The Belles of Saint MAKif’s
Becky Norman and Mary Galt Williamson (Kan-
lolph.-Macoii) have both been pledged into the Phi Mu
sorority.
All the old girls were pleasantly surprised Saturday,
October 15, when Agnes Sanford, Doris Sutler, and
Grant Jones dropped in to see everyone.
Tudie Neff, the May Queen here last year, is rooming
with another Saint Mary’s alumna, Polly Pinner ( 37),
at Hollins.
Dot Kerr visited Mary Green Thiem October 14-18.
Many friends were glad to see her on the Saint Mary s
campus again.
The one-day visitors still come, but we’d like them to
stay longer. Sallie MacNider was here October 17, and
Lillie Robertson on October 19.
TOWN TOPICS
Following the announcement by Mrs. Cruikshank
that monthly grades would be published soon and that
students making unfavorable grades would have to at
tend the study halls, the majority of the day students
Were seen trudging homeward each afternoon with
larger loads of books. Those first grades mean a great
deal to the new students and now they can settle down
l^or another month without worry (until the last few
days!).
Football games are about the most popular out-of-
school activities. There are many Saint Mary’s belles
present at all the gridiron contests and the week-end
dances are not lacking Saint Mary’s students.^ Furious
discussions as to the ability of State, Carolina, Duke
and Wake Forest to win their latest tilts take place in
file Day Students’ room very often. You might ask
M. W. Prince why she is hoping that State will beat
Duke—or any other team they play!
We noticed that there has been quite a bit of conflict
between a few college publications as to which the boys
bad rather date—college girls or local belles. The pref
erence, according to State boys, was for local girls.
Low, we might ask the question, “Which do the giils
prefer—college boys or the local lads?” Page E. is
partial to the local boys while R. Atkins prefers college
students. A. Ligon is noncommittal, and “Nigger” M.
"'ill take the Raleigh boys. But we think that none of
Lie belles take the boys very seriously—many of our
'lay students say that it’s just a matter of choice.
Some of the teachers with classrooms near the Day
Students’ room have complained about the noise during
'ilass periods. The ping-pong table is not to be used
during classes unless you play very quietly and omit
Ibe shrieking and yelling. It is very annoying for a
teacher to have to leave her class in order to come out
'Jad ask the students to be more quiet. Probably you
don’t realize how loud you are talking and if _you Mill
Ly to lower your voices during classes, it^ will be a
decided improvement over the present condition.
I'he town girls are really enjoying the rushing season
^t State College. Picnics, treasure hunts, barbecues,
and “weenie” roasts are taking up a lot of iveek-end
Laie. S. Oliver, J. Stager, R. Atkins, and Jane F.
^>■0 among the many girls taking them in. Last iveek,
'"ben J. Forbes had that bit of adhesive tape on her
''®ok, she was kept busy denying that Phifer bit her!

This White girl has quietly, but efficiently made a
name for herself at Saint Mary’s. Her good-sport atti
tude and fine athletic talent have pushed her straight
to the presidency of the Sigma’s. She also holds that
position of manager of the little store, which demands a
trustworthy girl. And since she has nothing else to do,
she serves as an office assistant, hall president, and
keeper of the keys for Holt Hall. Still she finds time
to enjoy numerous Chapel Hill house parties and
dances. If you don’t know her, you should, because
Mallie is the kind of person anyone would like to have
for a friend. “Tell me, pretty maiden, are there any
more at home like you?”

Yes, that brave, crippled veteran is Mary Gault, and
a more uncomfortable girl you will never see. Without
her sports, Mary is like her secret love, Ferdinand, with
out his cork tree and flowers. Not only is Mary out
standing as president of the Mu’s, but also as secretary
of the Junior class, hall president, and a member of the
publications’ staff, and the Circle. Whenever you see
someone bubbling over with energy, that’s Mary Gault,
one of Saint Mary’s readiest, willingest, and ablest girls.
