thanks to Mama Cass and 99. Mr. Ah Di Os Our apologies to Allyson for leav ing out her name on the program and our thanks to her for being accompanist. Sincerely, Martha Eubanks Girls Compete In Volleyball Dear Editor; It has come to my attention that an error was made on the Senior Follies program. No recognition was given to Allyson Bullock for the work she did as piano accom panist. Because she did not re ceive formal recognition, the Senior class does not want anyone to think that we did not appreciate the effort that she put forth or the time she invested in Senior Follies. It is obvious to all those involved in Follies and to those that saw it that Allyson was one of the most vital parts of Follies.

Radios Show New Boost In Quality Broadcasting By Lyn Davis Today in the United States there are more radios than peop almost 263,000,000. After failing in popularity with the odv of television in the 1950's, radio is now back on its way up- fact, it has almost surpassed television. This great upsurge has been due to radio's acknowledgemeir the facts.
