The Glee Club makes its initial trip
on the train! Before this, all trips
have been made through the country
in cara of friends who were Icind
enough to carry the members.
The girls left here tor Rocky Mount
about noon Sunday and upon reaching
there were met and cai'ried to the dit-
ferent homes. One or two girls stayed
in each home where they were treated
in tho kindest and most liospitable
manner. A ride over the city was
planned for the first thing by each
host and hostess.
On Sunday night, at the First Bap
tist Church, because of the absence of
tho pastor, the Glee Club had charge
of tliQ entire program. Dr, Brown
rendered several beautiful organ selec
tions, following which Beulah Row
land sang two lovely solos, and the
Glee Club gave three selections. There
was no standing room in the church
and the cdifice was crowdod even rxt
the time the sorvice began.
Monday night at tho City Tiieatre
the Glee Club gave its regular pro
gram which proved, judging from the
applause it received, to be a success.
Because of the sickness of Frances
White, Miss Stitzel took her place,
and greatly delighted the audience
with her exquisite skill and selections.
Besides Dr. and Mrs. Brown and
Misses Stitzol and Goldsmith those on
the trip were Kculnh Howland, Paul
ine Patton, Janet Holloman, Ruby Har-
ville. Ruby Spainhour, Fannie Paul,
Thomaslne Underwood, Lois Kendrick,
Clarice Tuttlo, Lillian Rouse, Gladys
Strickland, Annie Elkins, Joe Cox,
Thelma and Elma Fleetwood, Louise
Wilson and Ethel Hollowell.

unsuccessful free throws by Garrett
