L jNovember 3, 1944 The Belles of Saint Mary’s Sainfs Sallies * students left scliool last week- '^iid for the first time, and what a '’time they did have! Their new ad- 'Uitioiis of tall tales, starry eyes, and 'smiling faces are enough to convince '’anyone of the “Ileavenliness’ of *tlieir week-ends. And was it won- derfiil to be home again; are you 'kidding ? i The seniors havF a few stories to jrelate too. Mary Holmes really tells .of a gay time in Wilmington . . . .Jean Sullivan went home with her Vourse planned to the letter—as the result of her “military” strategy, all ^objectives were accomplished and ^ishe’s happy again. . . . Fanny Hill ^'claims that she read the Odyssey, I’hut who’ll, believe that ? She prob- ''ably spent her time wording tele- Jgrams for future use. . . • Barnie ‘iaiul Betsy were full of excitement hvhen they arrived. Barnie saw tliui old friend while she ivas home iand it really was a _ surprise, if. . . Ruth Hayes came in telling jjabout her mar—ve—lous time m jK.’harlotte. . . . Carrie Maie says that Ijall the queens w'ent to the “Queen iCity” but her. . . . Flee and Kat '■were there and judging from^ then .half-shut eyes, we’d be willing to [sign an aludavit to the fact that .‘saw loads of excitement. . . • Bid tyou hear about Maria’s mad dash .(.for the plane Thursday; then she 4 flew back too. CAMPUS NOTES ^ As for Music Betty Barnes and Molly Mitch ell, ’44, dropped in to see every body October 22. They are at •Carolina this year. 27, for a visit Cruikshaiik. Charlotte Crawford visited in Raleigh from October 21 through October 25. She was traveling from Black Mountain to New London, Connecticut. # # ^ Miss Emily Cate, visited her sister.

Miss Geraldine Cate gave a talk about the Philippines at the Hill- yer Memorial Church Monday, October 23. David Smith, 10-year-old son of Mrs. Leroy Smith, is recuperating from a short illness. The Canterbury Club wdll have a supper meeting November 12, in the hut. The E. A. P. and Sigma Lambda Literary Societies met in Smedes Parlor October 25. They selected new members and had a quiz pro gram. The girls that didn’t go home still managed to scrape up a little excite ment. Sidney dated that ensign again. Tell us, Sid, who is winning now—Navy or Army Air Corps . . . . Teence and Bobby looked pretty happy when they came in Sunday night. B. J.’s planning a big w^eek- ciid resulting from that Sunday night date, but Teence is still sort of thinking about a certain preflight cadet. . . . Rodwell and Tucker were ’ holding their own too. Show us where to get some Army men-— please! Needless to say, Sallie Rob ertson had a good time. Not last week-end, but the one be fore was important to lots of us. Suzanne Elias went home to see hei brother, the darling ensign that 'vvas here not long ago—it’s rumored that he's to return—v ehope. “Ease and Roberta could kiss their best friend for being married so they could take off to be in the wedding. Besides ' the fun of the wedding, they met "'people” there. Ask ’Berta about the new addition on her left hand but she’ll probably just be able to get started on the “best man oh tale. ... In Kitty’s opinion, the most important part of Tennessee was here for the girl-break. . . . Kathy Foard’s sergeant was here to make the dance complete for her. . . . Virginia Smith went home for a dual purpose—to go to the Navy dance and see her brother. . . . Did you hear about Mo Thorson’s week end ? People on her hall say she hasn’t stopped talking about Sunday afternoon and three of the male spe cies yet. . . . “Bones” did well that week-end: bombardier wings U7id a TVest Point pin. . . . Susan Ashburn obtained a pair of Navy Wings, klore power. Speaking of flowers. What about klary Tom’s and Teence’s roses, and Jane Peete’s cut flowers, and Sallie Mrs. 'Walter Simpson went to Trvst Oaks October 21-23. Miss Adelaide Winslow went home to Rocky Mount on the ■week-ends of October 21 and 27. rvith Mrs. Ernest The Rev. Mr. I. Harding Hughes went to Wadesboro last week-end. Because of the absence of the Rev. Mr. I. Harding Hughes, Saint Mary’s girls at school last week-end attended various town churches. Miss Betsy Blount has been to Washington, N. C. for the past two week-ends. Mrs. Frank Clark, nee Mary Pride Cruikshank, and her chil dren arrived in Raleigh, October Now that everything is in full swing around the campus, there doesn’t seem to be much time to lis ten to radios and phonographs; how ever, there is always “Tempus Fugit” (unless you don’t get up un til 7:25!), which offers everything from Good Old Mountain Music to Gracie Fields’ lies Dead But He TTouT Lie Down! Here are some of the in-betweens which you may like better: The Political Science Club will meet on the first Sunday night in November. Program? C. A. P. Moore spoke to the as sembly about current events Oc tober 19; William C. Guess, on October 26; Russell Broughton, on November 2. The All-Star Kickball Team is composed of Barnie White, May