Class Skits Highlighted Fcdl Fest
Gina Starling, Shari White, and Bobbie Shepherd, aboard
the ‘Senior Cruise.’
by Pamela Sawers
The highlight of Fall
Fest took place Monday
evening Sept. 27, in Hanes
Auditorium as each class
presented their class skits
and songs.
The freshmen started
the program with a skit
depicting their ex
periences at college, which
included a hu'morous
version of the freshmen
mixer.
The Sophomores
followed with a cheerful
skit centered around
beach tunes.
The Juniors then took
the stage and sang
Christmas songs with
adapted lyrics describing
their two years at Salem.
They concluded with a
song dedicated to then-
sister claims, the Seniors.
Last to perform were the
Seniors. Their delayed but
dramatic entrance, with
sparklers and Captain
Mickey and Marty
Hesgard guiding the
Senior Cruise were two
high points of their skit
which won first prize.
But there was much
more to Fall Fest than one
evening of theatrical
presentations and an
excuse to postpone class
assignments.

Sunday evening with
daquiri parties and fresh
men dunking sessions.
Monday morning, the
students woke at 6 a.m. to
the sounds of the entire
Senior class running down
their hall, banging pots
and pans. The excitement
which initially vibrated in
each dorm, resounded in
the Salem Square and rang
throughout the refectory
during the course of the
day. Monday evening
brought the traditional end
of Fall Fest, the keg party,
held this year at
Hollyfields Lounge.

Byers to Lecture
by Sandra Freuter
Dr. Inez Byers will lecture
on “The New Woman at the
Turn of the Century” at 7:30
p.m. on October 5 as part of a
series of programs on “The
Humanistic Vision of
Charlotte Perkins Gilman”
sponsored by the YWCA.
Presenting Gilman in a
historical context. Dr. Byers
will portray her as a “new
woman” who broke out of the
old concept of woman’s
nature and fear.
“New Woman”, a phrase
used at the turn of the cen
tury, applies to women who
were concerned with their
right to vote, economic and
social rights, and those
wanting a better lifestyle for
all individuals.
According to Dr. Byers,
Gilman possessed a utopian
vision of the male-female
relationship, seeing so much
of the hidden potential in
women. She was an early
voice of economic liberation
for women, believing women
should define their own roles
in nature.
Dr. Byers believes the
entire series on Gilman will
be of great interest to Salem
students, as it explains where
women have come from as
a result of the “new
woman.”
The lectures are held at the
YWCA, 1201 Glade Street, and
are free.
The last public lecture of
the series, “Changing Lives
and Changing Spaces” will be
'^n October 19.
