An exchange program was
presented by the Raleigh Music
Club to the MacDowell Music
Club Wednesday, November 14.
Fill Gongalez, pianist; Elizabeth
Whippsie, flutist; and Aileen
Lynn, accompanist; were pre
sented on the program. The pro
gram opened with “Chanson et
Badinerie,” by Pierre Camus. One
of the most enjoyable pieces on
the program was “Variations on
a Theme by Correlli,” Opus 42,
by Rachmaninoff. Of course the
program wouldn’t have been
complete without a composition
by Debussy. His “Syrinx” was
included on the program. After
the delightful program, the Mac
Dowell Music Club gathered in
formally in the hut where mem
bers became better acquainted
with the guest performers. In
the spring, the MacDowell Music
Club will present a program to
the Raleigh Music Club. Both
clubs are members of the North
Carolina Federation of Music
Clubs.
Brahm’s “Requiem” was pr^
sented by the Raleigh Oratorio
Society Sunday, November 18,
at 4:00 p.m., in Pullen Hall. Our
own senior voice majors partici
pated in this performance, along
with some members of the facul
ty, Misses Whitaker, Ashley, and
Woodman. Miss Weyer accom
panied with the violin—and our
own Mr. Stuatt Pratt directed
the “Requiem.”
Here’s something we don’t
want to miss! A faculty recital
will be presented by Sigma
Alpha Iota at 8:00 p.m., Novem
ber 28, in the small auditorium.
An informal reception is being
given by the SAI’s afterwards in
the chapter room, and everyone
is invited.
Off the record—Miss Whitaker
is “really” going to have a nice
Thanksgiving! She’s spending
it in New York.
Thanksgiving Day, I fear.
If one the solemn truth must
touch.
Is celebrated, not so much
To thank the Lord for blessing
o’er.
As for the sake of getting more!
(Will Carleton—“Captain
Young’s Thanksgiving”)

Great as the preparations were
for the dinner, everything was so

house should be kept from the
morning service of Thanksgiving
in the church.

And let these altars, wreathed

And piled with fruits, awake
again
Thanksgivings for the golden

Scotch Hockey Team
Plays atWesthampton
By RUTH ANN SIMMONS
Bright and early Monday
morning, November 5, sixteen
girls and three faculty members
piled into cars for a quick trip
to Westhampton College in Rich
mond, Virginia, to see the Scotch
Hockey Touring Team play the
Virginia All-Stars. Although the
score was a one-sided 8-0 in
favor of the Scotch team, the
United States was by no means
in disgrace, for the best player
on the field was the Virginia
goalie, who time and again
stopped the onslaught of the
Scottish players.
Miss Constance Applebee, the
“Connie Mack” of hockey was
an honored guest and rolled the
ball in for the center bully to
start the game. It was Miss Ap
plebee, a native of England, who
first introduced hockey into the
United States in 1901 and has
been largely responsible for its
resulting popularity. The hockey
ball bearing her autograph is
among the prized possessions of
the Meredith hockey players.
The girls were slightly disap
pointed that the Scotch players
didn’t wear their kilts, but their
purple tunics and the yellow of
the Virginia team made for a
colorful game.

This year about 1% million couples are getting
married and setting up homes of their own. These
new households will need electricity for lights ...
for cooking and refrigeration ... for washing,
drying and many other services that make life
comfortable and convenient.
They’ll have it, too! The power lines and
power plants are ready in advance. Your business-
managed electric light and power companies plan
things that way. There’s electric power to make
all these new homes comfortable and convenient
-as well as power for the big rearming program.
In fact, the business-managed electric light
and power companies have more than doubled
the supply of electricity available just 10 years
ago ... and have scheduled the installation of
30% MORE power by 1953!
