Faculty Upsets Students
in Annual Contest
By RUTH ANN SIMMONS
In an hilarious upset on March
22, the faculty defeated the stu
dents in the annual faculty-
student basketball game by a
score of 38-32. With the aid of
seven players and a 15-point
handicap, the faculty played a
fine game.
Players for the faculty were
Mrs. Helen Adams, Mrs. Ruth
Nicholson, Miss Margaret
Schwartz, Miss Marion Davis,
Miss Ruth Woodman. Miss Doris
Peterson and Jean Pace.
For the students, seventeen
players turned out for the four
classes. All those wishing to play
had their chance, for the teams
were changed frequently.
Those who saw the game re
ported such a fine time that we
hope next year’s game can be
planned in much the same way
and that the Meredith family
will turn out en masse.

Various Problems Plague
the Life of a Hall Proctor
By BOBBIE ADDY
Lucy, Gert, Diane, Pat, Flora,
Ann, George. Do these names
look familiar to you? Well, there
are at least eleven girls on the
campus who are well acquainted
with these names—they are the
hall proctors, and the names rep
resent the girls who make life
more “interesting” for the
proctors.
First, there’s Lucy. She’s the
gal who sometimes answers the
phone. These times usually oc
cur during study hour or quiet
hour on Sunday when poor Lucy
is just too tired to walk down
the hall to get the recipient of
the call. There’s nothing wrong
with Lucy’s lung power though,
and she lets out a yell which
drowns out any thought which
may be developing the brains of
the girls who are studying.
Lucy’s roommate is Gert, a
very gay girl. She, too, comes to
life during study hour when she
suddenly decides to practice her
dancing in the hall or to pick out
a few tunes on her uke. Ah, yes,
she’s got talent—no one can dis-

rupt the tranquility of the hall
as quickly as Gert can.
Diane lives at the other end
of the hall. Poor kid loses out on
a good many things, because
there are times when she be
comes completely deaf. This usu
ally occurs when “Prock” calls
light bell; the subsequent knocks
on the door leave Diane quite
unmoved. Maybe she’s too en
grossed in finishing her home
work for the next day. Diane
also has her deaf spells when
her turn to answer the phone
arrives.
Pat is the party girl of the
hall. Any occasion at all—
birthday, engagement, comple
tion of a test, term paper, —is
the signal for Pat to go to work.
Everyone knows that a party
gets better as the night goes on,
and Pat’s really on the ball there
—^her parties never start till
11:00 p.m. or 11:30 p.m.! Mustn’t
waste your time sleeping, you
know.
The basketball intramural
tournament has been completed,
leaving the freshmen the win
ning class.
Three games were played in
all during the tournament. In
the first game the freshmen led
the juniors all the way to a final
score of 42-9.
The second game turned out to
be quite exciting with the un
derdog seniors leading at the
half and giving in to a 25-25 tie
in the third quarter. The sopho
mores came through with that
extra punch and the final tally
showed 36-27 in their favor.
The final game was the
play-off game between the fresh
man and sophomore teams to de
cide the championship. The
winning score was 36-31 in favor
of the freshmen.
Serving as captains for the
four teams during the tourna
ment were Sally Massey, senior;
Jean Dula, junior; Bonny Mor
gan, sophomore; and Ann Jones,
freshman.
Officiating for the tournament
were Mrs. Helen Adams, Mrs.
Ruth Nicholson, Kitten James
and Bess Francis.
BASKETBALX TEAM
DEFEATS DEKE
On March 14, the Meredith
basketball team sojourned to
the Duke gymnasium and pro
ceeded to trounce the Devilettes
thoroughly with a 45-22 victory.
Sue Fitzgerald, serving as cap
tain, led the way with 15 points
to her credit as high scorer.
Others making the trip were
Mary Ruth Godfrey, Alstine
Salter, Ann Lovell, Jean Pace,
and Bess Frances, forwards; Ann
Jones, Ruth Jean Allen, Joyce
Bailey and Nancy Hall, guards.
Anything in your room that
isn’t familiar? Don’t worry, it
probably belongs to Flora. She’ll
be down to get her things when
she needs them. Trouble is, she
never needs them until it is al
most midnight; then Flora can
be heard shuffling down the hall,
squeaking doors, and giving
other clues as to her where
abouts while she collects her be
longings. Flora has another bad
habit; she forgets to tell “Prock”
when she expects an important
phone call after light bell. As a
result, poor “Prock” is usually
mowed down by Flora dashing
