Page four THE TWIG November 20, 1959 Listen Funds Go To Various Projects Wherever refugees flee from politi cal oppression or floods destroy homes and crops, Wherever fires burn out a city, Where ambition burns to overcome hardship in spile of poverty. Where children watch waiting to be fed. Where the diseased suffer and die, Where souls long for knowledge of God and His love. There Christians are privileged to reach out a helping hand and share some of the abundance with which God has blessed us . . . When LISTEN committee mem bers comc to you and hand you a LISTEN bag, do you wonder where your dimes and quarters go? You, through your vote at the B.S.U. Convention, decide how the money collected through LISTEN is used. Recently in Charlotte, Bap tist students adopted the budget for 1959-60 LISTEN funds pro posed by the State Missions Com mittee (Larry Mizell of N. C. State, Chairman). According to the budget an ex pected LISTEN income of $4,700 will be divided among the following nine items: Item One: 35 per cent — summer missionaries to Ghana, Africa, Mexico, and Jamaica. Item Two: 16 per cent — CROP — Christian Rural Overseas Pro gram in Poland and India — pro viding food, plows, tools, seeds, etc., for rehabilitation. Item. Three; 20 per ccnt — Foreign Mission Board — scholar ship funds in Philippines and Columbia — hospital funds for Europe, Africa, and Near East, in cluding a skin grafting machine for Sanyati Hospital, Southern Rhode sia. Item Four: 6 per cent — World Student Christian Federation — to sponsor conference for students in Northern Rhodesia and Nysaland. Item Five: 5 per cent — Na tional B.S.U. (Negro) — a work-aid scholarship to help with National B.S.U. office work. Item Six: 5 per cent — World Education, Inc. (Lauback Litera^ work) — to train a teacher for India — and for literary kits. Item Seven: 4 per cent — Emer gencies. Charm Bracelets and Viiusual Gifts BOSSE JEWELERS 129 Fayetfeville Street LOOK AT THE LIBRARY REVEALS CHARACTERS! By PARK and BELL If you happen to be in the vicinity of the library any time be tween now and research paper, take a look at some of your interesting classmates. The first person you trip over is the one draped across the rail at the reserve desk. In her exasperated voice, she again pleads for the book she must have read in thirty minutes. The library assistant coldly replies, once again, “Young lady! We only have access' to two copies of that book and three people have them out!” Hm-m-m, who’s this we see hud dled over in the corner? Could it , . . could it be a hair clip we see over Webster’s Unabridged? Good grief! What was that explo sive noise? Oh, nothing unusual. Another girl has just sent a card catalogue drawer saucering over her shoulder. Yanked too hard again, eh? And of course there’s always the group chatting — or chattering, we should say — in the stacks. They have no designated time to talk in their study schedules; and they must thmk “Library” is synonymous with “let’s - catch - up - on - all - the - latest - gossip.” If you happen to walk by the magazine room, you probably will notice a smiling girl chuckling over ihe Post cartoons or an intent indi vidual flipping through the pages of a home town paper. Of course there’s nothing wrong with what these girls are doing; but it’s depressing when one is cramming for a quiz to see others enjoying leisure of any type. And speaking of leisure, what about those girls who go to the li brary to catch up on their sleep! Li brary tables seem to be quite effec tive as substitute pillows. A pretty good array, wouldn’t you say? Oh, but here comes the best yet. A girl is now sneaking out of the library door, after obtaining her reserve book. Yep, you’re way ahead of us. That is a pajama leg you see drooping below her rain coat. State Sigma Ghis Have 46 Members By AMY BELL “The girl of my dreams is the sweetest girl ...” echoes through the Meredith court as the forty-six Sigma Chi brothers serenade a new “sweetheart.” This is a momentous occasion, and will long be remem bered by more than one girl. The most recently honored girls at Mere dith are Gigi Jackson, pinned to Van Giersch, and Harriet Sutton, pinned to Wilbur Mozlngo. RolCe Reusing Is President The Sigma Chis reside at 2514 Clarke Avenue, which is home base for the 85 men, including associates and bull pledges. They are presided over by Rolfe Reusing, president, and Bill O’Brien, vice-president. The Sigs have five big events in the year. These are the Spring and Fall IFC’s, the Sweetheart Ball, the Playboy Parly, and a big New Year’s Eve party. They also participate in the. annual Food Drive for needy persons. Some significant Sigs are as fol lows: our own president, Dr. Carlyle Campbell; Booth Tarkington; Don Wilson; John Wayne; Howard “Hopalong” Cassady, chief back for Ohio State; Milton Caniff, creator of “Steve Canyon”; Dr. James Kil lian, president of M.I.T.; L. G. Baylor, world’s largest fraternal jeweler, and the designer and maker of the beautiful Sigma Chi pin. Sigma Chi Has Winning Float The hard work that the Sigs exert as a team has paid off in more ways than one. This year their home coming float won first place in the fraternity division. They succeeded in winning the athletic trophy for nine straight years, until last year> when they came in second. They’re pretty determined when they say they’re going to win it back this year. Heed these threats, Sig Epsl State College, as weU as the entire Raleigh vicinity, is lucky to have such an organization in its midst. We, at Meredith, agree whole heartedly.
