'^hose who did not attend the Archway’s concert Thursday
night missed a professional performance by the ex-USO troupe
as they dazzled their way through an evening of song and dance.
Salem’s own golddiggers presented a show as close as possible
to the ones they performed during January. Their tour took them
to military establishments in Panama, Cuba, Charleston, and
other points in the sunny climes. A personal touch was added
to the performance as individual members of the Archways told
amusing anecdotes about their trip and provided picturesque slides
of the tropics.
With songs ranging from twangy country ditties to mood
melodies, the Archways displayed their versatilities and new-found
professional polish to a delighted audience which I’m sure will
join me in saying, “We hope to hear again soon from the
Archways!’’

The Associated Artists of
Winston-Salem are presenting a
multi-media show by Betty Wilson
Holland and Anne Sink Cashwell
at the Hanes Community Center
Gallery, now through Friday,
March 1, with no charge for ad
mission. The two artists are ex
hibiting a varied display of mixed
media. Mrs. Holland enjoys paint
ing landscapes and flowers with
oils and watercolors in a delicate
style that is mainly realistic. Mrs.
Cashwell prefers coastal land
scapes but draws on a wide range
of subjects in her etchings, wood-
cuts, acrylics, and watercolors.
A native of Lexington, N. C.,
Anne Cashwell came to Winston-
Salem in 1956. After attending
Lenoir-Rhyne College, she gradu
ated from Salem College in 1968,
receiving a B.A. degree with a
major in Art. Anne currently lives
in Pfafftown and teaches second
grade at Oldtown. Her prints and
watercolors have appeared in
three major juried shows, and she
had a one man show at Hanes
Gallery in 1969.
Graduating from Salem in 1936,
Betty Holland received a B.S.
degree with a major in Biology.
She has had work accepted by
the Gallery of Contemporary Art
and four AAWS Annual Juried
Shows. In 1971 and again in 1972,
her paintings were shown at Hill
Haven. Besides AAWS, Betty is
currently a member of N. C.
Associated Artists, Art Gallery
Originals, and the Arts and Crafts
Association.

I make but a brief plea for
those with cars who travel to par
ticular areas of special interests
to Salemites to pool your re
sources. Now is not the time to
leave on Thursday and come back
on Sunday all by your lonesome.
Although you might be able to
afford gas, you may not be able
to find it. Is an extra hour or
two on Friday too long to wait for
someone to avoid taking two cars
to Okee Punokee instead of one?
Think of the benefits!
If your dad lets you charge gas,
you could make a little extra
spending money by asking for a
round trip fee. It’s just not that
difficult to put a sign up list on
the bulletin board requesting
riders. The Chapel Hill riders
have formed the Chapel Hill
Riders Association. Why not the
Richmond Riders Association?
Durham
Raleigh
Charlotte
Columbia
A list consisting of all the
Chapel Hill regulars will be
posted on the bulletin board each
week. At the beginning of the
week each rider answers a few
questions about her weekend
plans (such as are you planning
to drive, when are you leaving,
and when will you return). Each
rider then rechecks the list later
on in the week and makes ap
propriate contacts.
I can’t believe it took a gas
crisis for us to figure this out. We
should have been organizing all
along. Sweethearts get yourselves
together!

Lockhart Ledbetter, new Salemite editor, really gets the “scoop.”

Dedicate Library
Refreshments
Follow
By Camille Murphy
There is no doubt all of you
have noticed that we have a new
library on our campus, or rather
a transformed library. Seniors
and juniors will remember nos
talgically (but not regretfully) the
spring of 1972 when work on the
library was first begun. And of
course, the sophomores join the
upperclassmen in recalling the
chaos of last winter and spring —
no heat, no walls, missing books,
catwalks, dirt, and the NOISE!
But we — and the librarians —
survived, and no one can deny
that the end certainly justified the
means.
With work on the library finally
completed, its dedication can now
take place. By now, everyone is
aware that it has been named
after Salem’s 13th president. Dr.
Dale H. Gramley, but what most
of you probably don’t know is that
the. dedication will be held on
Thursday, April 4th, at 2:30 p.m.
If the weather permits, the cere
mony will take place outside in
order to accommodate what is
expected to be a large crowd,
according to Ms. Susan Taylor of
the library staff. Dr. Gramley will
be present, of course, along with
the trustees, members of the fac
ulty and administration, students
from the Academy as well as the
College, and alumnae. A real
surprise is the guest speaker,
Wallace Carroll; no one will want
to miss him.
After the ceremony, a reception
will be held and guests will be
invited to tour the library. Also,
the March issue of the Alumnae
bulletin, containing information
and news about the library, will
be available for guests at the
reception. Ms. Taylor stressed
that the student body is cordially
invited to attend, and the staff
sincerely hopes that everyone will
come. After all, it is OUR library.
