T HE T W I O
STUNT AND PALtO HIS
TORIES TRACED
(Continued from page one)
Stunts are judged 6h presen
tation and originality.,
1935, at the suggestion of
Miss Marian Warner, of the
Physical Education Department,
who had seen the Palip festival
Palio was combined
wi^h Stunt night. Since the
Middle Ages, the Palio festival
has b^n held in Sienna, Italy.
The village divides into wards,
with elaborate banners, which
are skillfully used in dances,
and a huge banner is given to
the winner of a horse race. Be
fore this race, all the racers, ac
companied by the singing,
banner-waving crowd, ride their
horses down the church aisle
to the altar, where both rider
and horse are blessed by the
priest. The Palio banner is
cherished for the following year
by the ward whose rider won
the race.
Here at Meredith, Palio has
become just as competitive as
Stunt, with each class working
night and day to present the
cleverest idea. Palio begins at
2:00 P. M. on a chosen Saturday
afternoon, with a parade of
clowns, animals, faculty carica
tures, bicycle and horse riders
and class “horses.” Down the
front drive, each class stands,
dressed in costumes. The fun
is the surprise of seeing what
each class is trying to represent
and to make attempts at trying
to judge which idea is the best.
Robed spectators judge all the
races, the best class perform
ance, and the singing of origi
nal class songs.
Palio and Stunt are two of
Meredith’s most interesting tra
ditions, in fact, as far as it is
known, no other college has
such an entertainment as Palio.

Dr Robert P. Brand, who is
now on the Meredith faculty
instructing in Spanish and
French, was recently featured
in an article in the WPTF Sig
nal, publication of the local radio
station at which he is also t
part-time announcer. The maga
zine, which is published month
ly, is printed for the staff of the
radio station and for past mem
bers now in the service. The
following article featuring Dr.
Brand was run in the October
number of the magazine:
“Dr. Robert P. Brand, part-
time announcer, was born May
8, 1904 in Manila, P. I.; moved
to Canada at an early age and
has lived in the states for nearly
30 years—with the exception
of a year spent in Strasbourg,
France, studying.
Dr. Brand is a graduate of
Cornell University where he re
ceived a Ph.D in Modem For
eign Languages. He majored
in French and Spanish.
While teaching at a Junior
College near Syracuse, N. Y.,
Dr. Brand devoted part of his
time to newspaper correspond
ence work. He found it so
interesting that upon moving to
Charleston (where he taught
foreign languages at the Citadel
for a year and a half) he made
contacts with the newspapers
there, only to find that they were
interested in correspondents
who could devote their full time
to newspaper work. However,
WTMA, the 1000 watt Post-
Cowrier station in Charleston
was very much interested in a
>art-time announcer, and Dr.
Jrand began his career in radio.
He worked there five months
as a full-time announcer before
coming to Raleigh.
Dr. Brand is a member of the
faculty of Meredith College
instructing in Spanish and
French.
His hobbies are many and va
ried, but one is outstanding . . .
CHESS. Not only does Dr
Brand enjoy a good “Live’’
game of Chess, but he is presi
dent of the Correspondence
Chess League of America. A
member since 1934, Dr. Brand
has a chess game going in every
state in the union, in Canada,
and until the advent of the war
had many correspondents in
Holland, England, Mexico and
Cuba. - Those games were dis
continued at the insistence of
the censors who found the
code” of the chess moves taking
up too much of their time!