Bunn, Eleanor Thomas, Betty Griffin, Kathryn Lane, Margaret M. Martin, Bess Parker Banks, Frances Avera, Sara Coe Hun- sucker, and Carolyn Holland. “Frankie” Shamburger managed kickball this year. Sara Coe Hunsucker, Margaret M. Martin, and Kathryn Lane are new Letter Club members. Carolyn Holland, Frances Avera and Betty Griffin have recently won letters in kickball. Robertson’s roses, and Ruth Rogers’ orchid. . . . Susan Thorpe and Lina are really breaking some poor souls —financially and otherwise. Susan gets calls from Seymour Johnson constantly and Lina never ceases to get wires from New' York. Mary Harris and a certain sopho more are having a little trouble and he seems to be having a little him self—making up his mind. . . . Lina, Mary C., and Lucy Seaman are buried in a little book of directions entitled ^Yeelc-end Pointer—could be West Point? . . . First floor Holt W'ent off its reducing diet when Caro line Myers sent a big cake with luscious wdiite icing. . . . Looks as if May knows all the answers—even in history class too. . . . Jean Huske is really a BTO; or did you see those THREE men last Sunday . . . And we understand that Caroline Long had a pretty good time last Aveek-end too. Teence, Tom, Lucy Harvey, Bob by Jean and PHYLLIS (at last) are going over to "Wake Forest this Aveek-end. . . . Tuck and RodAvell plan another trip to Warrenton. Could the ulterior motive involve Butner ? . . . Peete plans to go over to the Hill to see 47 play his last game (against U. S. C.) before go ing to Schuyler. * # The Day After Forever seems to be gaining popularity. It is as its title suggests, SAveet and dreamy, and Bing Crosby’s record (Avith It Coidd Happen to You) is Avonderful! If you’ve passed through first floor West Wing lately, you’A'e no doubt heard Together (with It Had to Be You) by Dick Ilaymes being played Avith a background of coo’s and. sighs—remind you of someone, Amie ? Competitive boAvling betAveen the Sigma’s and the Mu’s Avill be played every Wednesday after noon. Special alleys Avill be re served for the teams. BoAA'ling is a major sport again this year. The Orchesis creative dance group held an organizational meet ing Tuesday, October 24. Girls Avho are interested in becoming members are asked to gWe their names to Mrs. Guess. Like Poetry? NONSENSE VERSES I’d rather have fingers than toes: I’d rather have eyes than a nose: xVnd as for my hair, I’m glad it’s all there. I’ll be aAvfully sad wdien it goes! I Avish that my room had a floor; I don’t so much care for a door. But this Avalking around Without touching the ground Is getting to be quite a bore! Gilett Burgess. Seems that eA'eryone saw “Tavo Girls and a Sailor” for the fourth or fifth time lately—could be Avhy Sweet and Lovely has regained its place in the top brackets of Saint Alarv’s fa\'orites. I’m Making Believe Avill appeal to all those Avho haA'e to “make be- lieA'e” for the duration. ^Don’t Take Your Love From Me, by Harry James or Alvino Ray is appealing, to say the least. Charlie Barnet’s I’ll Remember April is on the other side. Dig Me Blues made quite a hit at the Girl-Break. You utterbugs Avill especially like it. And Her Tears Flowed Like Wine by Stan Kenton tells the sad story of a “tear jerker”—it’s really good! A similar one is on the other side, it’s How Many Hearts Have You Broken? Miss Felicia Coffin, represent ing the World Student Service Fund, spoke in assembly October 31. Jane Peete Avas elected vice- president of the Doctors’ Daugh ters’ Club and Nancy Mercer sec retary and treasurer at a meeting held this Aveek. Aly feet they haul me ’round the school: They hoist me up the stairs: I only have to steer them and They ride me eA'eryAvheres. Incidentally, the number eight song Avas Always; if you saAv “Christmas Holiday” Avith Deanna Durbin you’ll remember that one— you probably Avill anyAvay. The Trolley Song and Dance With the Dolly are quite Avelcome as breaks in the long line of sentimental ballads; they are rated high on the Hit Parade too, but the number one song is still I’ll Walk Alone (theme song of a lot of us, n’est-ce pasf). Moment of Madness and Time Waits for No One by Helen Forrest make a good listening pair for pick ups; it’s a Decca record. Let Me Love You Tonight AA'as Frank Sinatra’s number nine hit on the Hit Parade Saturday night. Plenty good, if you ask us. The folloAV up. on the next program (the Pet Alilk one beginning at 0:45) Avas, oddly enough, Lore Me To night. (Decca recording of Let Me Love You Tonight and tt7(0 Dat Up Dere? by Woody Herman is all right.) Old pieces are ahvavs coming back; I Can’t Get Started With You (recording by Bunny Burgen) is the present leader in this field. In spite of all the good, poignant or catchy songs of today Ave are be ginning to bring out tAvo favorites AA’hich have been on cold storage for a Avhile—no, not Night and Day or Begin the Beguine iioav, but White Christmas and I’ll Be Home for Christmas (Avouldn’t that really be Avonderful).
